I havent even RTFA to be fair but I like how often Bayesian heuristics like this turn out to be... Useful... If even not provably "true".

Oh that's very interesting. Unfortunately for all of us many countries are revisiting nuclear ambitions it seems, but I can see how that makes sense from the Japanese perspective, given an environment with more aggression in general an

This might be what you're saying, and it's been a long time since I read Rogers' original work, but IIRC Rogers was following the standard deviations of the normal distribution but wasn't without merit in finding common

Good on Switzerland. It's easy to bash governments but, given that LLMs process basically all of human recorded knowledge and run on top of the collective efforts of 60 years of Moore's Law, we should look at them as a collective

Agreed. And don't get me started on the whole Thucydides Trap, whose primary trap is that assuming war is inevitable based on conflicts from centuries ago will, in fact, become a stupidly self-fulfilling prophecy.

I think it would be interested if only those who had completed military service could vote to go to war since I think you'd def see less of them. That said, I don't see this actually happening.

I agree whole heartedly with your main point but I'd say militaries are more likely to overreact to the last war. "Generals are always fighting the last war" is a quote I heard from long ago and it seems to match up. In Des

I'm not so sure that loading "more than a few thousand rows" is as bad as it used to be. I did some quick benchmarks a couple years back. It's been a while but I want to say that Chrome was drawing 10k rows of a decent s

It's funny you mention 500kb/s. I have a painfully slow connection at home currently (long story). It's exactly in the 500kb/s to 800kb/s range and "dial up speed" is exactly how I describe it.

Completely OT and apologies if rude, but you're Gary Numan the musician? I love finding out when celebrities have talents elsewhere. And Wikipedia says you've had quite a bit of aviation experience as well. Kinda makes my morning.

I'd use the analogy of current dynamic language VMs being written C. You're not modifying structs at runtime or creating C functions as a user of the dynamic language. But the creators of the VM are providing as thin a layer as po

It should be added that the company where the blog is hosted makes MCP tools. So a post from a company making MCP tools that MCP is the new Messiah isn't exactly earth shaking.
