The future is open models running on your device. No subsidized corporate tooling required. There will never be a reckoning for the people who are letting their coding skills atrophy. I don't like it either, but that's the way it

If you read the "Adapting Probabilities" section of the link above, there's a nice explanation of why changing the probability works.

Obviously they'll get away with this in the US, but doesn't this break a LOT of EU privacy laws?

The app has gotten consistently slower, buggier, with worse UX for over a decade. In all that time, I can’t recall a single new feature I’ve actually found useful. The app was done in 2011. They could make a massive improvement across the b

They’re not moving it to the Netherlands. There’s still plenty of countries that the Dutch trust, but the US no longer seems to be on that list.

Anthropic must see themselves as the most evil people on the planet then. Forcing a sentient being to endure a non-stop barrage of abuse from the general public would be an unimaginable crime. I don’t think they actually believe that.

Yeah it’s Snapchat. If you take a screenshot of a (potentially extremely private, intended to be ephemeral) image, it notifies the person who sent it.

They’re not propagandists, they’re the official accounts of candidates in the election. I don’t see any problem with this as long as it’s applied to all candidates equally.

The acknowledgements section in the paper is so bizarre. We have an LLM thanking individual humans for their contributions.

For a speedrun you don't care about 100 failed runs as long as you get the world record once. You're basically hoping to get lucky that the computer opponent won't hit you. Obviously you're going to pick the greediest (i

Because Donkey Kong gives more speed for exactly the same acceleration. I.e. you sacrifice nothing and gain something by switching away. EDIT: If you mean that Rosalina looks slightly higher on the graph, I believe that's just a visual

The link is right there, and the answer is in the first paragraph.

I really don't care about Microsoft's maintenance costs. I should be able to play the game I paid for 20 years from now without having to jump through hoops in the intervening period. It's not my fault that they decided to ma

I paid for Minecraft and can no longer play it. I'm supposed to be thankful for this? If you choose to work for EvilCorp don't be surprised when you get assigned to work on tickets that make people unhappy.

The AI generated text in the tour is a good clue. But I also don’t think the author is denying it.

Fun, but suggestion - don't let the nametags cover the piece area. Very frustrating to not even be able to see the pieces because people are hovering their cursors there.

Imgur decided to satisfy the terms of the UK's Online Safety Act by simply blocking access to the UK. As someone who lives here it's very annoying but also good on them.

If that happens one time at any company, it would be discovered and reported on eventually, and people would never trust any Chinese model again. The motivation for China is clearly to prevent America gaining a monopoly on AI, not spycraft.

I remember some early posts from him about how he really liked how the debug mode made the iteration loop very short. Here's a video of him doing exactly this - it does look like a very pleasant development environment even now https:

A more general solution for dealing with complex AWS services is learning just enough terraform to let LLMs do the rest. It also makes it much easier to tear stuff down later as you won’t need to remember what you created.

Would you allow advertising class A drugs? TV adverts on kids channels for heroin? Your position is absurd, I’m sorry.

Clear your cookies for the site or open incognito mode. But I agree there's no reason not to let people continue and just mark where they ended "legitimately".

The article you linked lists a bunch of downsides to powdered sugar: it doesn’t kill the mites it just encourages the bees to brush them off, it has reduced effectiveness when it’s humid, it doesn’t work on mites that aren’t actively on a b
