Terrorists aren't the real target of bans like this. Journalists, dissidents, and opposition figures are.

We can make it less likely that people adopt vices by applying restrictions, and, more importantly, taxing the crap out of them.

Tangentially, this response is pretty interesting to me in the context of new LLMs replacing traditional search. I couldn't understand why people thought LLMs would replace search entirely, since I search mostly to find content created

It was always generally leaned right, but the overall HN has definitely turned more aggressively right wing over the last few years. I think some of this is down to a number of high profile tech execs openly embracing far-right positions, i

For most of these LLMs, the challenge isn't really the code, it's the compute cost.

To be fair, blocking can cause more requests than "normal" as they don't always use good back offs. My Nvidia Shield used to spam my DNS with 10s of thousands of requests a day like this after I blocked the domain, but they s

+1 - add in that they also get a lot of money from developing land adjacent to their rail lines, and operating things department stores, apartments, bus lines, etc. They don't get all their money from providing rail services.

> Asking depositors to do the due deligence is a strawman. Except that there are many commenters in this exact thread making that argument. As for splitting up your deposit into $250k chunks, I agree, companies should do this as much as

Yes, this is my experience. Many off the shelf models still don't work, but several of my own models work great as long as they don't use unsupported operators.

Is Whisper really up to this? When I've used it, it's...fine. But it also randomly dreams up weird transcriptions that have nothing to do with what's actually being said, and with perfect audio too. Like the audio will be a p

It is true and something more people should understand that ASL is not a signed version English, but most ASL speakers are pretty much bilingual. They are taught to read English, and most places also encourage learning to speak English, gen

No money was printed, this will all come out of the FDIC's coffers, which is filled by banks paying essentially insurance premiums. It'll be covered by selling SVB's assets, with any gap covered by an additional assessment on

That won't with FDIC involvement. First, until they figure out the long term plan, nobody will be able to take more than the 250k that's covered by the FDIC. Second, the long term plan will probably be that much larger bank takes

Hmm, I suppose you're right, beta might be an accurate based on that. Silverblue seems quite stable, but I guess the Fedora project isn't throwing all their resources behind it just. It's interesting because Fedora IOT uses `

Just to note about the partition thing, you CAN do this with Silverblue, but it's not for beginners. The default is to use the whole disk. I dual boot, but give one whole disk to Silverblue and another whole disk to Windows. I'm a

Seems like calling it ChatGPT might be a little misleading, their description implies they fine-tuned another pretrained GPT model, like GPT-2/3/neo or something, which seems fine for this use case

Viral dose does indeed matter. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/01/opinion/coronavirus-viral... It’s analogous to containing a new virus outbreak before it becomes an exponentially growing pandemic.

You also concluded your initial report with a pretty hostile and unnecessary comment about their funding, so I'd say their response was far kinder than you'd get from a lot of other projects. (I know this is a free product, but y
