The point is, the law cares about your intent. If you ask an agent to abuse an API to do those things, then yeah, you are probably liable. If you ask an agent to do something reasonable (like make a booking), and then it accomplishes that

Doing those things also contributes to compression. I do recommend reading up on it, it's perhaps a little overstated for what people intuitively consider the two concepts but it's been quite well explored and has held up pretty w

The Chinese room is a good Rorschach test for this kind of thing (but not a good thought experiment, IMO, because it's obviously correct or obviously wrong depending on where you're already coming from), but also it's not rea

But what you are responsible for changes: in that case if you were to accidentally kill someone you would be at most responsible for negligent manslaughter, not murder, and to what degree that could stick would depend a lot on the details o

That others have been treated unfairly doesn't make this instance also one that should be overreacted to.

That depends. There's a few different trading scams in Eve but it does implement a pretty standard trading book, and so the way that works someone listing a price way above what anyone else is offering is never going to have their orde

Cargo-crev already exists if you care to use it.

The rewrite was a lot faster. Actually shaking out the bugs from the rewrite (or just getting enough confidence in the new version from use by early adopters) is probably not going to be drastically faster.

Rust also doesn't prevent memory leaks: you can create memory leaks through reference cycles just fine in rust.

I wouldn't consider it particularly surprising that a big rewrite results in no new releases for a bit before the rewritten version is released.

It is and has been - skipping the tokens causes performance to drop. But replacing the tokens with filler causes the performance to drop, but by a lot less. You can also train models to emit broken or unrelated thinking tokens and their per

Because in a free market you can't compel someone to support your niche platform, nor even compel someone to create the niche platform you want. The market for a Linux phone is tiny because there's almost no reason for the average

Can you smell what's being cooked on the gas stove? If so, the combustion products from the stove are also reaching your nose.

I think that is what they're saying: the point is that if you're doing this, you don't want to optimize for the cleanest air leaving the filter, but more for throughput.

Most air pollution is pretty localized. CFCs and greenhouse gases are the biggest outliers for how global their effects are.

TBH I looked at forgejo as an alternative to Gitlab and the fact that they had cloned Actions is what persuaded me to drop it. IMO Gitlab's CI has been their killer feature for a while.

True, but you could argue whether these were good product decisions especially given they've probably contributed to the cost of running the platform and the instability substantially. (Github did probably want a native CI implementati

The biggest mess with Synapse seems to be the ledgers disagreeing: The banks, Synapse, Synapse's customers, and Synapse's customer's customers don't all agree on whose money is whose, and worse, the totals don't see

If you're going to post this, please elaborate on it at least a little bit. At least to show whether you actually understand the point of the phrase.

Rust has similar zero-sized-types, probably the most 'magical' being PhantomData.

Isn't that usually called "collecting"?

Yeah, the very disjointed way that copyright is applied (I would argue, rights that should also transfer across to digital media but generally have not) is contributing to this situation in the first place.

The thing is, I doubt this is even in the top 10 causes of books going extinct. I feel like people often over-romanticise the medium, especially.

Well, at least they don't expose themselves to civil liability by doing so. The system is generally designed so that judges don't have to answer to the participants in the cases they are presiding over. That doesn't mean they

It's gotta be a bit more than that, otherwise it would fail if you trimmed even one token off the start of the whole session, let alone removing the prompt entirely. (One approach that's been described is creating a bias in certai

Arguably this is already happening: the whole state of the model gets fed through from token to token, and even just shoving a bunch of dashes in between the input tokens and the model's output can improve performance (thinking tokens

by rcxdude 2mo ago
It's not obvious if that would help. Some tests have shown that what exactly the thinking tokens are only makes a small difference to the performance of the model, and that the contents of them are sometimes only tenuously related to t

Copyright (or any other such restriction on free use of information) creates power for owners by the simple fact that it turns information into something that can be owned.
