Thank you for pointing that out. But it still doesn’t support what you said, which is that only 65% of pangram’s fully AI claims are accurate. The “65% strict accuracy” rating is f…

Your citation was incorrect. The data also shows that pangram reliably tells the difference between those two cases. The statistic you made up or hallucinated is not supported by y…

Did you read the paper you are linking to? It records a 0% false positive rate for evaluation of human-authored controls, and fewer than 5% of the hybrid and humanized papers had t…

Oh you’re right - sorry, I forgot that everyone knows that the key ideas of the article are correct so they don’t require any evidence. To drop the sarcastic frame - the article ei…

It’s pretty interesting to read what’s basically a long series of substantive empirical claims without a single citation. All the evidence necessary to support this argument is fur…

I think this attitude is the reason that Elon is going to get away with agreeing with the statement in public. Most stories tiptoe around how extreme the statement is, and as a res…

It’s very obvious that Elon and co would rather us concentrate on a blog post by someone else than his own words, words which are the real cause of this controversy. To that end, a…

This is very transparently a gross, cruel attempt to parody and belittle trans people, as is made clear by the people involved and the language: “7 Tips on How To Come Out as Enhan…

I appreciate that you are making an argument and will respond when I get a chance later in the day and after I read a few of the links - I’m familiar with like half of them.

If the existence of C cves in the kernel proves that it is impossible to write correct C, then by the same token any cves in any rust code prove the same thing about rust. This is …

Oh wow, someone should alert the Linux kernel maintainers. Do you want to tell them that it’s impossible to write correct C code? And the rust compiler team, too. After all, if nob…

I’m going to not engage on the Fauci/covid question (although I think you’re misremembering which subject he was less than forthright about - it was the efficacy of masking, and th…

The opposite is true: These 444 cases of blood clots are after an estimated 24.9 million first [Astrazeneca] doses, and 24.2 million second doses of the vaccine in the UK. Of the 4…

Interesting caveat, I didn’t know that.

Your voting history is publicly available (nothing about who you vote for, just whether or not you vote in a given election year). There have been several studies showing that mess…

Yes, that’s a good point. But it seems to me like that’s a matter of degree, right? Like, even stipulating that the chips themselves are not fungible across products and companies,…

I really don’t understand this. Chips are tangible goods, not services where, for example, a bunch of hospitality capacity went to waste during the pandemic. Any “extra” chips will…

Done. Thanks for mentioning the paste service cli, had no idea and am definitely going to be using it!

If anyone is interested, here are the results on my M1 Pro running Asahi Linux: Min: 48.3 Max: 175.0 Mean: 133.0 I’ll try to copy the exact results once I have a browser on Asahi, …

I'm surprised nobody has raised concerns about the authors. This group is notorious for producing near-fraudulent preprints in support of their preconceptions and widely publicizin…

You would tell by checking whether he had been asked for comment on the story before making the claims that there would be political attacks on him, which would reveal that he twee…

Hey all, I'd like to share something I've been working on for a while: HacheQL. HacheQL is a developer library and NPM package that makes it possible to cache GraphQL queries and r…
