An authnz aware egress proxy that also puts guard rails on MCP behavior?

True. There likely needs to be some sort of templating handled by states. Each data center and location will be different and require assessment. This does drive costs up for the data center, but I don't see another fair way to handle

That was my point. It doesn't all have to be taxes. It can also be agreed upon mitigation maintenance. Better filtration on gas turbines, etc. Green spaces to mitigate sound impact. I don't know, I am just wondering if there is a

Perhaps they are simply not taxed enough to benefit the community. If the local municipality is bearing a lot of these hidden costs, then perhaps the taxes need to be higher and directed at efforts that mitigate the worst of the problems. W

I asked the AI. It’s first reference was this comment. They were really doing a lot in the 80s at Bell Labs.

Hah, yeah. I do have a one line CLI script to upload a file to S3, get a shareable link, and send it to me on ntfy.sh. And my family all have ntfy.sh so that honestly is viable for some things. But still, not really all that workable for ma

I am pretty sure I knew that and forgot it and now I know it again :)

No killer products... just robots that can do vulnerability analysis at the level of a decent security engineer and write code without tiring.

I do agree with you at a philosophical level. I have worked in infosec long enough to know. I am pretty careful with what I upload. It’s just hard. Every little home hosted thing. They eat your time. Take effort. Even the “easiest” solution

Until I want to share with say… anyone that isn’t on HN :)

At least, here the biases are well known. I have been here since the beginning as well. :)

Every so often someone is like, Dropbox isn’t that hard. Look at this amazing ZFS/whatever! So simple. Yeah, I keep paying Dropbox every year so I don’t have to think about it. I shoot a sync off to backblaze every once in a while.

It was like 0.5% GDP. It wasn’t insane, but still, you are right. It was very focused. What do we get out of the F-35 program? By comparison, it has eaten (projected total lifetime cost) 2 trillion dollars. It is 4.5% of the GDP. I had no i

by bitexploder 5mo ago
I am skeptical you could do something of that scale for 30B today. That is just the dollar cost based on inflation. If you used CPI indexing probably hundreds of billions to a trillion dollars now.

The Manhattan project employed some significant % of all of America. A project of that scale will likely never happen again. It was also about far more than the science. It was about industrializing the entire production process and creatin

In my experience it really depends. You are still contractually and legally obligated to purchase a vehicle in many of these setups, they just don't follow up or enforce it directly in most cases. Loan rates are nothing like unsecured

by bitexploder 5mo ago
I never had to supply a W-2 for a vehicle loan. Just my SSN. I almost always get unsecured loans too. They just dump money into your bank account and say "please buy a car with this" and you keep the title. For a mortgage you do h

Loan applications. Credit cards. They all ask for your income. I always put 1,000,000. Never been denied a loan.

It’s nice. Sauna doesn’t have to be that expensive. On par with a hot tub. Way less maintenance. Can be installed outdoors. It does suck if you can’t. Public Sauna run at a nice temp are not easy to find in the US.

As an American, I built a proper sauna. Love it.

by bitexploder 6mo ago
Because Sauna isn’t a magical, just beneficial?

This helps, but the original prompt is still there. The system prompt is still influencing these thinking blocks. They just don’t end up clogging up your context. The system prompt sits at the very top of the context hierarchy. Even with is

That is part of it. They are also trained to think in very well mapped areas of their model. All the RHLF, etc. tuned on their CoT and user feedback of responses.
204.
by bitexploder 6mo ago
That is not how CoT works. It is all in context. All influenced by context. This is a common and significant misunderstanding of autoregressive models and I see it on HN a lot.
205.
by bitexploder 6mo ago
That "unproven claim" is actually a well-established concept called Chain of Thought (CoT). LLMs literally use intermediate tokens to "think" through problems step by step. They have to generate tokens to talk to themsel

Hmm? How does this relate to functional programming helping agents code better?
207.
by bitexploder 6mo ago
Agents can simply be told to write code in a functional style. They won’t complain. Think of it like a constraint system or proofs system. The agent can better reason about the code and side effects. Etc. Agents are very good at following a

There will always be more bugs than we can fix. AI can patch as well, but if your system is difficult to test and doesn't have rigorous validation you will likely get an unacceptable amount of regression.

There is something powerful about environment and what it does to our minds. For the author, giving up the monitor is totally valid and may work for many people. I can often convince myself to chance a habit by adding a simple extra physica

Don’t be greedy is probably a good rule when criming. But also, probably testing the system. Who knows who else was using it and how :)
