Revealing it doesn't make you a fraud. That was already the truth.

Revealing it makes you known as a fraud.

  A fully open-source humanoid arm for physical 
  AI research and deployment in contact-rich 
  environments.

When will someone release this but for deployment in target-rich environments?

But what if I've done nothing illegal and they only think I have?

I think Anthropic told them being a plumber is a great option.

break out the ouija board

It's called choice. Maybe a dumb choice, but a choice!

The last thing I'd want replicated in the US is UK governance.

The people running Flock are simply bad people with the completely wrong temperament.

We shouldn't have these cameras at all but even if we were forced to have them the people running Flock are the last people who should be in control of them.

The way they act on social media and in interviews they just come off (and surely are) fragile ego children.

Their right to a business model doesn't outweigh the right of the public to not be harmed.

You know with all this AGI swirling around nowadays that is stronger than nation state hackers you think one of these companies would demonstrate just how capable they are by defending public infrastructure.

Unless...

Maybe in 6 months.

thanks! was just wondering. maybe some issue with the implementation of manual movement of posts.

Good question. I'm intentionally leaving it vague to see what people come up with.

Also, I've seen what you are describing a few times. Usually happens in companies with certain financial incentives to hide "problems"

the infinite scroll loop is cool but a bit nauseating lol

I have a family member who has been a butcher for nearly 40 years.. if you'd want some tips on this to try it again I'm sure he'd be willing to tell you how to go about it properly.

Definitely has always been some absurdity and I think there always will be. I think it only varies in the degree!

You're simply wrong. I say this as a computer scientist who ended up studying and working in bioinformatics for a period of time.

The reason I don't now? It's that people don't understand biology enough to understand the currently untapped potential and definitely not the advances that have happened. So they allocate money to yet another todo app, food delivery app, crypto wallet, or yet another finetune of a model to talk like a caveman.

I have also developed a similar system not focused on the exploratory refinement of prompt(s). But more focused on feedback loops cybernetic style, so focused on the maintaining of stability of the prompt outputs by a growing library of deterministic checks and autofixes. Anything that is a "problem" which isn't covered by that library is surfaced to the human driving the process.

I'm sure people will take this the wrong way, but a lot of the people who are on HN and who orbit technology circles in SF are really just not actually intellectually curious people.

They might like to think they are, they might try to pretend they are, but when pushed they're simply not.

Look at all of the groupthink that is perpetuated nonstop while they also proclaim they're creating, investing in, etc. so many unique ideas. Yet year after year it's the same thing in a different color.

What they actually are is interested in money and prestige. So give it a little time and they'll learn enough about biology to try and get some validation from their peers with comments. If money actually pours into bio that is.

  a scientific engine for prediction, design, and discovery that can map proteins across the tree of life, predict their structures, and design new protein binders that function in laboratory experiments. 

So, my issue with this is just like in a lot of the other areas of bio we're not able to explore outside the semantics of what is "known." Even a simpler task of just doing proper assembly is plagued by this. De Novo assembly of an alien/novel organism mixed with samples from other alien organisms would be impossible with what we can do today. Even with things that we're familiar we struggle with metagenomic assembly.

Maybe not between continents but we had meaningful live video chat in 1968

> but I think we still have it a whole lot better than a century ago (by and large).

Worse, they won't even give you the dignity of a claim to contribution to society. Then the lack of contribution is weaponized against you.

> It sounds like the public is only booing. Barely anything of note yet.

I think this is being misunderstood. I read it as a final bit of civility. It's a warning.

When local governments are captured by corporate interests this isn't the argument you think it is.

You're the one who inserted yourself in the discussion when I clarified my question. I wasn't dragging the discussion away from your preferred path any more than others were dragging it away from mine.

If you don't want to engage in political arguments then don't involve yourself in a subthread that wasn't even flagged.

In either case i'll leave and let you keep your echo chamber.

Right so then that answers my question. Violence is okay as long as it is directed outwards and said to be defensive, thank you for answering.

I'll remember this when my country of which i'm a citizen uses these same defensive weapons to secure any mineral wealth in Australia.

So if it's not guillotines and instead massed autonomous attack drones that would be an acceptable way to discuss violence?

Just want to make sure I understand you fully.

And when these things aren't possible?

Unfortunately, in 2026 even shoe companies are "AI companies"

Why not "2 Indian born people, 1 German born person, 1 Canadian born person, 1 Polish born person, 1 Ukrainian born person, and 2 US born people?"

Just so people know since the user above wanted to edit their comment away to hide how they really see things. It was this:

"They also pay the social security and Medicare taxes so listless rednecks can collect SSDI for being unable to work."
