Hmmm, I was wondering who were the "volunteers or people paid to do fundamental research" (in their project docs), it turned out to be new grads LOL.

But I wouldn't blame Torrent or IPFS, these project maybe less shiny, but they actually work, so :)

Yes, I found these agents to be better at producing acceptable Rust than at producing acceptable Python code.

In addition to the Rust compiler, you can also tell them to make clippy happy. Both in normal mode or if you are feeling nitpicky, you can also tell them to make clippy::pedantic happy.

Is it more powerful than Apple silicon, or why would anyone buy this? Just for Linux?

Oh, it's System76, that's why. Open hardware. Makes sense.

oh boy, maybe geometry intuitions and spatial reasoning is what's really needed.

The best answer I’ve come to thus far is the model we (estuary.dev) are building out now: offering mcp.estuary.dev with tools for creating a sandbox with our CLI pre-installed, a tool for requesting that a tightly scoped access token be injected into a named sandbox file (this is the approval gate), and a tool for executing arbitrary commands in the sandbox (presumably our flowctl CLI, but let the model rip).

The intent is that anybody can drive it from Claude/ChatGPT/Pi on their phone after MCP sign-in (oauth), the model has full computer use capability, but we can also leverage it to build guided agent workflows in our own dashboard.

What is this slop?

> a musician could compose melody, harmony, and lyrics and generate many performances of the same song until they get one they like

Can't relate to this. Art doesn't come out as a left-brained problem solving exercise or identifying the right product for a market. It's about expression. You do it when you're feeling things.

Misuse of AI, according to Anthropic, is when you try and use it do AI research because that would affect their business model if you're successful.

I’d like to preface my message. I may not write as eloquently as the rest of you. From what I’ve seen, I don’t come close to many of those who are active here.

I am the son of a father who was in the Army around 2000-2004. From my time spent being near those who served in the Armed Forces, I have been given a unique opportunity. I have spoken to those who many of you may demonize.

They are not an evil conglomerate. The individuals that enlist are not warmongers with an over inflated ego or self worth (for the most part). People enlist for many reasons. Most of which is to gain skills for a better life. The over rampant voice of the ignorant claims these people are, by nature, called for the sole purpose of a Machiavellian dream.

Their lives are not easy. They are constantly sleep deprived and over worked. They are just like you and me and have a limit to their patience. A letter from a stranger may be the single thing holding them together as they brave a harsh world.

How can you hate what you truly don’t know.

They didn't have much runway left at 00:15 and were far slower than 158 at that point. They came in far too fast, descending too rapidly; first touch was >50% down the runway, and they didn't get the left gear down, so the spoilers and brakes didn't apply until even later.

It's being handed an infinite slop machine, drowning out genuinely good content and making it harder than ever to discover.

The vocals in the few songs I listened to are so very clearly AI. I find Suno's much more credible in many genres.

If anyone has tried Suno's Studio 2, I would love to hear your take on it. At $24-30/month, it's approaching Ableton Live 12 Suite rent-to-own territory, without the "own" part.

what's your point?

Well, hm, for the best of the world you may have a point.. :)

Me three

Doesn't seem especially relevant for LLMs. Especially not for training, but even for inference.

I do not support active military personnel.

New car or a Thelio. Tough decision.

i think the hedge fund wasn't really successful. They are venture / govt. funded just like the americans.

The application delivery thing was done as far back as Netscape threatening to relegate Windows to "a poorly debugged set of device drivers" so Web-whatever is simply another step in that direction. Like I said, if you purists want just document delivery, you can use links or w3m or maybe Gemini.

If these were mere ideas we wouldn't have a problem. On a given day anyone can come up with worse ideas.

What makes us separate from animals and thrive as a civilization is that majority of us do not act on our intrusive ideas without consequences.

Thiel is an exception because he is acting on thsea ideas, causing harm to real innocent people, without any regard for consequences.

What details of the criticism? The comment I replied to had nothing to rebuttal, it was communicating a general mood with zero supporting evidence.

They’re talking about creative expression, not jobs

Highly likely, your trust is just based on your feelings, and they don't do much for the product quality.

Nope. AI safety efforts is part of their attempts at regulatory capture.

The go-around decision was far too late. The decision to cancel the go-around was correct (conditional on the preceding series of terrible decisions).

If your goal is pure GPU compute, you should have got a 5090. It can bench comparable to the RTX 6000 Pro cards and is near guaranteed to outperform M5 Ultra.

This is a case where the supply was about to be gone and Google provided funds to keep it operating (the original nuclear reactor began operation in 1977 and it now needed EUR 700M to extend the service life). And one can probably guess that this supply just wasn’t cost competitive in the first place, but Google increased the demand so much that it now becomes cost competitive.

That is insane to me, as someone who suffers from chronic headaches every single day.

If only LLMs had been invented at the beginning of your career, you would have been right all along!
