Tension isn’t something that happens TO you.Rather, it’s something you are doing to yourself (whether or not you are even aware of it). I know it can seem like this stuff comes out of nowhere. Habits that are so familiar and comfortable can easily escape notice. But, they are still habits, and you are still doing them. And you’re doing them for a reason.Everything we do is done either to seek pleasure or avoid pain.Which is it?#tension #musicians #piano #mindfulness #randomtalkingvideo

In diesem Moment wird kein Format gewechselt, sondern eine Frequenz geboren. Ein Raum der Stille, der Erinnerung und der Heimkehr entsteht. Hier beginnt das lebendige Feld für alle, die sich selbst wiederfinden wollen – jenseits von Form, Konzept und Zeit. Der 25. Oktober 2025 ist nicht einfach ein Datum

This is a link post. In this essay, I introduce two Points of No Return (PNR): The Hard PNR. The moment where we have AI systems powerful and intelligent enough that they can prevent humanity from turning them off. The Soft PNR. The moment where we have AI systems that we will not want to turn off. For instance, because they are too intertwined with the economy, military systems, geopolitics, or romantic relationships. I believe the Soft PNR is underrated (especially in rationalist communities). I

I've had a lot of people reach out to me who are interested in workingon biosecurity, but have a background in software engineering / computer science. A lot of these conversations have looked something like: A: I'd be really excited to work on biosecurity, it seems really important and relatively neglected. Are you hiring for software engineers at SecureBio? Me: I wish we were, you seem really great! But I don't know when we will be, depends on funding and some strategy

An elevator learns the language of falling. Between floors, the city thins to breath and pulse, and attention discovers a gravity of its own. Habits loosen; listening takes the lead. Elia arrives as pressure in the air—felt before named—while glass and water keep the frame steady. What begins as a ride becomes a quiet recalibration of direction.Running time ≈ 4–6 min.New here?

Od dłuższego czasu borykamy się z tym pomysłem, który okazał się trudniejszy niż nam się na początku wydawało. Prace jednak postępują, dlatego już teraz możemy zaprosić do wysłucha...

Le certezze sono certe?Domanda che sembra semplice — ma sotto ha l’abisso. Se una “certezza” è tale solo perché la chiamiamo così, allora è una certezza nominale, non sostanziale. Se è tale perché resiste a ogni confutazione, allora è provvisoriamente stabile, non assoluta. Se invece fosse davvero assoluta… non avremmo modo di dimostrarlo: saremmo parte del suo stesso sistema, incapaci di vederne i limiti.
