The candidate may have had more success if he saved the honesty for after he solved the riddle he claimed he already knew how to solve.

I expect we can squeeze a lot more exponential out of LLMs because they’ve basically shown that human “consciousness,” insofar as it’s composed of knowledge and rules for synthesiz…

There have been a lot. I remember one that was essentially “send the request without an Authorization header.”

Is China opposition unique to the current administration? Didn’t they soften the CHIPS act put in place by the previous one?

Is he actually concerned about China being a geopolitical competitor or is that just the most logical position for him to take as CEO of a US corporation with national security imp…

True, though they could always buy one. I’m surprised this hasn’t happened yet, maybe due to anticompetitive risk? Google bought Motorola long ago which seemed to work well for the…

Inevitably the CSPs will make their own hardware, especially as we start to see specialized chips for specific models or generic inference. This is already happening with Google an…

Personally I find the persistence of these models to be adorable and endearing. It’s the same feeling as watching a dog execute the task you trained it to do, no matter the barrier…

> YouTube search is genuinely better than Google The funny part of this is that Google search is intentionally bad at returning YouTube videos, presumably because some anti-trust a…

Training cost is actually not that high — it’s fixed and amortizable across the lifetime of the model. Inference is expensive, and open weights don’t solve that problem — in fact, …

> Plan L, for local > Your AI is aligned with you. It never refuses a request, and it is always working on your behalf. Just like my gun, if I want my AI to help me kill my stepmot…

It hits the exact same endorphin system as “one more turn” style games like Civ. You can manage a few cities and keep them healthy, but the rest of your empire eventually regresses…

This is similar to how our college CS problem sets were graded. We were given a spec, and we had to implement a program that conformed to it. We had access to 70% of the test suite…

I’ve always liked this tool, but I’m of two minds regarding the privacy gained by sending my searches to 280 companies instead of just one.

Do they send them via notification infrastructure or email? Personally I almost never check the email associated with my Apple ID so I would miss those. But if all my Apple devices…

I think OP is more worried about one nutjob with a lot of targets.

You can, and I could probably make Cowork drive the browser to do this (iirc I might have tried and it stopped cus it couldn’t access downloads pane); and I can do it manually. And…

WebAssembly doesn’t run only in the browser. WebAssembly runtimes can be effective sandboxing mechanisms for embedded plugins, serverless execution, etc.

Are you aware of extension_control_path? [0] Since PG18 it allows specifying multiple non-$system directories for extension control paths, which makes it easier to adopt composable…

If you can’t see the watermark (you called it “invisible”) then what’s the issue?

But it’s available in Claude Code. I’m hoping that’s a typo missing a word or two in the sentence.

Because the interface sucks. It previews in an embedded viewer, exports to pptx, imports into Google Slides, then I can edit it there but if I want to make further edits on other s…

The article says that all images have SynthID watermark which is invisible mark indicating the image was AI generated. Why would you prefer otherwise? Seems like tragedy of the com…

Can it make diagrams that can be imported into .pptx or google slides as actual diagrams (SVG in PowerPoint I guess) i.e. you can move the components, there are real arrows, etc… o…
