Oh wow, I'd like to see this. Any prompt which reliably triggers it? (Seahorse emoji comes to mind!)

Mathematical proofs tend to assume that they are built on perfect foundations (you have to stop the proof somewhere!). Unfortunately, proving that the software is correct just means you need to find a flaw in a deeper layer.

Why would they use Haiku for anything? They aren't paying for the tokens.

pinned = forced in some way tree is green = tests built and ran without error landed = surprisingly, not "made a commit" but rather "finished the code." It might be confused because we're using Perforce and not git.

Coming soon: a side-channel timing attack which completely invalidates this result

Has anyone ever tried giving LLMs a backspace? I have long wondered if their responses could be better if they had the ability to correct earlier parts of their text. Imagine how much harder it would be for us to write coherently with no ba

I thought the latest Bluetooth protocols were basically designed to hand off to an ad-hoc Wi-Fi connection between the two devices after the initial handshake. (Might be an oversimplification of the real protocol)

This pattern predates AI. It's just something they do with all idle radars when new OS releases launch. The fact that it was bucketed under iOS means they did literally zero investigation.

"Despite giving Apple 100% reliable steps to reproduce, they asked me if the issue still occurred in the latest beta, and if it does, then I should submit an iOS sysdiagnose." No one looked at your repro steps, and no one research

Because it's AI slop? Not that surprising.

I did five, then gave up and just pressed A until I reached the end. I got 3/5 right.

Honestly, making Ricky Gervais upset might be the most redeeming thing in this product.

Not even in a clever way. The bots don't actually seem to carry any personality traits; they're just ways to label <session_0001> and <session_0002>. I won't accept it as an Office parody if Dwight can work well w

Sure, we can't all agree on "the best tacos in San Diego" but we all know the answer isn't Taco Bell.

Nope--I was on vacation, walked to the place, and saw it looked like a disaster, but then everyone was hungry and we were already out and about. Too late for more research. I picked a place the old-fashioned way, by walking around and seein

This is a business--they have cloud and a sales team.

Google could not care less; this feature does not make money and adds support burden.

I'm not sure AI fully dodges it either. I've asked questions like "best [cuisine] in [place]" and the AI answers with a truly mediocre restaurant that has an amazing website.

"Able to find things that regular search cannot" is pretty much the value-add for AI in Google as well. The blue links are becoming less and less helpful.

To be fair, it was positioned as "have a fun chat," not "truth telling genius oracle that makes no mistakes."

"... these incidents make clear that we must accelerate this work." It feels like GitHub maybe needs to slow down? 'We must change things faster' is a wild way to start off an eight hour hard-down postmortem.

The camera make and model wouldn't tell you the lens parameters. The EXIF would, but that was already covered in the triplet.

Just by reading your actual messages it's easy to see that you didn't write the blog post entirely by hand.

"No EXIF, no GPS, no camera make or model." Yeah, a human definitely wrote this. Nothing fishy here. (Why would the camera make or model matter???)

Government-backed bonds are the intended zero-risk option. You know exactly how much you will get and it is designed to track inflation (sorta). If you don't believe in that, precious metals are another way to go. I don't personal

TIL that the Recommended section of the Start menu uses React Native. What a world. Why...??

It's still faster than Android?

Requesting ultracode is basically asking for maximum token usage. If you want to limit consumption, use medium or high.

I've tried to replace Amazon with other vendors where possible. You can get partway there, but half the time, my orders get delivered from an Amazon warehouse anyway. Smaller vendors have basically surrendered logistics to Amazon entir

Feature work is frankly much easier than scaling and bullet-proofing.
