The people running the government literally do not care. They only care about evading responsibility for decades of crimes by smashing all accountability mechanisms, disabling all …

Ohhh look, value prediction. Exactly the kind of thing that led to Spectre. There will be a cottage industry of information leaks and mitigations for a decade.

It's actually refreshing when a model is sure about something because it actually tested it and has the receipts. Opus 5 seems really good about testing its own knowledge with expe…

The fact that Claude knows I wrote the Virgil compiler makes it be on its best behavior when working on it. I force it to not write too much code, and to write more tests. I push b…

> How can someone serious even think that’s ok. Because no one is serious anymore. I hate to say it, but anyone this lazy is absolutely asking to be replaced by AI.

Google's problem is that, fundamentally, they hate end users. They do not want to hear feedback from them, they don't want to fix their bugs. They don't want to hear your thoughts …

Why anyone trusts any streaming music service is absolutely beyond me. It will always get enshittified. I have 65GiB of mp3s I've accumulated from ripping CDs over the years and it…

Wait, what? Virgil targeting the JVM does rely on that to represent vacuous arrays like `Array `. That's annoying.

Google has never been good at supporting developers, and it absolutely loathes end users. Support for everything that is not their ad ecosystem is miserable. There's never any long…

Let me explore the codebase to get the full picture before diving in.

It's amazing 3D going on, and then 80% of the visual space is popups that completely block it. It'd be have a nice prominent ways of reducing the noise, and that pops were partiall…

I think that is pretty ungenerous. Before ARM, ISAs were not a commodity, and there were only closed, proprietary implementations of them (usually from a single vendor). Arm licens…

The wild thing is that this SoC is a heterogenous compute device. It has three different kinds of cores: a pretty beefy arm64 core and two different RISC-V cores: a 1Ghz one for ru…

I want to run music models on the Milk-V and have them jam in realtime with me.

It's crazy what $5 can buy you in a microcontroller these days. Have a look at these Milk-V boards: https://milkv.io The duo has up to 256MB of memory, and a 1TOPS@INT8 TPU. They r…

This is awesome. IMHO things like this were the whole point of CSS. Nice job!

An incredibly ironic comment.

We forgot to run it in docker. Oopsie

Before LLMs took off I legitimately thought that most people would be paranoid enough to air-gap the first AIs that even had a remote chance of sentience so they didn't hack their …

I feel like I've seen this movie.

I think over-complicated and over-engineered are not the same thing. Over-complicated is adding too many features, too much mechanism, too many moving parts. Over-engineering is fa…

There was a long concerted effort to disable all the accountability mechanisms. A massive failure across the board, at every level, in every party. Now that the entire justice syst…

> The primary check on government growth Disagree. The primary check on the government is consequences for violating the law and the constitution. That's just all gone out the wind…

Hard disagree. Public funds are absolutely for funding research into things that affect the public on a large scale. That's the whole point. What could be more "general welfare", a…

Ah yes, we can't trust that our elected officials understand their duty well enough just fund Science and find out stuff works, so better throw up our hands and let the "market" do…
