I’m feeling more a novice every day, but how isn’t this just handing over your code to team deepseek for whatever they might want

I don’t find it at all reasonable that closed source models are more efficient. The people involved had different circumstances and it naturally affects their work

Does the hammer lie to you that everything is a nail?

Can a voltmeter _lie_ to you?

EE are expected to know when their measurements are wrong. And Professional Engineers are legally accountable for consequences of such mistakes.

> are [we] beginning to attribute too little mind to humans.

I don’t think this way of thinking started with LLM. Does Systems Based Thinking also attribute too little mind to humans?

For Microsoft, free isn’t free… It puts them in a position of advantage. However, I still agree this is abusing goodwill and is rather disgraceful.

What does this mean?

Perhaps somehow related to founding protestants fleeing catholic persecution. It’s the sort of thing that will leave the world blind.

I know your ipv4 address, 127.0.0.1. :)

There’s something to be said for human readable addresses. I’m a little nostalgic of how the .hack world was envisioned, where servers had address names like Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground.

If roughly 10 million words exist, then allowing any three words in order creates a space for 10^21 addresses… five words and you’re close to ipv6 address space, six words and there’s more combinations than ipv6 addresses.

I’m not afraid of the llm, but also acknowledge that some people _feel_ a fear of theft by soulless robots.

What I do fear is the possibility of megacorp robots being the only ones… local and “dark” technology are essential.
