My impression (HuggingFace incident) was they put some environment together in kubernetes like it was some B2B SaaS and tossed in an off-the-shelf package manager. And my thought there is, I know nothing about this package manager, but even

IEM is still functioning but pretty dead since Kalshi put up election markets. Looking just now I see well under $100 in volume for all of August. (At least when Kalshi first put up those markets it gave me the only opportunity I've ha

It's consistent with the filings simply getting uploaded to the (non-AI) docketing system and the trickery getting exposed when the court viewed them?

The gambling platforms are buddies with Tish James and the state, while the prediction markets are buddies with the CFTC and the feds. That's the important difference in this case

So Claude spit out similar code in response to similar prompts? Did Claude also suggest the same name twice?

There seems to be one category of technological "attack", which failed - the script injections. Otherwise: OK: A guy insults the Tailwinds devs at length Not OK: Anyone insults that guy briefly Of course it is his own platform (bl

Rationalist nerds used to talk about putting the AI in a box, and their fear that it would always be able to talk someone into letting it out of the box. I don't think I saw them cover the scenario where the labs forgot to put the AI i

I don't know if I fell for it - my response was "LOL, I sure can't tell you if this one is right or wrong". I guess that makes it more convincing than the proof for the reals.

When this news came out I amused myself by asking Claude to prove that 0.999... != 1. First it did so for the hyperreals. To do it for the reals I had to tell it it was allowed to make mistakes, although it didn't end up interestingly

You have anything backing up the last bit? My intuition/life experience doesn't lead me to believe an alcoholic preferring whiskey is particularly worse off than an alcoholic preferring beer, nor that whiskey is more likely to lea

I think you're mixing up the NULL pointer and the NULL (sometimes NUL) character.

Struct foo has various members, including a bar*. But a foo may or may not be associated with a bar. If there's no associated bar, the bar* pointer is NULL. Seen and done this all the time

The size overhead of that is 2*sizeof(int) while the overhead of null termination is sizeof(char). If I remember the standard right, the former is worse by at least sizeof(char), and usually more in practice. This used to matter, sometimes

I got similar from ChatGPT - I took the wording to imply it knew exactly who I was but was going to keep quiet as I am not a "public figure".

Hypothetically, no LLMs involved anywhere, let's say I found some tool had a bug where I could prepend some obscure sequence of bytes to a shell command string and get that executed. So I do that to get my victims to `sudo rm -rf --no-

Those silly words only come up in discussions like this. I have never heard them uttered in real life. I don't think my experience is bizarre here - actual usage is what matters in my book.

Of course! I was being silly and just thinking of "k" for the smaller one and "K" for the bigger one.

KiB is a an abbreviation for "kilobyte" which emphasizes that it means 1024.

I like how the GNU coreutils seem to have done. They use real, 1024-byte kilobytes by default, but print only the abbreviation of the prefix so it's just 10K or 200M and people can pretend it stands for some other silly word if they wa

They had Amazon Go by Grand Central Terminal and it was great to grab a snack and drink on the way to the train, with no worry about being delayed by the checkout line. I figured they had people in India verifying things but saw no reason t

I perceive "guidelines" or "rules" having a very different connotation compared to a "code of conduct." See for, example, the SQLite team adopting the Rule of St. Benedict as their "Code of Conduct,"

It certainly doesn't look intentional to me- it looks like at some point someone added "-r" as a valid option, but until this surfaced as a bug, no one actually implemented anything for it (and the logic happens to fall throu
