Your heart is in the right place but your conclusion is not. Because it was trained unethically we have a few moral obligations: 1) USE IT. Do not let only unethical people use a force amplifier on our collective efforts. 2) STOP PUBLISHIN

The crates.io page and version history should have an entry, like red with an ! and a cross through with an advisory note explaining the security issue, accessible via the api as well so it is clear what happened. The main crate entry shoul

There is a lot of talk about super-intelligence being open or closed, controlled or free, etc, and not a lot of talk about security, ownership, and privacy. We cannot just have an open superintelligence. We need a PRIVATE, PERSONAL share o

I can see this was largely AI written. There is nothing wrong with that, but how much did you test and vet what the AI wrote? Looking at the compiler, it doesn't make much sense. You have an AST that is rather minimal and I can'

Did a tree ask you for payment for shade? Did the stars ask your payment for their light? Did the sun ask you for payment for its warmth? Did the Earth ask you for payment for your life? The knowledge that allowed you to flourish was paid i

All the things you mentioned were massive creative endeavors demanding the talents of countless humans with real-world stakes, moral compasses, and sovereign autonomy. These creatives had rights, they had families, they had parents, and th

Because it is technologically impossible to enforce this on the owner class. The people who control compute control the rules. Without proper audit trails it becomes impossible to prove or enforce. The only ones, then, who could afford to

I wrap most node-isms and use deno as the runtime. Works well. If a project is pure typescript I just have deno run it. Extra options for security are great, installation scripts disabled by default, etc. If you're using node direct

Nice. In the right track. I made something similar, but focused on local agents, but we both have issue tracking for managing multiple project and agents in parallel. It works, I think people will be surprised when they start using syste

I patched my local radicle to remove the default seeds, and I can put my own seeds as default. It is pretty easy to script some commands that auto add your local nodes when init a repo. I also added some network rules to block non-local ne

I use this metric now, and I suggest you change it per your imagination: "Make a single-page HTML file using threejs from a CDN. Render a scene of a flying dinosaur orbiting a planet. There are clouds with thunder and lightning, and

It's because there is not a moral counterargument. The counterargument is racism, classism, nationalism, and tribalism. These are not things people will say out loud.

Which is why this narrative of caring about his family is so absurd. A defense contractor is in the business of war. In supplying the war machine, you should be living in a fortress. Tall walls, check your drink for poison, live in parano

A AMD Ryzen AI Max Pro 396 will get 50t/s with Qwen3.5 35B. In addition, the these local models are very, very, very sensitive to the template used. Make sure it is correct. I was using the wrong template and it would answer but felt

I have been running nearly the same experiments for the same reasons. It has been a lot of tweaking and patching because I am on a Strix Halo system with amd gfx1191, but the LLM component is working nicely. The evaluation I use is having

Use of an app is not necessarily the problem. Requiring Google Play or the App Store is. We should be able to use apps without being in walled gardens.

Recursive self-questioning predates external tools and is already well known. What is new is broad access to a low cost, non retaliatory dialogic interface that removes many social, sexual, and status pressures. LLMs do not make people th

I am not insinuating anything. Road management should be administered by federal and state agencies, including the administration of tolls when they are foolishly utilized. It should not be a for profit venture, it is a mechanism of taxati

Disagree. While what you're saying does seem like a direct solution (congestion), it is the wrong solution. The solution to congestion is robust public transit. Full stop. If a light rail is more comfortable and a faster experience th

Yeah nice in theory but the reality is far from this. In order to implement tolls, you need several components involving middlemen. This includes frontend software, backend, payment processing, transponder management, all the hardware invo

Correct. Tolls are a regressive tax on the working class. The rich don't even need to use the roads as much because they have other people delivering for them. When they need the road system, the tolls are nothing to them. The workin

Every single lifestyle item of a modern life, whether you have a car or not, depends on the road system. If you want food, products, or services, you depend on the roads. This means it should be taxed universally and equitably. We should

A group of very mentally ill, insecure people with a lot of material wealth control the internet and media. They get to write the narrative. We can analyze just one small tool in the belt of narrative control: censoring. If you've bee

Most people have significantly less than what we are spoon fed by media and the internet at large. Just as in history we learn of emperors and kings instead of the common person, most digital content is about the modern day lords, barons, e
