I’ve never been in the Navy or on a submarine, but my impression is that SUBSAFE is about never ever having a reactor accident, at least partially for PR reasons. It wouldn’t surprise me if there simply are not procedures to deliberately pu

I’m not an expert on this, but haven’t GLP-1’s been used for quite a while on more limited scopes? So maybe there’s a cohort of people that could approach statistical significance.

Golf is largely self-regulating though; there is not a huge quantity of VC money going into golf courses. As more people find golf boring, there are fewer golf courses because the economics of running a failing golf course vs. selling to de

But no _individual_ speaks like this. It is not common that a guy representative of the Average Of All People Plus Some RL writes a blog post.

In most jurisdictions, what you can take out of a deposit is legislated. And it's really not that hard to make an unnoticeable drywall repair.

Why can't you hang a picture on the wall? Fixing holes in drywall is super trivial, a good life skill to learn.

I’ve thought this for a while, but why hasn’t it happened yet? At this point, OpenAI and Anthropic and friends could definitely remove the AI “smell” from writing output, or give users a first class way to specify a writing style. So why ha

I remember in the west a few years ago we were seeing purported pictures of electronic billboards in China shaming low-social-credit-havers. Was that all a weird psyop?

I can, because I charge it every night. Also, I have never once engaged in a long road trip that I did not know about at least a few hours in advance. I think you should not get an EV. But I like mine.

> the people that jumped in now need to defend their $60,000 purchases. First, you're not assuming good faith. Second, I got a used Model 3 for $16k. I also have an F150. I _choose_ to drive the 3 on road trips. I am not suffering f

And you mostly aren’t charging to 80%, usually it’s closer to 40-60%.

It’s not possible for the standard wage to be substandard.

by rogerrogerr 2mo ago
Yeah, when I take a road trip I genuinely enjoy the cadence of charging. 5-10 minutes every two hours, just enough to go to the bathroom or walk around. I get to my destination not materially later, and feeling far more relaxed than when I

Shame on you for suggesting someone desecrate a cave by using it for shelter. The only acceptable options are $500k houses or refrigerator boxes in the park.

I’m out of the loop on this, not trying to ignite a holy war, but what’s the gist of the anti-systemd stance?

> Conventional autpilot is like a zip tie on the throttle, only it deals in outputs (your actual heading) rather than inputs (pedals and stick) What does this mean? I’m a pilot and none of it is making any sense.

It’s not about who’s developing the models, it’s the fact that free alternatives that are neck-and-neck are available at all. What’s the story for OpenAI & Anthropic’s valuation if they have to compete against free-weight models? Starts

The apparent bias may be explainable as it’s not remarkable for OpenAI or Anthropic to be slightly ahead. It _is_ remarkable for an open weights model to be better than the closed models from the trillion dollar (allegedly) companies.

You can't interrogate the context of an LLM when you only have its output.

A lot of that sense was probably based on side channels like proper grammar, writing style, etc. That’s all gone now :(

I am implying that because it is true. SpaceX owns the $80B. Elon owns stock in SpaceX. The IPO was a primary offering in which SpaceX issued new shares and received the proceeds. If Elon had personally sold shares, the prospectus would hav
