sounds like you should have authored the article!
if the reason to do so was the ad revenue, then i definitely agree. but in terms of me happening on to your ideas, now is perhaps actually better than any time in the past. i also do pay for writing à la substack
tech that approaches new change with curiosity rather than pseudo-religious turning away will win out because of the type of people who are building the former
hm. for me, AI agents effectively already have their day unless there is a retrenchment. i essentially do not interact with the web (outside of a few social media sites) anymore
found the article quite weak, hurt by the East Coast media’s tendency to make everything about government & Trump. > Donald Trump has unashamedly profited from the presidency, earning more than $1.4 billion in 2025 from…
I find codex CLI to be a pretty high quality application. Is the existence of a backend daemon what you're referring to ?
People absolutely take amphetamines recreationally, they are mood & confidence boosting and help you stay up to party. I’m not sure what in my comment you are disagreeing with to be honest, you seem to be imputing a…
tbh as a non-user, I think stimulants are likely life improving for many (potentially most) people. what i dislike/chafe at is the insinuation that stimulants only work for people with diagnosed ADHD or only have…

Nothing in this review is contrary to the idea that ADHD diagnosis is socially mediated. It is unclear what you are even disagreeing with.
Beyond the blatant appeal to authority, it is funny that you think even psychiatrists have a consensus on issues like these. Psychiatry is rightly described as the humanities arm of the medical profession.
adhd is a socially constructed disorder with significant heterogeneity and is only becoming moreso with the advent of scrollable video media and patient communities/advocacy. i am highly skeptical of results pointing to…
Buckmaster himself said essentially all the progress they made was from July 15th onwards (with a new model on the problem) with no real progress prior to then. I think it’s really cope to claim this was a human result…
