"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Wouldn't say it's better than ChatGPT. But it's different. Thing is, you gotta grap it while it's available. In Italy they already banned the app.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

It's a possibility, but who cares. Main thing is optimized routines that make that thing potentially more intelligent.

If you knew how Huawei took down Nortel in Canada—through corporate espionage, reverse engineering, employee poaching, and submitting fake bids to purchase the company only to back away—you'd understand how one became a telecommunications giant while the other crumbled, leaving many people out of work. It's hard to say that doesn't matter and a reminder how companies should take care of their intellectual property.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

DeepSeek is incredible and I have to be honest, I find delightful that ChatGPT got beat at its own game of copying the entire written internet without consent under the guise of public license and now they’re all hung out.

This is a long video, but you would like it.

 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Apparently they stole all the data from ChatGPT
I heard it is Chinese. I mean that’s what all they do, steal hardware/software from other countries.
ChatGPT is a closed source model though, if it somehow leaked you would without a doubt find it somewhere on the internet for download. It also acts differently indicating they probably trained the DeepSeek model independently and with different parameters.

What's more concerning about DeepSeek is that they're probably mining data like crazy from everyone using it through their website or app.

The good part about this model is that unlike ChatGPT this model is actually completely open source. Meaning if you don't want the Chinese to know what you ate for breakfast you can just download the entire model and run it completely locally. You would of course need your own GPU farm to run the full model or sacrifice accuracy by going for one of the compressed models which are capable of running on a single newer gen consumer grade GPU.

So I'd argue that your data is safer if you use DeepSeek, but only if you're running the entire model on your own hardware. Something you can't do with ChatGPT, you have to use their service to use ChatGPT and as such they can technically track you.

DeepSeek may have inappropriately distilled our models
I didn't consider this possibility, fair enough. Yeah, that would definitely not be fair play if this turns out to be the case.
