I don’t think there are very many k8s clusters running 100s of pods per node. The default maximum is 110. You can, of course, scale beyond this, but you’ll run into etcd performance issues, IP space issues, max connection, IOPS and networki

I don't think AI companies should be doing this, but they are doing it. All are opt-out, not opt-in. Anthropic is just changing their policies to be the same as their competition. xAI trains Grok on both public data (Tweets) and non-pu

Anthropic downloaded books from Library Genesis and The Pirate Library mirror. This is factual and reported on from court documents. What’s the angle that describes this as fair use? [0] https://www.businessinsider.com/anthr

I've also been very happy with Silverblue (an alternate flavor of Universal Blue, the same guts as Bluefin). It took a bit of an adjustment period to get used to using an immutable distro, but given that I run this as the sole OS on my

This sounds like a positive outcome? A manager built a proof-of-concept of a feature that clearly laid out and fulfilled the basic requirements, and an engineer took 30 mins to rewrite it once it's been specified. How long does it typi

I suspect the “don’t do that” prompting is more to prevent the model from hallucinating or encouraging the user, than to prevent someone from unearthing hidden knowledge on how to build dangerous weapons. There must have been some filter ap

“Productive” is an interesting word choice, because so many people seek out new causes, problems and politics in an attempt to be exactly that. Whether it is productive or not is up for debate, but what if the problem is the societal focus
