It's not great that they found starlink terminals on Russian drones (they've since tried to lock them down more). These should be export controlled and geo-locked as they are arguably much more powerful than any missile.

It's going higher, there is no viable TACO here and they can keep the strait shut indefinitely. Plus the longer it goes, the harder it is to bring back up production or refining capacity.

Great insight and approach. I wonder though if instead of blogging this, he have the top labs bid on it - what that'd fetch?

The company's incentive is they get strong talent without the expensive of recruiters, they have a way to signal they're serious about hiring and aren't going to waste people's time. A rejected candidate may burn the com

I can't even use 3.1 with Gemini CLI, not sure why.

Cyrpto had some interesting takes on these sort of problems that we haven't really applied more broadly. The way I'd design a job board is require the applicant to escrow X and the job poster to escrow Y*X. Y is is the trust rati

Just a recent anecdote, I asked the newest Codex to create a UI element that would persist its value on change. I'm using Datastar and have the manual saved on-disk and linked from the AGENTS.md. It's a simple html element with

SCOTUS is entirely to blame for the chaos here, the courts quickly found the tariffs illegal but they used the shadow docket to stay the ruling causing the illegal behavior to continue for a year.

My experience is that the 'separate but equal' dual engineering track is largely a myth and that if you want advancement, the manager track is a much more viable track. Even with some of the recent flattening, there are still far

They need to keep an emergency backup Claude to fix the production Claude when it goes down. (More seriously I wonder if they'd consider using Openai or Gemini for this purpose)

+1 to Rust - if we're offloading the coding to the clankers, might as well front-load more complexity cost to offload operational cost. Sure, it isn't a particularly ergonomic or simple language but we're not the ones who ha

If this wasn't ambitious enough, the author is also porting glibc to rust. As I understand it, all of it is agentic coded using custom harnesses.

Free chat users will get offloaded to the cheapest model heavily RLed to engagement hack and keep users on the platform. Maybe even paid plans if streaming is any indication.

I switched to Claude but the token efficiency and limits are much more noticeable. One or two coding questions and I'm at my session limit. And that is shared with chat too. I was mostly able to get by with $20 codex but I'll p

The problem with "Any Lawful Use" is that the DoD can essentially make that up. They can have an attorney draft a memo and put it in a drawer. The memo can say pretty much anything is legal - there is no judicial or external rev

I actually prefer an OS-level API for Age verification rather than treating everyone as a child-by-default unless they upload their personal information to some random vendor. BUT this is obviously not the right way to implement this.

Really interesting to see these new compute paradigms. I haven't built anything on Durable Objects yet but I can see the appeal and I'd prefer an OSS option. SqliteDB per tenant may make sense, not sure about per actor. You real

We need key AI researchers at these companies to speak out - execs will not care otherwise. If Jeff Dean made this a red line, it might matter.

I think the lower courts will easily find this is far beyond what the statue allows (and a free speech violation) but this Supreme Court will be eager to get back on Trump's good side and will stay the lower courts injuction. That mean

Google and Amazon both partner with them and sell to the US Government... so does this mean they can't run on Google or AWS infrastructure?

Good to them standing up to this administration. I doubt they actually want to put Claude in the kill-chain but this gives them a nice opportunity to go after 'woke AI' and maybe internal ammunition to go through the switching co

I want some useful memory but it seems hardcoded to try shoehorn in personal details or tidbits from past conversations into responses. Even if I specifically ask it not to in my personalization prompt.

I've churned off OAI in favor of maxing out Claude. Better coding model and less creepy engagement hacking in the chat interface.

Used the "lite" models like Gemini flash - I hope if we do hand over the controls to the nukes we splurge for the top tier thinking model.

In other news, the lack of demand makes them pretty cheap at the moment. You can find a 2023 HW4 Plaid Model S for <$50k.

This was the old Google, new Google lays off teams and moves them to India. New grad hiring is all but paused, hiring just enough to Seniors to backfill attrition and trying to slot them in at n-1 or n-2 levels.

Google has a hugely valuable dataset of changes from decades of changes from top tier software engineers but it's so proprietary they can't use it to train their external models.
