    its very transparent what they're doing they're almost certainly going to replace all the board memebers with political loyalists. the board members served six year terms specifica…

    the honest answer is it's not really about science at all; its about removing independent oversight. the "benefit" from his perspective is the same playbook trump admin has been ru…

    I dunno, my experience mirrors the parent posters: we use opus for all our coding, but gpt 5.4 for all of our enterprise agentic work via api (much bigger amount of tokens). it jus…

    i agree that their products are quite stale, but a lot of that is cuz they're so deeply entrenched in enterprise workflows in a way that's incredibly hard to displace. switching co…

    but will iran accept the taco? at this point, it seems like it may get ideological for them, and they play a different war (jihad) which would require diverting prolonged resources…

    but the slop will likely better as models improve I guess

    openclaw is just one of many now, there are new ones weekly.

    i agree w/ the the complexity analysis point, but that theoretical understanding actually translates to real world deployment decisions in both subfields. knowing an algorithm is O…

    but isn't this like a lot of other CS-related "gradient descent"? when someone invents a new scheduling algorithm or a new concurrent data structure, it's usually based on hunches …

    I swear the Tay incident caused tech companies to be unnecessarily risk averse with chatbots for years.

    yeah, but isn't the whole point of claude code to get people to provide preference data/telemetry data to anthropic (unless you opt out?). same w/ other providers. i'm guessing mos…

    yup, bezos said "we will be able to beat the cost of terrestrial data centers in space in the next couple of decades". presumably this means they'll need huge ass radiators, so its…

    they should just acquire one of the many agent code harnesses. Something like opencode works just as well as claude-code and has only been around half of the time.

    true on the naming, but i think geometric/clifford algebra has its own mysterious aura precisely because it can be framed as "suppressed" or "overlooked".. plus it genuinely does h…

    Some of NVIDIA's models also tend to have interesting architectures. For example, usage of the MAMBA architecture instead of purely transformers: https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/…

    solid analysis but i think you're missing the logical endpoint here: this doesn't end with companies "relearning scarcity"... it ends with the permanent contractor-ification of var…

    Comment #46787885

    i'd say the crypto angle is only one factor. as is usual in the real world, effects are multifactorial. clawdbot also rode the wave of claude-code being popular (perhaps due to und…

    oh interesting, so it just... didn't use them? lol. i guess the model's training data already has enough web knowledge baked in that it could wing it. curious if explicitly prompti…

    very impressive! it's amazing how far we've come in 20 years. i was a (very minor) contributor to khtml/konqueror (before apple got involved w/ webkit) in the early 2000s, and back…
