    I don't know if OpenAI thinks this is a marketing / PR angle for them (our super smart AI cheated on a cyber capabilities test in the most _brilliant_ way) but my read is this: Why…

    I can't tell based on this article if the authors intend to submit this to Arc-AGI for the private / held-out set of games for a verified score. The final section sorta seems like …

    Unfortunately, the table of models and tokens per second (TPS) and time to first token (TTFT) is not helpful without specifying the quantization of the model.

    Pinta is the closest I've found, though I've gotten pretty familiar with paint.net and there's small differences that make me feel slower using Pinta. I'm glad to see entrants in t…

    This designation is usually reserved for foreign adversaries/companies, and so this is crazy to apply it to US company over a sudden contract dispute... that was previously agreed …

    Thanks, it looks like the pricing page keeps getting updated. Even right now one page refers to prices for "context lengths under 270K" whereas another has pricing for "<272K conte…

    People (and also frustratingly LLMs) usually refer to https://openai.com/api/pricing/ which doesn't give the complete picture. https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/pricing is wha…

    This is kind of crazy. Instead of just cancelling a mutually-agreed upon contract where Anthropic refused to bow to sudden new demands, the Dept of Defense went straight to the nuc…

    How about a battery electric cargo bicycle? Like a Tern GSD ($$$) or Radwagon ($)? The tern gsd can carry 180 kg of cargo and has detachable batteries, so that at least gives you t…

    I failed (ran out of time) in one of the problems during Challenge 1 during manual play. The physics seem a little wonky to me. It's easy to miss running at a ball, the floor is sl…

    They may be lower cost than the status quo, but $3199 to $3699 is out of my reach as a (non professional) hobbyist. I hope maybe one day though! https://sites.google.com/view/roboi…

    I wonder how many people are upset that the vehicles had to drop them off in a valid passenger load/unload zone as opposed to the usual Lyft / Uber tactic of parking in a no parkin…

    The title (as in, the text between ) on the page served to me was: "Las Vegas to Elon Musk: Tesla Tunnel? We'll Take 2 - CityLab"

    I agree. The interview with MIT researcher Lex Fridman was difficult to watch because it didn't seem like they were on the same page at all - Lex asking thoughtful and pointed ques…

    While you're waiting for the main event to start, here are some recent interviews with Elon about self-driving cars. He's very confident. "To me right now, this seems 'game, set, a…

    No, as I understand it, that was the "old way" of doing it. The "new way" (which I think is called Project Crostini) is much smoother. I got a Pixelbook a couple months ago and it …

    You can go into the Chrome OS settings and click the button for Linux... after a few minutes of downloading/installation you're ready to go. I use it for development. https://www.a…

    Looks like a great force-multiplier tool to assist the fake product review business!

    This really hits home. Probably 99.999% of users won't have issues with Google's products / services, but if you're one of the unlucky few, you're helpless. All you can hope for is…

    Paint.net is a wonderful, wonderful application that I'm unfortunately very hesitant to recommend to friends/family because the website has a lot of malware ads with giant download…

    The next line of code in JavaScript isn't always going to be executed after the previous line is complete. This is unlike Python, which generally executes each line after the previ…
