I seriously doubt that the FaceMash guy was planning mass surveillance from day one. The people who propped him up might have, though.

In a society where government is not participating in helping people with their health care, what moral right does it have to make "unhealthy" things illegal?

Why is a language model bad at video games? I think the answer is stated in the question itself.

That's why I prefer relying on a custom setup based on a Claude Code. Much less surprises, especially if you don't rush into the models prematurely unless forced.

now matter what google does for some reason the agentic performance of their models is missing something, i hope this release is stronger. we need more competition.

I love it. The RAM is not a problem because Apple knows a dirty secret – apps adapt to the environment both at runtime at design time. Give them less RAM, they'll allocate less and clean caches more sooner.

Counting 38 acquired companies as dead is misleading the reader.

I'm convinced that at some point looking like being productive and being productive becomes the same thing.

New distraction is coming in! All eyes on this now!

Man, they really don't think much of their voter base or ordinary people for that matter.

Turned out they just were the selfish assholes everyone always said they were, with everything they say just being poor attempts at rationalization of their deep lack of morals, including their self-serving primitive religion.

Are we essentially looking at the infrastructure for the first mass prompt injection-based worm? It seems like a perfect storm for a malicious skill to execute a curl | bash and wipe thousands of agent-connected nodes off the grid.

You really picked a wrong target for your ridiculous attacks. 2swap is a mathematical artist, not Khan Academy. There's plenty of boring lectures on youtube already on every topic.

What an annoying comment to read about such an incredible video. Both me and my son enjoyed it a lot. It's an educational art piece with beautiful and insightful visualizations.

Zod's validation errors are awful, the json schema it generates for LLM is ugly and and often confusing, the types structures Zod creates are often unintelligible in the and there's even no good way to pretty print a schema when you're debugging. Things are even worse if you're stuck with zod/v3

The whole thing Trump and his minions are doing is so very reminiscent of what was happening in Russia during its turn to fascism. Similarities go to such an extreme degree across the board that I now feel there has to be at least a consultant from Moscow working with the current admin, if not full blown department at the FSB. Blatant lying, complete disregard of any laws, open rejection of norms and mockery of process, justification of extreme cruelty , obsession with some made up concept of “liberals”, and blaming everything on the predecessors (Putin is still trying to blame all the problems on the collapse of the Soviet Union).

I sincerely hope that people of the United States reject being treated like mindless cattle and choose freedom instead of what appears to be a complete and utter national-fascist tyranny.
