They can still be held civilly liable for negligence, though.

Yep. The loophole is not hard to close, they could restrict the exemption to standby generators which only operate (1) in the event of a grid outage, and (2) for testing purposes. For a genuine off-grid use case (eg: very rural locations),

Why berate an LLM? That doesn't sound healthy. Sure, it's a machine, but it's simulating a social interaction - being a jerk to it could bleed over into interactions with real people. Also, Westworld? These violent delights

Gitea (and its popular fork, Forgejo) are very lightweight. You can easily stand up an instance on a cheap VPS.

They have to be pushy, it's how they install spyware which use tracking methods that would be a CFAA violation and prison time for anyone else: https://localmess.github.io/

Neither of those imply "collapse," just that the economy could be doing better than it is. There's a vast continuum between "collapse" and "red hot." Canada's economy is doing just fine despite a few

Citation needed. Canada's economic indicators are all extremely healthy, despite the trade war tantrum from its southern neighbour.

I am in Canada. I cannot legally host defence workloads in the United States, even if I wanted to (I most certainly don't).

So, if I'm understanding correctly, this is just for lower bandwidth transfers of full BF16 weights over the wire, not for serving, correct? Have you benchmarked the performance against a SOTA general purpose compression algorithm like

More like $500k, but that's not an unreasonable price for a medium sized enterprise to pay. I have an RF engineering background, a nice mmWave vector network analyzer can easily land in that ballpark. If the business value is there, co

You can even go a step further and run the container in a VM, such as with Docker Sandbox or the krun runtime in Podman. There's also smolvm which is a nice minimal microvm manager based on libkrun: https://github.com/s

Not my field, but since they use SQUIDs I suspect most of the volume is taken up by cryo equipment. So, maybe if someone eventually discovers a room temperature superconductor.

Okay buddy, that was a Gish gallop if I've ever seen one. The risk is real. The math isn't complicated, you could stand up a basic debris simulation in a few hours with numpy from first principles. And we also know it's real

VLEO addresses the risk, sure, but the new Starcloud space datacenter hype machine isn't going VLEO, it's going 600-850 km. Those altitudes are in the years to decades range for deorbit, and SpaceX has filed for 88,000 of them.

Nobody is arguing that space isn't big. The argument is space is big but dynamic, and launching enough stuff up there means that over a sufficiently long time horizon, you will have a collision between uncontrolled objects. This is not

Not at all, it can be handled via international treaty. Frequency allocations for civilian satellites are already handled this way, a UN body (the ITU Radiocommunication bureau in Geneva) acts as a neutral party that handles satellite sp

Eh... no, not really. At low altitudes (<500 km), sure, but much above 600 km you are starting to look at decades for a passive deorbit depending on solar cycle and ballistic coefficient.

I mean, presumably, the tax would apply per-spacecraft with a price adjustment for orbit lifetime and how busy a particular orbit is, so a small constellation of 5-10 short lived microsatellites wouldn't have a huge entry barrier.

My issue is we likely can't use AWS (non-US, CLOUD Act concerns + export control concerns).

Cheers, thanks for the quick turnaround!

Ooh, I hadn't seen these yet! That looks quite compelling, my only hesitancy would be what the software support looks like. But 1 TB of memory for $110k is really intriguing - I might go bother a sales rep. Thanks!

Anyone done any benchmarks on the NV4FP quant? Seriously considering pitching an 8 x RTX 6000 Pro box at work to run GLM-5.2 in an air gapped environment.

Thanks so much for building smolvm! I liked it so much that I vibe coded a little bash wrapper around it to handle creating ephemeral VMs for Pi: https://github.com/neuroblaze/smol-pi Consists of two scripts, one to bu

As with most legal hacks, the courts figured this one out long ago :). If someone is trying to dig into their competitor's trade secrets via discovery, the court offers multiple ways to safeguard against that. The defendant can identif

Most likely, Papermark would compel Corgi to disclose the source code during discovery.

Setting aside how shortsighted it is to fire your employees to replace them with AI, Ford also screwed up by firing the wrong employees. LLMs work best in the hands of experienced senior engineers who can work at a high level of abstracti

I wonder if Nico will be feeling so cocky when Papermark gets their general counsel involved. The public Twitter shaming was clearly an attempt to resolve this without litigation, but hey, if that's how Nico truly feels, guess he gets

Yep, agreed. Main issue in Canada is a notoriously slow and stingy investment ecosystem. Resource-wise we're incredibly well positioned.

Ideally yes, but we know people don't RTFA - there's a reason that initialism dates back to early Slashdot. The paraphrase is doing a lot of heavy lifting to convert it to ragebait. Had the OP gone with something like "you di

The tweet was fine - it was directly addressing Corgi's claim that they had "vibe coded" DataRoom when they had copied and pasted it from Papermark. The problem is the OP chose to perform a contextectomy on the tweet and make
