I”ve been pretty happy with this side effect of the agentic coding bubble.

I don’t think it’s any more facile to use the term “intelligence” to describe the synthesis engines that we call “AI” when we use the same word to describe the gradient-seeking behaviors of slime molds. It’s not general intelligence, but it

Yes, the bin for general waste is even labeled “burnables,” and in my experience that is where non-rigid plastic films go. (Films are very difficult to sort automatically; we landfill them here in SF.)

The FDA doesn’t “allow” snake-oil supplements. They have no authority over supplements.

Boeing actually offers a fascinating direct comparison. 787 Max has historically been assembled in two locations: unionized Renton, WA and non-union Charleston, SC. The Charleston planes were notorious for needing rework at Renton before th

I’d be hesitant to directly draw broad generalizations about unions across countries. Labor practices and historical context are very different, and the U.A.W. is a singular creature.

Anecdotally, if increasing resources improved outcomes, California would have fantastic education results, as would every purely economic intervention in low-median-income school districts. Teachers may be underpaid on a time/effort ba

Though they are absolutely right that I confused SC4’s BAT with SC3K’s.

Employment contracts are virtually nonexistent here in the U.S. While the norm is “40 hours”, actual requirements vary by employer, may or may not be communicated in writing, and can change at the employer’s whim. If you make under $107,432

SC3K’s art was not “crafted pixel by pixel.” It was rendered from 3DS Max. Maxis released a version of G-Max called the Building Architect Tool that included a template with the same lighting rig that they used for the in-game assets. This

I wonder if these are safety modifications. Batteries get hot when you charge them, which is uncomfortable in and of itself, but the added source of both thermal and electrical energy while under load might make thermal runaway situations m

Article I tribunals (I mistakenly called referred to Article IV earlier) are constitutional as long as their decisions are reviewable by an Article III court, which is clearly part of the legislative branch. So if an immigration judge rules

The first officer wasn’t solo-flying a 172 with a six-pack cluster. They were flying an airplane that will refuse to stall in normal law. The plane had switched to alternate law 2, but the indication to the pilots was an autopilot disengage

I’m not enraged by the term “immigration judge” any more than I am by the term “administrative law judge.” What I care about is whether immigrants are afforded due process.

I’m saying that if you have a WTF reaction, it’s a sign you need to learn about article IV tribunals. There’s a difference between being angry about the President’s actions, and being uninformed about the entire nature of the system.

The court’s conclusion was that this is because Air France and Airbus failed to sufficiently train the pilots.

Because they aren’t part of the judicial branch. Especially in political contexts, I’ve found it more and more useful to treat a “WTF” reaction as a signal that I might not have all the facts. It helps me avoid getting rage-baited.

The plane was actively telling them to pitch up. Every training they had received from Air France and Airbus told them that in normal law, the plane will not stall.

Each turn of the conversation, the entire history of the conversation is first tokenized. Each token is like a short ID for a very (multi-thousand-element) vector called an embedding. An LLM is built around putting all these vectors togethe

What makes this truly sad is that the federal government has had smartcard-based authentication (CAC) for decades. Yet because the public internet stack runs on passwords, so too does government infrastructure.

You also have control over your costs. It is reasonable to assume that tokens will cost significantly more in the near to medium future as the market consolidates and subsidies decline.
