Is there any merit to this concern, or did you just imagine it?

If it was just released, then your claims about it are entirely hypothetical and best-case-scenario. Of course we have to "see how it goes" - there's no merit but hopefulness to your stance...

Can you give an example of a plant that has been built under this streamlined process and what kind of timeline it had? The only recent nuclear buildouts that I personally have knowledge of are expansions to existing plants and thus have a

That’s a great theory, unfortunately it’s defeated by the fact that I didn’t need to use anti-bot solutions until I was charged for 38,000x my normal ingress traffic in a single month by bot traffic.

Dude, as someone who runs web servers, my pockets are not that deep. I’m struggling to keep the websites of hundreds of hobbyists and small businesses alive right now because of people like this.

They are probably referring to the very real and unfortunate phenomenon wherein people use LLMs as sounding boards without consulting other humans, current frontier LLMs being heavily sycophantic in their responses. This tends to create a f

This would be really cool if it comes to fruition and works in the way they want it to. Given the source, I will treat it as nonsense science fiction until it’s built, functional and scientifically tested.

This attitude, and by proxy this business are the epitome of selfish entitlement. You state that you believe you deserve access to others’ resources, at their cost, despite their clear attempts to stop you from using them, simply because yo

I’d be surprised if this was useful for much. Claude is already almost too slow to do anything serious I’d consider using it for outside of grunt work without parallelizing. The only reason it’s economical is because it’s massively discount

I use a separate physical machine and a scoped token with access to a single repository at a time, and even then I worry about what hole I may have left open. The general carelessness of the average user is baffling.

Public good isn’t a charity, and a business model that doesn’t contribute to the public good should not be allowed to exist.

When you say "no", the worst thing that can happen is you lose contributions. When you say "yes", the worst thing that can happen is you destroy your project and the trust of every user. If you're not sure, say no.

A “cloud engineer” is orders of magnitude easier to replace than a programmer - there are entire SaaS products that have been trying to be a drop-in replacement for your career since AWS was out of the gate. The fact that you still have a j

Yes, not only are both true, but one is the consequence of the other's extreme. When you socially punish people for sticking out, even harmlessly, eventually you end up criminally punishing people for sticking out, even harmlessly.

Yes it’s very easy to have 90% approval and hear no downsides to your regime when you execute and imprison people for disapproval. Oh you have some complaints? You must be a drug dealer. Death for you.

I still haven’t had it. I’ve been working with ML for most of my career, and “gen ai” since the days of matrix crunching for NLP to a 10-element response array on my 1080Ti. The current generation of AI is frankly, only marginally more impr

This may be true for standard BT (I genuinely have not looked into it), but Meta's glasses are pushing out ADV frames every few seconds, paired or not because they act as a BLE beacon.
