    That doesn't really answer the question of how they're going to detect it at scale. Ban repositories with long comments?

    > A 3rd party hosting platform like fireworks.ai that hosts open weights models won't provide any of that at all. Why couldn't they?

    So then bots will just intentionally fail the test?

    It's equally signaling that other US-based labs can't provide reliable access to their closed-weight models.

    Verifying that every step in a (potentially long) proof is sound can of course be much, much harder than verifying that a definition is correct. That's kind of the whole point.

    By "online wallet" they were likely referring to the Bybit website being the wallet of those customers that held their coins there rather than keeping them in their own private wal…

    They said nothing about not printing any non-primes.

    VanMoof bikes are known for breaking quickly. Calling them "so much better" than Cowboy based on a single bad experience doesn't seem totally reasonable.

    Simply twisting a single corner piece or flipping a single edge piece achieves that already, without having to mess with the stickers.

    Whether or not it is a coincidence depends on whether Obsidian planned this. Apple isn't going to base their release schedule on something like this.

    Give Copilot a try, it has been way more reliable for me in terms of giving good code suggestions than ChatGPT so far.

    That's probably an impossible task. The best they can do is ask contestants nicely not to do this, but that opens the can of worms of whether tools like GitHub Copilot should not b…

    Right, but will they be eligible the year after? If not, then this still means that not surpassing the threshold could increase their revenue in the long run.

    Not to mention that that was a comment on GitHub, not on Reddit, even though the "far, far, far over the line" statement was about "the now-usual Reddit uproar". I guess Klabnik ju…

    Yeah, that comment on the GitHub issue was definitely over the line, but it wasn't on Reddit. The comments in the subreddit were higher in volume, but way more reasonable.

    You're not wrong, but the author's code does in no way rely on the fact that you could theoretically iterate over all the valid Int values in Swift, so it would have made no differ…

    I'm not a huge fan of Optional.matching (also commonly called Optional.filter) because you may want to "filter" non-optionals as well, i.e. T -> Optional given a predicate. Unfortu…

    I think the lack of left-right symmetry was the surprising bit.
