NecronomiCon now labels itself as “The International Conference and Festival of Weird Fiction, Art, and Academia”, no longer a Lovecraft con specifically. And that is fair; the next panel I’m going to is “weird Appalachiana.” But Lovecraft sure does seem to be still the anchor and common thread.

First NecronomiCon talk is on Theosophy. The panelists are going into all sorts of great stuff about the connections between Theosophy and thr scientific, pseudoscientific, intellectual, and political revolutions of the era. It’s an “introductory for newbies” panel but that’s me so I’m enjoying it. Related

When evaling models, we anchor on the median task. But this is like how devs estimate the median task accurately but underestimate the mean which tends to be ~2x estimated (thus "double your estimates"). This applies to models too—we optimize for time/cost on median tasks. But it's the tail tasks that determine a project's completion, and reliable models (like Fable and Opus) are the diff between success and failure. Work with models as collaborators, not tools. Go beyond pair-programming, where given a narrow spec, the tool just executes in minutes. Instead, explain your intent and what succ… Quoting @Steve_Yegge Fable is careful. None of the other models are careful. GPT-5.6 Sol, Opus, Kimi, Grok. You can compare them all day long on capabilities, and it doesn't matter, because in order to use a model for real production work, it must first and foremost be careful. That's the only dimension that matters to… Related

One of the most common naming issues I tend to see are generic placeholder names like Utils, Misc, or Helper. Names aren’t just passive labels. Names influence future behavior and perspective. A vague and imprecise name — like Utils — will attract code of those same qualities. Related

Their words
Americana traces the history of American-style Capitalism, reminding us the political economy is far more complex than the simple labels we tend to use. Reality is far messier, filled with externalities, complications and comprises then is predicted by academic theories.

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.
