Most apps that don't work without confidentiality though. E.g. Tinder doesn't work if swipes are public. And the big opportunity in the decentralized space is that confidentiality automatically brings privacy, because the user owns the data. So if decentralized confidential apps win, then privacy wins too.

I've been thinking about this recently and Jesus is my favorite agentic sage. cc @garrett I'm curious about your choice of Churchill and Feynman. Any book recommendations?

ARC-AGI contains logical reasoning tasks that are easy for humans, but difficult for LLMs. The human level baseline for v2 is around 60%, so 16% by Grok is pretty bad

News from Hungary: Orban tried to ban annual the Budapest Pride and it massively backfired. So many people turned out in protest that it was the largest Budapest Pride ever by a mile 🏳️‍🌈 The background is that elections are next year and Orban is trailing the opposition candidate, Peter Magyar, in the polls. A significant part of the electorate needed to win elections is homophobic and banning Pride was a trap set for Magyar to portray him as anti family if he takes up the issue. Magyar didn't take the bait and stayed away, but the mayor of Budapest stood up and Orban dared not use force to suppress the march. Photos: Mohos Márton / 24.hu

When I type "h^2 = " into the MacOS Notes or TextEdit app it autocompletes it to "h^2 =3.600 mins²". I don't want this feature. Anyone knows how can I turn it off? I've tried disabling Apple Intelligence and every feature under input sources, but no luck.

Thoughts on US politics from someone who grew up in a similar system (Hungary): - domestic policy bill looks like T is gearing up for a new term, not a 2nd term president pushing through hard reforms - strongman pushing out independent minded oligarchs is a common theme in these regimes, but it usually takes longer to consolidate power. Elon just gave T a freebie on that. - talking with pro Tump techies is sometimes as surreal as trying to convince hippies that communism is a bad idea. Trump naivete syndrome should be a thing

It’s not so much that I don’t believe in death, but that my experience is unity with the universe and living this experience makes the question of death moot.

Hmm I assume outsized eastern declines are based on negative migration assumptions, but that’s already reverting in Poland & Romania and is expected to continue as those countries get richer
