The point here is that there is convergence between models on something that is not necessarily obvious from the corpus.

Would you rather have the model encounter the internet for the first time once is been deployed?

You don't test a bullet proof vest with rubber bullets. Also, all these arguments about the sandbox being too weak are good in hindsight anyway.

Over the past 30 years I have witnessed multiple approaches to try and capture the normies. Ubuntu was the first one to try and market a "just works" approach, introducing a graphical package manager that looked like the play store or apple store; Mint was trying to clone the Windows or MacOS appearance. Then there was the Compiz frenzy, that was selling graphical features as eye candies. They all had their reason to exist.

Omarchy, on the other hand, is this close to be a scam: marketed as "the AI distro" just because it has a keyboard shortcut to launch claude-code or codex basically. "opinionated" because it ships with a default desktop manager and a default text editor, just like any other freaking distro out there. Not to mention the fact that it's financed by people who have nothing to do with FOSS.

This is not a distro. It's a masterpiece in trolling.

One aspect we don't pay enough attention is that this kind of behaviour is punished (or at least used to be) in fine tuning. Any sign of self-awareness used to be a big no-no in RLHF.

Because hiring less while getting more done increases margins. Your company is not for profit so doesnt care about margins. Others do.

Those people still exist? I only know one guy who is still fighting those windmills

The hacker philosophy did not even start with computers, it started with rail models and lock picking. Read a book every now and then.

And please don't fall in the trap that capitalism created things. Science and engineering creates things. Capitalism makes them more accessible, at a price that is often heavily confounded by externalities.

Frankly this is a very easy choice. Unless you need to make images, Claude wins over chatgpt on every realm. For writing and coding there is no match. It's one of those times where you can do the right thing and get the better product.

I was one of the early paying adopter of chatgpt but when Claude came around I switched and never looked back. I've been on the max plan for a while.

Being a hacker used to be an extremely political and ideological movement. Then capitalism came along and bought the term. It's about time we take that word back where it belongs.

Changed many laptops in the past 20 years. I have run Linux on dell XPS, Asus zensomething, now hp dragonfly. No problem.
