Is the system prompt available somewhere? Can it be modified?

Can't root it out, it's part of the system. Sortition is the best we can hope for now.

I know Anthropic has blocks on using Claude for security reasearch; Are they not blocking Reverse engineering or RE tools?

Is there a way to check if I was affected? Does Meta know who was affected?

Context: I did not study CS in college & wished I had so I read the python data science handbook, K&R's C, and Stroustrup's Programming Practice and Principles. I spend a significant amount of time bashing my head against getting code for personal projects to work (it usually did, eventually!).

I am way way way more capable with AI agents for this experience than if I had not invested the time. I can look at the code they wrote & decide if it's good enough or a bad idea. I have instincts about how to do things. I am much more able to plan things with them. My coworkers with degrees are wildly productive.

If you think you will be interacting with code in any significant way, I would at least read those three books, they will help you understand "how computers really work". If you want to have a career in making software, then definitely learn to write programs without AI.

Awesome, thank you! this is a good starting point!

Yeah that reeks of marketing to me. This guy may believe all those things, but his getting paid may also depend upon his believing them.

How certain are we about the theory our minds waveforms are continuous? Can we prove physical continuity, or just up to planck-length resolution?

I'm poorly educated on this, these are sincere questions. They are not intended as rhetorical regarding the point of the prior post.

I really wantt to get into splatting and I have the tools: good camera, v comfy in blender, comfy with graphics programming ideas, 4080. But I haven't found a good 'all in one intro' to it yet. Possibly because I'm foss-biased and have dismissed proprietary options. But does anyone know of a good 'vertical tutorial' on this stuff?

This is a fair criticism. I was lucky enough to grow up on blender and spend lots of free time with it, so all of this stuff is second-nature to me. I am not the standard case, but when software insists on holding my hand and abstracting stuff away it feels patronizing and frustrates me so much I will change my life to avoid using the software.

>just get out of my way and let me get something done

Funny, that's how I think of easy/beginner modes: "in the way, preventing me from getting something done".

What an interesting and obvious approach, wish I'd thought of it. Tell me more about your inquiry for the answers the doctor avoided.

Tangential, but where do you draw the line on commercial advertisement? If a podcast is sponsored by a business & supports behavior the business benefits from, is the podcast advertising? What if it also contains useful educational content related to that activity?

Elaborate? Data centers using water or something?

How are they just for chat / questions?

I mean, the industrial revolution probably could have gone a little better.

Can anyone give me a semi-technical reason on why the hydrogen division are delusional? I'm actually convinced of it "osmotically", but I just don't know enough about it. I've got chem 101 behind me but otherwise I'm a finance & tech guy. It would be nice to actually understand why it can't be done though.

Horseshit. It means we're doing less with more and anyone with a brain should be able to figure out that's bad for Quality of Life on a long term. Wasting your resources is not how an economy grows strong.

Provide a credible link or gtfo.

Btw I have no love for Israel, but "just google it" is an uninformative, unhelpful comment

Thank you for elucidating!

Can't they just raise prices?

>Compare it to a flag carrier like Singapore air and it is a shockingly different product

Never flown one of these, can you describe the difference? Hard agree about what you said about the others.

Can you elaborate on your claim about capitalism and all activities being about trading imaginary units? My uni gave me a degree in finance & I can still basically explain CAPM off the top of my head, but I'm unfamiliar with this aspect. Always interested in expanding my understanding.

How did apple make it unusable? What model?

Does it not level from gravity like other resins?

I'm reading that turp does not dissolve it, which is ideal so I can mix paint on top of it.

I'm new to it and having trouble finding guides:

- how do I apply it as a coating? I want it to be ~ 1/6" to 1/8" thick and as hard as possible

- will turpentine dissolve or soften it?

Oil painter here, this is news to me and if it doesn't dissolve in gamsol this is EXACTLY what I've been looking for for about 2 years.

Which, unfortunately is still slow unusable garbage compared to fronteir models.

Yep. QE was a monumental mistake that killed economic mobility. Asset owners vs wage earners.
