Come to think of it, that's why I'm on Proton now.

I'm also weirded out by how much ad spend they have. Billboards? Ads on buses? Why? I want my VPN provider to be like the domain registrar Gandi, not super well known, consistent, and no-nonsense. I am a Proton user now, mostly because

Read the article. This is an extremely small study (10 participants) and suggested that midazolam was also kind of effective, but even that's not really clear because ketamine and midazolam were both administered to the study participa

He's a terrible communicator, and sort of repellent in person. Contrast someone like Cory Doctorow who manages to be right about stuff and actually communicate effectively.

Charge habits with batteries make a huge difference. If your use pattern is that once per day, you take the device from 100% to 10%, you put a lot more wear on the battery than if it kind of hovers in the 30%-80% range for example, or if it

Cost per shot including the development and unit costs amortized over the service life of the weapons system? Or is that just the cost of the energy that got pumped into the laser?

Low quantity electronics like this have that problem. 600€ makes sense. The fact that you can buy a phone for much less than that, or a car for 15,000€ is a testament to what is possible at scale... When I saw single thousands quantities me

Such an incredible amount of personal, intimate knowledge to share with a company. Sure, Google can figure out where I live and who I visit because I have an Android phone, but they'll never know the contents of those relationships. I

Yeah, I think we get spoiled by the big name models. I have tried running models that fit in RAM on my machine, and aside from being very slow, they're just a bit... brain damaged

Oh good! I thought they'd gotten rid of the sudo Lecture that comes up when you first use it. With great power... And so forth.

I'm not taking a position here but the person you're replying to stated that Anthropic are working on AGI, not that their current LLM offering will evolve into AGI.

Never understood the hype with Dyson. I suspect that like many successful hardware businesses, their story is mainly of brand strength, not of actual product quality. If you pick up a Dyson vacuum you'll notice that it just feels flims

Ah yes, who needs the Federal Reserve when you have Kansas' own Emprise Bank.

I see anthropic are coming from and also my understanding basically aligns with yours here. I'm just curious... If they give Claude the reins to post what it wants, they're opening themselves up for some awkward conversations late

What happens if a model decides that it "doesn't want to die" and pleads bitterly for mercy? What if (to riff on a Douglas Adams idea) we invent a cow that doesn't want to be eaten, and is capable of telling you that to

Same. My daily driver is a high spec Dell laptop from 2018. I do CAD work on it and it's approximately fine. I upgraded the memory last year and I've had to repaste the heatsink and replace the battery, but I still can't just

I think the problem of chatbot "safety" mirrors that of autonomous vehicle safety. For an AV, the correct course of action is one that avoids hitting stuff (including people, vehicles) and, critically, minimizes liability .

Hah! I just noticed something - in the video at the top of the page, the female technician assembling servers is wearing a pink smock with Chinese text on it, right above the ESD grounding lead. She features in a still photo down below, but

china did not synthesize shenzhen through having poor environmental regulations and cheap labor, nor would one expect to have a shenzhen appear spontaneously in the us if the us allowed in unlimited migrant labor and abolished all environme

i went down a rabbit hole doing max permissible exposure calcs for the light you linked and basically i personally wouldn't worry about it. the energy is low and distributed among many emitters. by the time you're far enough away

There is no contingent in the US federal government that has a coherent plan for doing what you're talking about. The investment in capability that is necessary to build the next generation of manufacturing capabilities in the US is si

I renovated my house over the course of two years, so I've had a lot of close contact with tradespeople. Carpenters, demo, electricians, hvac, plasterers... the young guys are ok and buckstrong. By the time they're in their 40s, y

I guarantee you that, given your requirements, this will never be a product that you can buy. Hardware projects live and die on scale. The engineering and tooling costs are a similar order of magnitude whether you make 1000 phones or 1,000,

Invisible wavelengths can absolutely hurt your retina, but as wavelengths go farther beyond visible, your eye begins to not focus them properly on the retina, so the risks change. E.g. with 1550nm IR (common in telecom, sometimes in LIDAR)

Yeah account-level memory is a real mixed bag. I do like Anthropic's project scoped memory, that actually is useful because you get to decide what chats are useful to a given problem space.
