This is the growing pain of any “employer” and I suspect lots of startups and features coming to fill the void. Start with a shared credit card. Then company credit cards. Then you layer in spend controls. Now repeat but for “agents”. Whet

I sometimes think about how much the CIA risked setting back global health when using a fake vaccination program to find Bin Laden.

Neat! Benford’s Law was the first topic I dove into in undergrad math that got a minor publication. Given how well known it is for forensic accounting I’ve always wanted to look into convictions and see if the “average” fraudster has wised

Many of the links have soft 404s as well. Seems like a dead site.

This is a very US centric view in part because of the low confidence in the American government to be able to effectively regulate negative impacts. https://hai.stanford.edu/ai-index/2026-ai-index-report/publi...

I’ve always liked this idea but I think it eventually ends back up with essentially our current system. Users have multiple devices so you quickly get to needing a sync service. Once that gets complex enough, then people will outsource to a

I use Fastmail and the main difference I notice is less effective spam filtering — it’s good but not as great as Gmail was. Overall it’s been an acceptable trade off and I’m glad years ago I switched to a custom domain for email so I can ha

In my experience it is a lot like finding time to work on "strategy". There's never really explicit time given, you have to make it in the day, and its often the most valuable time spent.

I am sympathetic to the argument that I’d rather elected officials that have a path to be removed have the control of use more so than unelected executives.

It will be interesting to see if this is an exit for investors and which ones. Given it wasn’t an acquisition but licensing.

While an earlier poster is over stating Ostrom’s Nobel prize winning work — it is regularly shown that averting the tragedy of the commons is not as insurmountable as the original coining of the phrase implied.

Many of the fly by night digital proscribes just jack the dosage to show rapid gains. Coupled with people lying on BMI to get a script is a bad combination and why it’s so obvious.

Whether QE is a mechanism in the brain still seems up for debate from the quick literature review I tried, but would love to learn more. Given the pace of quantum computing it doesn’t seem out of the realm of possibility to “wire up” to LLM
