This was unexpected though:

> stills taken from videos of the synagogue's interior as well as the room leading to the tunnel, which showed a stained mattress and high chair, respectively, fueled antisemitic conspiracy theories

> A USA Today fact-check stated that the stained mattress seen in viral videos had been removed from behind wood paneling of the synagogue rather than from the tunnel itself, undermining online speculation that the mattresses were in the tunnel

But that doesn't mean they are not doing stuff. It's just HN doing HN things. At the moment we're into "AI is eating the world alive" and other topics are in the background.

Me: "I got this crash in production, looks like a segfault, let's try to fix it. Here are some functions that might be responsible."

Fable: "No. This is cybersecurity, blah blah, I won't help you"

I forgot how I got it to fix the bug eventually. I think I convinced it that it wrote the code and made a mistake. But it was definitely a "Hmm, may be I should use another model" moment".

I could see the government having a tax program or incentives to build charging stations. But the cars should have needed that, they should be selling themselves.

It's interesting to think how this affects self-perception. Basically this applies to how one views and treats themselves. One approach is to read book, take a test and put yourself in a bin: "well, I'll never be able to do xyz, the book said I am an abc". There is a danger there self-limiting and making the same mistake putting others in bins.

That's usually done in anger by people who have to read and update someone else's pages long "config" file, possibly outside version control, with lots of loops and external resource fetches and so on tearing their hair out "why isn't this a just a toml/json/yaml file".

I am sure there are other projects picking up json from a previous xml + xpath + other ...xml junk.

Simple config -> (Need to do more complicated things) -> Add override levels -> (Need even more flexibility) -> Add a Turing complete language -> (Things get ridiculous, lots of spaghetti code outside of version control. Time for a reset) -> goto "Simple config"

It's fine. I am not saying it's wrong or right. I've gone through the cycle a few times in some projects. On the other hand, think of it as your project is lucky to be used long enough to have these problems. To feel better about it think of it as a spiral. The next "Simple config" is a slightly better version of the first.

Yeah it’s interesting to see how they do. The big and award winning electric truck from Ford is already discontinued. If we’re talking about US pickups how many other ones are battery powered? If anything, I would be more worried about Slate given what happened to Ford Lightning.

> Who’s gonna hit the brakes if we need to?’” said one commenter, sharing the cemetery image that appears in the ad.

A human not captured by AI psychosis should review their PR comms! First it was the “some models are so dangerous government should restrict them”. Then, the dead soldiers commercial. What is going on at Anthropic? Are they getting desperate because of Kimi K3 or something?

Precedence in court decisions is weighted more in some places than others. US courts, from my pedestrian observation, are all into "well there is a precedent so we'll follow that". But other countries don't necessarily do that, their courts might be more eager to disregard it and do whatever they feel is appropriate in that situation. You can see it in how OpenAI reacted "The company also cited comparable trademark registrations previously granted by the EUIPO and registrations in more than 30 other countries, including the United Kingdom and Singapore" (well precedents say this and that...)

I am more pessimistic than that. Soon enough even people will start talking like LLMs. After listening to 5000 words per day, especially growing up, getting "help" with the homework, kids will start talking like LLMs.

- "Did you eat the cookies, Jimmy?"

- "You're absolutely right to question me, father. In fact I did eat all the cookies. But it's not a load-bearing issue. My honest take is we can go to the store and buy more".

So you buy a device but you can't effectively use half of its features because you'd also have to agree to send them your medical records? Ok then if I refuse, will they refund 50% of the device price since now it's not usable any more?
