Oh, I totally agree that it’s a valid reason. I just don’t find the authors gripe very meaningful. I say that as somebody who switched to Proton for political reasons too haha.

There are a lot of bad arguments in this. My biggest problem is that he wants to claim that he knows the truth (AIs do not have rights, feelings, or consciousness), but all of his arguments point to something else (we have no clue). It&#x27

Maybe Proton’s copy needs some work, but another page on their website very clearly explains that emails aren’t encrypted when an email leave the ecosystem. Because, as the author points out, they can’t be. Also, I hate Trump too, but a bro

I’ve wanted something like this for a long time. However, I wanted it with extensive fact-checked information and AI slop is the opposite of that so I feel this is kinda pointless.

Yeah, but that computer can’t also do the AI stuff. And not everybody has a desktop with multiple 32GB GPUs available. I’ll admit though I’m biased because I bought my board for $1600 back before the prices went crazy.

That’s only true if you think AI is the only reason to own a powerful and efficient server. Mine does plenty of traditional server stuff too.

One agent typically blocks the others on a local device because the GPU is already completely utilized either in terms of memory or compute. You can have true parallelism at home, but you need an absurd amount of resources. It's not a

What about do you mean by single threaded? Each token is predicted by using parallel computation on the GPU.

by sosodev 1mo ago
That's not how that works. Selecting a different token is not inherently erroneous. A correct solution can still be found despite divergence.

Ruby can't render React code. JavaScript can. With GitHub it seems that they sometimes can do SSR for the React bits, but that must mean that they're invoking a JavaScript interpreter within the Ruby process. Which means they have

SSR that is javascript native, sure. This is still Ruby doing the rendering.

by sosodev 1mo ago
They didn't leave the architecture alone, right? They shoved React in and created a weird SSR + React frankenstein that is objectively worse in many ways.

Ah, yeah that's a fair point. I was thinking it'd be something the labs themselves, or other companies with billions of dollars in funding, would tackle. The labs seemingly have the most to gain since such a system could be used f

I don’t find that to be particularly systematic because it’s still so haphazard. It’s like asking Claude to vibe code you a website.

I had an old coworker who told me he got into software development in the sixties by walking into an IBM office and asking for a job. He had no education beyond high school and no experience with computers. They just had him take an aptitud

Very true. Humans have historically tried to systematically reduce the search space and only dedicate their "compute" to things that seem highly likely to yield results.

by sosodev 2mo ago
I wonder why we have yet to see more systematic exploration of Math. Anthropic describes that Claude identified a set of possibilities and then explored them using sub-agents. The human saying "I believe in you" could literally ju

I saw some coverage of your robot on social media. I honestly thought it was a hoax because of the very bold design and AI generated images. Cool concept, have you had any potential customers reach out?

I wonder how many people are using external resources when playing this. I have a hard time believing that the average lumps so far to the right of the score distribution unless this game is played exclusively by anthropologists haha.

Are guard rails meaningful if they can be removed from the weights? Can America even prevent the release and proliferation of these models? It seems obvious to me that the whole question of regulating a file is a bit silly. Any law that pus

I think the argument is that decentralization leads to deceleration because it means less centralized funding and data. Those are the two primary ingredients for accel. The problem with the decel/accel rhetoric is that it lacks nuance.

If you only care about facts, maybe. Even then I'm sure there are countless facts not described outside of old books. I have a hard time believing that text valuable to humans would not be valuable to AI.

GSX seems interesting but I don’t understand why it depends on the node ecosystem. I just want to use Go for everything.

What would "actual" evidence look like? I have a hard time believing that if they released the logs that people would take it more seriously. The temptation would be to say "they fabricated those for marketing". Just as
