Yeah, I like the ratio framing. That does seem like the kind of experiment you'd want to run next.

The thing I'd be curious to separate out is ratio vs density. The fiction examples were positive, but a lot of the tokens are still spent on normal story work. The targeted examples put much more of the training signal on the AI being in the relevant situation and choosing against the bad option.

That makes me think the next thing to test is not just the positive/negative mix, but how much of the data is actually about the failure mode.

I think the paper cuts a bit against the "just write nicer AI stories" version of this.

They tried something close to that. Positive AI fiction and also a "virtuous character" setup. Those didn't seem to do nearly as well as the targeted examples.

What mattered, at least in this setup, was more specific. The model sees the actual failure-mode scenario, the bad action is available, and the example shows the AI choosing against it.

So this reads less like "nicer AI stories" to me, and more like inoculation.

Which benefits does EdgeDB have over Hasura which isn't built on top of PostgreSQL but as a layer that runs on top of it and exposes a GraphQL API along with access control, event triggers and other features?

I would love to see the code open sourced! (it's ok if you have edge cases pending as long as they have been documented or at least mentioned in a README). Managing and running migrations smoothly without downtime is a very common challenge that a lot of startups face and I think a lot of us have been reinventing the wheel over and over to handle this due to the lack of current offerings.

Lenovo Thinkpad 580, never been happier.

Highly unrelated (and lots of reasons missing): I was never a fan of Gnome and for years ended up "just going with LXDE instead" until I gave Budgie a try about 6 months ago. I have never been happier in my life.

The story in not over yet. He should sell the rights of his story for a movie and make the 1.2m back, only this time, the legit way.

But closeness makes it extremely difficult to find actual backdoors left on purpose. Open processors would be a first step in the right direction.

Very helpful. It definitely would be worth developing an addon that would apply these settings for you.

Thanks for not letting Thunderbird die. In my opinion it's still the best and most customizable opensource email client and there is just not a viable replacement.

Most of the open source email clients I have tested require you to run a local webserver and access the mail using a web browser with very limited features. All I want/need is a desktop app that can be customized to work similar to Gmail, pulls and deletes emails from remote SMTP/IMAP servers and allows me to create backups locally.

Thunderbird gives me that.

A realtime chat without auth but with private messages or multiple rooms. Basically the user will pick a nickname, click next and then be able to chat on a general or create/join a room.

A WebSockets / realtime / push/pull exercise would be a good addition.
