There's a river of cash flowing to the pockets of the wealthy and to the megalomaniac projects of hyperscaler, but not to drip a few pennies onto the pockets of people providing such an important public service as journalists.

What are these messages? Threatening your ex-wife? Plotting to commit arson? Or saying you don't like immigrants? They all fall under this umbrella, yet the vast majority of people would agree the first two are criminal in nature.

It's all slop. Look at the first two examples in their own announcement : fitness and wellness slop from websites like "top 11 exercises to do when you work from home", and god damn sneaker drops and what bloody influencer

You need Claude Code to copy a string into your config/make file?

Some of the complexity that comes with this really comes from the complexity of IEEE734 itself, plus the fragmentation of alternatives at lower precision. I would have loved if the article mentioned the efforts at integrating Posits [0] in

If a group of people claim to be "divinely inspired" but then they do the same evil more or less as other groups, that leads me to conclude that they are not uniquely favoured by a god.

Wow, in 36 years of scientific and technological progress, life expectancy went up and so did raw economic output? Again, what does that have to do with exploitation?

What do you mean? Pulling a few camera feeds to track down or identify a theft occurring at a known location at a roughly known time is a few minute's work. It's worth the value of the bike let alone the value of prosecuting a cri

You're right that's what it should be, as me and my kid's right not to get trampled to death beneath a 2m hood clearly trumps your "right" to drive a 4-ton machine at unsafe speeds wherever you please. But sadly t

If you are citing a work you paste a citation to that work. If you are bullshitting you ask an AI to come up with a citation. Jesus, there is zero reason to ever "generate a citation" if you are not, in fact, commiting fraud.

> The codebase is otherwise largely the same. The same architecture, the same data structures. How can you possibly verify this, if a 1M line patch was written over 7 days? It's at best a hunch (vibes?), and at worst a lie.

Fair enough. Streaming my location and an OBD dump to Google whenever I'm driving is a non-starter for me, so I'll stick with the aux cord!

The top comment in the thread explains it pretty well, so please don't pretend it's anything else. The point is they went from "chillax, it's just an experiment" to "we'll switch languages via a 1M line vi
