People who buy luxury kitchen knives are exactly the type of people who would choose not to buy a product because it is associated with crime. People who buy (and make) firearms are... pretty close to the exact opposite.

Any knife vendor who 1. Found out you used their knives to go murdering 2. Sells knives in a fashion where it's possible for them to prevent you from buying their knives (i.e. direct to consumer sales) Would almost certainly not "

That rewrite also completely changed the meaning of the comment Version 1: Rights of non-MAGA supporters are being eliminated while implying rights of MAGA supporters are being preserved. Version 2: Rights of MAGA supporters are being elimi

I suspect we are still at the stage where for every story like this there's an offsetting story in the other direction of "I (more commonly reported as my coworker) tried to implement something with AI, messed it up, and ended up

I'd generally be quite surprised to see LLMs spam unsafe blocks, both because that's behavior that I haven't observed while using them and because that contradicts my mental model of them where they imitate the styles of code

Attention is perhaps the limiting factor, but being able to look in two directions at once would help, and would help greatly if we had more attention capacity. E.g. anytime you change lanes you have to alternate between looking behind, bes

Also Mistral, which is definitely building AI assistants even if they aren't quite as successful so far.

Hmm... Ok I checked the pricing page and funnel is available in the free tier (limited to 3 users) but not the $6/user/month tier - which you need for more than 6 users... strange pricing structure but I guess I see the logic. A

I've used serve/funnel on the tailscale free tier... definitely agree that the team size limit seems like it would move companies to the paid plan though.

They're probably running it with a claude code like tool and it has a local (to the tool, not to anthropic) copy of the git repo it can query using the cli.

Their chips aren't actually square, they get an extra 2.9mm in both dimensions by having slightly rounded corners. They are wasting the rest of the circle though yes.

Magnus obviously has the will to compete, he competes all the time. Elite sporting events are absolutely obliged to chase talent, just like any other business is. If they don't, they quickly stop being the elite sporting event. There&#

Magnus not participating in FIDE events seems to have absolutely nothing to do with his longevity, it just means that FIDE is no longer meaningfully hosting THE world championship because they failed to attract the talent.

You're making the counter argument. Government funded media may be cut or controlled in times of (wannabe) dictators, but the same applies to privately funded media (see Kimmel, Colbert, CBS, Washington Post, etc)

Theft of attention. Your attention shouldn't be the website you visits to sell.

I assume you're primarily referring to freedom of expression? I take the view that it doesn't include the freedom to pay people to carry a particular message so long as the restriction on paying is neutral as to the content of the

Of course they have. Off the top of my head examples include: Grants in the form of tax dollars (e.g. arxiv). To benefit the authors reputation (e.g. numerous scientists, developers, etc personal sites. zacklabe.com as a useful example). As

I don't think we have a right to a business model. Either you figure one out for your particular site (selling access to the website, donations, etc) or you don't and stop and either is ok.

kvark was also involved in the initial implementation of zed's blade backend... which probably contributed.

The invite-tree they discuss is likely an effective measure. It provides a way of tracking back influxes of bots to responsible pre-existing account(s) and banning them too. And if someone is responsible for inviting many of the pre-existin

Those people came to those views somehow. I'd hope that a less radicalizing social media platform might move them away from those views. Finding common ground isn't just about figuring out where people currently agree, it's a

I don't think it's a dumb question at all. Storing thermal energy separately from electrical energy would make plenty of sense if we could store the thermal energy better (cheaper, lighter) than the electrical energy. A quick sear

Is there some particular relevance to this article? There's a lot of reasons to think that that battery might be a scam... unlike most batteries, including sodium ion ones... If it's not a scam it will certainly upset the battery

It's the majority, but overwhelming or not surprisingly appears to depend on car model, at least per some calculations someone on reddit ran [1]. I'd add though that rolling resistance tends to be higher, on average, in winter too

Energy density matters a lot for many applications, including customer electroncs and EVs. Sodium ion is at a fundamental disadvantage (sodium is heavier than lithium). I don't doubt that sodium ion has a place... but whether it takes

6x price/token, so 15x price/second, and only at the API pricing level, not the far cheaper (per token) subscription pricing. Definitely an interesting way to encourage whales to spend a lot of money quickly.
