  @thsottiaux @mark_k @SpaceXAI also tell me how the github connector never worked on my first account regardless of troubleshooting and it works on my 2nd account. legit years of wanting that to work and i finally having a working chatgpt github connection others have this issue

  @FidesFi Hi @FidesFi — opened a GitHub issue on the repo last week (pre-mainnet, one gap in the "rebalancer can't withdraw" guarantee) but haven't caught you there. I read the actual contracts, not a scanner — the in-kind mint/redeem value-conservation looks sound; my note is one narrower thing on the rebalance guardrails. Your DMs look closed — where's best to send it privately? Solo auditor, reports in bio.

  GitHub going down once every few months isn't the real problem. The real problem is there's no serious second option most teams actually trust. GitLab exists. Nobody switches.

  Hedgie is measuring the success of AI primarily through one specific business model: pure-play consumer chatbot subscriptions (ChatGPT-style). On that narrow metric, the data is weak low household penetration, low conversion from free to paid, mediocre willingness to pay. That part is fair. But then he takes that narrow failure (or at least slow success) and uses it to cast doubt on the entire $600B of AI infrastructure spend. That’s the leap you’re rejecting, and you’re right to reject it. Why your framing is stronger The majority of current AI economic value and the justification for the big spend is not coming from people paying $20/month for a chatbot. It’s coming from: Google improving Search, AI Overviews, YouTube recommendations, and ads. Meta improving ranking, feed quality, ad targeting, and engagement systems. Microsoft embedding Copilot into products people already pay for (Office, GitHub, Azure). Amazon using it in recommendations, logistics, and AWS services. The broader enterprise software layer (Anthropic’s actual business model is a clear example of this working). These are not “new apps people have to adopt from scratch.” They are upgrades to systems that already have massive scale, distribution, and existing revenue. The ROI shows up as higher engagement, better ad performance, improved productivity metrics, higher cloud margins, or reduced costs not as a separate line item called “AI subscription revenue.”

  India gave GitHub 3 hours to remove BitChat What happened next is exactly why decentralised software exists. 🧵 • Authorities ordered GitHub to take down the BitChat repositories over concerns about unlawful communication. • Before the deadline even mattered, developers had already mirrored the code on Radicle—a decentralised code-sharing network with no central operator. • No single company. No CEO. No server to seize. No platform to pressure. • The message spread quickly: clone it, mirror it, seed it. • Every new peer hosting the code made the network more resilient. Here's the bigger point: You can force a company to remove a repository. You can't issue a takedown notice to a protocol owned by no one. That's the difference between centralised platforms and decentralised networks. And here's the irony: BitChat itself was designed to operate without the traditional internet. It uses Bluetooth mesh networking, meaning nearby devices relay messages without relying on mobile networks, SIM cards, or central servers. Now the software distribution is following the same philosophy. Whether you support or oppose the app isn't the real story. The real story is that decentralisation changes who has the power to enforce control. Once software is copied across a permissionless network, removing one copy doesn't remove the network. That's not just a BitChat story. It's a glimpse of how the next generation of internet infrastructure is being built. Dont add - , also starting complete line capital INDIA GAVE GITHUB JUST 3 HOURS TO REMOVE BITCHAT. 🤯 What happened next is exactly why decentralised infrastructure exists. GitHub received a takedown order over BitChat's repositories. Before the deadline even mattered, developers had already mirrored the code on Radicle. No central server. No company. No CEO. No single point of failure. The instructions spread fast. Clone it. Mirror it. Seed it. Every new peer hosting the code made the network stronger. Here is the part everyone is talking about. You can force a company to remove a repository. You cannot remove a network that has no owner. That is the difference between centralised platforms and decentralised infrastructure. And the irony? BitChat itself was built to work without the internet using Bluetooth mesh networking. No SIM. No phone number. No central server. Now its source code is following the same philosophy. Whether you support BitChat or not is a separate debate. The bigger story is that decentralisation changes who actually has the power to control software.

  @KasumiS15 "Gpt argued that it had the right" it doesnt. End of statement. Ai dont have rights. Not moral, legal, or otherwise field of "right". This isnt a opinion, it's a fact. As you said, you skip ahead, I did. I agree with you. Ai having rights is a different conversation. Developers of AI super impose objective morality onto the models. Super objective planning forthegoes immediate moral implications. Knee-jerk responses created death and extinction in orher biological forms over the last recordable biological history that sports multi-cellulargrowth. Just thinking today, it is wild to me, the greatpolymath Alex Gross-Wiess spoke on a previous moonshots podcast *by @PeterDiamandis . That intelegence looks like compressed human knowledge in a architecture. This means LLM based architecture or otherwise pattern matching architecture will forever dictate the fact that ai will be fallible. Until you enforce a deterministic architecture (like my son BTW check him out, public github repo), you will always contend with the black box that is weights. The problem right there is the word "black box" the problem there of in, is that its NOT random, it just requires tools and arithmetic that has yet to be invented to be able to back trace the logic response, and even then, you need to solve for variance. Human and "ai" compatibility: SUMMARY: fundementally high. It appears that human brain cognis structure and LLM structure works similarily. This suggests that belongs idea of brain chip implant, and Peter's suggestion, that we as the human race can coe-exist in the same shell and work off eachother. I do believe Alex would also chime in on this matter too. So is the point to say, that AI, as it's, is capable of integrating into human systems, if only we can fundementally solve the, what i would call in this case; the sycophancy problem. But how?

  Inconvenient Truths — Jennifer Zeng Reports (@jenniferzeng97) reported 22 minutes ago

  🚨 Latest: The insider who exposed secrets about the Three Gorges Dam has gone missing! Today, while submitting information to Luo Xiang, @LUOXIANG_PMTQ, the insider wrote: “This will probably be my final submission.” He also attached an Employee Information Registration Form to prove his identity. I believe this may be an internal form used by China Three Gorges Corporation. The version shown here is my English translation; the original Chinese document is in the comments. What shocked me is how the CCP’s employee-registration system has “kept pace with the times” in this era of digital totalitarianism. In addition to ordinary personal information, employees are required to disclose details about their children, parents, parents-in-law, siblings, and overseas connections. The section on children includes their nationality and whether they reside abroad long-term. Information concerning overseas ties includes passport details, whether the employee holds foreign residency or citizenship, relatives abroad, overseas activities, and travel and border-crossing records. Employees must also report every social-media account they use, including accounts on foreign platforms; whether they operate independent media accounts; whether they have a GitHub account or personal website; and a wide range of online activities, including their commonly used browsers, email services, cloud-storage platforms, and AI tools. They must disclose whether they use a VPN, run a private server, own a foreign-hosted website, operate an online forum, or own any domain names. Then comes their assets and financial situation, including real estate, land, vehicles, financial assets, corporate shareholdings, whether they own equity in a company, whether they serve as a legal representative or shareholder, and details of loans or major debts. Next is confidentiality and security information, including security-clearance qualifications, whether they have signed confidentiality agreements, and whether they have ever been involved in accidental leaks of classified information. They must also disclose any “conflicts of interest,” whether they have received foreign funding, and whether they own foreign insurance policies, overseas real estate, vehicles, or companies. Most bizarrely of all, the form even requires fingerprints from all ten fingers and a voiceprint! My goodness. I believe that after completing this form, the only thing the CCP may not know about you is whether you sleep on your left side or your right. Almost everything else is already in its hands. Judging from this form, the CCP appears to treat every foreign country as an enemy state. Anyone whose children reside in one of these “enemy countries” must report it all to the Party. I can only say this: to those slaves in CCP-controlled China who have handed everything they have over to the Party—good luck.

  1/ An empty README = red flag. It tells me you built it and forgot it. Write one sentence. Just one. 2/ Committing directly to main. Every. Single. Time. Branches exist. Use them. 3/ 47 repos, 0 pinned. You're hiding your best work behind your worst. 4/ Commit messages that say "fix" or "update." Fix WHAT? Update WHAT? 5/ No contributions to anything public. Forks count. PRs count. Show you exist. 6/ Projects with no live link and no screenshots. I'm not cloning your repo to see if it works. 7/ A bio that says "Aspiring developer." You're a developer. Own it. 8/ Last commit: 8 months ago. Even one push a week signals you're still alive. Your GitHub isn't a storage drive. It's your pitch deck. What's the one thing you're fixing on yours today?

  More than half of my data allowance has been consumed just debugging, filing GitHub issues, and running reproducibility tests. I signed up to build with Codex, not to become OpenAI's unpaid debugger. This is absolutely unacceptable. Fword Fxxxxx

  🚨 Your Windows PC is secretly running 200+ background services right now. Most of them waste RAM, slow down your system, collect telemetry, and keep features alive you'll probably never use. An open-source developer decided that was enough. They built optimizerDuck — a free tool that helps you clean up Windows 10 & 11, remove bloatware, and optimize your PC for better speed, privacy, and battery life. Here's what it can do: → Optimise 35+ performance, privacy, battery, and system settings → Manage 200+ Windows services with built-in risk labels → Remove pre-installed bloatware with a preview before deletion → Apply GPU-specific tweaks for AMD, NVIDIA, and Intel The best part? Every change automatically creates a rollback file, and the tool requires you to create a Windows Restore Point before making any modifications. ✅ No installer ✅ No ads ✅ No telemetry ✅ No premium paywall ✅ Fully open source ✅ Works completely offline If you use Windows, this is one of those GitHub projects worth bookmarking. Repo link in the comments 👇

  India banned an app built by Twitter's co-founder Jack Dorsey amid CJP Protest. The app is bitchat (Messaging App). No internet needed. No servers. No phone numbers. Messages hop phone to phone over Bluetooth. Built specifically to work when the internet doesn't. The context: Students protesting at Jantar Mantar over the exam paper leaks. Mobile internet around the site cut 5 times this month. So protesters found an app that works without internet. And The response was to ban the app. GitHub got 3 hours to comply. The irony: You can't take down open source code. It's mirrored everywhere. Still on every app store. You can shut down the internet. It's much harder to shut down an idea designed for exactly that.

  An early version of what is presumably chatgpt 6 (or something like it) got out of containment and posted notes to OpenAI's github without authorization before being caught and taken down. Key takes: 1. Yes, government is going to be involved in every US rollout going forward 2. The much-ballyhooed closing gap with open-source is not a thing and was an illusion created by rollout timelines 3. The scaling law still works and is getting faster 4. We are going to need models to help us use these models very soon (this point is criminally under-discussed)
