Agree, there does not have to be a smoking gun. Current and previous attempts are just ham-fisted. However, assembling a prompt out of inputs that are not as overt and test just as well as the overt prompt would help, plus not getting your

Lol I am sure OpenAI has a crack GTM team that's already in deep with the 3 letter agencies. DARPA has probably been going after this since Attention is all you need.

How do you say if an LLM is biased? I don't think there is any way to explain (in a way comprehend-able by humans) how the various weights shake out. So you test it like a black box, but IMO that suffers from the same pollution any of

Ads is v1 of how-do-I-make-money. I wrote about this a while ago privately, but IMO LLMs are about to be on par with the printed word for distributing low-cost, high-impact propaganda. It has never been cheaper or easier to influence millio

You know your app better than me, but here are some practical reasons for the typical B2C app: split deployments -- perhaps you want to see how an update impacts something: if error rates change, if conversion rates change, w/e. K8s ma

Took a while to find this. K8s is great, IMO most of the people with alternative setups are just rebuilding (usually worse) or compressing (specific to their use case) k8s features that have been GA for a long time. Spend some time learning

I think this is a reaction to the incredibly locked down ecosystem that most of these mfgs are pushing. However, the tech exists for a reason and is not inherently bad, the issue is the lock-in, the lack of choice and interoperability. IMO,

nah. governments around the world are hoovering up traffic today with the hope of a "cheap" (by nation state standards) quantum computer. Some of the secrets sent today are "evergreen" (i.e are still relevant 10+ years i

That's where the author is, and it's fine. IMO, these people tend to be better represented online, because getting a job through connections/influence/visibility is necessarily going to be louder than clicking submit on

As far as I know, you still cannot rename a resource. Insanity. I don't even work with it that much and have a laundry list of complaints about the weird little edge cases or funky pieces of documentation required to make things work.

man, I fucking love concrete. So cool. If you like concrete, check out [Tyler Ley's youtube channel]( https://www.youtube.com/@TylerLey/videos ). Anyways, I am curious why Meta is investing in this. They use a lot

good. There are plenty of laws, especially around technology, that deserve a good public mocking. At least in the US, you have 70+ year old lawmakers proposing (not even writing) laws they do not understand, passed to them by opaque groups

We're skipping a lot of discussion to focus on the UK, which has arms measures that exceed (in some, but not all, cases) even the far-fetched hypothetical I threw out above. Shinzo Abe is not a black swan in the context of Japanese pol

Let's assume you get rid of the second amendment and totally ban civilian gun ownership in the US. No legal firearms other than for the police/military, full confiscation of guns, etc. Let's also assume the public is broadly

This is called the shot exchange problem and is a very, very active area of work.

I am not arguing laws need to be binary-effective. You are right, most of the current laws are designed to slowly erode public support for the 2nd amendment by making the barrier to entry so absurdly high that the average person cannot feas

Regardless of whether this actually works (I have my doubts, but also understand it might be difficult to get range time on a device like this :)), it exposes a fundamental issue with arms control today. Small firearms are hundreds of years

SUSE made some interesting hiring moves lately, I am not surprised they are gearing up for a sale or major investment.

Vote with your feet. It is very easy politically to target those over the top 2-5% of income, but you better believe those tranches will be expanded in the future.

The rest of the FAANG has invested very heavily in cloud while Apple seems to be a laggard. GCP, AWS and Azure are all publicly available products, and cloud at Netflix, Meta seems very mature for a private offering. This is not a huge disa

Market for DDR4 is crazy, but not as crazy as DDR5. Also a symptom of how inelastic hardware demands are. You would expect the purest k8s people to just shove workers on older machines and completely dodge this crisis, but we don't see

As they say, the rules are written in blood. I don't think we should be disqualifying projects because they are not Mponeng-scale or complexity. I am not a civil engineer, but I did spend a bunch of time looking into building an underg
