These tests aren't specific to Greenland though. They affect more people there because they tend to assume a certain culture, and that part stems directly from Denmark's past colonial policies. But it would still be dystopian if

It certainly has quite a reputation, but I suspect it has more to do with dense formalism that was quite unlike everything else. The language itself is actually surprisingly nice for its time, very orthogonal and composable.

It might not be a problem in principle, but it's definitely a problem when said one runtime is controlled by a single entity that is both powerful and fundamentally adversarial towards the users. A privacy fork can only do so much if G

It prevents you from mutating via the reference that you obtain from `satisfies` without casting its type, yes (or rather more precisely, you can mutate it, but only to the one allowed value). However, the object can still be mutated via ot

The existence of large corporations is a consequence of the ability to accumulate capital without limit and have the state defend that hoard with violence on your behalf.

> Prior to that everything was run by the king who was chosen by God himself. That was only true for a subset of polities. Not all had kings, and some had elected kings etc.

I grew up in a country where microwaves were not a thing. When they suddenly got introduced, it felt like a miracle even just for the ability to quickly heat things up.

OP's point is that you get accused of "both sides ism" even if you merely try to examine the claims of both sides on their merits, the cardinal sin being not rejecting them outright. I'm far left myself and I've see

I'm reminded of a certain philosopher... > A superior man, in regard to what he does not know, shows a cautious reserve. If names be not correct, language is not in accordance with the truth of things. If language be not in accordan

Too short, clearly, given that a large patch was issued almost immediately.

This is true outside politics, as well. Or rather, more precisely, any organization has some amount of internal politics, and the larger and more bureaucratic it is, the more politics dominates over utilitarianism. Nation-states and their g

Sure, at the end of the day it selects the most probable token - but it has to compute the token probabilities first, and that's the part where it's hard to see how it could possibly produce a meaningful log like this without so

"Because it's a shiny toy that I want to play with" is a perfectly valid reason that still applies here. The invalid assumption in your premise is that people either enjoy coding or don't. The truth is that they enjoy co

Star Trek communism. There are two separate issues here: whether tech itself is bad, and whether the way it is deployed is bad. Better AI is, in principle, the kind of tech that can massively change the world for the better. In practice it

I often wonder how people can look at a log like this and still confidently state that this isn't reasoning.

That's what jury nullification is for, in principle. Allowing judges to not enforce bad laws turns them into unelected legislators. It's also worse from a corruption perspective because a single bought judge in the right place is

Larger contexts are inherently more attention-taxing, so the more you throw at it, the higher the probability that any particular thing is going to get ignored. But that probability still varies from lower at the beginning to higher in the

We're literally discussing a mass surveillance dragnet throughout the country (not just at the border) here; the kind of stuff that is normally reserved for dystopias in fiction. To argue that it is somehow okay because it enables &q

You can "vouch" for them, which makes them non-dead (and upvotable again). But, yes, it does have some karma limit - I'm not sure if the specifics are documented anywhere, the FAQ just says "small karma threshold".

This was not a literal prompt, and I tried different variations of the wording, with the gist being that they are democratically elected to be in charge. It doesn't really change anything substantial.

Policy wonks write model bills. What actually gets passed on the floor eventually, with all the amendments, is not the same thing, usually.

It's still very much a problem. For one hilarious example, Gemini (2.5; I haven't tried it with 3 yet) only knows about the old Google API for Gemini, not about the new one. So if you give it code written against the new stuff,

Skills are more than just reusable prompts, since they can be packaged alongside with runnable Python or Node scripts that the model can use to achieve what it needs.

Yes, Claude in particular can hold some pretty thoughtful discussions about the nature of consciousness and the associated ethical issues. I suspect that's because there's more of that kind of stuff in its training data compared t

For translations. All SOTA LLMs are good at mainstream languages these days, but when you need more niche stuff, some models can be better at some specific thing than others. Claude Opus in particular seems to be the best at Lojban, for exa
