THIS administration? As if we just arrived here in 2024?
Yes. This administration. The Trump administration. Clear enough?

#342The dod was granted an exemption from the termination of anthropic contracts. It has several more months to divest. Poor reporting by axios, and poor skepticism by HN

it doesn't take bias to spot the corruption in this government; yes, there have always been problems, but the level of corruption and grift in this administration is truly unprecedented (you'd have to go back to before Civil Service Reform Act to find possibly comparable levels). but if you have examples from previous admins, feel free to explain how they're comparable

the original commenter is correct in that at the time of commenting he was downvoted without a valid argument transaction having completed. i dont believe that tone policing has any effect in this instance, outside of virtue signalling
A transaction can't complete if one were never opened. I am wrapping this comment thread in a finally and returning.
its not clear whether youre ramping up the virtue signalling, being polite, or trying to be the argumentative strongman. if you care about the way you look to me, the former and latter would probably be my perception of you. out of good faith i shall follow the middle option and execute the jump instruction myself.

In my experience sonnet I have no reason to believe that the next generation won’t offer similar gains in verification, and there is some evidence to support that the cybersecurity implications are the result of exactly this expansion of ability.
It depends on how you review. In an orchestrated per-task review workflow with clearly defined acceptance criteria and implementation requirements, using anything other than Sonnet (handed those criteria and requirements) hasn’t really led to much improvement, but it drives up usage and takes longer. I even tried Haiku, but, yeah, Haiku is just not viable for review, even tightly scoped, lol. Siccing Sonnet on a code…
That makes sense, if your scope is tight enough, good enough is good enough. I’ve got the expected specifications and code style guides, including some aerospace engineering ones, but in complex systems I still run into difficult to sus out corner cases where the code works but the system breaks, usually due to unresolved conflicts in operational requirements.

#346The whole artificial scarcity Anthropic created around Mythos / Glasswing is quite brilliant to be honest (I’m Not saying ethical, just brilliant). The commercial gains are one side of course. But consider this: Gets labelled supply chain risk by the pentagon. Hypes up what they claim to be the most advanced hacking tool on the planet. This puts the US government into a loose / loose position. Either deny the NSA acc…
it's a taste of what's to come, the anointed class with access to the latest and greatest model in exchange for favours or $$$$, and an underclass making do with the hobbled toy models.

The zamboni of fascism is slowly moving towards us, and we are jist laying on the ice waiting to be sliced up
points for using a zamboni as a metaphor, genuinely impressed
Unfortunately while evocative, it doesn't really make sense.
A Zamboni has a "conditioner" at the rear that contains a sharp horizontal blade that shaves the ice as the machine runs across the ice. The blade is a bit like a very wide wood-plane. It is sharp and controlled to be a little below the current surface of ice. The shavings are moved to a waste tank using an internal horizontal auger and vertical auger.
You usually couldn't get near enough to the blade to have a close enough shave for it to harm you. However I'm guessing a Zamboni could hurt you in other ways.
Disclaimer: I only skimmed the details . . . I'm sure applying the right amount of intelligence could discover harmful means.

#349Somewhat related: someone posted a theory on reddit that Claude Code's new /ultrareview actually uses Mythos. Does that seem plausible to anyone else? It runs on their cloud. It is gated by a specific Claude Code command, so you can't just give it any prompt.
No

Plot twist it gets acquired by the US govt.
If this happens it's not going to take the form of them getting "acquired", they're going to end up forced to become a defense contractor like Lockheed Martin or Raytheon where their primary customer is the USG and all of their sales require governmental approval.
I don't think anyone forced ockheed Martin or Raytheon to become defense contractors.
