There are some things you cannot easily come back from - or at all - later in life eg poor health decisions, bad finances, not having children.

Early 40s here. I really wish I had started weightlifting 20 years ago.

The whole story makes no sense. How do they perform evals without a full reasoning trace of how the result was achieved? And if they have a full trace why did it take so long to detect the bad behavior? I understand that they disabled the s

The fact that companies with access to SOTA non-public AI keep having these kinds of dumb bugs in something as simple as a chat app helps validate my disbelief of people claiming AI is ready to replace all software development.

Surely anybody who could download the keygen could just as easily download the pirated game? Only difference is time and dialup costs, but neither of those would’ve pushed somebody into the buy category.

I want it off by default even for calm low HR outdoor walks. Nothing wrong with stopping a few minutes to admire nature during your outdoor walks! This feature was probably designed by the same person who thought it was a great idea not to

If somebody experiences psychosis while using AI, it’s because they have an existing mental illness and the AI use is co-incidental not causative of mental illness.

Haven’t seen any bloody bodies advertised to my child… yet.

As somebody who has unfortunately had to deal with people suffering actual psychosis stemming from some of the most terrible illnesses that can afflict a human being - no, this is not psychosis. What parent is describing is more akin to bel

Google Play Store showed my child an ad of a bloody body on a bed for a murder mystery game. The game was rated 18+ and the account had my daughter’s correct single digit age. I reported the ad and a week later it was still there. I switche

“Intuitive” implies “don’t need to read documentation”. That’s the entire point of my comment. There’s intuitive software and unintuitive software. This is unintuitive software. It’s not bad software, just unintuitive. I place value on intu

Killer feature is intuitive UX. Using DarkTable was an exercise in frustration for me. In darkroom mode you can’t navigate to other photos with cursor keys. Since the cursor keys do nothing else I have no idea why the aren’t bound to the na

Stable coins are not foreign currency, they are commodities

This is simply not true. In South Africa, one of the largest African economies, you cannot hold foreign currency unless you are traveling and then you have to sell it back within 30 days of returning to the country. You can open a foreign c

Where else are you going to get access to a real-time fresh high quality stream of human intelligence to grow your baby AGI? You can’t buy Codex, Claude, Copilot, so what’s left?

I find it gets you past the starting line but when you dig into the code it’s a mess of duplicated code, muddled responsibilities, poor architecture, 10k line files that eat your tokens, etc. I’m building something using LLMs to scrape webs

I am not American, but in my extremely dangerous country we have many privately-operated cameras and I don’t know a single person who is against them. We also have strict privacy laws. So I was disappointed by what felt like very weak argum

This doesn’t solve the problem either, which is that of the Confused Deputy [1]. An arbitrary piece of code I’m downloading shouldn’t be able to run as Ryan by default with access to everything Ryan has. We need to revitalize research into
