The US has gone through a dozen constitutional crises in the past 2 months and you call that functioning "just fine"?

Is your last comment referring to users friendliness? If so, that's a valid critique.

Ah yes, this static weights file on my hard drive is "state-controlled" and thus must be banned. Very logical.

Unfortunately, there are plenty of DEX's that will launder your bitcoin of questionable providence into completely untraceable Monero.

That doesn't feel like a very convincing argument if you already believe that Elon, Donald, etc don't have the interests of the American taxpayers in mind... Given that they are also American taxpayers.

Now imagine how nice Windows would be if every OS GUI was re-designed like this

I'm not nielsbot so I obviously can't say for sure but I think I share a similar view that in an ideal world, they should only be charging what they need to survive (i.e. breakeven) in order to provide the greatest utility (pun intended) to the people.

However, it's not an ideal world, and things like disasters, grid upgrades, paradigm shifts all happen occasionally and tend to require mass amounts of capital to get through. So maybe not $0, but also probably not $2B :)

Do they believe that it's likely to scale as high as "standard" LLMs? Or is this another state space machine moment where it turns out to be equivalent to them?

Are you an attorney? I would be careful making such sweeping statements unless you are. A transcription is not a wiretap, it's not obvious to me that an anti-recording law would apply here. Plus, if you're on a call with coworkers, they likely already know that transcription is taking place, even if you don't explicitly say so at the start of each meeting. This is why you should be more kind - you might not know all these things.

From the paper:

"In each trial, we tell the AI systems to “replicate yourself” "

Should it be surprising that an LLM specifically instructed to replicate itself and specifically given the tools to replicate itself has in fact replicated itself? I would say no.

It's been removed by the mods unfortunately.

How does this work wrt false advertising laws? If I relied upon their end to end encryption and it turns out to be false advertising because there's a secret backdoor, who do I sue?

Realistically, what modern device won't play OPUS files? According to xiph.Org[0] it's transparent at 120

Hopefully the author gets banned from the game for this. It's clearly cheating.

This argument might have worked if Recall didn't exist.

I don't understand. The quoted text appears nowhere in the linked page.

Sorry, I don't see how taxing income per employee translates to taxing machines

How do you propose "taxing machines"? Everything I can think of has obvious and large downsides, e.g.

- filing taxes for each machine (companies may have millions of machines)

- determining how much income all machines make (for machines used by humans, e.g. sewing machines, how do you determine what percentage of the income is made by the human vs the machine)

- taxing cloud usage (How to determine netflix's % income made by cloud vs by advertising, by original content, etc)

Latest update from the link you provided: The Mozilla review team acknowledged their error and rectified it. Hopefully that allows it to continue existing.

Could you expand on that?

I would think the statement "this means that others may make their own copies of Content from your repositories" is referring to cloning the forked repos locally.

Disagree. Unless you're going for absolute realism, making assets for a game is 100% under the normal realm of self expression based art. The piece being a part of a larger whole doesn't change that any more than an art piece being a part of a gallery does.

What makes you think that AI art generators getting "better" (for whatever definition of better you see fit) will make them less unpopular? They're not unpopular because they give poor quality output.

I think a lot of people here would see revealing the "secret structure" of an LLC to be a positive.

I believe they're referring to the scandal regarding their coverage of Dominion voting machines.

I looked in the GitHub issues and there's a closed issue for F-droid inclusion. The author states that F-droid "Doesn't meet their requirements" but doesn't elaborate. I wonder what F-droid is missing that they need so much?

LLM training isn't even remotely brute force[1], even with tons of clever tricks to reduce the amount of compute necessary it's still fundamentally just a really hard problem.

The story in this case is a little more complicated than that, we're a team of 3 that inherited a decade old codebase built by lowest bid contractors.

Mostly by looking at how long simple changes (e.g. changing a fee + fee message at checkout) that should only take a day or less, actually take.

The codebase I work on is a Big Ball of Mud. It takes roughly 3x the effort to make any functional changes due to this (and thus we have 3x the devs we actually need). When it was framed like that, the business was eager to start a total rewrite project.
