Grammar Nazi here. The first sound in unicorn is a semivowel, not a vowel. You're welcome!

Water-wasting is not a red herring if you live in an area where droughts are an issue. It just isn't a problem everywhere universally.

I heard they do it in Spain, too. Around Easter in particular. Sometimes the chicks are even painted.

Right? What's wrong with steel implants?

Apparently, hyperspace isn't a given with DMT. I wonder what it is that grants entry... A very experienced friend of mine was just "told" it wasn't going to happen in something like a waiting room. I would love to find out myself but I am too anxious an individual to go beyond a light dose of mushrooms.

I've read part one of Material World a few weeks ago and the semiconductor bit was really mind-blowing.

You need something to vacuum seal the food. Is that included in the $30?

I don't think the comment above meant to say there's nothing better than Germany. Instead the claim was that 1) Germany's decline is not due to renewables and 2) despite the decline it's still a pretty good place to live.

If only they ate the thing that is the intuitive answer to your question!

It would be bad enough with all the burping and farting but at least we would not destroy the rain forest so we could produce more soy for fodder

Going vegetarian would only cut it if you stayed clear of dairy. Gram for gram it's better to eat chicken than cheese for the climate.

And where does the newborn go from here?

Good models can't fix bad incentives.

Don't blame it all on entrenchment and bureaucracy. Rather show me the engineers who want to become management.

I have thought of the same solution myself before and came to the conclusion that I, for one, wouldn't want to be leading anything even if I had some ideas on why the product sucked.

I might even find an upside in that if it wasn't for the fact that this stolen crowd sourced knowledge will be used to make some billionaires even richer.

Reminds me of the "good guys with guns" narrative tbh. Being able to document such transgressions is not enough of an argument to do a mass rollout of ad display technology IMHO.

People who forget to cancel are easy prey.

Cancelling then being charged anyway is something else. Something akin to being robbed IMHO.

Amazing stuff? You mean technical stuff right? Because politically, demographically and climate wise we're headed for disaster or at least dystopia.

I wished I could find all the science and technology as uplifting as my friends do.

Approaching the maintainers would be ideal but time-consuming. Disclosing it like this is neutral I guess. Better than selling it in the darknet.

I do wonder though: if you can tell the AI to search for vulns, can't you also tell it to contact the right maintainer for each one found?

The future is perpetually dealing with the fallout from all the vibe coding as the pool of people who'd have a shot at fixing it gets smaller and smaller. Shitty will be the new normal.

So... What's your point? Sounds like what you identify as key is not relevant to the remainder of your comment.

Big Vintage Energy

Uhm... the second sentence of the original comment does contain "x isn't Y, it's Z". You missed this... just like an LLM will miss things sometimes, making me wonder if you're one of them, too.

/s ... ?

For me this is very valuable. The results of personal "research projects" are in there. I use it for reference. Of course I could ask Claude to get me those answers but why waste the energy?

It's different because we are talking about a technology that we might lose control over at some point. Those drones in your example might make an entirely different choice than what you anticipated when you let them take off.

Democratic governments care about this to a degree but only autocratic ones get paranoid.

The deal was only possible because anthropic stayed by their convictions. OpenAI didn't have agency in that. You're making it sound like Altman orchestrated the whole thing.

No, we will exclude a few people because Germany doesn't have its shit together when it comes to digital stuff. Then hopefully people will complain and things will improve.

This is the way. It annoys me to no end when e.g. the German chancellor demands clearnames in social media. The real issue are bots and algorithmically enhanced reach. Proof of personhood in a privacy-preserving way is enough to fix this. But it should be mandatory for social media in the EU. You don't need to expose people to the doxxing mob to protect our democracy.

Tbh, when I read that "platforms face a choice between excluding lawful users and monitoring everyone." I don't have much understanding.

No gov. ID, no participation. It's not like you cannot go outside and talk to people anymore so let's not pretend that being on insta is some sort of universal human right and anybody barred from it is some sort of terrible tragedy.

Spec-driven looks very much like what the author describes. He may have some tweaks of his own but they could just as well be coded into the artifacts that something like OpenSpec produces.

Is it on GH?
