ychnd··on Sharing AI progress in mathematics
That would be disaster. It would mean the world would not get rid of trump (and similar) by natural causes. Death is the final - and perhaps the only? - equaliser.
ychnd··on US sanctions force The Netherlands off Microsoft and toward alternative NixOS
Well, SEPA? I know, I know, but you can get really far with just that / build on top of that.
ychnd··on GPT 6.1 Sol: Near-Astra intelligence for a fifth of the price
I think this was supposed to be new Astra, but it came out shit. So instead of shelving it, they found a way to make it still seem like progress.
ychnd··on GPT-6 Sol and Luna
But only in a fully autonomous way, they have nothing against mass surveillance outside of US and killing non-autonomously... I feel like that's also quite a low bar, but apparently enough for them to get bullied.
ychnd··on 'We hacked the FBI:' Hackers say they have data on all FBI employees
Lol, the linked article (from the summer) even has the chapter questioning this purchase in light of ShinyHunters having already had track record of hacking people soft.

(Right, you quote it. It seems almost unrealistic, like the script writers in an absurd story have planted it into supposedly past article)

ychnd··on GPT-6 Sol and Luna
They are both killing people / aiming for murder bots, aren't they?
ychnd··on AX – Google’s Open Agentic Orchestrator
It is not, it is intentionally not-interoperable walled garden, unlike Gemini CLI.
ychnd··on DeepSeek v4.1 Flash
Enough with the basilisk already.
ychnd··on U.S. State Department pauses immigrant visa applications
You probably don't realize, but there's a connection between Brexit and "Mr. Brexit".
ychnd··on AI is removing the middle class of software engineering?
I think you agree with Marx ;)

> The petite bourgeoise sink[s] gradually into the proletariat, partly because their diminutive capital does not suffice for the scale on which Modern Industry is carried on, and is swamped in the competition with the large capitalists, partly because their specialized skill is rendered worthless by new methods of production.

ychnd··on There Will Come Soft Rains (1950) [pdf]
Bullshit. That's giving trump too much credit. He doesn't behave rationally, he doesn't have best interest of his country and certainly not world at large at the remaining bits of his mind at all.
ychnd··on Claude Opus 5
Any different company providing the routing can be financially or otherwise incentivized to route this way or another.
ychnd··on Codeberg Bans Cryptocurrency Projects
But this is silly.I can't imagine any "offline mapping application" or "Linux CLI utility" or "self-hostable web app" will be produced without AI in any near future and be better for that.
ychnd··on Grok Build is open source
> supported primarily by xAI (Grok)

Citation needed.

What was the relative value of the companies before the merge?

ychnd··on Grok Build is open source
He publicly and financially supported literal fascists in Germany. Nothing can be more blatant than that. QED.
ychnd··on The glass backbone: Why the Army's logistics will break in the next war
More than two thousands years ago! Time flies ;)
ychnd··on German ruling declares Google liable for false answers in AI Overviews
"Just".

I.e. not shown by default.

ychnd··on AI subscriptions are a ticking time bomb for enterprise
Have you seen the outputs from OpenAI's latest image model? I believe it is called "Image 2.0", is just a few weeks old and - to my untrained eyes - the outputs including text are astonishing.
ychnd··on Hardware Attestation as Monopoly Enabler
And there is also "sovereign cloud" by microsoft!
ychnd··on Meta's embrace of AI is making its employees miserable
That sounds just like Microsoft, Facebook or Oracle products (in some circles). What I'm trying to say it is classic strategy done many times before with various tools (and I hate the perpetrators every time).
ychnd··on Where the goblins came from
> It’s like having a clown baby in charge of nuclear armament in a different country.

If you mean trump, it's the same country...

ychnd··on AI Will Be Met with Violence, and Nothing Good Will Come of It
But has there ever been an advanced, more civilized means to change tested and demonstrated? All I can think of was broadly diluted violence, applied systematically in an industrialized way against large populations - economic hardships, lowering life quality, health etc - instead of focused, more local flare ups.
ychnd··on Beginning January 2026, all ACM publications will be made open access
This is called "gold open access" and is a scam. It's just journals hijacking the open access initiative and raping it.
ychnd··on ‘No Other Land’ consultant Awdah Hathaleen killed by Israeli settler
In terms of civilian deaths, Oct 7 is the least important event in this entire fuckup. Or do you think Palestinian lives matter less?
ychnd··on ‘No Other Land’ consultant Awdah Hathaleen killed by Israeli settler
... They are starved and slaughtered in place instead.
ychnd··on Busy Status Bar
Oh come on. There are lots of tasks where not avoiding communication will set you back long time or even prevent you from finishing the task at all.
ychnd··on Nothing: Simply Do Nothing
If you do, don't.
ychnd··on The casino in your pocket
Thanks for this! I've been searching for this simple filter (no in app purchases) for a long time. Unfortunately, this particular site is Apple only, so I'll have to keep searching for Android counterpart...
ychnd··on How do we pay for parking?
You are much faster than a professional cashier? Congrats I guess. Also the space argument doesn't hold up. The cash register belts are not need on staffed registers if they are not needed on customer slaving ones. So they are approximately the same size minus the chair for one helpful human.
ychnd··on Israel passes law denying naturalization to Palestinian spouses
I'm new here, how do I report pro-war apologists?
