Now we are getting downgraded models that do 100x COT because it's cheaper.

Pros know these are lower cost models.

I have a hard time knowing if anti AI is a mental illness or propaganda coming out of China.

Unironically.

Separately, why would anyone use a Debian based desktop OS? Your $11 Amazon mouse won't work. An Nvidia card won't work. Just use Fedora.

If you don't live in Europe, you would never choose Mistral. You'd pick a US model for state of the art. You'd pick a Chinese model for local stuff.

If they want to do either, the LLM needs to write programming scripts which takes far too long for every millisecond of movement.

I think it will work in Europe, but the United States is in a cold war with China, so I can't imagine the United States would intentionally disable themselves.

3rd tier quality proped up by European governments and European patriots.

I don't even know what I'd do if I was in their position. They seem unable to complete... Maybe they do the classic European protectionist thing European farmers do.

I don't know what I'd do if I was the EU. Maybe promote the opposite of what Mistral is doing and promote full unrestricted AI that will tell you how to download illegal videos. Mistral had 0 competitive edge.

Think AMA/ACGMe

Getting some 9-11 security theater vibes.

But dear... Google has no idea that they have/had the genuine nerds and are blowing it.

Not that Apple is better, but they lose a huge selling point.

But fdroid is GOAT. They could make me hand type the exact app I want and I'm sure the app will be better than the ad ridden play store equivalent.

I let my kids have phones on road trips and I only installed educational games from fdroid.

No concern they will click buttons that are going to attempt to make a purchase or go to an external Web site.

Same story with guitar tuner apps.

They just work.

One is ambitious, the other is a nepo baby.

Probably the biggest problem with medical is that it's incredibly regulated for the industry's benefit.

And rethoric doesn't matter in international relations. It's empty posturing. When is France going to send troops to Ukraine?

Sorry pals, this is one of the failings/successes of k12. We are taught Idealism. Words don't matter.

It's wild the disconnect between people who study international relations and highly educated westerners.

Remember Chinese accounts on US Facebook say data centers are bad.

The UN is a ceremonial organization that occasionally we get agreement on measurement units.

That's not what they teach in school though, and I think that genuinely is misinformation for Americans trying to understand international relations.

K12 teachers could almost get away with the one sentence: "Right is only a question among equals, for the strong do what they can, and the weak suffer as they must."

Apple distortion field or something?

Since we can't mention Apple marketing making comments on hacker news, let's say they are on Reddit. :D
