NEW: The FBI arrested James Cody Bryant, 30, of Bellingham, WA today for conspiracy to murder in the Tumbler Ridge school massacre, which killed 8, including five children. Both Bryant and shooter Jesse Van Rootselaar identified as transgender women, according to police and federal officials. Per the FBI complaint, over six months on Discord Bryant: - Agreed to record and post the shooter's livestream - Gave tactical advice: "Wide open spaces means numbers." - Sent money for the shoes worn in the attack and for a lighter for the explosive device - Promised not to "snitch": "I know I can like, save lives I guess but idk." Photos in the complaint show a trans flag sticker on the shooter's shotgun, posed in front of a trans flag, and a rifle silencer in trans flag colors. When the shooter sent Bryant a photo of the stickers, Bryant replied: "love the stickers." Minutes before the school attack, the shooter wrote: "I'm going now... I shot them." Bryant: "Watching now." The trail ran across other platforms too: - Roblox: after the attack, it removed the shooter's account, which was used to build a mall massacre simulation - ChatGPT: OpenAI flagged and banned the shooter's account in June 2025 and never called police. British Columbia is now suing. Bryant faces up to life in prison.

do you ever take a step back and ask like the most absolutely basic question "is there a SINGLE thing in my life that is meaningfully more efficient due to AI, outside of writing code" Airbnb. Shit show. Uber. Shit show. Doordash. Worse than it was. Average employee: cooked. Power: doesn't work. Water: no idea if it's poisoned, govt is corrupt. Airlines: frozen for months at a time due to govt shut downs. Gasoline: mooning bc (checks notes) in a stalemated war w a 3rd world country Even GTA 6 apparently couldn't be accelerated with AI and took years to build. is there a single video game you actually play that's built entirely with AI? it seems like all the demos are just dudes making some shitty vaporware game nobody plays and the posts are like "yo I spent only $1,800 in tokens to make some dogshit that demos well for clout" and they have a $500k marketing subsidy from a lab. "I've been lucky enough to use Astra for 3 months and I finally can talk about it." okay, what the fuck did you ship? yes, you shipped nothing other than more AI analytics dashboards about how many tokens you're burning and all the AI influencers look like Twinks. like, they get the tokens bc they're in some weirdos polycule or burning man camp or whatever kinkfest in an SF sauna that moves the needle that's why this whole "Pace the frontier" thing is so retarded. Pace what exactly. Productivity is at ONE POINT FOUR PERCENT ANNUALIZED. THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ IS CLOSED. where is Anduril? where is the killer robot? if it's so dangerous can't you send it to a fcking war zone and win? oh. turns out it's not dangerous and you're just mentally ill. cool. but Trump says it can't stop. it won't stop. bc the debt and productivity situation is so fcked that AI is the ONLY REASONABLE WAY WE AVOID COMPLETE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE. but once you understand how utterly insane that all is - you see how bullish it is. AI literally doesn't fucking work. Subagents are a meme bc agents break down at 2 orders of abstractions and start vomiting technical debt and overengineered garbage. Everyone is working 2x as much to manage agents, not going for a walk voice prompting. do you have any idea how much money needs to be invested to move productivity from 1.4% to 4%? ALL THE MONEY. So that's the joke. Dario says we need to slow down. And what, see productivity at 0%? So it's either Trumplandia where we invest all the money in an insane hail mary that will probably not work. Or Dario world where we managed the inevitable collapse with an AI powered global government. Pick your poison. Either way the Data Centers won't default.
