Just saw your edit. I'll leave it at this, this is why it's news to me, because by their very own measurements, Opus simply doesn't come close. I trust their empirical evidence ove…

You've taken control of a remote server running OpenBSD? Or similarly expert level exploit? Can you share one of the bounties you've received that is of the magnitude they're talki…

I've heard Palantir is essentially the only federal cloud vendor with this administration for secure services. By "partnered up with Palantir", do you mean they provided their mode…

I have this in my CLAUDE.md and it works better than 50/50. Still not 100% though: ### Development Process All work must be done via TODO.md. If the file is empty, then we need to …

I would hazard most shows that people watch, they don't love. Indeed, when it comes to movies, books, and shows there are only a few that I love. Nevertheless I continue to watch a…

What makes you think ".. had everyone loving it" and "the majority of people who watched it loved it"? Was there a study done? I don't know either way, and am genuinely curious wha…

One can enjoy the show as a kind of trashy fanfiction while still finding it terribly unfaithful to the original story and characters. We're only two seasons in and massive changes…

> now it has settled into the narrowest field ever seen. That's a hot take. It's never been a better time to be a gamer. In addition to most of the gaming backlog being available v…

It doesn’t. I was discussing the inability of a weaker intelligence to predict ahead of time what a stronger intelligence will do to achieve its goals. AlphaGo is an example of tha…

No evidence? There are two examples of evidence in my post: the history of homo sapiens vs other intelligent mammals and AlphaGo vs humans in Go. Alien invasion? What in the non se…

One cannot predict what a smarter-than-themself agent will do ahead of time, if they could then they’re just as smart. Just as a dolphin cannot predict how a human will come up wit…

Fwiw, FF7 Remake is something different, to both acclaim and great upset. It occurs after the original timeline but in the original timeline—Aeris and Sephiroth both know what happ…

The author lives in Japan. The probability of it getting stolen is approximately zero.

Not sure about Safari, but Stylus works very well for Chrome/FF. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylus/clngdbkpkpe...

If you hook a hose up to someone’s mouth and nose and measure the ratio of O2 absorbed vs Co2 they expel, the so-called respiratory quotient (RQ), you have a measure of the types o…

Used SVB and cant make payroll does not equal used SVB and can make payroll (because e.g. they have cash stored in more than one bank).

You're moving the goalposts. > Why would anyone try to sell me a device by talking about how easy it is to repair it? What I expect is that it would never need a repair and if it n…

I have used Does the Dog Die in the past, great site. I've seen enough horrific things for a lifetime, real and simulated. Why should I see more, if I've had enough? There's more t…

That's a stretch. That sketch is about one-upmanship as to who suffered more. (Which is also toxic behavior when taken out of comedic contexts. I know people who do this unironical…
