   Security is just one of my concerns. I'm actually more worried about borking my system because it's doing some out of band stuff with various javascript pieces that already exist on my system (not by my choice!).

   Seems like the perfect place to voice our opinions to discourage similar investments in the future.

   I really wish people would mention their stack when they have these curl install scripts. I'd rather use a real package manager, but I'm not totally against installing a compiled binary this way. I am, 100%, not going to install

   Is there any place to see benchmarks for harnesses (not models)? I'd love to see these things compared.

   I've used all of the models extensively and Grok is only "faster" because it claims to be done minutes after you ask it to do something. It does not produce results anywhere near the Anthropic or OpenAI models, it just hacks

    I’m more worried that this will degrade performance. I want the best results from a model, not the results that fit a constraint that’s not defined by me. Any increased cost or latency is also unacceptable.

    I never signed up to support genocide; it doesn't matter how much money I make, I do not. > you have an overt political bias I never said I didn't. I'm an anti-Zionist.

    Sadly the tens of thousands of Palestinian children murdered by Israel will never get the chance to dance.

    I would trade my US "superpower" (aka committing war crimes across the globe) status for free healthcare in the blink of an eye. I currently pay >$1,500 a month for "health insurance", some superpower!

    Calling people "useful idiots" is pithy?

    I'd start with some German guy calling native Canadians who are actively civically engaged "useful idiots" and his suggestion that the unemployed and retried shouldn't have a voice in their community.

    I'm sure the people who would have their right to vote stripped from them would consider that malicious, and they would be correct. That's not democracy.

    I don't think "citizens have a right to vote" is anywhere near the realm of ideological purity or "Brooklyn based journalist" thinking. It's literally just democracy. Freedom of speech seems like something Lutk

    Yep, a lot of toxic investors in this. Not touching it with a ten foot pole and lost a lot of respect for Mitchell. A couple of the other investors: * https://x.com/rauchg/status/1972669025525158031 * https:&#x2F

    How so? First of all there aren't many leftists you can actually vote for. Second, nothing is stopping men or women from voting for leftists, and indeed both do in the rare instances they're on a ballot.

    This is itself a 4chan meme. They also view neo-liberals as "the left", while most leftists definitely do not. Worrying about "woke", "no place for a young man", trans anything... none of these are actual probl

    Outrage is freedom of speech. Stripping votes is fascism. > If you import third world and give them the right to vote what prevents them from voting in the third world? What does import the third world mean? Give them the right to vote
