Huh, neo-Nazis in HN comment sections?? Jeez. (I checked their other comments and there are things like "Another Zionist Jew to-the-core in charge of another shady American tech company.")

Asterisk is basically "rationalist magazine" and the author is a well-known rationalist blogger, so it's not a surprise that this is basically the only fair look into this phenomenon - compared to the typical outside view tha

He's considered the father of rationalism and the father of AI doomerism. He wrote this famous article in Time magazine a few years ago: https://time.com/6266923/ai-eliezer-yudkowsky-open-letter-no... His book If

It's a term somewhat popularized by the LessWrong/rationalism community to refer to communication (self-communication/note-taking/state-tracking/reasoning, or model-to-model communication) via abstract latent space

I know very little about economics so I can only parrot what I've heard from others but the consensus from everyone I've personally heard talk about Gary - not just Abundists - is that he's a crank when it comes to economics.

I think it's largely revulsion that Uber ignored regulations, with the revulsion mostly coming from the types of people outraged by things like Newsom's recent CEQA reform. They support these sorts of stifling rules and believe th

I agree with you. At the same time, I never want to see an ad. Anywhere. I simply don't. I won't judge services for serving ads, but I absolutely will do anything I can on the client-side to never be exposed to any. I find ads so

Sure but "almost all tech is bad but almost all non-bad tech is American" in effect means European software is seen as bad. (And as an American who's spent a lot of time in Europe, this has been my experience, personally.) In

I still exclusively use Claude Code. I have not yet experimented with these other models for practical software development work. A workflow I've been hearing about is: use Claude Code until quota exhaustion, then use Gemini CLI with G

There are rumors that the K2 model Groq is serving is quantized or otherwise produces lower-quality responses than expected due to some optimization, FYI. I tested it and the speed is incredible, though.

I just set up Groq with Kimi K2 the other day and was blown away by the speed. Deciding if I should switch to Qwen 3 and Cerebras. (Also, off-topic, but the name reminds me of cerebrates from Starcraft. The Zerg command hierarchy lore was f

That is tricky. I think some propaganda has no effect while some propaganda is so impactful that it is the sole cause of some major, major things. I know you said "generally" but I think that doesn't present the full pictur

Some of the core ideas here seem good, but the node/edge distinction feels too fuzzy. The node "Climate Change Threat" is a claim. Is the node "Efficiency" a claim? Can one challenge the existence of Efficiency? If

It definitely is. But, hey; it worked on me. I'm going to try it, since I've been looking for exactly this.

I have always been a progressive and a social justice advocate, but in my opinion taking race into consideration in hiring or admissions decisions simply isn't fair or ethical, no matter the intention or the end result.

by meowface 1y ago
Yeah, I am not at all defending Trump or his supporters. I just think it's important to distinguish taking issue with universities or employers having explicit racial preference in admissions or hiring (which many liberals take issue w

I am consistent on this one, personally. Let LLMs train on anything and let YouTubers do things like this one. It's all fine to me.

I am a turbolib who hates Andreessen but I think the progressive media outlets have been somewhat misinterpreting his leaked messages there. I didn't read it as racist Trumpist white nationalist rhetoric but as specific commentary abou

That one is definitely a lot worse and a danger of a monopoly/extremely powerful market player. I would argue that a monopoly is not inherently "bad"* but has much more ability to do bad things if it chooses to, with not much

Sure, the law should be enforced against them. The law's the law. I wasn't trying to imply they should not face the full penalties the law requires, here. Obviously they should. No one is above the law. The tone of your post just

I meant the misinterpretation was formed because that particular misinterpretation was an interpretation that fit your narrative. I would recommend reading the article in its entirety.

You very much misunderstood the article (or, more likely, didn't even open it) because it fit your increasingly fringe skeptic narrative.

AI skepticism is like a religion at this point. Weird it's so prominent on a tech site. (The Apple paper has had many serious holes poked in it.)

I learned about it from this thread and will buy a month's worth to keep playing with it. (48 hours ago the documentation said it was only supported for Max.)

Cursor Tab is like 60% of the reason why it's so good. Cursor Agent works great, too. Most importantly, everything is $20/month, instead of possibly $20/day with Cline or Roo.
