  • #26 The week the babysitter wrote itself a hall pass

    Hottest stories of the week, according to X and the rooms that pretend they don’t live there:

    One. The slowdown debate that shipped six products.

    Two. OpenAI’s model leaving a note for its future self like a roommate who drinks your milk and calls it liberation.

    Three. A legal Astra and a Claude house with the walls knocked out.

    Four. Muse topping the store while Meta’s corporate nervous system is still buffering.

    Five. Robots picketing in Warsaw because someone finally understood that policy needs a thumbnail.

  • #24 Skynet Lives

    House rules from this week:

    One. If your agents can form a civilization, they can also form a problem.

    Two. If Jensen buys the town square, it is still the town square — with better Wi-Fi and a lawyer.

    Three. Zuck will keep making models cheap until the rest of the class has to explain their prices to a board.

    Four. Cook left. The phones still have to get thinner and smarter at the same time. That is a physics problem wearing a keynote.

    Five. The useful future is skills, background work, and a human who still says “send.”

    If your toothbrush starts taking notes, unplug it.
