This looks unambiguous to me: > Forgejo does not accept works of authorship (code, documentation, etc.) either partially or completely generated by AI due to legal uncertainties.

In case anyone from X is reading this, please fix your “open in app” nag screen. For several weeks now, clicking it in iOS opens the App Store entry for X rather than the app, even when you have the app installed.

It’s perfectly legal to put a cellular modem in a TV, but not without disclosing that to the FCC and on product labels . This and the mesh network thing for TVs are (currently) a conspiracy theory, which sucks because it muddies the waters

The source video is excellent: https://youtu.be/6IFVTcM28KA I have two LG TVs so this freaks me out a lot. I guess I’m fortunate to have kept their network permanently disconnected (we use Apple TV for smart stuff) but who

God damn this writing is just a string of pure claudeisms. I can’t see the actual content because I’m cringing so hard. Why not just post the info you want to convey and the prompt? It would be easier for everyone involved.

They haven’t been. I’m aware of new golf courses being planned in my area and I hear nothing but enthusiasm. Literally no one brings up water consumption as a concern. This whole thing is a sublimation of vaguer anxieties about AI (which ar

golf courses use much more. But you don’t see massive resistance against new golf courses being planned. Farms use an order of magnitude more than either. You don’t see any demands whatsoever on agriculture to reduce water usage.

The real reason that Anthropic was targeted and OpenAI is not is Palantir. It was a Palantir executive who pushed for the export ban. Large parts of their highly lucrative business with DoD are essentially a thin wrapper over Anthropic mode

Tough. The code isn’t worth enough to publish. It means nothing to me and I’d have to figure out how to do it pseudonymously. I only have the one GitHub account.

You don’t need to spend $5000 to obtain the hash rate of a $5000 device on a rental basis. You may have heard of this thing called “the cloud”. Obtaining very high hash rates is effectively free, largely as a side effect of the crypto bust.
