I don't think these did. They'd also quit because they felt it was too much work, now that the cybersecurity situation had gone mad.

I have heard of zero murders of NATO and EU agency people, and I think you're quite wrong. There are of course people like this, recruited on the internet in the many criminal netw…

I like the argument and it seems valid, but I have heard the opposite from people working in commercial cybersecurity.

Oh, in that case it is actually flipped.

Top US universities actually have higher teacher/student ratios than top EU schools, and I wouldn't be surprised if this pattern holds in general, so it would be easier to do in th…

Well, that's the deal, I assume-- that they weren't allowed to buy the Japanese light source outright, so they bought the American one, even though it required giving the Americans…

It isn't legally possible for them to do this at the EU level. The EU parliament would never vote for it. For pressure at the country level leading to this kind of thing I think it…

Yes, but surely the problem isn't that the law requires anything in particular, but rather that a bunch of books are getting bought by an organization that is likely to systematica…

I think what you want is a welfare state, not socialism. Socialism is not necessarily cuddly. "To each according to his contribution" is the one sentence description of it after al…

There's no stopping bioweapons. Bioweapons are easy. The reason bioweapons aren't built is because very few biology nerds with sufficient lab skills are evil; and just having an LL…

This is actually illegal here in Sweden though. Lawsuits are ongoing. I'm kind of surprised that there haven't been criminal cases.

How would that be justified, because as I see it would necessarily treat model outputs as more protected than actual human output? Surely Anthropic/OpenAI ToS isn't something which…

It's probably actually good, but after this stuff with Qwen-Image-3 and it's ability to things like render images that look like they were rendered with LaTeX or compose many thing…

Mm. Still, maybe less money could be enough. If Euclyd's chip costs 40k per chip and we want to substitute all worldwide H200 inference capacity, so let's say 700,000 H200eds and E…

I am actually not quite sure. Here in the EU Rhea 1 was delayed and thus maybe a bit of a failure, but Rhea 2 might be good and seems to be on time. OpenChip seems to be on time to…

Yes, but how would it have been if the EU governments just piled on, subsidized whoever had reasonable qualifications who wanted to try, straight-up funded accelerator development …

Yes, although then people came up with reasonable ways of parallelizing RNNs entirely or in part anyway. There's also the need for lookups in transformers. Queries still need to be…

I think the Kimi thing is super cool, especially that they have so many RNN/linear attention layers (3x more than they have full attention). I haven't yet tried it though. It seems…

I think the right idea is better patent examination. If patent examination is correctly performed, then all patents will have real novelty and the people who have to license a pate…

Yes, but NPEs are necessary if patents are to be a thing also for smaller inventors. An inventor can invent things that make a nuclear power plant cheaper or more efficient or bett…

A system is responsible for anything that happens when it is permitted to operate. You can't separate the EU from what people use it to do.

It's strongly connected to the structure of the EU though, and the weak control that voters have over appointments to the commission, and every level of indirection is one at which…

Left-leaning politics is not at all like early 1900eds left-leaning politics. Left-leaning politics has moved to very mild, not-even-social-democracy policies, taxation of wage inc…

I wouldn't say that making the matrix diagonal in some basis is some further step. If we have an singular value decomposition, M=USV^*, the columns of U are linearly independent th…
