I got all the way to round 53, but it turned out that one of my semiaquatic tetrapod ancestors from the Carboniferous Period didn't perform on land as well as they would have liked…

What would you call this behaviour, then?

"Traffic vioaltion fee" is a great translation. As far as I understand the logic behind them, they're meant for relatively minor violations where a fine would be kind of overkill a…

In Finland automatic camera fines (they're not exactly fines but I have no idea how to translate "liikennevirhemaksu" so work with me here) are the problem of whoever owns the car.…

I'm sure some bright spark will soon show up to say that it was actually NATO who was violating our airspace for decades , just like they're claiming that NATO is the one cutting c…

Do you understand that this has been going on for much longer than the US's Venezuelan murder spree, and longer than Trump has been president (this time around)? Also, as I said, w…

Yeah sure, we keep cutting our own telecoms cables multiple times per year, using Russian-operated ships as a front. The Eagle S (I think it was?) case was brought to court here in…

But the thing is that they aren't even making money; eg. OpenAI lost $11 billion in one quarter. Big LLMs are just so fantastically expensive to train and operate, and they ultimat…

Reality would be much funnier if I didn't have to live in it

LLMs really can't be improved all that much beyond what we currently have, because they're fundamentally limited by their architecture, which is what ultimately leads to this sort …

Based on your ad hominem of a reply I suppose it's safe to assume you don't have the experience, then

What about content that is illegal in the country that your "silo" is hosted in, like, say, CSAM (but you can really really substitute anything else illegal there, like eg. plannin…

What is your proposed alternative, though?

If there's something I'd expect Google to use a strong consistency model for, it'd be a credit system like that. Well, not that they don't do stupid things all the time, but having…

Exactly. A drop in the expected growth would absolutely cause a drop in valuation as investors reassess their holdings

So yes, it would have an effect; even with your imaginary numbers that'd be a 3x drawdown

What are you doing on Hacker News? You should be working on "AGI". This may come as a surprise to you, but us humans need entertainment

Also speaks to a lack of understanding on the author's part; people who truly understand some subject are generally much more adept at explaining it in simpler terms – ie without a…

How often did you IDE or editor refuse to do something it was generally capable of because it deemed the operation too frivolous in a context?

This'd be a valid analogy if all compiled / interpreted languages were like INTERCAL and eg. refused to compile / execute programs that were insufficiently polite, or if the runtim…

This is the sort of arrant pedantry up with which I will not put

Was it available at some point?

You see, accountability is useless because when nobody is accountable, someone will just literally design a bunch of tests for the AI

Ohh right yes, now I get what you mean. My brain just immediately went for "GC knobs" when you mentioned "knobs", but in my defense I'm running a 40°C fever so I should probably no…

Do most people need 20k images, or just a handful?
