What’s wrong with transparency for advertisements? If you take offense to the “boosting” of news sites, I see the point but now we have Elon arbitrarily boosting his own content on X. Not sure how you end up solving that issue other than pe

And this is why just fucking with the genome via crispr to birth “smarter” babies is such a bad idea. I’m thinking of this recent hacker news post linking to “how to make superbabies”: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43

I’m tired of the old “if you’re not for this, you’re against us” absurd logic fallacies. There is no binary choice here. It’s not like we haven’t balanced the budget before without completely destroying the whole place. Within my lifetime e

But why would that information not be included in the wide crawl already encoded in the model weights before the knowledge cutoff? I believe the article mentions frontier models so we are talking about models trained on trillions of tokens

I’m confused by the article mentioning West Virginia as a prime location for data centers along side Ohio - I am not aware of a large concentration of data centers in WV? (Unlike VA, of course) https://westvirginiawatch.com/

This is why I recommend to put all devices on 5ghz and deploy additional APs for coverage. 2.4ghz is only good for low speed IoT devices.

No need to worry about running deficits when the tax cuts realized by the richest individuals and corporations “trickles down” to the rest of us. Still waiting for that magic rain…

I have to respectfully disagree - turning over basically unlimited power to reshape the entire bureaucracy to an unelected person isn’t the way to do it either. It’s not a binary choice.

Wait, you’re alleging Bill Clinton downsized the government by measures more callous than randomly firing workers, forcing them to en masse justify their positions to an unelected billionaire? I was alive then and I don’t remember any of

And don't worry, the House is ready to extend and expand tax cuts to more than extinguish any potential "savings" - to the tune of over $3 trillion in extra deficit spending. But don't worry, they've planned for tha
