J’accuse "we need a materially based cult of the body to link life of the mind and intellectual achievement with love and encourage the joy of sex and childbirth to get whites invested in—" Just say "Western Shinto". It's cleaner.

Foxford Comics I don't know if you meant this as a joke, but America is quite literally a Shinto nation that just doesn't admit it, and I will absolutely talk anyone's ear off defending this. America is a land of millions of gods, living spirits, ghosts from a thousand battles, and

"Sure, my entire career is whining about the Japanese nature of content until Japan changes it but have you considered that asking me to stop doing that makes you... INCESTUOUS?"

Today we mark a sad but inevitable milestone as 3G is finally switched off in Japan. Japan was the first country to get widespread mobile data in the '90s, and the fun+unique phones it enabled are a core part of national memory now. Here's Docomo's beautiful shutoff video.

ignoring the DEEPLY messed up nature of the dialogue here, why the hell is Japan a high school student when America is a balding middle aged man 🤨

Thinking about how there’s eventually going to be an ultra-cheap chip with a basic LLM’s weights etched into it and tons of e-waste manufacturers are going to ship it + a small prompt in 50 bytes of ROM instead of actual firmware. Man made horrors, etc.

Realizing now that for the past 5 years I have literally always reflexively called her “Miss Frieren” when speaking English like an American Southerner referring to a friend’s grandmother.

Just put Gemma 4 through my ultimate benchmark: the Mom Test™. I asked mom to run it on her M4 mini in place of her usual local models for personal stuff and she also tried some heavy vibe-coding with it. Her verdict: 6 hours of constant use later and she sent me this:

terminally onλine εngineer Jennifer Aun I know we all like to blame NYT and Kara Swisher and whatever for muddying perceptions, but an underrated element in tech’s fall from grace was the stealth replacement of people like Aaron Swartz and John Carmack with sociopaths pretending to be those people in the early ‘10s.

The discourse over the past few days has made me conclude that I should start aggressively Shintoposting more if there's so much interest in it in the West. Maybe I should make a separate account for it or something.
