  • Lol the gizmodo article about the preview of mythos has this incredible openly line:

    If Anthropic is kind of like a kid at a Halloween party with a bowl full of spaghetti, telling its blindfolded friends the spaghetti is brains, European cyber agency leaders are like kids who are mad that they still haven’t gotten to stick their fingers in the brain bowl

    Anthropic in particular seems to use “we’re scared of what we can do” as their marketing strategy. So maybe this unauthorized use is real, or maybe it’s just more PR.

    Seasons 3-8 are generally considered “golden age” simpsons. Theres a lull for a few seasons where it gets very patchy, then it kinda enters a long silver age where episodes are fairly consistently good, with few poor ones and even fewer universally agreed upon greats.

    Many fans completely ignore 9+. Others argue where sliver age begins.

    The ratings only show the golden age and then slowly declining popularity, because popularity is only ever a loose proxy for quality.








  • I do think it’s a bad idea, even as someone who saves sex for committed relationships.

    • A lifelong commitment to a potentially disappointing physical relationship doesn’t seem like a great plan.
    • Before sex, there’s a lot of incentive to present your best self. Afterwards people are a more comfortable presenting more of who they are.
    • You learn a lot about someone’s priorities, self-control, receprocity, hang ups, etc.

    But if it works for you, don’t let others talk you out of it.
