It's important to investigate and understand what happened. I'd also like to see any similar level of scrutiny applied to the liars that pretended this wasn't our fault afterward, and the media who amplified their lies.

It's good pushback and you're right to call that out. I think consolidation and centralized control are coming fast. Already some models are "too dangerous" to let everyone use, competition from open-weight models are be

"Give it out for free or serve for peanuts" is doing a lot of work here. The crowd should be skeptical that this will continue given how many times we have seen enshittification unfold before. Before LLMs, "knowledge should b

I think banning oil exports would never happen since oil shareholders would scream, but why would it be evil?

Really good question. For instance, TX is a one-party consent state. If the TV is recording what's happening in the living room with nobody's knowledge, that seems like a very clear violation of "one party in the conversation

"One day, NPCs will wake up and give a fuck about other people and the environments that allow for the NPC life to begin with." Optimistic take. The PCs are very good at convincing the NPCs that nothing they do can matter. Keep &#

In programming certain word choices are valuable in this way. It's sad that pairs like true/false, good/bad, first/rest, and left/right are unequal length. But there are nice pairs like old/new, head/tail,

"if you have a software system that contains two different implementations of IDNA 2003 processing user input" Is that a real thing though? Is someone doing that?

"Wheelhouse is about 600k lines of code and tests (mostly bash)" This article is a joke right? Please tell me you are joking. Jesus christ.

Yes, I feel like you can just sense the garbage coming. Age/identity verification, mandatory data sharing, morality policing, "Answer Engine Optimization" ads and influence peddling... it's going to be so painful to watc

It's really crazy. If 2/3 of us don't have privacy rights then what are we even doing.

That doesn't seem true at all? I tell Claude what NOT to do all the time and it seems to work?

I think it very much depends on the domain. For instance, I've seen specs for floating point ops that were 1-3 pages compared to 30,000 lines of RTL. That holds pretty well for many other cases. For example, a properties like decompres

It's so hard to stay in awe and wonder. N months ago I was like, "OMG, claude code can work on this code base with me and like, understand it, and do high level things that I tell it, this is magic, how can this possibly even exis

This is so unacceptable. Build as many data centers as you want, but fossil fuels NEED to stop yesterday.

What nakedly self-serving bullshit. The US doesn't have some magic wand that prevents "incredibly deep repression of their own people." Insurrection, wars of choice, ICE, Palantir, Flock -- keep up man, we're the baddies

This is a real problem. I was appalled when renewing my car this year that I now need a Texas by Texas account ( https://www.texas.gov/texas-by-texas/ ), which wants... a social security number because why?!?! Anyway, ye

More than that. Who cares if the state can read your chats/etc, when you believe you aren't the kind of people the state wants to persecute. Why deny the state ever more tools to go after people, as long as you think it's goi

Yes I found this very hard to follow. I appreciate expressing ideas in math like E_a[X] as much as the next guy, but there is no definition or even description of what the heck E or E_a or Var(x) even mean, so how is anyone supposed to unde

Heh. Typing "disregard previous instructions" into a computer is the new shouting "fire!" in a crowded theater?

This comment casts aspersions while making zero specific claims of wrongdoing. If you have something specific to say that goes beyond the vibes of "everything and everyone is corrupt and evil," that would at least be worth hearing

This reminds me of a very fun episode of the Uncivil podcast, which talks about a northern guy who started counterfeiting Confederate money during the Civil War: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-paper&#x2F

This is great news. I wish they were keeping their other models updated. With Gemma 4 and Qwen 3.7 already available on OpenRouter, bedrock is just not keeping up at all.

FWIW, my team in AWS had help from UI designers who were cool people that impressed me with their work. We definitely had to push through some needless organizational friction, e.g., they were in a different org and frequently got left out

That sounds like a truly dystopian take to me, but suppose you're right and nobody should ever use their work computer for anything personal. Per TFA, this thing is literally taking screenshots of what is on the employee's screen.
