Everybody comes into information in different ways. There were no comments here about this specific aspect of the story - which is definitely interesting!

I don't understand why I'm getting downvoted, I'm not posting an opinion. Coincidences happen. So does foul play. No judgement call here.

I heard a rumor (on instagram, so YMMV) that the professor who was closest to solving this problem had only weeks ago used Codex, which had slurped up all his notes on the subject. Now OpenAI's agents solve the problem. If it's tr

Came here to say exactly this. If you’re not writing the code (or especially reviewing it) then we need stronger type systems and more checks and fewer legal programs. Might as well move all the way to Idris or some not-yet-invented languag

Is it normal for a company this big to make a public blog post like this with almost no introduction to what they’re on about? I would expect them to start out with something like Apple is suing us for yada yada yada, but instead it reads l

And then on the side they sell "metadata" to insurance companies and anyone else willing to pay...

They need to get sued _hard_ and lose millions, as well as have cops put in jail before real change happens. I feel sorry for this kid but he's doing the right thing.

Just have an agent chug on a side-project for you, or set up a CI script to review every pull request or some similarly “helpful” task. That should eat a lot of tokens!

It’s interesting how many more community reported data centres there are compared to operational and proposed. I’m wondering if this is because of over reporting? Like - does the public mistake any new, big building as a data centre, or are

Have you tried qwen3.5 running locally? It’s quite “good enough”.

But how is ki like rust, and why is that significant? Helix is pretty rad, even if what you say is true.

Why even should they be allowed to contract an action that they themselves cannot perform - even _with_ a warrant? Is that not still "doing" the action?

Can you substantiate these claims with with anything? What unlawful DoJ demands has Apple given in to? Anthropic is still very early in their trajectory compared to Apple with its ~50 year run, so it's not exactly an Apple to apples co

I’ve been using Claude through opencode, and I figured this was just how it does it. I figured everyone else did it this way as well. I guess not!

I've been working on Renderling — an open-source, GPU-driven real-time renderer in Rust targeting both native and web (via WebGPU). I just signed a Memorandum of Understanding with NLnet (NGI0 Commons Fund) for a second year of funding

The Republicans this term have gotten plenty done, it's just nothing that helps average people. Their wins can't be widely celebrated and so they aren't, as much. https://www.project2025.observer/

Republicans are overwhelmingly Christian, and even though Calvinism, or its branches, may not be the religion a majority of Republicans “exercise”, predetermination is a convenient explanation of why the world is what it is, and why no acti

In zcash the wallet is what’s responsible for what is “default”. Zashi is private by default, but the optional transparency of zcash is a feature that makes zcash tenable from a regulatory standpoint. The trusted ceremony is solved now, btw

Without a plea bargain, he would have to worry about incarceration as soon as he stepped down, is my point.

I don’t know if we should be so sure that he will be gone in three years. There is no incentive for him to relinquish control peacefully. We’ll have to give him a plea bargain, or a pardon of sorts, to incentivise him stepping down. Without
