I was surprised to learn NIST also has a list of safer languages, and did not expect their suggestions: https://www.nist.gov/itl/ssd/software-quality-group/safer-la...

Commenting bc I had the same question. My impression of historical Python is that is an old, partially arcane language that due to D.S/AI is now popular; I would initially think it would be no better than those other interpreted. Pytho

Unrelated to the article: How is Scientific American as a 'source'? I'd like almost a "USA Today" of difficult topics. I'm quite interested in multi disciplinary science / engineering / bio innovation

I have a similar way of calling someone "low class". It is lack of manners that makes one low class, not lack of wealth.

People still mountain bike in Vegas, Arizona, TX etc during the summer - you might just go at night (for a night ride). I personally just drank a lot of water for lunch rides (I'd take a gallon for a ride) and electrolytes. Favorite ti

The model of governance may not be too your liking, and also be a bit heavy handed in some areas for my personal Christian beliefs - it is ok to have different belief systems... and let the states and citizens of the states decide where to

TX is really only hot in.... mid-late summer. Even then, everyone just uses A/C and alters their patterns for that time. Just like up north, where it can be quite cold in the mid-winter, and people alter their patterns for 60 days.

Does "diverse" just mean "not white"? If WA mostly "whites & Asian" then no - it is not diverse.

All great points. I don't recall the valley being that diverse, nor is ... for example, Boulder, CO and they're still hot spots. If tech is mostly "bro dudes", they're definitely not moving away from Austin due to &

A left leaning drain, yes. But that doesn't mean the state is any worse or better intellectually than the influx that has been occurring into Texas for years.

Gotta virtue signal! I don't know Elon's views - nor do I care. I drive a Jeep - and couldn't care less about the executive's political views & wouldn't be insecure enough to place it on a bumper sticker.

I am informed speculating, they are using it's own internal approach. Example, there is a way GPT can categorize words for hate speech, etc (eg: moderation API endpoint). I believe it does the same way with either provided content or k

The model is trained on large volume data, correct? Why would it get such a simple fact incorrect?

security - i have no idea if an executable will not be a malicious actor to my system. Dockerizing it, and removing access to system files - is the reason. I am not trusting that a tradition virus / etc scanner will find stuff hidden i

I don't know that OpenAI does what it to be regulated. The EU was looking to enforce laws into providing auditable transparency into how decisions are made for suggestions - and OpenAI is freaked out by that. If I recall, they were loo

One comment that made me think on HN a while back is something akin to "The average IQ is between 85 and 115, therefore AI will be akin to friends with IQ's between 85 and 115 giving you advice". So not that useful?

While I don't disagree with these points, wouldn't this mean some small number like 0.0000001% of all of us humans over humanities entire existence are not a net negative?
