1. I actually disagree. I think teasers should be free but websites should charge micropayments for their content. Here is how it can be done seamlessly, without individuals making decisions to pay every minute: https://qbix.com&

Pssht, so little? With AI you're supposed to have a huge data center and pay them thousands of dollars to process many, many tokens. That way you are doing it right, 24/7. How else are we going to cover these costs? https:/&

Basically it's like this: the more constraints you have, the more freedom you have to "vibe" code and if someone actually built AI for writing tests, catching bugs and iterating 24/7 then you'd have something even c

You asked why everything decentralized is about blockchain. Then you proceed to say Autonomi says “NOT blockchain” and still that triggers you? I think the problem may be on HN for being triggered by certain words. Here is why. True anonymi

The war on end to end encryption is far bigger and more global than you think, and you’re the boiling frogs. Here is the evolving map: https://community.qbix.com/t/the-global-war-on-end-to-end-en... It is very unlikely

Well, I’ve been in the decentralization space (and mocked for it by some on HN) for a decade at least. When Moxie wrote a thoughtful critique of decentralization, I wrote an article addressing his criticisms and spoke about why decentraliza

Why are some people always trying to defend LLMs and say either “humans are also like this” or “this has always been a problem even before AIs” Listen, LLMs are different than humans. They are modeling things. Most RLHF makes them try to ma

Alright mate, so for the 99.9% of cases encryption at rest is enough. For data you truly don’t want cloud providers to see, just use end-to-end encryption. But no one has to run their own servers. The only reason I see them doing so is to p

No, I am serious. Do you have links to stories of AWS breaking into EC2 instances to eg read RAM for data that is encrypted at rest? And even if they do, this would present an issue for privacy, but the protocols would still enforce their o
