Amazon says it's in stock right now. Costco also has it online and says it's on the shelf at my local warehouse.

It was literally available from the first two places I checked.

Due to the HN length limitation, it was necessary to abbreviate the title. Originally: "AI Film ‘Gods Don’t Give Gifts’ Sets First Trailer for December Theatrical Run, Plans Oscar Bid for Best Animated Feature".

New comment by Ariarule in "Beam: Reflection's 501B open-weight model"

Ariarule — Mon, 05 Oct 2026 19:30:19 +0000

Always glad to see more open-weight models, but this caption on the 2nd demo image had me do a double-take: "Land or Water Generalization Experiment: We recreated the viral X puzzle by asking Beam to create a fixed 180×90 grid for longitudes -179° to 179° and latitudes -89° to 89°, with 16,200 points. This puzzle is a few days old, so could not appear in the training data, thus testing the model’s generalization. Beam gets 95.5% coverage right, putting us between Opus 5 (92.5%) and Fable 5 (97.8%), which shows how well it generalizes to novel new tasks."

Oof, no, this "puzzle is a few days old" is incorrect even if it's a social media trend just recently. Asking a model to generate a world map in this way is _at least_ from August 2025 as it appeared on LessWrong at that time: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/xwdRzJxyqFqgXTWbH/how-does-a...

New comment by Ariarule in "'That's so AI ' What gen Alpha's biggest insult tells us"

Ariarule — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 16:30:34 +0000

No byline, acknowledging that it's part of series that usually doesn't have them. Google trends has nothing for the phrase right now. UD, as of this writing, never heard of the expression (although don't be too surprised if someone swoops in to "correct" that later). Even for a generation that's ostensibly not going to have a huge social media footprint yet, that's rather remarkable for a supposed "biggest insult".

Ok, if they're meant to be marketed for food service, like a bakery regardless of who actually purchases them, then that does makes sense.

Huh? Processed ingredients don't generally get a pass on nutritional labeling requirements in the US. A bag of flour in a grocery store should have a label.

Whose actions are these proposals intended to constrain?

That is also the title I see clicking through into the page, although it seems to be 24 characters over the limit, so that _some_ change to OP would have have been required to submit it.
