what kind of bandwidth/latency between GPUs would one need in that setup to not be bottlenecking? What you're describing sounds quite forgiving. Is it forgiving enough that we could potentially connect those GPUs over a LAN, or

Those are all still far more positive than negative examples, even if they each spawned small contingents of people who don't get the irony. Plus, if you know that's gonna happen anyway, then steer the dumb ironic interpretations

If you want an API, have Claude procedurally test actions and then write a pyautogui/pywinauto/autohotkey etc script to perform it instead. Have it auto-test to verify and classify the general applicability of each action. Repea

Distinguishing between malice and ineptitude at the systemic level is nearly impossible. If the OP's type of comment makes you uncomfortable, you might be leaning too far into putting blame on ineptitude by default, instead of a health

Agreed with OP, the security is basically nonexistent anyway due to Forgot Password flow making email the authority regardless. Sure, add a user/pass flow in addition for convenience and added security (i.e. delay the 3 minutes it ta

Send that code autofilled into the destination url form so it's a second POST click to login and sounds good.

WELL FUCK YOU TOO! - jk, I agree. Password option should be there still for saving sessions and avoiding this crap beyond the first registration (if you remember password), but I just meant this should be the baseline expectation of login

Hah this blew up. tbf I meant instead of any Forgot Password or Send Authentication Code or whatever mess - if you can remember your password, do that to save more time. Still, the loop to hit up email is so fundamental now the rest are se

Oh I dont mean do it instead of passwords (if you remember them), but just as an alternative to the Forget Password or Authenticate dialogs using security codes. Should just be a "LOGIN HERE" mashable button

Agreed. Do password login option too if you remember it - all work - but point being just make it a giant "LOGIN HERE" button that just does the thing as mindlessly as possible.

At this point why not just pass a one-time url link to your email address, and have it be a single click to login? Have it expire within 10 mins if not used, and be one-time use disposable. Still, anyone who has the link initially should

Investors need to stop looking at AI as a path to profits, and more as an enormous risk to the profitability of every other business. If AGI gets hit, it's probably not going to stay monopolized for long, nor is it going to be market

To be fair there is a certain level of blindly-pragmatic "so AI can help me with programming - so what! It takes just as long to converse with it as for me to code it myself" - which is mostly true. But I think those people fai

You're right, there are a number of avenues that are viable alternatives to the gpu monopoly. I like the fact that these can be made with just mass-printed multiplication (and in ternary computing's case - addition) gates which re

Yeah the moral step up from the status quo is still laudable. Open weights are still much improved over the closed creepy spy agency clusterfucks that OpenAI/Microsoft/Google/Apple are bringing to the table.

You don't have to remove the sensible regulations. You need to make enforcement of regulations and the approval process easy, low risk, fast, and cheap - instead of the typical multi-month (or year) bog down that most planning departm

Or increase planning department funding with higher emphasis on throughput. It's the bureaucratic delay (nearly a year for approvals or revisions in many places) that causes much of the pain, not the regulations themselves.

Linear can mean two things though: cause-and-effect reality, which, sure seems to be the case. But also - uniform dilation of the experience of time. Which, arguably, we already play with day to day in many subtle ways, and in every conve
