christkv··on Claude Fable 5
Meh more hype for marginal improvements and from Im hearing badly calibrated guardrails causing it to stop mid operation. I guess anything to juice an IPO
christkv··on Nvidia is proposing a beast of a CPU system for Windows PCs
I don’t think there is much improvement in compute for the new strix halo revision. The next one supposedly adds rdna4 cores or similar and more memory channels
christkv··on South Korean forums will need to scan every images with AI censorship tools
The whole uk establishment including the civil service is one giant expression of fabian thought. The civil service runs itself, appointing itself and ignoring political power. Labour with Starmer just happens to a time where fabians are in control of the entire state.
christkv··on Show HN: I reverse-engineered the world maps of Test Drive III (1990 DOS game)
Me and some friends spent so much time playing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stunt_Island
christkv··on Alphabet announces $80B equity capital raise to expand AI infra and compute
Why are they able to do this without offering it to the market being a public company.
christkv··on Anthropic confidentially submits draft S-1 to the SEC
Did mythos write the S-1? It better not have been a human given the amount of hype they are pushing.
christkv··on Unix in East Germany (GDR) (1990)
Is the load balancing algorithm equitable?
christkv··on A 10 year old Xeon is all you need
Makes you wonder if its possible to squeeze more tps out of a strix halo system using the 16 zen5 cores as well as the gpu.
christkv··on The Pewdiepie Agent Framework
Yeah I know it's that Pewdiepie who just launched his own agent framework.
christkv··on Please Do Not Vibe Fuck Up This Software
Would have to be on all repositories I think.
christkv··on Please Do Not Vibe Fuck Up This Software
Can GitHub add a tag to repositories that says "probably vibe coded" or "ai code detected"
christkv··on Claude Opus 4.8
I'm going to assume that at some point their "targeted training and tuning" will eventually reach some sort of "max" possible simulation of next good token. At that point I think it will be interesting to see what happens and how many parameters you really need to for different verticals.
christkv··on Citing 'severe' math deficits, UC faculty demand a return to SAT tests for STEM
It is very well funded but the money has gone to the new administrative layers of busybodies instead of the people in the classrooms.
christkv··on Tech CEOs are apparently suffering from AI psychosis
lol just reminds me of the SNL sketch about Kylo Ren undercover boss https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaOSCASqLsE
christkv··on Tech CEOs are apparently suffering from AI psychosis
I heard the term AI vampire as well for people sleeping 4h hours just for another hit of that prompt drug.
christkv··on Why AI Agents Cannot Change Software Systems
I find it works if you do it in small parts of the system but systemwide really creates a lot of slop.
christkv··on Nvidia Vera CPU Benchmarks: Olympus Cores Delivering Great Performance
This is going to be a small fortune I imagine. The closest AMD processors is about 10k usd per cpu + ram etc. 35k - 60k depending on amount of RAM?
christkv··on Spain blocks prediction markets Polymarket, Kalshi over lack of gambling licence
Most of Spain did not even know polymarket existed until a couple of days ago.
christkv··on Spain blocks prediction markets Polymarket, Kalshi over lack of gambling licence
Lol it could not possibly be the coincidence that there were bets on ex prime minister Zapatero going to jail before the 30th of June or other meme bets making the rounds in Spain in the last couple of days.
christkv··on Ebola Outbreak Now Third Largest Recorded and "Spreading Rapidly"
sure but's not flu or covid in ability to spread.
christkv··on Ebola Outbreak Now Third Largest Recorded and "Spreading Rapidly"
Sure https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4456362/ it outlines history and spread. incubation period is long but there is no asymptomatic transmission that is known.
christkv··on Ebola Outbreak Now Third Largest Recorded and "Spreading Rapidly"
Do you know how big this area is and how difficult it is?
christkv··on Ebola Outbreak Now Third Largest Recorded and "Spreading Rapidly"
That it does not spread that easily and that its current spread is more a combination of factors in the specific area. War, hunger, refugees, culture and lack of education. It’s to say it’s hard for it to land and expand. Once you have symptoms the patient is also very quickly immobilized reducing the spread further.
christkv··on Ebola Outbreak Now Third Largest Recorded and "Spreading Rapidly"
You are only infectious during illness and it requires contact with fluids. It's exasperated by local funeral rituals where people interact with the dead body and get infected.
christkv··on Actually, democracy dies in H.R.
So who will make it better when it's the entire establishment (all legacy parties) who all are colluding to drive towards the police state?
christkv··on Hanoi’s humble beer glass and the memory of a nation
Talking about weird cultural things. Pretty much every Spanish household has at least some of their drinking glasses made up of the glasses used by Nocilla (Spanish chocolate spread brand). https://dechocolate.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/nocilla.j...
christkv··on I’ve joined Anthropic
Somebody got showered with stock options.
christkv··on Actually, democracy dies in H.R.
What is your point that I should accept my freedoms being curtailed and the gradual loss of a fair judicial system because you feel the us is worse?
christkv··on Actually, democracy dies in H.R.
Here is the problem. The "liberal" parties in Europe are pursuing exactly this policy of H.R Enshittification for the entire public sphere. More surveillance, more regulation, more state over-reach, less political freedoms and less free press. I don't see the difference between what's happening in the US and the supposedly good guys that rule me. It feels like they want to return to serfdom where your entire life is dependent on the lords (state) blessing.
christkv··on Where Are the Vibecoded Photoshops?
It's fascinating to be down voted for this lol
