lol. 16 years after the first protests started being coordinated over social media, Meta, the largest social media company in the world whose tech folks are probably paid in the millions at the highest level, still hasn't figured out a way to avoid trampling over legitimate dissent for purely 'innocent, technocratic reasons'?

I wonder if these free-speech absolutists will rail about this? Something tells me probably not.

They are different mediums. While the underlying story might be Tolkien's, every frame is an artistic choice and while LLMs can make a choice is many situations, they are unable to 1) keep it coherent b) make it meaningful because art, to me and most, in an outcome of human experiences and thought, which by definition an llm cannot do.

Iran was, as per the latest reports I've read, complying with terms and not enriching uranium to weapons-grade or close to weapons-grade. Are there credible reports suggesting otherwise?

"What's the point of having fuck you money if you never say fuck you."

They are all horrible. If there is ever a reckoning, I hope this entire class of spineless shits get destroyed.

"evolution (fit to environment) than engineering (fit to purpose)."

Oh, I absolutely love this lens.

It can be both, I think? Politicians/powerful people take advantage of divisions in society, but often those divisions do exist in a fully-fledged or nascent form for them to exploit.

Killing USAID.

I do it more or less this way - except I keep the root intact until the end. It keeps the onion structurally intact until I'm done with the dicing. At which point, the root takes a single chop to lop off, and then the whole thing scatters into tiny, mostly uniform dices. It's quite satisfying.

Google exposes their reasoning. You can use their new gemini python sdk to get thought traces.

> not that a single user uses a lot of energy for a simple chat.

This seems like a classic tragedy of the commons, no? An individual has a minor impact, but the rationale switching to LLM tools by the collective will likely have a massive impact.

That's ok. AI will kill those off soon enough, and like all winners, rewrite history enough so that that inconvenient theft never happened anyway. It's manifest destiny, or something.

I can't speak to Rust, Go or C, but for me LLMs have greatly accelerated the process of learning and building projects in Julia.
