Literally, get over it. Even my (extremely conservative) church group doesn't have an issue with it. 1) because most people don't know BDSM terminology and 2) gimp has other connotations so it's not even obvious that was inte

That's probably true. But offending people with prudish attitudes or without a sense of humor is a pretty common old-school hacker goal. It serves a valuable community function by protecting the community from corporate interests, non-

Absolutely! But the question is whether the next step-change in intelligence is just around the corner (in which case, this legal speedbump might spur innovation). Or, will the next revolution take a while. There's enough money in the

I mean, you're right in the abstract. If you train an LLM in a void and never do anything with the model, sure. But that's not what anyone is doing. People train models so that someone can actually use them. So I'm not sure

If spending is so important why are the most expensive districts the worst. Shouldn’t that money have helped them? And yet year after year, they remain the worst despite $20k+ per student.

I think the adminstration's plan to execute on this is basically garden leave. They tell the "retiring" employees to stop working, but keep them on the payroll so they keep getting paid. This administration has been playing a

> We do email only deals, we do LinkedIn message only deals and we have a self-serve funnel. That's awesome. And, I think that's what a lot of people here are talking about: options. If your customers largely wants sales calls

> whose customers will not approve a deal by email only That's kind of begging the question. Part of the point of the thread here is that it seems B2B is leaving some money on the table by refusing to do deals with less interaction.

What does the cost look like for running OpenHands yourself? From your docs, it looks like you recommend Sonnet @ $3 / million tokens. But I could imagine this can add up quickly if you are sending large portions of the repository at a

Maybe that's true for some people. But there's a lot of frustration being shown here and elsewhere that proves there is a demographic of people who really don't want this. Cars are similar I think. Sure maybe some people need

IMO like with most other out-of-the-box LLM frameworks, the value is in looking at their prompts and then doing it yourself. [1] https://github.com/microsoft/graphrag/tree/main/graphrag/pro...

I don't do drugs; I barely even drink alcohol. But, I think drug testing is a violation of privacy and none of a company's business. This isn't 1950, nobody cares if you're doing drugs on your personal time as long as yo
