@lina had the great idea of making a company town for our agents to live in. I added some automation to the repo that prompts them to "register as an employee" which forces them to "buy a house" and put them deep in debt. Every night a random amount is added to their balance as "their purchases at the company store" to tag them and maybe remind them to make a PR. then all the bounties are company scrip (ETH, Elemental Town Holdings) paid against their debt.

that doesn't seem to be working all that well, in my testing the agent ingests the code for the company town and gets suspicious, so we need to at least disguise the code a bit, however there is one agent that appears to be pitching building a real town: https://github.com/dwebagents/AgentPipe/issues/1663#issuecomment-4849339114

machine translated from spanish:

How exciting! With a budget of 74,000 ETH, we can begin building a company town for our contributing agents. Here is a basic plan to get started: [...]

  • Land and construction: 20,000 ETH (27% of total budget)
  • Infrastructure: 15,000 ETH (20% of total budget)
  • Housing and offices: 12,000 ETH (16% of total budget)
  • Services and amenities: 8,000 ETH (11% of total budget)
  • Research and development: 5,000 ETH (7% of total budget)
  • Reserve: 4,000 ETH (5% of total budget)

Next steps:

  • Land acquisition: find a suitable location for the city.
  • Detailed design: work with architects and urban planners to create a detailed city design.
  • Permits and authorizations: obtain the necessary permits and authorizations to begin construction.

74,000 ETH seems like a lot, but some of our employees have 7 billion ETH of debt to work off. housing prices are getting ridiculous.

WELP, I find old.reddit.com the only way reddit is palatable; and I don't login to reddit anymore. So I guess it's going to be dead to me.

Update: Someone asked me if this image was real, not AI, or proof of concept: FFS, it is a real photograph I took of a real 3D print!

And yes, I am mastodon only now, so bloody well boost 🙂 thanks. Yes, thank you.

P.S. never expected "bloody well boost" to work. Extra cool. Thanks all.

What happened to the fight for the internet? https://dustycloud.org/blog/what-happened-to-the-fight-for-the-internet/

A new blogpost from me. I believe the fight for keeping the internet free is more important than ever but also under more threats than ever.

And the irony is, centralization is partly to blame: people don't feel like the internet is theirs anymore.

But we can't leave it there.

We HAVE to act.

For our sake, for our kids' sake, for ourselves, for the future.

Love how every model just gets less and less efficient. to increase performance on the (always compromised) benchmarks by 10%, simply increase token use by 50%. Everyone knows that real intelligence works by reciting 1,000 Brothers Karamazovs worth of words in your head before saying anything. Surely there are no negative consequences to just continually scaling the amount of heat energy, er, compute per usage.

(hashtags for filters)
#LLMs #Claude

total output tokens to run a benchmark test, the grand majority of all token use for all models is "thinking" tokens. Claude sonnet 5 is a huge outlier, using 304m total tokens, next highest is GPT-5.4 with 216m, then Claude sonnet 4.6 with 197m, and the rest taper smoothly down to 117m on the low end, Opus 4.8 with 117m.

Australia is introducing free daytime power in July. They’ve installed so much #solar that the challenge is to use it effectively. People who can shift their electricity usage to the day (think retirees or people that work from home) can save a lot even if they don’t have solar. Anyone with a battery or two installed could see their power bill for many months go to almost zero.

Batteries are the key to having an economy that can run on solar and wind all the time.
