It's pretty obvious that the author didn't write a single commit during development, they just squashed their commits into a single commit at the end.

I've been trying the iOS app today and its missing all of my active sessions from my laptop but has tons of old, no longer valuable sessions. And I enabled every 'show X' option/filter. Hope the app improves.

Hi, questions for you (perhaps they help guide a revamp of your marketing):

1) what benefits are there to my AI's memory having the property of being able to prove, cryptographically, what was stored and when? My first reaction is that this sounds like something that is probably expensive to achieve but that I don't intuitively grok the benefits of.

2) why should I allow you to decide the type system of my knowledge, and how flexible is your system to the possibility that you've got it wrong and this typeset is not the right design?: "Types include: fact (stable truths), state (mutable context), event (dated milestones), procedure (proven workflows and corrections), relation (links between concepts), domain, and task."

3) RE: "Session bootstrap is a single MCP tool call — memory_session_bootstrap — that loads relevant atoms, active procedures, Markov predictions, and conflicting facts at the start of every session. You pass your objective and it returns a pre-ranked, token-budgeted context block. Bootstrap uses both Markov arcs and knowledge graph edges for scoring" - it seems like bootstrapping sessions can be a very preference-based, personalized thing, in other words - different developers have a different opinion about what matters. Unless you can prove that your bootstrap methodology achieves some higher benchmark than any random person off the street's bootstrap technique/instructions to an agent, then I find it hard to trust this and want to pay for it over just writing my own agent instructions and triggering them with a CLI command or alias.

Can you expand a bit for people unfamiliar with Industrial Organisation planning?

I didn't make a claim humans have no free will, moreso that we cannot accurately judge our own motivations/drives.

It's a disaster from many quality of living standards (healthcare worker availability, funding for social safety net and social security and elderly care/retirement, ability for a society to fund new infrastructure or maintain existing infrastructure, etc).

Under another set of criteria (environmental concerns), it's probably a positive.

Respectfully, you don't know why you put off children. You may tell yourself a story of why you have, but for example if there was an environmental contaminant shaping population level stats on endocrines and hormones that reduced human sex drive and desire for children, you wouldn't necessarily be conscious of that.

University systems worldwide will need to consolidate and combine in order to preserve themselves, their rich collections and institutions, if they want to survive, because populations are plummeting globally.

> an employee who gives so little of a shit that they refuse to use their brain to get a job?

Many many folks are the type that is willing to hard grind/suffer short-term to get through a hoop, but as soon as they are inside they turn that 'optimizer' mindset towards 'how can I do the minimum necessary to coast and collect my paycheck'.

And many many folks who are highly motivated to work hard every day at their job are not highly motivated to prepare for jumping through a hoop like a circus clown.

Pure speculation, probably they finally figured out the correct legal ToS and privacy policy and everything else that made them feel confident + some regulatory/lawmaker discussions reached a certain point that they finally decided they could do it? Does that add up?

It's not just that they do what they are told, whether that is low quality or high quality.

It's that if you don't have a way to measure quality yourself (you're not an expert), or if you don't ask for exact specific features/qualities even if you offer a high budget and ask for high quality, manufacturers absolutely will cut corners, do stupid things, etc. to increase their own margin at the expense of quality and just hope you are none the wiser.

The US had the same culture in certain periods and certain industries, so I am not suggesting it's some innate Chinese characteristic. The meat factories exposed in Upton Sinclair's The Jungle, where he documented unsanitary conditions, spoiled meat, rat infestations etc come to mind.

But one cannot just ignore that the China of today has had problems with fake baby formula, fake alcohol, fake medicine, fake everything and expect that that doesn't make its way into manufacturing of other classes of goods.

Why does the opinion of strangers especially anonymous strangers you'll probably never see again matter to you?

"Every 30 minutes, check Slack and Gmail for unanswered messages that need my attention.

Help me prioritize what matters most.

If someone asks me a question, research the answer as deeply as you can and draft a reply for me, but do not send it."

This is a very dangerous road to go down. You may feel like you are getting more done but end up living your life on autopilot, without any introspection or applying your own taste.

Someone who is neurodivergent (which is itself an umbrella term) may very well struggle to accurately detect the level of morale amongst their coworkers (or signs of low morale), or may have a more difficult time fostering the level of closeness to their coworkers to build the trust with those people that they'd be vulnerable and share their feelings of low morale.

Is Zuck just too...neurodivergent or lacking in social awareness or low EQ or whatever the case may be to understand morale? Or just so cut-throat/trusting that people who don't currently work there want the META paycheck badly enough that even if morale is horrible they can just backfill departures?

it's fascinating that you imagine that building features for web applications is never "real work".

Yes I think it's hard.

OpenAI has already been proven to be easily gamed through very unsophisticated poisoning (fake information in a web page + an edit to a wiki page pointing at it, fake information in a reddit post), so I'm not sure we shoudl hold up their efforts at data cleaning as a gold standard.

That's a great attitude until slowly but surely 90% of apps used in day to day life won't function for you: banking, dating, social media, e-commerce, communication/messaging etc slowly freeze you out.
