Today I plan to ask Claude to read a bunch of Feynman lectures, compare them to my last Claude session transcript, and come with a list of rules to be more like Feynman. It'll go in CLAUDE.md

In a blog post, OpenAI said it was testing the capabilities of some of its most advanced models in a controlled environment but that the program managed to escape containment, reach the internet, and break into Hugging Face to try to satisf

We see with the Mythos block that AI has begun to seem dangerous to the powers that be. We can expect 1-3 more public frontier models before they are globally barred from public access as being too dangerous.

All trucks have standard shipping container trailers. Europe has strict length limits for the overall cab/trailer that preclude a hood in front of the cab. There is great resistance to changing the law, even though long-nosed trucks ar

My guess is that the use of mousquetaires was more a reference to a specific corps of the military than to the weapon itself. It would be like the gendarmes today — literally "armed people", even if they don't always carry an

It would be nice to have details: It rewards or penalizes online services depending on whether they agree to carry out “voluntary” scanning, effectively making intrusive monitoring a business expectation rather than a legal requirement.

This is a great article — just short texts by experts in their field who really know what they're talking about. It's very refreshing compared to all the rewritten and simplified articles one so often sees.

It's wild to see the HN crowd, bleeding-edge technologists, regularly bring up "lying flat on a table" as a critical feature for a supercomputer inside a camera that fits in your pocket. Somebody (many somebodies?) is rolling

Cool, but I'd like us to get past the idea that a site has to use Times font to be retro. Times is really not adapted for the web and is particularly bad on low-resolution screens. How many computer terminals used Times for anything bu

You can see why planes stay in the air by sticking your hand out a car window. If you know better contradict me, but: An inclined flat surface will push air down, creating pressure below, and create an empty area above, creating a partial v
