Likely we'll just move to the Chinese models.

It reminds me of the net neutrality debate from a decade ago. I'm not American but I remember the discord and online hate towards Ajit Pai when they were repealing it. On one side you had the argument that repealing net neutrality woul

>You could be having your requests processed halfway around the world, or right next door, from one minute to the next Wow, any source for this? It would explain why they vary between feeling really responsive and really delayed.

Sci-fi mumbo jumbo.

The network latency bit deserves more attention. I’ve been trying to find out where AI companies are physically serving LLMs from but it’s difficult to find information about this. If I’m sitting in London and use Claude, where are the requ

I agree with you but the other side's arguments were pretty weak. The Leave side was for immigration control (which has not materially changed, we still have an influx of small boats, but have made it harder for educated, hard working

I use Claude Code in Zed via ACP and have issues all the time. It pushes me towards using the CLI, but I don’t want to do things that way because it’s a vibe coding workflow. I want to be in the drivers seat, see what the agent has done and

Yes, it’s a path I have considered/am considering, but it’s a 5 year commitment. I’m in my mid 20s and want to be able to travel without worrying if my residency application will be jeopardised. The years where I want the freedom of mo

This kind of thing makes me so cynical about democracy.

I could have written it more clearly. If you’re forced to upgrade dependencies to the latest version to get a patch, the upgrade likely contains new unrelated code that adds more CVEs. When fixes are backported you can get the patch knowing

I was too young to vote in the referendum. I’m incredibly angry about having lost freedom of movement. If the UK by some miracle rejoins the EU I will make the jump to Europe the very same day. Still looking for a way out in the meantime. T

I don’t know why the industry collectively accepted these security scanners (code + containers) that don’t even do the most basic of static analysis to see if the vulnerable code is reachable. Companies are breaking their backs trying to ma

Exactly what I thought. Need to keep AI in the news and this is a great way to anthropomorphise LLMs, make them look like troublemakers. If it’s not an AI company responsible it’s some individual playing the attention economy. Most people w

I worked on a project recently to organise my music and came across MusicBrainz. I wanted a reliable API to enrich my music with the proper metadata, but unfortunately the majority of my tracks weren’t in their database at all. Maybe the An

Well said. Freedom only ratchets one way, we always lose freedom until something monumental happens to reset. Something on the scale of a world war or revolution. The bureaucrats cooking up these laws never loosen the cuffs.

My pet theory is that consciously or unconsciously, democracies are being forced into identifying individuals behind speech online and controlling certain ideas. The status quo is a vulnerability, it makes it too easy for adversaries to man

The reason I find this so egregious is because I don’t want to use Claude Code! It’s complete rubbish, completely sidelines security, and nobody seems to care. So I’m forced to use their slop if I want to use Claude models without getting a

It feels like everyone is just collectively ignoring this. LLMs are way less useful when you have to carefully review and approve every action it wants to take, and even that’s vulnerable to review exhaustion and human error. But giving LL

The Aaron Swartz case is a tragedy, but I think this is kind of understating it. He broke into a private network and tried to cover his tracks which is hard to argue isn’t a cyber crime. I don’t think he deserved anywhere near 35 years thou

Nice project. I think it would be worth mentioning the legal implications, it’s illegally sharing content right? Best to run behind a VPN or on a VPS in a country that won’t come after you.

The whole thing just feels artificial. I don’t get why this bot or OpenClaw have this many eyes on them. Hundreds of billions of dollars, silicon shortages, polluting gas turbines down the road and this is the best use people can come up wi

I think you overestimate the capability and willingness of the average Discord user to go through that. Majority are not technical, they have no idea what self hosting is, what a VPS is, etc. Also self hosting creates an issue of balkanizat

I’m going the other way to OpenAI due to Anthropic’s Claude Code restrictions designed to kill OpenCode et al. I also find Altman way less obnoxious than Amodei.

It does. I’ve been writing Go for long enough, and the code that LLMs output is pretty average. It’s what I would expect a mid level engineer to produce. I still write code manually for stuff I care about or where code structure matters. Ma

Pretty sure he’s a complete fraud too. He associates himself with MIT despite only having had a short stint teaching non-credit classes. One of his papers was apparently so flawed it’s been wiped from existence. Plenty of info online if you

You could get rid of the need for the browser completely just by publishing an OpenAPI spec for the API your frontend calls. Why introduce this and add a massive dependency on a browser with a JavaScript engine and all the security nightmar

I watched a documentary a while ago and I think it said that Kim Jong Un's sister plays a big part in maintaining the regime. I wonder if she pulled some strings in this decision to select Kim Ju Ae as heir, perhaps because she's
