The solutions to many of the challenges of our time are the same solutions to challenges in the past: slow down, find allies, put in the hard work, focus on fundamentals. Make the tent big but keep your circle of trust small. Diffuse leadership. Encourage initiative.

We're facing multiple crisises that cut across society in different ways. The pace of change is accelerating and people are desperate in a lot of different ways.

A pastor running for sheriff in Alamance County, North Carolina, says immigration enforcement should primarily be a federal responsibility. “We’re going to do our job, and our job is not to do what they’re doing, which is, right now, racial profiling.”

The history of stupidly-effective LLM guardrail jailbreaks is nearly indistinguishable from shit my kid would try 😋

The whole world used Python – one language. And as centralized data became the norm, they found level ground in the land of Shinar, and dwelt there.

And they said to one another “Come, let us assemble building materials and architects’ plans.”

Then they said “Come, let us build a city and a massive data center in a skyscraper, which will make the Burj Khalifa look like a toy; and let us come up with a fantastic brand, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.”

And the LORD came down to see the city and the data center, and He said, “Look, these people share a uniform technology, and all program in the same language; and they have started doing this, and they will be able to do anything they imagine.”

And the LORD said “Come, let us go down there and make Python 2 and Python 3 incompatible with each other.”

So the LORD scattered them from that place all over the world; and they stopped building the city and abandoned the enormous data center.

And that is how the LORD saved the human race from excessive centralization and groupthink; and therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the unitary programming language.

And from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
