Ansgar's Ramblings

Gm Starbase! Today is going to be my first ever time watching a rocket launch in-person - looks like I picked a good one! https://x.com/spacex/status/1845424870655398102
The timing on this is ridiculous - my first ever larger size polymarket bet, and that just so happens to be seconds before someone comes in with almost $1M to shift that market 4% in the other direction, in an (unsuccessful) attempt to win a secondary market…

absurd - Microsoft makes it impossible to disable the "Email a code" login option. Someone keeps trying to guess this (6 digit) code for my account. At this rate they have a ~1% brute force chance per year...
The ability for countries to make credible commitments to investors across changes in government is good, actually.

If you are a rationalist and not willing to "question" democracy, you are not a rationalist.

Goodbye SF, I’ll be back!
TIL about the term "neuro-symbolic AI". Always good to have a term to put to an interesting concept.

Always a bit alien to me to see so many laptops in a lecture setting. During my 4 undergrad years (maths, then econ) I didn't even own a laptop. Only bought one (a used MacBook) when switching over to CS for my master's, and even then mainly for homework after class.

When Tesla first released the Model 3, I remember visiting California and being excited the few times during the trip I spotted one. Then on my next visit a year later, it felt like they were ubiquitous.
I get the same feeling about Waymo in SF now. Last year, it was exciting to spot one. Now they are everywhere!

PODs are the future.

Exciting to see this collaboration between Perplexity and Polymarket. This year (and obviously the US election cycle) really seems to be the year of prediction markets reaching critical mass!

I’ve seen a few people on here with their own personal channels. So I’ll give it a try as well.
Created /ansgar, and will set my casts there to "channel followers only". That way it’s truly opt-in and I won’t have to worry about spamming people’s feeds.
See you over there (maybe)!
