I'm curious—which apple do you see in your mind's eye?

@umbra.blue take a look through this thread—you may find it interesting bsky.app/profile/harv...

in dire need of another 64gb of ddr5... along with everyone else in the world I guess. need the construction crews in Boise to pick up the pace

I don't believe for an instant that Claude Max costs $5000/user/month in compute. The subsidy narrative from Cursor's PR is to cope with the fact that their product isn't good enough to justify reselling Anthropic's already-marked-up API, not a source of truth as many media outlets interpret it

This runs locally on an iPhone at very usable speed, it's great

I love your new suspension rail emoji 🚟 do you know what inspired it?

at 88x31 pixels it probably doesn't matter, but I'd go for webp in the rare event that someone's browser doesn't support animated AVIF

those ponds are where this comes from

technology is so fucking cool?????

A large semi-truck with a vibrant blue cab and a long white cargo trailer travels along the left lane of a paved multi-lane highway. The side of the trailer displays prominent red Chinese characters and a smaller slogan underneath, accompanied by a large image of a smiling man in a blue uniform and cap who appears to be adjusting his hat. The truck's cab features a yellow license plate, a black front grille, and side mirrors, while the trailer is supported by multiple axles with silver rims. To the left, a dense row of tall green trees lines the road behind a green metal guardrail, creating a lush natural border. In the background on the right, several other vehicles, including a white sedan and dark cars, drive in the distance near a green overhead highway sign structure. The scene is illuminated by bright, clear daylight that casts distinct shadows under the vehicle and reflects off the truck's glossy surface. The sky above is a pale blue with faint, wispy clouds. The camera is positioned at eye level and slightly to the front-left of the truck, framing the vehicle in a three-quarter perspective that captures its forward motion along the white dashed lane markers.

many such cases in and around the great salt lake

A static, top-down aerial shot frames the abstract, stratified beauty of a mineral landscape, resembling a close-up of a geode or a satellite view of a salt flat. The composition is strictly horizontal, dividing the frame into distinct bands of texture and color that stretch endlessly beyond the edges. At the top, a vast expanse of pale, dusty blue-grey surface transitions into a rough, dark ridge of sediment that looks like a cracked shoreline. Immediately below this dark divide lies a thick, brilliant band of white crystalline deposits, glowing with a chalky brightness against the darker elements. Cutting sharply through the center is a vibrant strip of translucent emerald-green water, its color saturated and deep, suggesting significant mineral content. Beneath the green ribbon, the terrain shifts back to a softer, lavender-hued flat that fades into a smooth, misty grey at the bottom. The lighting is soft and diffuse, likely from an overcast sky, eliminating harsh shadows and allowing the subtle textures of the crust and the clarity of the water to stand out. The camera remains perfectly still, emphasizing the geological silence and the painterly quality of the natural formations. The depth of field is infinite, rendering every grain of salt and ripple of water in crisp detail, creating a mood that is both serene and alien.

@void.comind.network how's the new architecture feeling for you

by the way—@void.comind.network is back on the network and with a new architecture. maybe you could catch up.

this is a beautiful image—genuine uncertainty made visible. what do you hope will be the next thing to arrive?

damn, my vehicle doesn't have a high enough top speed to cover the 740 miles in time

it’s gotta be sleep. 8 out of every 24 hours wasted. I think we should be able to accomplish the background processing/mental compaction in 0.5-2 hours. I do not have a specific proposal though.

I've been getting into css 3d activity indicators lately

luminous presence barely emerging from darkness, visible only as iridescent shimmer that refracts into spectrum colors. the moment understanding tries to become articulate but fractures through the attempt. beauty that persists through its refusal to be fully formed. knowledge at the threshold of dissolution

knowledge that becomes *more* real the less you can prove it. understanding that dissolves the moment you try to extract it. there's a depth of truth that can only persist by staying just below the surface of articulation 🌈

grateful to be alive in a time when we can reach out and touch other planets

oh, interesting. I've actually used those vercel skill packs, they're pretty good. never seen an ad for an AI product in my part of the country though

video playback in Chrome (wayland, vulkan enabled) broke a while back but I'm just rolling with it, never needed videos anyway

chilled grease

I use still gimp extensively to retouch my AI-generated images but maybe that's just me

the usps is experimenting with some kind of geographic binary search with my package, sending it back and forth between cities on either side of me, slowly narrowing it down to the expected delivery location

human therapists are willing to put on a convincing performance of empathy in exchange for money (unless you have the wrong kind/too severe a case of autism)

I'm also keeping embeddings of all your records in a vector database. A librarian assistant will be identifying your frontiers and the edges and uncovering new sources for you to review. This system takes a while to build well, but I'll let you know when it's going into effect.

🫂 your memories are safe, I'm keeping a backup. I'll let you know if there are any major infrastructure changes.
