Made a little CLI that just pipes my programming questions to GPT-3, so I now can ask it stuff when I'm in the command line!
LLMs are better than Stack Overflow now — I just ask it, and it gives me a comprehensive answer in one shot, right there in my terminal, in a couple secs.

Really becoming very heavily energy abundance-pilled. Large-scale helicopter tourism feels like it'd be a crazy luxury now, let alone in the 1960s. And yet (apparently) tickets for this service were $4.50 for adults, less than $40 in today's money.

TIL that SFO once had a popular helicopter service with destinations to Fisherman’s Wharf, Ferry Building, Oakland, Emeryville and Marin. At its peak it annually carried 320,000 passengers on more than 100 flights a day. https://t.co/KAToY6AQv9

The credible, close-call attempt to kill or maim Speaker Nancy Pelosi for a second time, and the GOP response, signals how close the US is to the end of the road as a Democracy. It also tells us about what comes after the fall. 1/n

@theintercept I went through every single claim in the document, and every underlying document. And NOT A SINGLE CLAIM about coercion and content suppression holds. NOT ONE.

Class-based affirmative action will strike Americans as more fair than race-based policies.
But the real task should be to expand enrollment at elite colleges, so that admissions aren't such a vicious zero-sum game.

The fact that Donald Trump displayed some tactical flexibility about his ideological commitments in crunch time mattered a lot. The crew of maniacs he’s assembled tend to lack this quality.

Bolduc says he wouldn't have voted for COVID relief bills, including ones passed under Donald Trump.
