Things can be more complicated than that. Crimea is a special situation. I won't reiterate its complex history here since there is plenty of written here, but I'd like to point out that one could have a view where Crimea is Russia

Ok. So your children get their grandfather's names. The names of their grandmothers get dropped. Only a partial improvement over just dropping the mother's name.

If the word you need to redact is also an English verb there is a risk that you accidentally mark the name of person in a context where that redacted word has a clear meaning in that context and can be used as a proof that such a term has

True. But it's not a binary choice. All it takes is to make one sub-optmial choice for the universe to be filled up with von-neuman probes in all star systems

A few times over the past decade I wanted to start with a side project where I design and develop a CPU. I bought a relatively cheap artic 7 board with 33kLUT and whatnot which I know people have used to implement risc-v implementations on.

I recently had a broken traffic light in my city, it was daylight and I didn't notice any other lights that should be on during the day to be off. My approach was to get closer into the intersection slowly and judge whether the perpend

I wonder if generated skills could be useful to codify the outcome of long sessions where the agent has tried a bunch of things and then finally settled on a solution based on a mixture of test failures and user feedback

Of course, parts of the context (as decided by the MCP server, based on the context, no pun intended) are returned to claude which processes them on their servers.

Is there a possible future where the inference usage increases because there will be many many more customers and R&D grows Lower than inference? Or is it already saturated?

There is a large region of the upper atmosphere called the thermosphere where there is still a little bit of air. The pressure is extremely low but the few molecules that are there are bombarded by intense radiation and thus reach pretty hi

yes but those are not quite new skills right? can those markdown in the references also in turn tell the model to lazily load more references only if the model deems they are useful?

Can I organize skills hierarchically? If when many skills are defined, Claude Code loads all definitions into the prompt, potentially diluting its ability to identify relevant skills, I'd like a system where only broad skill group summ

Or it just shows that it tries to overcorrect the prompt which is generally a good idea in the most cases where the prompter is not intentionally asking a weird thing. This happens all the time with humans. Imagine you're at a call cen

Japan defeated the Russian navy in 1905. I guess that means that the Empire of Japan can trivially defeat the Russian Empire if such political entities cared to exist anymore and if the result of a past confrontation was a true benchmark of

yep, as it should, since memory safety with explicit memory management is complicated. If you use a language that allows you to do it in a non-complicated way it's just shifting the complication somewhere else, and if you're not a
