Yes, using something like zod at boundaries is the right approach. (Personally, I'm not convinced zod itself is the way to go -- I'm suspicious of its lack of stability. The last thing I want to do is redevelop the boundaries of m

I mean, that was one pardon 25 years ago and widely criticized across the political spectrum. It's hard to count how many purely political and money-based pardons Trump has done this term, and there is essentially no pushback on his si

I'll bet he's kicking himself now... he made the wrong bet associating himself with Democrats, who let justice take its course despite the donations, when these days Trump will just take a payoff and issue a pardon.

It sends a clear message: Pay off Trump and you can ignore financial rules with impunity.

It's not much of an argument... he wasn't being held responsible for the actions of a few binance users, we was being held responsible for his own failure to implement compliance processes required by law. The laws exist to restri

SBF/FTX was also a massive donor (using customer money) to Republicans. They routed that money through Ryan Salame, I guess to avoid appearing to be as unprincipled as they actually were. The common theme to the donations ("payoff

I don’t think it makes any sense to ignore the immediate consequences of using/abusing a tool when trying to determine the nature of any regulations or other curbs around that tool.

We might want to treat two things differently when for one of them, its only function is unimaginably massive destruction and for the other it’s to produce words and images.

I guess they are going for a safe default... the idea is people who don't carefully read the docs or carefully monitor the provenance of their dynamically generated HTML will probably reach for "setHTML()". Meanwhile, there&#

People should understand from the outset that open source contributions from for-profit companies must benefit that company. For VC-backed companies -- or anything else where it's spend now, profit later -- the bait-and-switch is pra

I'd be wary of overgeneralizing on that. I guess it depends on whose queries you're usually reading.

It doesn't seem like there's much difference in the trust model between E2EE web apps and App Store apps. Either way the publisher controls the code and you essentially decide whether to trust the publisher or not. Perhaps there&#

It would be helpful if they included a problem statement of some sort. I don't know what problem this solves. While I could possibly read all this and deduce what it's for, I probably won't... (the stated premise of this, &qu

I don’t think the value is for some things to stand out and other things to fade back. It’s for color to label the type (or other high-level semantic characteristic) of different tokens. > What’s the base text color here Why should there

So silly. Of course humans are (by far) the source of the biggest problems humans face. The argument here is that since humans are the scariest, we should ignore problems AI might cause. Pure nonsense, since (1) AI is human-created — so jus

"9.9 Critical" It's not like these scores ever had a solid meaning, but throwing a 9.9 out there for this is nonsense. It's just abusing an already weak system, making it that much weaker.

No doubt the "wider" versions of the M5 are coming. My hope is that they are taking longer because of a memory system upgrade that will make running significantly more powerful LLMs locally more feasible.

I have a 12 mini and it works well. IMO, this is 99% typical "not what I'm used to" internet rage. Upgrade and enjoy.

The quote says the effort is to move "completely". I think there will probably be a long tail which will prevent that from happening so quickly. (It also probably doesn't really matter... if their main goal is to scale using

I've been playing around in this area recently (in a much more limited way). This perspective and these notes are absolutely golden.

In my little test (using my own meager talents to create the source character), it is impressive what it's able to do. But the end result is unusable.

To me the argument is that memory errors are just one type of logic error that can lead to serious bugs. You want a language that reduces logic errors generally, not just memory safety ones, and zig's focus on simplicity and being expl

You just need to put something executable, in whatever sense, in the arena... values that represent functions to call or dynamic libraries to load, or privileges to do those things, etc.
