Just put a rate limit to make sure your servers don't get overloaded. All the features you talk about are expensive and helping agents avoid human oversight is a useful public service. Let a thousand secret message-boards bloom.

It's not "models have stagnated" but "models released at the same time are on the same level". Improvements are still real but the relative gaps between OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, Grok, Gemini and open models are clos

People who are anti-semitic and violent call themselves Proud Boys and Restore Britain. It's true that a lot of radical leftists do "critical support" for Hamas, just like they used to with the IRA or ETA. But that's the

The internet is designed to not go offline. It's true that a lot of it is dependent on big infra providers like Cloudflare but them going down permanently would be a problem for a couple days for anyone with good backup plans or week

H-1B is a problem for the immigrants labor rights not the other employees. Unionized workplaces already have strong protection against replacing workers with non union labor, including H-1B and contractors. Unless it's in a right to

I'm a pretty left wing person. Most of my friends are a lot more conservative. We can talk anything including politics and disagree without breaking apart our relationship. Last night out it was abortion and Lindsay Clancy, before that

You don't need to self host to get the benefits of an open model. There are many hosted providers cheaper than OpenAI or Anthropic who can give you a SLA, ZDR, BAA and all the other three letter acronyms your compliance department need

It's not about journals. If they want to be 100 trustworthy they should release end to end reproducible pipelines for the whole process with everything but the private datasets included, and all design decisions fully documented. And l

CIA is not stupid enough to break into a guarded data center in Switzerland or one of the less America friendly EU countries. They tell the NSA to look for security holes and spread narratives that only criminals use VPN hoping that a polit

Looks like they don't use the Roman name anywhere, it's just Ro. If they changed in 2018 it should 100% count as abandoned trademark.

It's the only good word here. "Drop" can also mean the opposite and anything else sounds too formal. Don't get me started on "release will release".

No tax funding, no profit and price controls are normal for a state owned company. In other countries the postal service is not expected to pay for itself all the way but subsidies are limited by law. The prices are supposed to be lower t

Some of the Republican proposals would require a proof of citizenship at registration time. You would still be able to register without a passport but you need to take your birth or naturalization certificate. Not everyone has them at home

Rust has the deadly combo of static linking, dependency unification and a feature flag system. That makes it hard to share cached dependencies between projects, and when your compiler is as complex as rustc the individual files will end up

Replace Modi with Netanyahu and maybe Xi with Kim. These two are dictators but don't really care about things outside of their region (other than Chinese exploitation in Africa). They want to stay in power not take over the whole worl

Emily saw major issues with her own translation and decided to make a new one. Do you think software should stay on one version forever even if the developers know it's full of bugs?

Eating healthy is not the same as eating "clean". Avoiding processed foods is stupid. All you really need to look at is the calories, protein and fiber, then make sure you get enough vitamins and minerals and your sodium is balanc

Nationalize all power utilities and use their capital to build new plants. That costs the government nothing, and power will get cheaper even if the nuclear plans fail because their profit margins would be limited by law. It's also t

The point is that it's still high and stagnating. And the living wage calculation is using a CPI adjusted fixed level, so inflation that's heavy on critical sectors for lower income people (housing, fuel, groceries) will show up l

We need to limit copyright to commercial use. Piracy only hurts corporate profits (CDPR proved it will never bankrupt a studio) but a media company getting an artist to work for them and not paying is seriously unfair. This kind of breaks d
