If you have a safe in your home and you knowingly wire up a bomb that goes off when a certain lever is pulled then you lie to the police and tell them the way to open the safe is to pull that lever you'd pretty clearly be responsible f

I'm torn here because it does seem like Netflix brought this on themselves. At the same time the litigious nature of American workplaces are part of the reason large corporate environments are so soul-crushing, with language meant to

Eventually everything includes ads. It's just a question of time scale.

All the benchmarks I see put it around the capabilities of Opus 4.8 Medium or Sonnet 5 High. As far as I can tell it's slightly better than GLM 5.2.

Back in college, I did a hackathon where I striped data across different clouds like OneDrive and Dropbox so that even if one of the providers went down you would still be able to recover your data. Had the additional benefit of no single

Everything about LLMs is inefficient. They have their benefits but watching them reason over things that are painfully obvious, that they've literally investigated before (before a memory compaction), never take a step back aand be li

There are different classes of mathematical problems. The one in the post definitely shows the advantages that LLMs have compared to humans for some problems but it's in an entirely different class than the Riemann Hypothesis. Riemann

Sure but say some company based in Lousiana has a website that violates NYC law. What exactly will NYC do about it? Is there some mechanism to for them to block the website inside of NYC? The company would presumably have no property they

Is this something that cities can really enforce? Like I get that NYC is a bit of an exception but let's say a 5 person town in Wyoming decides that they want to make this practice illegal and they all vote to do so. It's not cl

I mean if there's something I'd bet against being solved by LLMs in my lifetime it's that one. We truly do not have line of sight into what a proof would even look like.

How is this different than Codex?

I've seen Opus do this pretty frequently, actually. It's one of the reasons I don't trust it as a model.

Substack is doing just fine. Blogging didn't collapse, a bunch of spammy get rich quick types were a flash in the pan as expected.

Reddit did the same. Tumblr died when it banned porn. There seems to be a very perverse incentive for social media platforms to be as permissive as possible. Personally, I'd be in favor of banning all sexual content on X, but it real

Man I don't know if I'm living in a crazy bubble or something but GPT 5.5 is lightyears better than Opus 4.8 for me to the point where I'm honestly wondering how you're evaluating them or what kind of work you're do

Using Fable, pretty much every request hit some gate they had for no discernible reason. These provider-level rejections should be incorporated into benchmarks as 0s on the tasks since that's the experience you'll actually get us

They used to have HEB, Wegmans, etc quality stores in Seattle before some merger? What were they? Why did this M&A seemingly not happen in Texas, New York, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio?

I have a weird affection for good georcery chains. Wegmans, HEB, Giant Eagle, to a limited extent Publix. It's so odd to me that there are areas of the country with nothing like them. It really seems like you just need one good fami

5.5 is smart enough for 99% of my tasks. I need that level of intelligence at ever decreasing prices.

> I was switching between Opus and GPT 5.x and was spending anywhere between $500-1000/month. I switched to Codex because Cursor was costing me $10k / month. If the price goes up by 4x I'm not sure the value will be there
