I tried to run it on my machine, and the release artifacts are missing entirely. Not going to spend time building from source.

Exactly what I was trying to get at. Thanks.

This is a court issue, not a technical one. This has so many side effects that weren't thought through (Using Gmail to draft a letter to your attorney, but gmail has enabled AI editing...). Seems dumb, and like it will cause quite a fe

Not OP, but UUID v7 is what you want for most database workloads (other than something like Spanner)

I hope our complacent companies get a shot of competition.

Why is knowing the identities of the people who have power over you a problem? I pay their salaries. Why is it a problem? They aren't doing anything they should be worried about the public knowing, right? Right?

What the heck type of software are you shipping that you can just avoid looking at the slop the LLM serves you?

Pipelines are incredibly vulnerable to being taken offline by an inexpensive long-range strike. You can't just put them in the middle of a war zone, especially when we (the US) have targeted that same type of infrastructure first.

You mean like both Obama and Biden did, much to the dislike of people on the left of the Democratic party?

You have a benchmark for output token reduction, but without comparing before/after performance on some standard LLM benchmark to see if the instructions hurt intelligence. Telling the model to only do post-hoc reasoning is an interest

That's roughly the export price for them I've seen reported, which I would assume would cover some of the R&D.

I have seen reports of high-powered lasers being used to sweep an area, cutting through the fiber optic cables on drones that have passed by but not yet reached their targets. But yeah, they do seem to always be future tech that just doesn&

Why are you giving these companies the benefit of the doubt when they've already shown that they do this in the past?

I don't trust any of the cloud providers enough to store a single copy of important data. I always have backups go to two separate S3 style endpoints in different providers, and my infrastructure is setup with scripts of some sort. I&#

There are a whole lot of normal people using mesh networking Wi-Fi routers. Honestly, most of the least technical people that I know are all using mesh networks because their houses require it.

Did you forget which thread we are on?

Or the vast satellite network we run. Pretty easy to see it's school children going in and out of the area.

I remember being quite young and my parents going to the one of the local computer shops and getting a beige box Pentium 3 at 450mhz that we used for a while. The shop put Quake on there because they had kids, and I remember the first time

This was an extremely limited leak. Just looked through the zip. I wouldn't doubt he does use his personal email for government purposes, but it's not in here.

You really think it's product people pushing enshitification rather than the people who want to financialize every aspect of our lives? Every product person I have worked with was just a SME in their domain, and pushed for a cohesive p

Those bribes to all the senators and reps really pays off, doesn't it? Sadly it's our tax dollars that it is paying off with.

Thanks for the thoughtful response, I appreciate it. Yeah, I remember the first time I encountered a spring project (well before boot was out) and just about lost my shit with how much magic was happening. It is productive once you know a w

This site definitely has a cohort of completely unhinged war mongers. The same names (and a bunch of random new accounts) never fail to show up to defend genocide or any other atrocities being committed.

I need a freaking EV that's flat towable. Not a single one released so far has been able to do that.

I really hope that we can resolve this peacefully. The people of Cuba don't deserve to be going through this.
