Oh I agree that's not unreasonable. I wonder about the harnessing heft required to make it feasible though. If I say I'd like it a bit warmer, a tool can deterministically bump a f…

I confused by the dispatch model. Tool calls typically need some reasonability to be deterministic and, more importantly, predictable in response (o/w GIGO). Why would the thermost…

I'm surprised we're not seeing heaps of lawsuits here. Age verification in general violates privacy.

Just so you know, Tailscale tech has always impressed me, but your responsiveness here has cemented my appreciation of your org and I look forward to bringing yall in as our compan…

FoodGaloreMap. Focuses on the abundance without the negative miser association. Or FoodMiser works too, just lean into it as a beautiful brand. Because good and plentiful food for …

Thoughtleader as a brand is oversubscribed. Trusted is way less so -- and he is both.

His was the only Packt book (on ML, circa 2019 IIRC) that I have never regretted purchasing. Clear thinker, attention to details, and clean coder. Highly recommend.

Brilliant irony!

Steve Jobs said something about good and great artists.

Regarding me being a pretentious nimrod: no doubt there are many subscribers to this frame of mind. Clarifying my structural comment: since LLMs are next token generators, they fal…

This made me belly laugh.

Always, structurally.

These benchmarks look a bit off - many times faster than C++ / Rust? Are these independently implemented?

Yuck. Post the pay band if you want to be taken seriously.

Paywalled. "Chinese AI" models (or, not corporate models serving REST endpoints with highly fluctuating prices) are fine if you can afford to self-host or otherwise work independen…

That sounds like a great idea. Let's stop killing people altogether. It's almost entirely unnecessary.

Audit them for what, exactly? Backdoor hardware is straightforward -- its letting people in that the customer doesn't authorize. Open weights means you aren't tied to any harnessin…

Its a nice benchmark. Like hearing the ice cream truck on a summer day.

Oh, absolutely. But it could be used right and well in a broader solarpunk framework :D

If we are just talking about "enforcing policy" then which specific policy was being enforced when Renée Good and Alex were killed? Renée was a U.S. citizen driving her six-year-ol…

Aye. I find it reasonable to reduce it to: if people are dying that shouldn't be killed, time to question how we got there.

Reading comprehension is critical to ensure you don't ignore the whole picture, which you are doing. > began moving forward and to the right, into the direction of traffic You can …

Yeah, but part of that is that national sovereignty is a just-so-happens meme of an idea that sticks around because we all agree that it should and alternative arrangements could b…
