I played textual chess with Fable. It took around 15 moves before it made a large blunder. I asked it to give its reasoning per move and it mistakenly assumed a piece was protected when it wasn’t and after the blunder it realized its fault

I guess I work in tech. Maybe it’s different elsewhere but even there I think it’s probably lower than most of the world among similar classes of society.

Yes exactly, the American bias level right now is probably as low as it can get humanly.

India is 31, Netherlands is more dense than India. Would not have expected that, but then I remember that India has a massive desert, and the Himalayas. So I guess it makes more sense now.

I’d disagree. I’m not American or British but and in my experience Americans or British are the least ethnically biased people on the planet. Any other group, I could believe that they are biased but not Americans, or British. Something in

I’m a native English speaker, my quote was trying to question whether it is really one the classics of American literature or not. Might not be appropriate use though. “The classics of American literature” might have been more appropriate.

I remember reading this as a naive 14 yr old, because it was one of “the” classics of American literature apparently. It scarred me for months later. I hated it. Now looking back, I don’t think this story would scar me as much anymore. But

Has bun really shipped using a million line vibecoded PR. I know they merged it, but merging something in a new dir doesn’t mean anything compared to what code is actually running for customers. It’s crazy if the vibecoded rust version is w

Frankly I think any QoL measure between a western and a Japanese life are meaningless. If you’ve ever worked for a Japanese corp under a Japanese boss, you would basically experience that your life is hell. As a westerner we are even subjec

I might be gatekeeping, but I consider a mark of actual healthy capitalism, to be creative destruction, the biggest companies of 1 generation are destroyed by the next generation and the churn keeps going on. Nothing ever lasts except the s

It’s all written by AI and you can’t tell for sure if the tests are good. You can eyeball some but eyeballing 50k lines of code takes a lot of time. You just trust AI and YOLO, find errors later

Aside and maybe controversial: If I didn’t know that the author used AI, then I would have liked this way more. But that is because I would assume the author did this on his own and that would feel like a cool quirky thing to do. I just don

“Masters only programs” is a bad hack that needs to be gone. It is just a cash grab from overseas students desperate for a Visa to work in the US. Many of these programs are highly exploitative and leave overseas students with crippling deb

What is the demographic looking to immigrate to Japan. I’m surprised to hear Chinese as my outsider view was that China was as good if not better place to live compared to China, is it because they’re afraid of their government and want a l

Yes, anthropic wanted that power through a legal agreement. Not by spying on the pentagon , or training their AI model to lie to them etc, which seems more appropriate for supply chain risk. The government in this case can just cancel its l

Even so, VRT has gone up 2000% since it SPACC’ed. RKLB was also a SPAC. A SPAC is a just a way to satisfy regulations as a pre-revenue early stage company. Most early stage companies fail, and that’s fine. If such a company succeeds and sti

That’s much harder. If it’s a big private company like OpenAI, you need a minimum 50k investment. For smaller companies, the number is much higher I assume.

I think it’s still fine. I’ve invested a lot into some SPAC’s. I’m good on 1, break even on the other. And I’ll keep holding it, since these companies are still pre-revenue and I hope they 100X. The overall idea of SPAC’s is not bad, even i

This is ridiculous. We don’t send surgeons to jail if they mistakenly kill their patient.
