Global warming causing war between nuclear armed opponents. Migration flows and competition over ever shrinking resources.

It's silly to treat these things as separate categories as if only one will happen at a time. These issues are happening, and are going to happen all at once. That is the fundamental challenge. AI plays into that because it can make wars and nuclear exchanges so much more effective.

If an AI tells the President the USA can survive China's nuclear barrage mostly unschathed, perhaps he'll press the button...

Why did the people die of famine, papa?

They didn't ideate food, dear.

--- Very unsatisifying indeed. I've always thought of it as the human penchant for escapism. In casu trying to interpret the world so that we control it. Which brings us back to Freud and the human condition: We are born trying to control things around us, fighting against our limits and learning to live with them.

Like 8 years ago I encountered this package, I recall reading that it was designed by someone who programmed components for the Space Shuttles.

I was very impressed.

Mistral doesn't have caching on batches. For me that meant they are 10x more expensive than Google.

I think its dumb.

Their support is hidden away in a chat bubble at the bottom. But they do respond promptly.

Its decent, but after switching to Google i wouldn't go back

A legal professional can be personally liable for not finding the most recent case-law.

The knowledge cut off gap means the models sometimes don't know about the most recent case-law, in a given situation.

I've seent his happen multiple times now. Accountants and legal professionals advising clients based on outdated information assembled through chat-gtp, claude and copilot.

Professionals drafting letters and missing recent case-law which handles their exact case. It's unreliable.So it can save you some work; but it can't save you all of the work. And in some cases its mistakes really force you to redo all the work, and more, to be thorough and have confidence in the result.

Its frankly shocking just how many people here aren't Christian (or don't understand love thy neighbor) and are on the evil spectrum of DnD, and bragging about it.

In before the dinosaurs arrive to complain about the challenges of moving to IPv6 and why NAT and IPv4 are better. ;)

The post now says they changed it due to feedback from Hacker news. All good.

The bottom part of the article mentions they use .backup - did they add that later or did you miss it?

The difference is you have to sue for e.g. negligence if a term is reasonable but not implied in the contract.

In civil law you can sue with an action under contract enforcement, which carries a lighter burden of proof

In most European countries, UK excluded, the law of contracts doesn't work this way.

Reasonableness and good faith are implied in contracts. If a clause kills the essence of a contract maliciously, the court will not enforce it.

Good idea, Netherlands should follow suit.

The fed is being dismantled in front of our eyes.

Militia's shoot US citizens for documenting their illegal behavior.

Insane

Enshittification, the sequel.

I think this nuance is one of the 1000 pieces that you could say are nuances if you look at them individually.

But, integrally the whole package is just wishful thinking.

I mean, maybe it was elastic for imports from Heard and McDonald Islands. Penguins don't care about margins after all.

And with a few years of 10% inflation on the value of money etc... that 600 at x=30 was a bad deal
