But did it Blender open the source?

Full visibility of the source code is very different from having full legibility of the system: comprehensibility is the bottleneck. (Seems I ran out of edit time!)

The cause of this is that the cost of creating plausible code contributions has gone down, so PR proposals can multiply, but flaws still threaten project security and LLMs can be c…

I got a pocket-sized Bluetooth keyboard (also used for travel around Asia), 195mm x 85mm x 15mm, with a flap - NOT a foldable keyboard, though it does have a cover flap and a kicks…

I'm not sure that copying a key after unlocking the system counts as a backdoor? If the OS promises to lock access to the key and fails to do so then I can see the logic that peopl…

Would ADS-B Exchange heatmap files would be accessible at even DEFCON 2? Which raises the question of what it would show when the data sources are not available.

Yeah, though it's not great marketing. Especially for hiring interpretability researchers. Their own alignment research has reward model interpretability, personality features and …

It's a funny detail to skim, but what's more surprising is how mechanistic interpretability and alignment science have much better tools and research than the goblin blog post sugg…

`Is it really going to have ecosystem effects?` Will mandatory ID gatekeeping of developers have ecosystem effects? Surely the only question is how much? You may install apps over …

But the "opt-out" will not prevent ecosystem effects caused by the default shutdown of convenient app installs due to the policy. Not even for GrapheneOS users. It's a global polic…

Amazon blocking their agents is addressed by their own Chromium fork running on the users own device.

Hey akshayka, I'm not that teacher, but I am a fan, and I notice that marimo sharing would be easier if export and import from normal boring Spyder/Jupyter percent formatted .py fi…

So we need a new standard problem due to the complexity of the last standard? Isn't unicode supposed to be a superset of ASCII, which already has control characters like new space,…

Should we really buy the many months of switching difficulty argument? Surely the main API surface is a HTTP API like ChatCompletions? If it's the exact shape of Anthropic's API, t…

This is not off-topic at all!

Wow. Possible ways to kept Meta ad records honest and transparent: - CCing archive.org - Store on an append-only system with hashing, hello blockchain use-case ha ;D.. IPFS or even…

Currently it says they have released metadata and album art. Is archiving and sharing the textual track metadata alone (no images, no audio) legal in the US, or Europe? By what bas…

They have this page for reporting: https://github.com/hackclub/hcb/blob/main/SECURITY.md

Old man yells at cloud: that's not what "literal killer" means.

I had the same reaction as them many months ago, the Google Cloud and Vertex AI stuff namespacing is a too messy. The different paths people might take to learning and trying to us…

I'd lower the temperature and try DSPy Refine loop on it (or similar). Using audio encoder-decoder models and segmentation are good things to try too. A length mismatch would be ba…

Simon, sorry I didn't get around to answering your question on post-t5 encoder-decoders from the Markdown Lethal Trifecta prompt injection post. ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item…

I am very picky, hard to place, but from a quick look at the README, I'd say the API interface on display seemed like the right level of abstraction for having to deal with the mes…
