    This is about the useful nuts that help you build things and fix things.

    I think ants would feel a kind of kinship with the LLM method of solution seeking. They are big fans of brute force. They might even recognize an LLM as a kind of "bad colony" but I'm getting perilously close to talking about "The Book I Can't Talk About Until it is Done" so I'll stop there.

    Without knowing what they are in any way that we can recognize.

    Ants have achieved the same major technological milestones that we celebrate in humans. They grapple with problems of managing major population centers and information that are similar to the problems humans face.

    And the solutions found by ants are much more robust than those found by humans.

    They have demonstrated they can stand the test of time and they show no signs of being "done" growing slowly more complex and more important in every ecosystem they enter.

    If ants didn't already have agriculture (selective breeding of scale insects, mass production of fungi, shepherding) people would say "how could an ant ever develop agriculture? Crows have bigger brains and THEY don't have agriculture."

    If ants didn't build sewer systems, which some do, people would say the same thing. Or if they didn't practice medical amputation.

    Ants achieve these things without knowing what they are. In the ant way.

    It will be the same for space travel.

    Oarfish are so elegant and beautiful. It's like a fish from a fairy kingdom.

    Sometimes they have been seen resting in a vertical position. I love them.

    Birds are pretty robust. Pigeons have a pretty chaotic record. The dodo? Passenger pigeon? It's such a diverse clade of birds. Very adaptable.

    Do you think this was maybe a little mean? I do have a point here.

    I was listening to some SF guy going on about "intelligent life on earth" and talking about how if humans can't last for a long time it's kind of over for earth.

    But... there are ants.

    And the ants of the future? Come on. If we can imagine people of the future with space colonies and amazing technology why not the ants?

    They would do it in their own way of course. But they want to fill the stars just as badly.

    Plastic ants?

    I am confident that if there is enough plastic to make it practical, ants will put the plastic to good use.

    Though, silk is a far superior material in many ways.

    I have seen a vile whirlpool in the helle gate whilst kayaking around NYC

    The helle gate is the home of a maelstrom even on a clear and windless day, the tides drive boils and sinks, standing waves and the wicked whirlpool which tried to take my paddle from me.

    Giant Squid?
    Rogue Wave?

    Seems like most of the things that sailors go on about with horror (that land lovers dismiss as tall tales) turn out to be real.

    What else should we stop laughing about?

    OK. This sounds made up, but I want it to be true? Apparently sometimes ants find garnets while digging their nests. The ants think "useless rock" and add it to the hill outside where it may be found by people who love shiny little stones.

    They could fund just SNAP if they wanted to. They did during other shutdowns. This is deliberate.
