You're pretty lucky. Most people I know who've gotten to this point have had to think about it a lot.

They were never offering actual US models. We tested them extensively and it was clear whatever they were passing as Anthropic were simply mediocre distillations based on Kimi.

I think we have different definitions of “proficient”. :)

Being proficient in a language is really less about memorizing words than it is pronunciation and grammar. Memorization itself is pretty easy.

They may have good margins, but a few things are still true: 1. Much of those profits have to be immediately reinvested into model training runs to avoid being lapped by competitions. 2. Unit costs are irrelevant when the labs don't pr

I just tested the provider that the OP mentioned extensively yesterday, and the models they're selling are definitely not from Anthropic. The voice "sounds" like Sonnet or Opus at first glance, but the intelligence is definit

I just looked this up. Instagram currently owns the most relevant live trademark for "INKWELL" [1] (class 009). Apple's registration [2] is indeed dead / cancelled. You could possibly try to register the "INKWELL&qu

That doesn't make any sense. The entire reason it was undone is because the recipient told GoDaddy support that they transferred the wrong domain to her. So how could this have been an inside job?

Good design is distinctive. No one wants a world where everything looks the same.

Most real-world scenarios aren't so arbitrary, and hardly any have a "right answer". If I had a candidate that broke out of the box of our interview to give a good answer, and that's not the answer I "want", I&

What a crazy coincidence seeing this on HN; I just started reading this today!

This is a temporary situation. Think of it like how Napster let you download any song for free for a few years. For a while, all you heard was how the Internet was going to put all musicians out of business. Obviously that didn't happe

I agree with this. Not everything that a library considers an error is an application error. If you log an error, something is absolutely wrong and requires attention. If you consider such a log as "possibly wrong", it should be a

Yikes, Mixpanel lost a OpenAI as a customer because of this. > Trust, security, and privacy are foundational to our products, our organization, and our mission. We are committed to transparency, and are notifying all impacted customers

You can't even turn off caching from Cloudflare because...the Cloudflare dashboard is down. So everyone who's wrapped their host with Cloudflare is stuck with it.

I don't know about anyone else, but simply looking at this building makes me nervous. I can't imagine how it could remain structurally sound in high wind conditions. Those open-air floors just don't seem like they'd be e

Do you recall what “people familiar with finance” did with CDOs and mortgage-backed securities during the financial crisis? That didn’t work out so well either, despite all parties being aware of the risks. It bears repeating my original qu

Well, yeah, that's exactly my point. OpenAI is not issuing bonds because these transactions are way riskier than people are willing to admit.

AMD's valuation increased by over 30% this morning, so to say no one has access to more money because of this news is untrue. I'm not outraged at all, I just think this sort of bizarre financial engineering is not a good sign. If

> As part of the arrangement, AMD issued a warrant that gives OpenAI the ability to buy up to 160 million shares of AMD for 1 cent each over the course of the chips deal. The warrant vests in tranches based on milestones that the two co

The big difference is that the dot-com bubble coincided with low interest rates, whereas interest rates increased sharply after COVID ended, which was right when AI was taking off. If we were still in ZIRP things would be insane.

I like this take. Unfortunately most people don't have this level of self-control.
