    Sure, but they clearly haven't "scrubbed all references" of their open weights from their site.

    There's a "Download" button for their open models literally two clicks away from the homepage. Click "Learn more" under the big "Committing to open models" heading on the homepage.…

    I've read through this thread, and for anyone criticising the Monty Hall problem, the article, or Vos Savant herself, I recommend reading the original responses by Vos Savant, avai…

    Little bit off-topic, but I love how probability gets you into phrasing like "the goat isn't distributed over those two doors"

    My guess is that this is still acquiring the email tech, but Notion has no interest in end-to-end encryption. They don't care for the customer base, since those are all with Skiff …

    I think it's really cool that Python has a healthy third-party interpreter community. PyPy, IronPython, Jython, and now RustPython expand Python's accessibility. It's very cool to …

    To be fair, we don't need it to overtake, or even come close to, the entire plastic industry. It'd already be nice if it, and other sustainable materials, could chip away at differ…

    Certainly sounds like you're hyper-selecting to your own biases and ignoring real evidence when it doesn't agree with your personal observations.
