Cool technique!

I just want to point out that something being science fiction does not mean it's impossible.

(March 2024) Antropic claimed Claude 3 Opus had "graduate-level expert reasoning" with GPQA results of around 60% showing a roughly phd level performance. (Sept 2024) OpenAI claime…

Yes and no. It would make the test fair but it would also mean losing any optimizations the vendors have made specifically for their model. They're all trained differently so they …

If it was just one test, sure. But if they're spinning these up continuously with new models on tens of thousands of GPUs, air gapping becomes impractical. I would mostly fault the…

Has to be mixed. The model accomplished something truly impressive. We'll see how impressive when the zero-days are available look at. But OpenAI as an engineering company screwed …

When that happens, I usually just do a manual update on my filters. More often than not, someone has already updated it.

Worth pointing out then that DDG has a number of shortcuts built-in. If you don't care about passing a query through them, it already works. https://duckduckgo.com/bang The most-us…

Even programming questions. If it's something considered popular, you get awful results. Take javascript, I always append "mdn" when I'm trying to look up a language/api detail. Ot…

Large governments have access to Windows source code. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/securityengineering/gsp It's more about long-term strategy. China wants full control over thei…

Correct. The US only had net neutrality on the books for traditional ISPs. However, they were playing relatively nicely to avoid such regulation happening. The mobile arena was fou…

Data exemptions are absolutely an example of a net neutrality violation. Similar things, like exempting partnered streaming music services from mobile data plans, have been shot do…

The fix was to block the botnets that were scanning millions of numbers and ban the associated accounts. Likely that includes some ongoing threat detection as well. That'll at leas…

Hiding counts makes it hard to identify imposter accounts and bots. Users need to be able to see account age and counts at a minimum.

No, it wouldn't work. It only works if people can discover you with the "find people you know from your address book" feature. A deleted number won't match. Or you can just turn it…

So people don't generate thousands of accounts then sit on them until they want to spam with legit-looking seven year old accounts.

It's for anti-spam. Preventing people from generating millions of free accounts is valuable.

You can check it all you want. That won't change the physics of its dynamically unstable design.

Exactly. Using Mars as a second example is basically just doubling down on the "Elon isn't trustworthy" argument. That should be a giant red flag to readers.

Have you considered just creating multiple windows/mac accounts? Since you can switch without having to log off, it's really convenient. I understand partners sharing accounts and …

I use Temporary Containers ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/temporary-con... ) to do this. You can customize how you want links handled when they target different d…

Are you sure about that? I don't have Lyft where I live. But, about a year back, I was given a Lyft code for an interview. When I got the code, the instructions made it clear that …

Tools like this should be built into your IDE. No developer ever wants automated feedback at the end of the process in a code review. There are lots of academic ML review/suggestio…

It'll probably generate irrelevant stats on the engineers to send directly to their managers to use against them in their next review.
