Data centers in space no longer look so unreasonable when the requirement is “redundancy against multi site bomb strikes mid op”. A little depressing when some pieces start to fit together.

A foe is also someone you might preemptively punch in the face if they get too close before you could determine if they actually meant you harm right then. I'd prefer not to label things such that I'm justifying the label's n

Ah, okay-- though that doesn't mean the author can't do better, if I'm not just being too nitpicky.

I’d encourage a change of labels away from “friend/foe”. It may seem minor but the subtle loaded nature of those paired terms encourages an adversarial stance rather than one of productive discourse. It’s not catchy so there’s probably

Horribly misleading title on this article, the actual research paper's headline is better. ( https://arxiv.org/pdf/2508.00902 ) But the research itself has flawed methodology if the goal is to get a precise model of

What’s the organizational rationale behind using the polygraph? Its reliability at detecting deception doesn’t on the face of things seem correct, with “bureaucratic inertia” not really enough to explain its persistence either. Is it someth

No, AI makes it easier to get boring ideas to more than an elevator pitch or "Wouldn't it be cool..". Countless people right now are able to get that initial bit of excitement over an idea and instead of a little groundwork o

That seems like reasonable advice until you realize you have no idea what will and will not scale in a few years, and there's only so many tailors/plumbers/welders/etc. What it really comes down to is these options as mo

Basically: More people are having more ideas that they’re able execute to at least a minimal degree. That doesn’t seem bad, but like an editor’s slush pile yeah- things are gonna get lost in the noise.

The title should changed to reflect the actual title, as the user-provided one is incorrect and misstates a central conclusion.

The term violence, when applied in any context, is applied in context . With a scope and meaning determined as much by tacitly accepted scope as it is by lexicon. So, to all of your questions— “no”. You are wrong, on all counts, because yo

Yeah, tokens per second can very much influence the work style and therefore mindset a person should bring to usage. You can also build on the results of a faster but less than SOTA class model in different ways. I can let a coding tuned 7-

Same ? Not quite as good as that. But google’s Gemma 3 27B is highly similar to their last Flash model. The latest Qwen3 variants are very good, to my need at least they are the best open coders, but really— here’s the thing: There’s so ma

There’s plenty of software that does this sort of thing, often industry specific but plenty that aren’t. You don’t see it “as code” in the raw like this article wants mainly because a company doesn’t deal with this information in such a non
