Measuring value that way is precisely what “from a business perspective” means. Things can also be judged on artistic or technical merits, among many other perspectives.

There are downsides, it’s just that it’s the best move from a business perspective. That doesn’t make it the best move from any other angle.

Futures contracts were a mistake, god damn

Up until very recently I would have said definitely not, but we're talking about LLM scrapers, who knows how much they've got crammed into their context windows.

It’s not great, but you could add it to the body of a 429 response.

You mean plagiarized it?

Is this not belligerently ignoring the fact that this work is already done imperfectly? I can’t tell you how many serious errors I’ve caught in just a short time of automating the generation of complex spreadsheets from financial data. All of them had already been checked by multiple analysts, and all of them contained serious errors (in different places!)

She’s not doing either. In that same conversation, she goes on to talk about how we don’t live in that world and can’t return there, and what the implications should be for policy.

If I’m not mistaken, she goes on to say “but we don’t live in that world, and so we must…” and goes on to argue for policy that doesn’t neglect the poorest and least fortunate members of society.

I wonder if bundling it with ai is to deal with that pesky internal issue where engineers are always trying to turn off ads for their yt accounts

Sorry, but citation needed. Means testing might seem “obvious” from first principles, but from a policy point of view, it makes little to no sense.

The macroeconomic effects of welfare programs create a society that is better for everyone to live in. Reducing the issue to a matter of personal responsibility is a reframing that allows you to completely lose sight of the big picture, and create programs that are destined to fail by not reaching many of the people they need to.

I mean, that's a very corporate accounting way of looking at it. But countries are not corporations, or even banks, and the abstraction is so leaky it's pretty much never worth using.

Llama was kind of a forced hand though. Yknow, when the model was leaked?

Wordcels discover category theory lol
