Unreal. Land of Freedom bans Social Media app that runs on US servers, on its own terms, with censorship teams staffed by dozens of ex-US State officials[1]. Amazing that Congress will see bipartisan action on this issue before any of the o

Google the perspective of the people-- polls. It's not "hugely beneficial" as you claim. NATO bombed the shit out Yugoslavia shortly after, one part of the world that remained communist. Virtually every remaining communist co

From any realistic humanitarian perspective, the fall of the Soviet Union was a horrific crisis that resulted in untold amounts of human suffering and poverty. Russia spiraled into a terrible mess, celebrated by the West. Perhaps worth noti

Isn't it true that ANSI sequences can vary depending on the terminal emulator? Does this program account for that somehow? In my shell scripts I often use `tput bold` etc instead of hardcoding the sequences.

I updated the title to say GPT-4, but I believe the quality is still surprisingly close to 4o. On HumanEval, I see 90.2 for GPT-4o and 89.0 for DeepSeek v2.5. - https://blog.getbind.co/2024/09/19/deepseek-2-5-

If it is (apparently) easy for humans to tell when content is AI-generated slop, then it should be possible to develop an AI to distinguish human-created content. As mentioned, we have heuristics like frequency of the word "delve"
