One of the few times a 'blink comparator' feature in image viewers would be useful!

I forgot which probe and celestial objects it was, but at one point NASA was investigating a moon around Jupiter or Saturn, thought about dumping it there for nice photos (it was out of fuel iirc) and then they realized that it might have l

It depends entirely on what one values and what one trusts to persist, good or bad. For all its virtues and faults 'Europe' tends to value people quite well, both culturally and legalistically.

Pay is decreasing and cultural WTF's are increasing, America is less attractive than it was and it may be a splash of cold water for some. Not to mention that little known Trump era tax change regarding software engineering expenses.

any chance that video from the mistral CEO is online anywhere? I'm harboring a deepseated respect for them as time rapidly moves on.

curious of a take given that TCP/IP is american but the british(you?) often claim HTTP as your own (despite it arguably being a pan-european CERN project).

Could not agree more. Hilarious that we somehow now live in a world in which Europeans are underrated.

bizzare take, especially given that unicorns are purely fictional entities.

Oh that's cool! I actually was playing around with shadowmodding a bit. When you have to parse some of the worst messages you've ever (potentially) seen it's helpful to have an AI not reject your request.

Your moneyview is partially correct but this is also a very, VERY deep cultural mindset Europeans don't take so well to "haha this quarter was bad guess we will lay off 15% of the office" There is a very, VERY good reason tha

people aren't thought experiments in ancap-economics textbooks. irrational behaviour is core to not only people but pretty much every lifeform on the planet.

It's sad but Usury/Interest is often exploiting two bifurcated groups of people -- those who are trusting and those who are desperate.

It's called nickel and diming and the term originated when they stopped being something you could buy a sandwich with. I'm not surprised at all, a few billions is paltry. I think i have a few subs that i've forgotten about f

The other replies are spot on but in general -- Alignment induces cost, no matter WHAT type of alignment, even 'neutral' versions like instruct for chatbots The 'common' example that people reference is, for instance, ma

sorry, i apologize for using the term milquetoast without context ;) it just kind of means "overly apologetic, meek, timid, unwilling to ever voice anything that may be even mildly controversial", etc. It apparently originates fr

if by entertainment you mean roleplay, that's actually seemingly a huge market which is not served due to reasons. A lot of women seem to be interested in it too, maybe even more than men.

I have a linux box which i run it locally for batch processing, otherwise i just run it through poe (serves as a good comparative website endpoint for differently models i find.)

Mistral IMO: 1. Doesn't have to pay the obscene alignment tax that OpenAI/etc have to (something between 20-50% of from what i understand) nor worry nearly as much about """the brand""" and the baggag

I forgot about that targeted malware for a while, thanks for jogging my memory. Imagine now if he had done that towards Israelis or Arabs/Palestinians and how both the internet and governments would react. He only got away with such bl

Have there already been cases where a project switched part of their codebase to protest something(whatever it may be) and it resulted in lower quality/security issues, or is that something we'll see in the future? Seems like an i

I know that it is zeitgeist exploiting to say this, but seeing Boeing listed and not Airbus really says something to me. Lockheed being listed makes me wonder if the FBI/CIA really will (further) step up on cybercrime, because you now

Why is this written so.. poorly? This is not the dialect of English I expect from an aviation organization.

They're fairly well known in europe after the MAX debacle, I don't know how it is stateside though.

Why is this post greyed out? Musk is being a broken clock, he's right, even if it's for the wrong reasons. It's aviation, SAFETY before ALL else. This is, along with things like Medicine, one of the very last industries that

Perhaps the government should create a fund which guarantees a hefty reward for whistleblowers on aviation companies/airlines, enough that they don't need to fear for their own livelihood and can effectively retire without loss of

Even if it normally wouldn't be news, given the shitshow that the MAX is and how they're now trying to get MAX-10 certified, this might be a case of the media being a functionally broken clock. The FAA should have hell to pay if t
