Second this! And if the papers are in "logical reading order", it would be very useful if this is stated on top!

Ultorg creator here. Ultorg is a GUI for relational databases that knows how to deal with joins and one-to-many relationships. In this demo, I use the new "Fill with AI" feature to generate appraisals for artwork objects in the National Gallery of Art.

The interesting part is in the handling of joins. We can show a list of artworks, and for each artwork, a list of provenance timeline entries, and related data from other tables, and then use all of this data as context for the appraisal task. The UI for this is intentionally minimal; the user enters only a few words for a prompt (Appraisal column: "an appraisal of the artwork, in US dollars, for insurance purposes". Rationale column: "rationale for the appraisal").

The retort is to the statement that the U.S. war in Iran is "pretty cheap compared to all the AI datacenters".

People are conflating destructive and productive activities. These are fundamentally different.

I pay $100/month for Claude Max and it's like having a (nearly) free, very competent employee. Value _way_ exceeds $100/months. But there's a datacenter that has to run that.

The data centers are being paid for by customers, who are receiving greater value from the products than they pay for them.

I'd also expect to see a lot more AI-generated PRs on open source projects.

(Or at least AI-assisted to the point where the author feels like they should mention it.)

I concur. This was my main experience with WSL1 vs. WSL2.

If I'm running Windows, it means that the files and projects that I care about are on the Windows file system. And they need to be there, because my IDE and other GUI apps needs files to be on a real file system to work optimally. (A network share to a WSL2 file system would not let the IDE watch for changes, for instance.)

WSL1 was a great way to get a UNIX-style command line, with git, bash, latex etc., for the Windows file system. WSL2 was just too slow for this purpose; commands like "git status" would take multiple seconds on a large codebase.

Now I switched back to MacOS, and the proper UNIX terminal is a great advantage.

One day, some bacteria is going to figure out how to digest plastic. Then it will take over the world.

Waving a flag is protected speech under the 1st amendment.

Perhaps a better source (but IANAL):

"Judges frequently invoke anti-redundancy principles in the interpretation of legal language, whether it appears in classic private-law documents such as contracts or classic public law-documents such as constitutions and statutes."
