Spent more time looking at this because I was still interested in the alpha it found and found this: "cumulative_after_cost_return": -0.004003033519454746" https://hub.harborframew…

The comment in the parent said "kind alphas the agent found". It linked to a job then a trial. All of the comments I read there except for one said things like "The final alpha che…

I looked through the transcript/output of the model/run linked but didn't find anything that showed much, if any, alpha. Maybe I missed it?

So many lakes do not have rivers flowing in and out. A low spot in an area will become a lake. Many do have rivers; many don't. Ponds even more so don't have attached rivers.

This doesn't provide an answer for lakes. But I always thought the explanation was eggs randomly getting stuck to bird feet. Or maybe a bird carries a fish with eggs up there and e…

No, it wasn't. I had it in there from the get go. I did not edit my comment for any reason, I don't think at least. Like I said in the original comment, you can be moderate/non-par…

You can be pro/fine with legal immigration (and moderate/non-partisan) and still not think birthright citizenship is a good idea (like I do). Also ~95% of countries don't have unco…

It's done to increase EPS per share and return cash to ongoing shareholders in a more tax friendly way, yes.

I’m disappointed and surprised you left out half of the conditions that grant him this compensation. You only included the one that suggests that all he has to do is buy a bigger c…

They refused to refund me $200 when I had both a claude code subscription and the other thing. I had been using credits or something. Essentially double paying. And they just refus…

My current guess is that you get much or most of the benefits, but not all (by both value and number). If you look at the actual changes in the body during both of these activities…

Also AI could help you pick those skills up again faster, although you wouldn’t need to ever pick those skills up again unless AI ceased to exist. What an interesting paradox-like …

Governmental filings are not PR and either are lawsuits. The lawsuit was won or at the very least validated by a judge.

No. I figured it was almost completely if not completely about OpenAI. These things tend to be quite lengthy and I do not have an hour to devote to reading things that don’t direct…

Yes I am sure of the second part based on the government’s own publicly available tweets and lawsuits that have been filed.

I do wonder exactly what he was doing to be considered a snake. I know he was working on other things, but what else was going on?

I mean he quit what he considered to be a problematic company, founded another one, that one’s models refused to do things that the previous company would do, then his new company …

I’ve never been annoyed with YouTube search. Product is great as far as I’m concerned. Love YouTube all around.

Make me an offer.

For kicks and giggles and because my wife was born in Yugoslavia I bought Yugoslavia.org a few years ago. Would like to do something meaningful with it.

This is not just OpenAI though. I don’t think this is new in general for these AI chat apps. Claude at the very least asks a question as the last part of its responses I believe ev…

It gave me a very wrong intro starting lesson number after saying I was second from the most advanced level and answering 26/26 of the intro questions correctly. It was showing me …

Like what would that look like? US citizens being shot in the back of the head by government agents? On a weekly basis?

Not sure why anyone thinks a judges order is worth anything in the USA anymore. I am not reassured at all.
