The same argument applies to not including copyrighted code. I can't possibly know if a contribution is a direct copy of some private code somewhere, but it's still reasonable to have a policy against it.

My memory of twenty years ago says the dark-grey pins were 1 stud wide on one side, and half-wide on the other, and low-friction like the light-grey ones.

Are the jobs out there actually paying people more?

> high value contributors won't follow it High-value contributors follow the rules and social mores of the community they are contributing to. If they intentionally deceive others, they are not high-value.

Making a decision on principle is the opposite of petty, isn't it?

9 times outta 10, when you get somebody vagueposting about "I was fired for NO REASON," they're just incapable of actually admitting the reason.

Just pre-install the NVIDIA layer on the filesystem instead of docker-pulling it for every single machine.

It's not that not having hobbies makes you not worth befriending, it's that having hobbies is one thing that makes people more interesting, and makes it easier to make friends.

> How many "I deleted the prod database" stories have you seen? Humans do this too. Humans generally do it on accident. They don't preface it with "Let me delete the production database," which LLMs do.

Yes, I don't believe we should pre-emptively "dispose of" them, as if we were talking about garbage instead of human beings.

No, they would be allowed to resume working on a nuclear weapon program, if a further treaty was not reached.

Studies seem to indicate that for every gun they find, they miss at least two more.

Rhetorically: why is it "implicitly approve" instead of "implicitly disapprove?" The only thing you know about them is that they did not vote. Even using your assumption of their beliefs ("both sides are the same&qu

Safe for the aggressors, I mean. If war is easy and cheap for us to wage, we will do more of it, and likely make the world a worse place.

I think it's the opposite. The human cost of war is part of what keeps the USA from getting into wars more than it already is - no politician wants a second Vietnam. If war is safe to wage, then it just means we'll do it more and

Perhaps. It should do the opposite though - you've likely got enough in the bank that you don't need to work a day in your life again.

Maybe it's bad that Anthropic wants to embrace the Department of War?

Personally, I'd rather that my country (USA) be taken over by China than bomb innocents in the Middle East.

It also doesn't include the amortized cost of training the models, as far as I can tell. I believe I heard that training the models took more energy than total queries against that model, but I could be mistaken.

Yeah, exactly. ChatGPT et al provide "advice as a service," and charge up to hundreds of dollars a month for it. (And the free tier is just a loss-leader to make money). If these companies intend to profit off of giving advice, it

Seems like a good bill, at least directionally. If it's a crime to provide advice of this nature without a license, then chat bots shouldn't be dispensing it either.

The MinRX regex matcher appears to be new for this release, replacing the older regex matchers. The title seems a bit misleading, in that regard.

I agree with your post, but in practice, couldn't you get back that efficiency by setting T = UInt8Array? That is, write your stream to send / receive arrays. My reference point is from a noob experience with Golang - where I was

No, a fistula is different than a hernia. If you think of your abdomen as a bag full of tubes, a fistula is a hole in the tube that connects to something else. A hernia is a hole in the bag, that the tube can poke through.

You can bend pitch on both trumpet and cello, it's the kind of skill you'd expect most highschooler players to have.

In what way? Certainly not for the models, who lose their income/job. Probably not better for the consumer, either.

Aren't hernias usually repairable by surgery? Both of the folks I know who had them had a pretty quick recovery.
