The shower head design is a crime against humanity for the cost of that machine.

Anthropic has had this happen at least once.

They didn't even realize it happened until openAI captured headlines and they started looking more carefully at past history.

None of the frontier labs are behaving responsibly when it comes to this stuff. OpenAI seems to have it happen more often, but this is one of those situations where 1 time is too many.

The difference is that with llms you have multiple levels of nondeterminism compounding each other

This has been common place for at least 20 years at this point.

We did it as my very first startup and we were stupid children back then.

Kind of telling that OpenAI didn’t.

> people have to have a chance to leave.

They did give people that chance.. That's kind of what the entire article is about. They literally did leave.

> One should first ask permission, and, if we are in a good mood, we might "let them" pursue their happiness.

yes... this is called the law...

Lots of peoples "pursuit of happiness" is hindered by the law because we've deemed it not good for society.

There's also the fact that alphabet should have been broken up into about a dozen companies over a decade ago

Larry would still be rich as heck, but probably... less rich..

> Do you really believe that landlords will subsidize tenants for a long time?

This literally happens all the time in California.

You buy a house in CA. You move somewhere else. You hold on to the house because your property taxes are fixed and housing prices grow like crazy here. Maybe your kids will want it. Maybe you'll want to move back..

You can't charge enough rent to cover the mortgage and taxes os you end up taking a loss monthly.

> Except, of course, no one has actually been robbed, the culture has not been stolen - it's still there - nor are the people involved selling it back in any form. This rhetoric sounds impressive, but really looks more like "piracy is theft" line from early 2000s, similarly flawed in basic premise.

This logic only works if you believe that IP has no value. Which is, of course, utter nonsense.

Microsoft doesn't believe this. Nor do any of the AI labs. Otherwise, they wouldn't have needed to scrape the data in the first place as it had no value. All of their software (and other products) would be developed in the open as there's no point in protecting the IP.

They work very hard to protect their own IP so they obviously believe that IP is worth protecting.

You don't and that's why everyone gets so angry and annoyed when people try to force precise definitions.

There's no team of lawyers verifying the provenance of all code/projects submitted to codeberg. THe policy is just something they can point to as a general guidelines of what kind of shit they want to support.

Everyone knows exactly what kind of projects they're talking about. The people trying to nitpick definitions are those annoying ass people at the board game night that spend half the time combing through the rule book trying to figure out why whatever they didn't like was against the rules.

They are quite good and typically better built (steel instead of plastic in lots of key places)

But they do not work as well out of the box. They require a lot more tuning and calibration. They also lack some quality of life features. For example, changing a nozzle on a bambu printer is a 15 second job. You just pop off the cover, hit the filament cutter, and the nozzle is magnetic. Changing it on a prusa core one is a few minutes and requires tools.

And on top of that, the prusa will cost considerably more and take longer to ship

Hardware resources are also allocated to AI uses so you can't scale out that way anymore.

The change history on this repository is fascinating

Who wouldn’t want their kid to be an astronaut

A bubble doesn’t mean a technology is useless. It just means it’s overvalued

In the last 30 years, we’ve had multiple bubbles in the tech industry. Every one of them was backed by real stuff that we still use today. They were still bubbles and a ton of people were hurt when they popped.

Sure. But then you need a thermometer.

The funny part is steak is one of the easiest foods to cook without a thermometer

You don’t have to worry about undercooking like you do with most other meats and most steak cuts will be delicious anywhere from 11-130 (if you cook a filet to 130, it won’t be the best but it’ll still be good) and some can go even higher

It’s not like poultry where the range where it’s “good” is very small. A 170 chicken breast is almost inedible and 160 is not safe…

Missile defense systems are unnecessary because they could just use tanks

Anti-tank measures are unnecessary because they can just use missiles

The age thing is because of laws mandating it

The point isn’t to hide yourself from the destination.

It’s to hide along the journey there.

It’s also sacrificing your career.

Professional networks are a massive important part of growing/building a career. This is especially true in an environment where there are mass layoffs constantly.

Building personal and trusting relationships is a huge part of developing that network.

This doesn’t mean you should turn every coworker into your therapist, but the other extreme is also bad for both your career and your person.

lsp integration isn't for checks like that.

It's for using lsp to do things like symbol renames. It's cheaper to call an LSP server to do those kind of simple refactors than to spend tokens on the model doing it.

It can also use LSP to build context without having to grep around a ton. You don't have to grep and hten pull lines and make guesses for a function. You just ask the LSP for it.

How helpful all that is is heavily dependent on the quality of the language server so usefulness is varies wildly between languages

I use a forked version of the pi-lsp. It works pretty well out of the box, but I just tend to fork extensions by default and then hack them up how i see fit.

I also found the compromise bit of the article strange

The minimally compatible is what existed before. The Snowden leaks showed that the Government, and not just the US government, would abuse the shit out of that for mass surveillance.

So now privacy advocates no longer trust that such a compromise can exist

It’s strange that the author both recognizes that the Government broke the social contract and then says privacy advocates should just keep trusting them in the same article

The solution to the complexity of any queuing system is to add another queue

This isn’t the first time she’s done it.

She spent 41 days making the same trip with 2 other people

That’s crazy.

The even crazier thing to me was she apparently did it before with 2 other people which took just under 41 days.

It’s kind of mind boggling that she would do this shit twice and that it only took her two extra days solo

Network byte order has nothing to do with the kernel and you have to care about it

It’s a standard because neither side of the connection knows the endianness of the other side so there must be a standard. That standard is big endian regardless of your architecture or kernel or anything else

So any serialization intended go over the network should be big endian

Jj is weird. In general it’s a better ui and model than git, but there’s a few common operations that are just dumb.

It also recreates a lot of the stupidity of mercurial (which makes sense)

The fact that everyone needs the same stupid “tug” alias because jj wants to use “bookmarks” instead of just named branches is just classic silly shit.

We’ve had named branches for 40 years. Everyone who has vcs experience knows what it is. We don’t need bookmarks. Just stop. Everyone who used mercurial used plugins to turn them into basically branches and same thing with jj.

Modern cpp is a bit of an oxymoron
