Counterpoint, industry cyber security is so generally weak, if there were actually a secret "huge cold cyber war" on-going, we'd see real world impact. Since we don't, it probably …

Oh wow! Hadn't checked in awhile, thanks for the update.

Yes, I also balked when I originally encountered this pattern at a previous co. And I think agree with your point, "correct in a wrong way"? Yeah, everything as a POST is wrong, bu…

I believe they paused freeways everywhere because they drove through some construction (or didn't handle construction zones well).

The longer I work with and write APIs, the more and more I believe everything should be a POST.

It sounds like you have strong faith that if we can do in 100GB what we can do in 1TB today, 10x-ing our model size[1] from today won't be better? [1]whether it is 10x in size, or …

The switch is not novel, that is in fact exactly how autopilot works for any aircraft. The pilot toggles it on and off and the autopilot itself may turn itself off if certain situa…

I needed to supply all the necessary documents to prove citizenship, yeah. SSN and birth certificate. Sounds like RealID has other options for proving identity for non-citizens?

And also according to the DHS is apparently now insufficient to prove citizenship to vote, i.e. goal posts moved.

> AI models cost tens of millions to train. A pittance frankly. Something that could easily be covered by oh I dunno, let's call it a National Science Foundation who's in charge of…

> Most of the operating profit back then came from alcohol sales and that's a totally different business. I think this is typical of a lot of similar-ish businesses. Restaurants, b…

There are a lot of ideas swirling around right now, it has been the most anybody has cared about OAuth in 15 years. Most auth companies are playing in this space, some are trying t…

Having just joined Twilio (thanks for buying us) and designing some new APIs right now, it warmed my heart to see messages.create(), written over 15 years ago, show up as an exampl…

App Store review is really just luck of the draw in my experience. There is usually no rhyme or reason to a decision, changing some minor thing and re-applying works a lot of the t…

> Property taxes are the only thing that can redistribute wealth from landlords to the working people. Eh? Working people always pay the property tax, landlords do not.

> it becomes very hard to have a common culture Counter point: culture has been compressed, not widened, in the last 60 years. Accents have gone away, we listen to the same music, …

So we're going to start paying teachers more so they qualify, right? Right? Oh, we'll just lower requirements for teachers so they don't need a degree...ok [1] [1] https://www.k12d…

You're surprised? I think harnesses are almost as important as the underlying model. Folks have been able to improve benchmark results by nearly 2x based on harness alone. Harnesse…

The word jurisdiction is where it gets confusing. The meaning of that word does not map 1:1 to its modern usage. To wit, if we read it as "subject to the laws of the land", then th…

Rule of thumb is about 70-80%.

RIP to Glean? For enterprises already with an Anthropic MSA, hard to see the argument to purchase a third party, like Glean, over this.

I expect mobile OS and maybe mobile app developers to do so. Google has already downgraded memory for their upcoming Pixel 11 while at the same time imposing local running models a…

Have only heard bad stories over the years. Was surprised and disheartened to see him return in a leadership position.

I disagree, I think she articulated it very well. At scale you have sound bites, that's it. She captured the truth, that our current system vastly favors capital over labor (etc et…

Linear is both Jira shaped and less terrible.
