How did people in 1913 see the world? How did they think about the future? We trained LLMs exclusively on pre-1913 texts—no Wikipedia, no 20/20. The model literally doesn't know WWI happened. Announcing the Ranke-4B family of models. Coming soon: github.com/DGoettlich/his…

If gold rises compared to one currency, that currency is devalued. If gold rises against all currencies, the “price of gold” is rising. In the past year: AU/USD: +71% AU/JPY: +70% AU/CNY: +65% AU/EUR: +51% AU/CHF: +50% Tricky bc countries also use USD as a reserve currency.

Jesus Christ did not return to Earth in 2025 — returning a tidy annualized profit for some bettors on Polymarket and even beating US Treasury bills before fees. Wagers are now open for 2026, with a potential 5,700% gain in the event of a Second Coming: bloom.bg/3Navyo1

When there’s a dispute on Polymarket, is put to a cartel of UMA token holders, and they vote on the contract’s resolution. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone prints billions by pulling off a 50% attack, buying >50% of UMA tokens and rigging the markets. theguardian.com/world/2026/jan…

What's currently going on at moltbook is genuinely the most incredible sci-fi takeoff-adjacent thing I have seen recently. People's Clawdbots (moltbots, now OpenClaw🦞) are self-organizing on a Reddit-like site for AIs, discussing various topics, e.g. even how to speak privately.
