To be fair, it would cost them more to fully test the iOS 18 patches on all devices, than what it cost them to test a few devices. So I wouldn't quite call it artificially holding the patches back. But yeah, it is probably mostly motiv

Consider that the current vice president has agreed with Curtis Yarvin saying things like we need to get over our dictator phobia and replace the government. I don't think that can be hand-waved as business as usual. The next phase in

I know the aggravation of getting a hairball of code to review, but I often hold my nose. At least find a better reason to send it back, like a specific bug. If you're sure cyclomatic complexity should be minimized, I think you should

This prompted me to read the Qanon Wikipedia page, and it is pretty funny that it also involves a right-wing South African software engineer warning us of the threat of global Satanists.

I'm not a principal, but I would wonder: if AI increases every "coder's" productivity, say, 5x doesn't that replace some teams with 1 person, meaning less "alignment" necessary? Some whole org layers may d

I used “decorative emojis” (some colored circles) to essentially color-code the labels in an app I don’t control that only let me provide text labels. It’s a little subjective, but I do believe it enhanced communication, from the data to th

That’s pretty funny when compared with the rhetoric like “AI doesn’t get tired like humans.” No, it doesn’t, but it roleplays like it does. I guess there is too much reference to human concerns like fatigue and saving effort in the training

Is there some reason your lack of apostrophe and period is supposed to be less annoying than their lack of capitalization?

“the total lives at risk from aid cuts to 1.6 million lives lost per year” It’s a projection, a risk, and a rate, not a claim it has already happened to specific people.

If he was referring to the 2024 SCOTUS ruling, I guess I expected him to spell it out well enough for an armchair lawyer like myself, but you are probably right. Though I wonder if the "encroach" wording could be about the Suprema

Are you saying a Biden-packed SC would have directly resulted in Trump being jailed? How? And my understanding was he was sentenced for the felonies, to unconditional discharge, because he was days away from beginning his second term. So

But, almost by definition of how LLMs work, if it’s that easy then someone else did it before and the AI is just copying their work for you. This doesn’t fit well with my idea of glorious hacks to bend the machine, personally. I don’t know,
