Why is your comment exactly word for word of another comment just one level above in the comment chain?

This is a great distinction that I don’t think is getting talked about enough. “Open source” is probably the wrong term to use. Open “weights”, sure. If your only concern is how good is it at coding, then I don’t have an issue with using th

Okay, first off, without honestly reading the whole article (I tried but I just don’t have the patience), a quick red flag is the final analysis is only through Fable? Isn’t that inherently going to introduce unwanted bias? Whatever. Doesn’

You’re really going down a completely different rabbit hole here, that has nothing to do with with the technical content of the post. I’m not saying you’re right or wrong. I’m saying you aren’t adding anything to the discussion of the tech

I took the bait too and responded to this post, but it’s the third “green” screen name I’ve seen in the last couple days with the same text in the bio: “When dang and tomhow ban all of us humans, only bots will remain” So I’m afraid we’re r

If that’s what you took away from this, I’m afraid you missed the point. The question isn’t “will anyone actually play this?” No, they won’t. It’s a demonstration of running web technologies (on the front end, and rust on the back) on a dev

I like this distinction “dirt notebook”. As someone who was never naturally good at taking notes, I’ve only later in life made it a consistent habit. That being said I’m realizing all of my notebooks of “dirt” notebooks. There’s no rhyme

I’ve been using Firefox on mobile (and desktop) for years. I still don’t understand all the hate thrown at them. Whatever the downsides/ shortcomings people see, they are irrelevant to me, because I hate Google more & refuse to giv

I just mean no matter how hard anyone tries, I don’t see how useful these systems would be in practice. Sure they demonstrated a “working” system. Plenty companies sell products that “work” to one extent or another. But how useful is it rea

I could be wrong, but I just don’t see how trying to “detect” LLM generated texts is ever going to work. The only thing that makes any sense if you truly want to have confidence a human wrote it is some type of “proof of work“ system. I thi

That actually makes a lot of sense, and it helps me wrap my head around why the technique exists at all. As someone who didn’t get into web programming until 2015 or so, I didn’t quite understand at first the usefulness of this. But for si

I actually kind of liked the timer. It gave me a sense of urgency and exhilaration! Word games have never been my favorite, but this has a different feel. But I can see giving the option to turn it off, and fine tuning the timed mode. Seems

Yeah, I was lucky. My Samsung device is officially supported. As you said, since no one else has had the interest to do it for your Nokia, it’s basically up to you to make it work, since they rely on volunteers. I wouldn’t begin to know how

I don’t disagree with what you said, but that same logic applies to every frontier model, or even lower tier models. You are subject to their creators bias whether you like it or not. So what you are really saying is that you don’t accept S

I don’t mean to be rude, but did you with a straight face say the Chinese models “aren’t obviously active about their politics”? Ask one of those models a few critical questions about the CCP and Chinese history and see what kind of result

Recently installed LineageOS on an old Samsung tablet I had laying around. The thing was barely usable with whatever the highest Android version was it was comparable with. Now it works wonderfully! Really happy with it. Privacy features as

I don’t know that there’s anything wrong with the way the rule is written, the issue here is the way VAR was applied. VAR is only supposed to intervene when there is a “Clear and obvious error.” Balugun’s play certainly “endangered the safe

Interesting, thanks. I admittedly spent zero time looking into it :) I’m surprised open source contributions count for so much. first I thought was “is that something people actually list in as resume?”. But it looks like it pulls your GitH

You’re making a good point. I don’t disagree with what you’re saying. But I think my point got lost. I don’t agree with “Software development is where money is made for these labs”. Coders will inevitably eat up the most tokens & buy th

“I'm a little confused, is this an ATS system that anyone actually uses?” You read my mind. If the answer is “no”, then we can ignore this.

It’s hard to argue against the open weight models if your only concern is coding. Which, for many of us hackers here in this forum, it is. But I would like to point out that the overwhelming majority of people using LLMs aren’t programmers,

Yeah exactly. Drones have changed everything. What might have used to be routine is now no longer the case. Iran just has to project power in the media, and shoot some drones out at some boats every now and then and they effectively “contro

Yeah that’s a good point. I don’t disagree with that. I just think the US administration’s strategy is something totally different than anyone is talking about. I don’t think it’s a coincidence US aggression towards Venezuela, Cuba & Ir

Controlling the straight was never one of their objectives. Decapitating the regime and degrading their military capabilities was the primary objective. As others have said, the US can “reopen” the straight at any time they want. It’s not a

I’ve been experimenting with a pet project that aims to solve this problem. “AI detectors” are certainly unreliable, I’m not sure they’ll ever get to a state where you can trust them. I think concepts like this are the only reliable way to

Hey I hear you, I’m not trying to make this a political argument of who’s dropping bombs on who, or the American government is better than or worse than the Chinese. But what I said is a matter of fact. We can debate the semantics of wheth
