This is the disconnect. You say that politicians are allowing them - that's not right. They're directing them to be set up, they're spending citizen tax money on buying them. The blame lies entirely with government offi

Especially when chances are that this camera installation was the result of local government asking and paying Flock to put it up. I'm not sure why the anger is directed at the company instead of local elected officials, and I understa

If government supplied clean water hasn't been considered a right, and there's no change in that now, wouldn't you expect the number of dead in the future from this to be proportionally equal to the number of dead in the past

“Sovereignty is the ability to resist power being exerted over you” is a pretty compelling definition. Thinking forward about what form that power takes with LLMs developing custom exploits faster than our existing processes can patch them

Is it true that employees have to earn Bobcoins before they can use Bob?

With all the major model providers down, I'm taking the opportunity to try out Muse Spark 1.3 Free on OpenCode. It's pretty good!

You say completely locked out, but be fair, that's a choice you're making. I don't particularly like Facebook but there are a few things I can only keep up with there, so I have a minimal account for that purpose.

Scalper bots need customers to sell to; their business model falls apart in the face of sufficient supply.

A consequence of aggressive distillation?

He did, by arguing that a company that is fast-tracked for index inclusion has an obligation to prevent its stock price from following common post-IPO price patterns; and using "the only company to do so" as an allusion to a false

Guarantee is too strong a thing to seek, but healthy competition makes it highly likely that the supply/demand curve will meet at a healthy place. You're always guaranteed that you can stash away the open models!

Depends on the company and environment. If you work at a place that has an overabundance of easily-googleable questions, this behavior is a good social impediment.

Their published benchmarks seem to indicate that it's pretty good at coding and multimodal, but VERY good at successful tool calls. What kind of use case would be best for that shape?

+1. And regardless of how thick skinned a nerd is, all the brigading makes threads majority-offtopic and now the neighborhood just sucks. In this case here, the new Grok release genuinely has some interesting characteristics in its quality&

Why are prices up even though population is down over the past ten years? Did everybody decide to move to the city or something?

Yes; though SAT is less prep-resistant and it'd be smart to apply a "+/- 100pts" fuzz to a score.

"You're partly making your decision based on who someone was as a 17 year old." Sure, but IQ tests show a high degree of stability over a person's life. It's not unreasonable to be interested in it for sorting.

I mean, lots of Americans would risk building something important with it in that case.

Yes, it'd be interesting if this gets appealed and the SC gets to take a look at if $0 tax stamps are allowable under the tax and spending clause.

Yup. This is why reining in Congress’s authority to delegate is so important.

by EgregiousCube 7mo ago
Yeah. If you look a little closely you'll see their current project is to establish the "major questions doctrine," which ultimately reduces executive power by stopping Congress from giving it all to the executive. It looks

This is true; there is additionally a valid argument that there is security benefit to locking down the bootloader. I don’t like locked down bootloaders, but I get the argument.

He did change it when paraphrasing, just now :-) I'm sure it'll be paraphrased to another company in another 30 years.

The "at math" is the important part here - I've met more than a few people who are super smart about math but significantly less smart about drugs. I don't think that it's a good policy to forcibly muzzle their drug

Imagine a subreddit full of people giving bad drug advice. They're at least partially full of people who are intelligent and capable of performing human work - but they're mostly not professional drug advisors. I think at best y

It's possible (and in fact the law) that the journalist against whom a search warrant is issued is suspected of aiding in the leak or committing a crime, though. I don't think we yet know that she's not in that category; onl
