Bingo. Hopefully there are some business opportunities for us in that truth.

Just tell it that the tests can't be changed. Honestly I'd be surprised if it tried to anyway. I've never had it do that through many projects where tests were provided to drive development.

Yes.

I had a somewhat experience with Claude coding an Occam parser but I just let it do it's thing and once I had presented it with a suitable suite of test source code, it course corrected, refactored and ended up with a reasonable soluti

All DCs are big concrete rooms that can supply so much power per sq area and remove so much heat per sq area (the two related of course since the heat comes from dissipating the power). Variation is just in density of whatever sort of fancy

When I met him unfortunately I didn't realize how important he was (1987). The place where I worked used formal methods to verify the design of an FPU, in collaboration with the PRG. iirc the project was a success. I never heard of for

This is the first time I've seen anyone looking for a reason! Isn't the reason manifestly obvious? They're bombing their enemies. The ones that lobbied Trump to attack Iran, and that host US defense assets.

Exactly what it says? 80% of the oil extracted from the ground is burned. The other 20% is used to make things.

Real data is delayed to give the investor class time to "reallocate assets". Also anyone publishing a story saying there's a rececession knows they will receive the Emperor Palpatine lightning treatment from the Orange Jesus.

Not sure that makes sense. As amazing a technical feat as AGI will be, does it follow that s.tons of money will immediately be made? That's not really how humans act, historically. Any migration to new technology takes years, decades.

> something stupid an AI did in their codebase I have LLMs write code all day almost every day and these days I really haven't seen this happen. The odd thing here and there (e.g. LLM finds two instances of the same error path in co

Perhaps I shouldn't say this but I feel that with the current LLMs I've found "my people" :)

Uh what? Where's all that "freedom" we heard about for the last 80 years?

It'll be repaid to whoever paid it in the first place (typically an importer, not you unless you're an importer). So any beef to do with not getting a refund should be directed at the domestic supply chain. I note that Costco has

It was always "criminals only", but the problem is they have quotas for the number of immigrants to deport, and can't (at all) get to those quotas by just deporting criminals.

That's not the point. The number of white European people arrested and shackled by CBP/ICE is very small. But it's NOT ZERO! So at the margin plenty of potential tourists would prefer to go some other place where that chance

Always good to see an A/B test done.

Not just Canada. Everyone is wondering if they'll be arrested and thrown in the gulag. Obviously the chances of this happening are fairly small, but if you have an alternative non-fascist country to visit, why take the chance?

I'm in the US and even here this is absolutely not true. It has disappeared as a government concern, because the government has been subverted by vested interests.

That tells you one bit was changed. It doesn't prove that single bit changed due to a hardware failure. It could have been changed by broken software.

There are already tools and techniques to validate served JS is as-intended, and these techniques could be beefed up by adding browser checks. I've been surprised these haven't been widely adopted given the spate of recent JS-pois

Interesting that GitHub recognizes "Roff" as a language.

Doubtful since any sane person knew the tariffs were not legal and would eventually be overturned.

The reality distortion field at full strength. Neither Apple nor Xerox "invented" overlapping windows.

Reminds me of when in my youth I thought it would be a good idea to re-tile my bathroom in the style of a Mondrian. This because I'd found that white, red, green and yellow tiles were available at low cost. Good to know that bathroom i
