The parent I replied to said frontier weights were “being stolen” which is not the literal case. I think precision is important here.

How are weights stolen from the frontier model developers? What is that actual mechanism?

This is how I worked with LLMs originally, and I much preferred it. This gave me a much better understanding of the code that I was adding. But, there's no way to keep up with my t…

Imagine if this were built into browsers and you only had to serve a SQLite file.

And the United States Digital Service (USDS) aka the thing they renamed to DOGE.

Ironic, the picture on this article appears to be AI generated. I thought the Sony CD player looked neat, and I'd never seen one like it before. I thought I might try to buy one on…

Brain/computer interface that completely simulates inputs which drive perceptions which are indistinguishable from reality. At least, that’s what is portrayed in the movie. I’m not…

I wonder how it avoids pipes stubbed up through the slab, or electrical EMT, etc. or how it avoids mistakes made during the rough-in. What if the plumber missed a drain or supply b…

> because you almost certainly weren't watching those shows on linear television anyways. I'm just one person, but I definitely am watching the local PBS over an antenna, and so do…

It's 15% for PBS, and CPB != PBS and CPB != NPR.

As an American, having traveled in Europe a few times and dined out a lot, I much prefer the culture of just leaving me alone and letting me signal the waiter to come over when I n…

I’ve been to the beach more times than I can count, over a lifetime living in Florida . Loud music, yes, cars and especially big trucks, yes. But I’ve never seen people just pack u…

Deleting USAID may have escaped “cultural war” containment and gone on to becoming something with real, material impact.

If I remember right, win2k had the dog. It would appear during Explorer search.
