Researchers use whatever tools are available, you cannot complaint about imperfect methodology when Elon refuses to provide researchers access to their APIs in order to do a better job at assessing the state of the system. But for whatever

Give it time. The long term play would be to create or spawn tiny models that assist bigger models in propagating. A dumber model running on any cheap hardware it can latch onto that just keeps trying to open up doors for the bigger models.

When your OS is pure spyware, maybe it's time to look into switch to a less abusive option. The more people that switch, the stronger signal it sends. This tool is equivalent to dating an alcoholic that beats you whenever they're

Personally I had an account since 2008 and it got locked for no discernible reason. The website asks me to scan a QR code from my phone to prove I'm a human, and even after grudgingly installing the mobile app to try and complete this

Honestly, most of the videos I've seen of robots moving around quickly aren't actually doing anything useful. We've had really impressive tech demos for the past 15 years of robots dancing and jumping around. But I don't

Holy crap I've been using KDE for years and I didn't know about Meta+V. I'll pay it forward by sharing another shortcut: Meta+. for emoji picker.

There is a general pattern I've noticed, where people from past generations fail to share the lessons they have learned somewhere that is accessible for the next generations, so they are stuck repeating the lesson. In particular, the n

Even with items enabled across both categories, you're optimizing for different things. In the speedrun case you're optimizing for the fastest possible peak time, while with regular racing you're optimizing for the most consi

This manual has too many AI-isms so I couldn't force myself to read through it. I wish they had just published the text in whatever way they wrote it. Nobody is impressed by walls of text anymore, it's not a sign of quality or eff

A few months back I was playing around with win32 UI widgets and found one instance of surprising behavior which diverges from what is implemented here. To be clear this is not a dig on the project, and in particular the way it works on the

There is a weird sense of entitlement that AI data centers should be allowed to get built anywhere, but I don't think the positive case has been made that it's actually that much of a net positive in many locations. The US is mass

It all started off as obvious bullshit: in 2024 Elon Musk was claiming that he could cut $2 trillion in waste, fraud, and abuse. He then walked that back to $1 trillion in cuts, but he didn't even get close.

At least for me, the jump in productivity has resulted in building stripped down one-off software for my highly specific use-cases. You can use an LLM to create anything but you still need to know what it is that you're building, and y

A lot of people severely underestimate the value and impact of the arts because they don't produce immediately visible results. But artistic works are often a massive source of inspiration and they help people through dark times.

I think the more likely explanation is that he's just not as familiar with frontend web development and react, so he underestimated the difficulty. He was asking for help on Twitter for how to make pills inside of a text field. His fai

If I remember correctly, he wanted to fix the web search UI to match the features offered by Discord. He even crowdsourced some free work from his followers by asking them for help in implementing visual pills in text fields or something li

Microsoft actually offered free VMs with different OS and IE versions to make testing easier.

Yeah I could see it being a problem if you're doing work on closed source or repos with sensitive credentials. Since my usage has all been on open source projects I'd be happy to share everything I'm doing if it can help trai

Do you have a substantive reason why you dislike this? What is the problem if it's opt-in? Nobody is forcing you to share your usage if you don't want to. I'd prefer it if all the model builders could train on my usage rather

Someone should setup a plugin or something for Claude Code that makes it easy to log all inputs and outputs for people who are willing and interested in sharing their usage. I don't want Anthropic to be the only company that can train

I took up acrylics painting a few years back and I've been surprised by how much is lost in photos and videos. The two colors with which I've noticed this the most are ultramarine blue and prussian blue. I don't think it&#x27

I've been thinking a lot about soul cultivation as a concept, and the general structure of the soul, and doing a bit of writing on the topic. I feel like this topic is surprisingly under-discussed and under-explored relative to how imp

It helps to look at some figures to bring it into perspective instead of making off hand comments about how it's not a lot. Remember these are human lives! After some searching, I found estimates ranging between 600 thousand to 1.6 mil

Does anyone have advice for getting it down? I feel like no matter what I mix it with, it grosses me out and it becomes extremely challenging to get it down. I've tried pouring the dry powder in my mouth and just chugging it down quick

I was recently talking to someone about that! I wasn't sure if it was my imagination, but I felt like Opus 4.6 was way more diligent about looking things up online and making sure that its response was accurate. While Opus 4.7 seems co

That reminds me, do skilled players actually use the tilt keys? I remember being confused for years as to the purpose of tilt keys because I hadn't used a real pinball machine, and I can't remember it nudging the ball enough to me

It's good, I have this song I generated last year with Suno which stuck with me and I just tried having Flow generate a variant and it was acceptable. Sometimes the lyrics get modified for no reason. It would be better if you could con

It would be quite outstanding if MIT Plasma Science & Fusion Center released their core courses on OpenCourseWare. Considering the potential impact of this technology and how much it's needed, humanity doesn't seem to be tryin
