I was alive for that but had forgotten about it…wild.

My brainstorming led down a similar pathway of, "deluding powerful human actors that the systems must not be interfered with at any cost." I'm not sure I buy it though. Seems to me like if humanity were even approaching that

Hmm, I wonder if, as a plaintiff that wished to file a complaint against a police department, would the records be gone by the time I got far enough through the courts to force evidence discovery. All of the Flock-lovers I talk to love to b

I recognize your username from other comment threads and would classify you as a bun fanatic, but even so, I’d hold off on saying, “it’s working for bun,” until 1.4.0 has been out of canary for, like, more than 24 hours. Most real users hav

Jarred wrote a lengthy blog about the rewrite a little while ago and IIRC the token burn numbers were in there (or at least the burn up to that point in time). https://bun.com/blog/bun-in-rust

This remains one of the strangest and frankly most annoying beefs I’ve ever read about all decade, and I say this as somebody with no particular affinity for bun, rust, or zig.

This isn’t financial advice, but Defense contractors seem to be a solid hold in a winter economy with this insane and hawkish “war department”. This administration’s primary means of distraction from issues at home appears to be “start a co

Perhaps. But did democrats famously take a “chainsaw for ‘government waste’” to all major federal agencies? No. That was a handful of Republican edgelords.

Ok then, just get rid of qualified immunity. The city will take care of their liability issues on its own.

Disagree. I don’t need to be a subject matter expert on the environment or fire risks to profit from a wildfire prediction market. I need enough money to buy a pack of cigarettes. EDIT: I suppose I also need to be able to purchase the “shar

Yeah I guess most interesting LLM work that I’ve been exposed to, the LLM is given to some sort of success criteria that could be reward-hacked, so how good am I supposed to feel about giving it any non-trivial work and it not going so far

Something about this attack that has been unsettling to me is that without safety refusals the model did a lot of interesting counter-security work in order to cheat on the requested evaluation. Like, it demonstrated interesting exploit ach

I read him regularly. My appraisal is that he never goes so far as to say, “LLMs are not useful.” He constantly says LLMs do not and will not measure up to the hyperbolic capabilities the CEOs of their companies, their boosters, and a compl

This is the wrong call, we should have gone for permanent standard time instead of this. Permanent DST was tried already in the 1970s and everyone in my parents’ generation tells me it was a complete and total disaster

Read all of this as: “I am currently mismanaging this business unit.”

I find it troubling that we’re apparently reaching this level of learned helplessness where it’s considered unreasonable to assume the user is able to start a container instance.

Single-issue voting is something I consider a very large threat to the democratic process in the US, and is also something that both parties have become exceedingly good at creating in the elctorate. The reason I consider it a threat is tha

This reads like a grievance to me, so I’ll say—-I’m sorry, your company sounds like it sucks. Your skills are still valuable, I hope you can find somewhere else that values them.

I agree, we screwed up nuclear policy here in the US but I wouldn’t say it was solely “vibes.” Three Mile Island wasn’t Chernobyl, but it also wasn’t nothing. Still, an unfortunate long-term outcome is that nuclear energy became a non start

Funny, so many words used but my brain only hears, “I am currently mismanaging this company,” every time one of these layoffs occurs.

It was difficult to finish reading your post after you put the OP down for stating that they believe they're more original and more capable than an LLM. Maybe leave that part out next time, or at least don't lead with it. It does
