News from Hungary: Orban tried to ban annual the Budapest Pride and it massively backfired. So many people turned out in protest that it was the largest Budapest Pride ever by a mile 🏳️‍🌈 The background is that elections are next year and Orban is trailing the opposition candidate, Peter Magyar, in the polls. A significant part of the electorate needed to win elections is homophobic and banning Pride was a trap set for Magyar to portray him as anti family if he takes up the issue. Magyar didn't take the bait and stayed away, but the mayor of Budapest stood up and Orban dared not use force to suppress the march. Photos: Mohos Márton / 24.hu

When I type "h^2 = " into the MacOS Notes or TextEdit app it autocompletes it to "h^2 =3.600 mins²". I don't want this feature. Anyone knows how can I turn it off? I've tried disabling Apple Intelligence and every feature under input sources, but no luck.

Thoughts on US politics from someone who grew up in a similar system (Hungary): - domestic policy bill looks like T is gearing up for a new term, not a 2nd term president pushing through hard reforms - strongman pushing out independent minded oligarchs is a common theme in these regimes, but it usually takes longer to consolidate power. Elon just gave T a freebie on that. - talking with pro Tump techies is sometimes as surreal as trying to convince hippies that communism is a bad idea. Trump naivete syndrome should be a thing

It’s not so much that I don’t believe in death, but that my experience is unity with the universe and living this experience makes the question of death moot.

While we're on office chairs, I've come to like these dynamic stools a lot: https://www.aeris.de/en/products/aeris-swopper-wollmischung-capture-gruen Looks like something out of South Park, but the older I get the less I can sit in one place, and the constant movement on the stool keeps my lower back from stiffening.

ARC-AGI-2 is the AI benchmark to watch. It consists of logic puzzles that are simple for humans, but difficult for current frontier models. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWHezX43I-4

There is no master plan, the fate of the world rests on the instincts of Donald Trump, one of the greatest populist politicians ever, and a man whose business success is grounded in weaseling out of failures. Buckle up people! https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/09/us/politics/trump-tariff-pause-be-cool.html
