ChatGPT and I have a multi-month conversation going about all my running problems. Was very tempted to do glute bridges on the side of the trail yesterday. Had a snooze instead. This seems more sensible. Physios/PTs are going to have to focus on hands-on work.

Confirmed that Codex with GPT-5.5 High is pretty rubbish at doing ESP IDF projects. Got there in the end but it was like pulling teeth. I now have a very nice point-to-point Zigbee button/display combo with no need for a HA server or separate coordinator. Multiple uses.

Based on the state of most gates, there seems to be a distinct lack of DIY skills amongst Ireland's farmers. 50% of gates held on with blue baler twine? Are angle grinders and welders not standard kit? Also "The Never Sag Gate" must be a market opportunity.

When I struggle to structure my thoughts about what's happening I turn to writing. Today about the recent US Anthropic ban news, what it says about power and dependency, and what it should mean for Europeans and citizens of the world. It's a long one. lucumr.pocoo.org/2026/6/13/aโ€ฆ

Flashbacks to doing my Masters in DSP. Matlab was so much more approachable than Mathematica. I know I know, apples/oranges etc.

Wow, reading the interaction between @MistralAI and @GergelyOrosz , I'm now even more convinced we are completely effed in AI in Europe. I'm sure they do a great charcuterie board at lunch tho. Strong OpenTV Paris circa 1997 vibes. Uncensored FTed OSS Chinese models FTW?

According to Grok, Andrej Karpathy is an EB-1 extraordinary ability green card recipient, not a US citizen. Thus under these new restrictions he is not permitted to use, or work on, Mythos 5 or Fable 5 as of 5:21pm tonight.
Replying to @AndrewCurran_
From the statement: 'The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ช๐˜จ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜ญ ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜ช๐˜ค ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฑ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜บ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด.

This road has caused more tourist nervous breakdowns and heart attacks than any other place in Ireland thanks to @googlemaps One car wide. Now imagine meeting a tractor. The look of terror on their faces as they drive through Bealach Oisรญn is entertaining as a runner.

Still never going to use Titan or Q.

Btw anybody with some Mistral insider info is understanding WTF the company is doing? They are under delivering so much that there must be a hard reason, either politics, terrible management, total lack of GPU compared to Chinese players, or what?

One day we will have the equivalent of the gpu compute Azure has in an iPhone and this regulation will seem comical to our children.

AI is amazing but it's not โ€œmagic,โ€ itโ€™s just linear algebra, calculus, and statistics finally hitting the gym with enough data and compute.

In 1999 the Power Mac G4 passed 1 gigaflop of computing power, so it briefly had Cold War era export controls applied to it. Apple Vision Pro has 3600 gigaflopsโ€ฆ newsletter.pessimistsarchiveโ€ฆ

This is going to have an opposite effect that the decels want. It's a huge open source AI accelerant, an accelerant for corporations, and enterprises Now it's a real race. You either make your own AI infrastructure or you don't have a seat at the table

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.
