I guess LLMs are like asymmetric warfare in the difference between training and inference. Also, highly transportable, the models themselves are not overly massive data sets. So like anything that can be used as a weapon, it’s potentially d

Obviously that’s what they would say. The whole point of this discussion is that people tend to say things that advance their agenda, or are politically expedient, not because they are the unvarnished truth.

Isn’t that exactly the point? “Clean up” is clearly a euphemism for some sort of money funnel. Hanford.gov even readily admits this! “In April 2009, the Hanford Site received a nearly $2 billion in funding from the American Recovery and Re

That’s not really how patents work, unless this hypothetical is they are testing exactly the same substance? More likely they are two different treatments that maybe take the same general approach. If the publicly funded one is available at

The answer is to publicly fund the R&D and claim only those drugs to be royalty-free. Private R&D can still fund development and set prices how they want. But they’ll have to compete with publicly funded alternatives. The shame is t

Haha, lookup what “hysteria” was and the medical “treatment” devised to “cure” it. We might have a long way yet to go as a species, but we’ve sure come a long way.

Simple - You keep a notebook, or send yourself emails. If you want more definitive timestamping, there are services that will do that, like OpenTimestamps, an actually a decent use case for blockchain.

Well they said ~40 bytes per update, so 30k * 40 = 1.2MB/sec… so quite trivial. They also said 30GB per month which works out to 0.7MB/sec if load is perfectly constant.

Model Y is the best selling car in the world. And one of the safest too. There’s no accounting for taste, but they clearly didn’t “get it wrong”. There’s virtually nothing about the Model 3 that was copying some historical ICE car that came

I was taught two reasons in undergrad Econ; 1) Deflation is seen as much worse, because inflation encourages spending over saving, which drives growth. Targeting, e.g. 0.5% risks missing and going negative. 2) Inflation reduces the true va

This got me thinking - why we live with rowhammer and how do you take it seriously. This is such a crazy hack to get some protection around key variables - by requiring 32-bit manipulation. Why isn’t this just “done” on the phy layer, or so
