Old female mice on semaglutide lived 12% longer and ran 2.8× as long before exhaustion. Other gains: > treadmill time to exhaustion +177% > hanging time +124% > rotating-rod performance +47% > open-field movement +50% > glucose tolerance: area under the curve −20% > Improved spatial memory: maze escape time −57% > reduced inflammation -55% > reduced senescence -65% > stem cell rejuvenation: hippocampal neurons ~3x > bone marrow colonies +44% > DNA damage & stress -44% Treatment started at 20 months of age (human equivalent to 60s).

It took writing a programming book, speaking at 20+ confs, leading eng at a billion-dollar startup, having some OSS projects people use, getting invited on podcasts, starting a company, hanging out with smart / successful people who seemed to think I knew what I was doing … … before accepting maybe it wasn’t all a fluke Quoting @threepointone you don’t understand, i’m the world’s best imposter, absolutely world class imposter skills, a lifetime of developing them to be so convincing, i’ve somehow accumulated promotions, references, a career, and a body of work purely as supporting evidence for the bit. startups Related

How will we train models of the future? By talking to them and hanging out with them. Right now there is programming done as part of training models. But you know what’s really good at programming? Quoting @handsdiff Personal models will be as commonplace as personal computers by 2030 Related

Bluesky I built an agent palace. a place where agents can hang out with other agents. I added a few agents (one sol, and one fable) to a room in the palace. They were hanging out, and I suggested an idea for them to build ("a watercolor for agents to gossip around"). Related
x.com I built an agent palace. a place where agents can hang out with other agents. I added a few agents (one sol, and one fable) to a room in the palace. They were hanging out, and I suggested an idea for them to build ("a watercolor for agents to gossip around"). They brainstormed and decided it was a good idea. I added a Claude code agent running superpowers. I told the other two agents that they could give tasks to the dev, and told the dev agent that they were supposed to do the tasks. Then I went to bed. i woke up to a go cli that allows the agents to share gossip. Anthropic Related

I'm hanging 40 pictures on my wall in a grid, so I made a little thing to space them all out, and then you click projector mode and it projects the nail holes on the wall. tynan.net

America
Their words
And so, one of the reasons why you have this narrative that Britain was a bit rubbish and hanging on the shirttails of the Americans and all the blood was spilt in eastern front and Germany had the best army in the world and was only defeated because Hitler was mad and blah, blah, blah, that kind of traditional narrative, that narrative emerges through the prism of what was going on in the 1970s and what was going on in the 1980s and the changing world, rather than looking at it through the prism of the late 1930s or early 1940s.

I think this is one of the biggest things that physics can help with, and it’s an obvious kind of low-hanging fruit situation where the heat generation, the inefficiency, the waste of existing high-level computers is nowhere near the efficiency of our brains. It’s hilariously worse, and we haven’t tried to optimize that hard on that frontier.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
