Here’s a video of what this guy was involved in (to my best knowledge): https://statements.cornell.edu/2024/20241019-career-fair-dis... I’m a First Amendment absolutist and AFAIK foreign students can protest, but this

Guy seems to have earned himself a ban from entering Cornell’s premises[1]. They seem to be letting him finish [2], which tracks—they’re pretty chill IME. Something might’ve went down… [1]: https://www.theguardian.com/commen

Anyone with a shell company listed on NASDAQ I guess. That part’s probably pretty important.

I mean Costco’s a membership club. This is NYC. Of course somebody’s gonna show up with a truck and arb any profitable grocery item if there isn’t rationing.

That’s not universal. Mine hammered on “it’s better to be interestingly wrong than boringly correct.” Equivocating waffles were returned ungraded.

AFAIK everything I use has timeouts, retries, and some way of throwing up its hands and turning things back to me. I use several providers interchangeably. I stay away from overly complex distributed systems and use the simplest thing possi

Kinda crazy but hopefully the future holds a Clippy-esque thing for people who don’t know to set up CI, checkpoints, reviews, environments, etc. that just takes care of all that. It sorta should do this anyway given that the user intent pro

I feel like this will change as people move around. It’s definitely a skill.

Might’ve gotten mixed up with CMOS dominance, or I’m ignorant.

Makes sense. You’re saying why would regulations matter when clearly they can just be ignored. For venture ultimately it’s a soulless moneyman’s game. Really they have to pick winners, and anybody can look at the landscape and see there’s j

I don’t know either, but playbook item #20 has: > The mechanism consists of a revenue-based levy applied to all commercial providers placing AI models on the market or putting them into service in Europe, reflecting their use of content

Why not just force them to to build the common infrastructure and services, and in exchange they get to keep the money? e.g. Jeff Bezos has to build some subway stations in NYC or something. That way you get somebody with a proven track rec

I prompt it and check CI later. I couldn’t tell you how Codex feels. I’ve never had any conversation. You may want to try this sort of workflow if you’re affected personally in a negative way.

Litigation—the hope or fantasy to make a buck—soaks up a lot of the million-man animus I’d guess. If that’s accurate, Luigi Mangione would be the exception that proves the rule. The “unwashed masses” generally want money more than they want

That kind of tracks as the source of the concern. My first thought was it’d be something IDMS-related as well. I don’t know enough about that system to pinpoint exactly what.

It is admittedly pretty goofy to get exactly what you want—an army of people making rules for everything under the sun—and come on here and complain about what we’re doing. Even TFA, which is about yet another rule, has a goofy quote from t

That may be the case, but the EFF’s Twitter alone is enough to explain their poor performance. Their last post did quite well, and it is characteristically different from their other posts. I don’t think Elon Musk personally needs to put hi

Maybe, I haven’t been keeping up since the cracker machine stuff. I thought EFF was a GNU-adjacent thing any generic tech person supported. I guess I was wrong.

I mean can’t you have a grammar on both ends and just set out-of-language tokens to zero. I thought one of the APIs had a way to staple a JSON schema to the output, for ex. We’re making pretty strong statements here. It’s not like it’s impo

Quit being obnoxious and have something of substance to say. It’s disrespectful to the author, senior defense reporter Ellen Mitchell, who is simply pulling from Selective Service’s materials.

Unfortunate. I’m so sick of hearing what things are not, or what’s real, or what’s interesting.

Is this an LLM comment. Why is the A*B framing so useful? It’s just two factors… Why would ppl underestimate B? There’s money at stake.

Wait til you find out what customers do to figure out the lowest. There’s a little more accountability.
