A completely unhinged post from the head of Norway's oil fund: to hunt down the "leaders" of groups resisting AI implementation in companies and "remove" them

Nicolai Tangen in .

Al Isn't Optional Anymore-But Adoption Is Hard Every CEO sees Al as fundamental to future competitiveness. The surprise? Internal resistance is fierce. They described the pattern perfectly: one-third of people embrace it immediately, one-third adopt after seeing results, and the final third resist. The solution? Remove the leaders of the resistant groups. The message is clear: Al adoption is now a leadership capability test. > 1/10 Tell Muenzing and 1,462 others 66 comments 63 reposts

I saw this and had to check it wasn't faked or a spoof. Sadly, it is real.

Every time I think Trump has reached the nadir of decency and propriety, some hellish trapdoor opens, revealing a hitherto undiscovered sub-basement of obscenity and barbarity. ~AA

Pete Hegseth is urging members of the military to embrace GenAI.mil, a "secure generative AI platform for every member of the Department of War." I'm sure this will be fine.

From: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth <osw.re@mail.mil> Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2025 11:41 AM Men and Women of the Department of War, | am pleased to introduce GenALmil, a secure generative Al platform for every member of the Department of War. It is live today and available on the desktops of all military personnel, civilians, and contractors. With this launch we are taking a giant step toward mass Al adoption across the Department. This tool marks the beginning of a new era where every member of our workforce can be more efficient and impactful The first GenAl platform capability is Google Gemini, a frontier Al application that can help you write documents, ask questions, conduct deep research, format content, and unlock new possibilities across your daily workflows. Gemini is the first of several enterprise Al applications that will be rolled out on the GenAl platform. It is secure, certified up to Impact Level 5 (IL5), and is fully authorized to handle CUI. Victory belongs to those who embrace real innovation. Rather than being reliant on the dusty, antiquated systems of a bygone era, we are thinking ahead here in the Department of War. GenAl.mil is part of this monumental transformation. It removes wasted time and focuses more of our energy into decisive results for the warfighter. Access is straightforward. Navigate to GenAl.mil and you will be able to access the tool with your CAC. The platform is certified secure for operational use on NIPR. An image shown when one tries to visit genai.mil says: You have reached this page because yo uare not authorized to visit GenAI.mill from outside of DoW networks.

Suppose someone were looking for a modern code editor that's eminently scriptable, non-modal in the vim sense, open source, Linux compatible, isn't GNU Emacs specifically, and, most importantly of all, doesn't spend core developer focus on LLM support. What would their options look like, if any? […]

An important lesson I've had to learn the hard and slow way: a Raspberry Pi is a piece of junk, and an old/used x86 board is almost certainly both better and cheaper for whatever you intended to use that RPi for. (And you were just going to put it in a cupboard as a home server, weren't you?) […]

It's past time for the doggy day care roundup! The weather has sometimes been quite nice these past two weeks…

Canes lupi pembrokenses, from the left: Abbie and Pippa, both posing on an astroturf covered plinth and staring intently at something off camera at treat height. Canis lupus pembrokensis, with a huge crowd of other dogs, running out of the day care building towards the fields and fun. Canis lupus pembrokensis, standing almost upright on her hind legs, her forepaws resting on a Schnauzer in a cyan sweater standing on top of a big log. It looks very romantic. Canis lupus pembrokensis, focused expression on her face and tongue slightly out, at a gentle gallop across a grassy field towards the camera. Behind her, a spaniel in a blue onesie beholds her greatness.
