Yeah avoiding all mention of the huge financial incentives that may push for “pacing the frontier” makes it seem like the opposite of a credibility boost for these firms. It seems damaging since most folks (who lack insider knowledge) will

This doesnt seem to match reality? e.g. Notably several major carriers in India skipped 3G entirely and went to 4G directly because it was cheaper per subscriber. Which implies less expensive equipment per unit performance?

Wasnt this known by everyone who cared to pay attention? It practically became a joke about how a huge amount of the training data for GPT-4 was bottom of the barrel reddit vomit and obvious bot spam. Leading to many bizarre edge cases.

What do you think was the root cause?

The more interesting question is why would so many thousands of people in a big firm seemingly be fine with frustrating customers and giving the appearance of a gaggle of clowns? Standard psychology says they should be highly sensitive to s

Yeah it would be more surprising if they didn’t have a mandatory expensive program considering how much more complex it is than normal roofing stuff.

From what I heard, the shakedown of the Swiss government over the F35 contract couldn’t have happened without the active support of many actors in the beltway. So it seems sensible for them to doubt the intentions of many hundreds of decisi

I think the steel tube example already shows that such a “game” would already be unplayable for even the 99.9th percentile HN reader. For example, it would likely take dozens to hundreds of hours of study focused on steel tubes alone due to

Did you log onto the wrong account? Your posting from a rando pseudonym account on HN, as far as I can tell. It’s not even possible for passing readers (including me) to determine who is actually behind it… So who would I be “flaming”? Plus

Yes indirectly… it doesnt directly determine whether you literally see things phasing through walls or not? Did you not read the article?

Judging based on where nations put their diplomatic money, pretty much every major nation in the world (except maybe Japan) has a negative outlook for the USA. Even the UK is spending a lot to upgrade their embassy in Beijing.

DNA operates on a much lower level than large scale macro behavior such as 3cm to 30cm tall beings visually phasing through walls, or not… unless you think DNA does somehow directly affect it?

Yeah idk what OpenAI was thinking. Just going off their own claims… OpenAI must be filled with bozos to not be able to utilize their own supposed product capabilities…

Most are paying less than a fifth of the cost for a PC nowadays, inflation adjusted, compared to 1981. Those paying equivalent prices or higher for a mid spec computer do get much higher quality documentation, such as high end Toughbooks.

Considering how much more expensive woodcutting and printing were in the early 1500s… couldn’t he have just built an actual tirumphal arch (albeit simplified) with that money?

Deutche Bank I imagine is doing this because a significant fraction of their customers literally want to park their money in yuan? If it was some rounding error they wouldn’t have bothered spending money to set it up and get all the clearan

Yeah if it’s literally 90%+ people report the same thing… that seems impossible to explain even with a novel psychoactive substance… How can chemical compounds contain an entire script of what the little people can and cannot do?

Representing anyone in a court room by definition carries liability risks, because the judge can punish the lawyer unilaterally, but not the AI.

If errors of over half a typical screwhole width are so common, why has it never been noticed before and reported on? That seems literally impossible to not notice for years on end. Noctua doesnt seem like they would put up fake data either

by MichaelZuo 1mo ago
I don’t see how that helps? A lawyer isn’t going to sign on to take liability risk unless they spend quite a lot of time analyzing the AI’s outputs for possible blunders? So it structurally can’t cost significantly less.

Spec committees arent rigid automatons, they can clearly decide on say USB Type C-123 for practical implementation if they chose to.

Obviously there is some latent risk in choosing a career anywhere, that the demand disappears. There can’t literally be zero risk of structural demand changes.

by MichaelZuo 1mo ago
So? Is there a hard limit on just one “Type” in the formal name?

by MichaelZuo 1mo ago
Why not just USB-C Type 123? That allows for 999 possible permutations of usb-c cables.

This seems to be circular. Wouldn’t anyone need some reading “taste” in the first place to decide to read more. And if they already have it, why would they need to read it? If it’s all relative there can be no globally valid, or fixed, refe

Then why tack on some gibberish? Just for the heck of it? Frankly, I simply don’t believe in your genuineness enough to care about satisfying any requests.

I’m not trying to prove anything…? I just don’t care that much either way about what others think if it’s adversarial, even if thousands of HN users come to this comment chain to opine about this or that macbook model. If you mean my claim

Why would Cloudflare want to lose credibility and reputation though? Doesnt seem to make sense.
