That's it, I'm sure there were some paid distributed computing projects that you could earn money for, but nothing on the scale of bitcoin and co. Seti and Folding were for bragging rights, bitcoin was for money, and I'm 99% confident that the people already doing those were some of the first to switch their rigs to crypto and were some that actually made money off of mining.
This is a non profit dedicated to researching AI with the goal of making a safe AGI. That’s what the mission is. Sama starts trying to make it a business, restructures it to allow investors, of which MSFT is a 49% owner. He gets ousted and they tell Microsoft afterwards.

It’s questionable how much power Microsoft has as a shareholder. Obviously they have a staked interest in OpenAI. What is up in question is how much interest the new leaders have in Microsoft.

If I had a business relationship with OpenAI that didn’t align with their mission I would be very worried.

It's not hugely profitable, its simply a draw for foot traffic to sell more snacks, alcohol, and food. 7-11 and Wawa have been serving gas since as long as I can remember.

Gas stations make about 10 cents per gallon gross profit on the gas pumped. That's before capital equipment depreciation, equipment maintenance, facilities staff, cleaning, etc.

It's profitable, but it produces a minority of the business's profit. The bulk of the profit is from higher margin snacks, drinks, alcohol, cigarettes, lottery, etc.

> With cable you could sometimes get a clear spot in the scrambled channels.

I do remember that. By the time kids were old enough to bother with it, none of them were hurt by it.

> And I assume you were not a latchkey kid, alone for hours before an adult came home?

I actually was. That's how I know that older children don't need to have parents hovering over them 24/7. I didn't burn the house down, didn't join a street gang, didn't become an alcoholic, or host orgies. I was given education about dangers and how to avoid them and the freedom to develop a sense of responsibility. I didn't always listen to my parents, but I never did anything bad enough to matter either. A parent's job isn't to make it 100% impossible for kids to ever do anything, it's to prepare them to make smart choices even when you aren't around.

For smaller children (the kind you can't just leave in a house alone for hours) it's easy to keep devices where they can't get them or to temporarily disable a PC. If you leave the older kids alone, you'd just have to check up on the logs when you get back.

> And from a rich enough family that could afford a personal device for each kid?

Shared devices are even easier to monitor and control access to. A lot of families have a single shared computer in a public space (living room or den).

> Where do you even get a computer these days with zero internet access? What software will the kid use?

I'd probably give the kid one of my old ones with the NIC pulled or the port removed or epoxied, but honestly you probably don't have to go through the trouble for small kids. Disabling the interface in software is probably good enough.

As for what kind of software they could use: games/emulators, ms-paint/photoshop, office apps for writing/journals/notes/homework, an MP3 player, VLC for pre-selected/loaded movies, a comic viewer/ebook reader, AV recording software, LOGO or some other kid programing stuff, etc. A computer without internet access is still a pretty useful and entertaining device.

> Logging doesn't handle most of the issues mentioned in the article, like not wanting your 6 year old to see the "headlines of the day about how the world is on fire", or not wanting your kids to download something from the Microsoft Store.

I don't have any objection to kids seeing news, if they want to. I have an objection to news being forced on them so Bing gets disabled or (more likely) just don't use windows. Let's face it, windows is user-hostile. Even with windows is it actually impossible to disable the store or set windows to not allow random software to be installed without admin rights? For work I've got a windows machine I've set up with polices to block the store, but I assume there must be options for home users. More to the point, it's not the end of the world if the computer allows children to install something. It's my job to set boundaries and make sure the kid understands them. If I see that something got installed that shouldn't have been I can handle that by parenting the child not tweaking the OS.

In any case, given the thinness of Lightning, I still don't see how it would be impossibly ugly to have had such a connector at the top end of the mouse, turning it into a wired one during charge. The current Magic Mouse design is a compromised "plywood on the back of a chest of drawers" design.

I think "blaming" Sam is entirely correct.

Of course, not for the petty reasons that you list. Sama has comprehensively explained why the original OS model did not work, and so far the argument – it's very expensive – seems to align with a reality where every single semi-competitive available LLM (since they all pale in comparison to GPT-4 anyway) has been trained with a whole lot of corporate money. Meta side-chaining "open" models with their social media ad money is obviously not a comparative business, or any business. I get that the HN crowd + Elon are super salty about that, but it's just a bit silly.

No, Sam's failure as CEO is not having done what is necessary to align the right people in the company with the course he has decided on and losing control over that.
Musk appears to think Jews hate white people, or at least push an agenda to make them become hated. How, and why I don’t know but that’s the post he agrees with.

He also simultaneously says the Jews should not be killed off.

It’s not really a whole lot of nuance, but I suppose it must be said that Musk is playing the both the victim and the pure white knight here. He wants to look sympathetic and yet strong.

Also: we don’t even need to spend money on building the housing. We need to spend money to undo the thicket of NIMBY laws that ban increased density in many forms; ban cheap single rooming houses or even the modern “apodment” equivalent because people found it disgustingly poor to live in tiny units; ban the existence of rehabs or homeless shelters or supported housing for the mentally ill in residential areas, or the existence of sex offenders in any housing, because nobody wants those people near them…

> Is there any functional difference between apache and MIT?

We only use FSL to Apache 2 so we would have been happy with just having this. However the issue of lack of GPL 2 compatibility of Apache 2 is known to us so having a GPL 2 compatible option with the MIT license we believe makes sense. In practical terms if you want to adopt FSL from scratch and you have no GPL 2 concerns, Apache 2 is most likely the better choice as it also carries a patent clause.

More seriously, only time will tell if today's event will have any significance. Even if OpenAI somehow goes bankrupt, given enough time, I doubt the history books will talk about its decline. Instead they would talk about its beginning, on how they were the first to introduce LLMs to the world, the catalyst of a new era.

We have to be careful when a powerful majority group member comes along to demonize a minority. Saying “they are evil, they hate us, and they want to destroy us” is the playbook of every polemic who wants to use minorities as easy excuses for the ills of the world.

When powerless minority’s to this to the majority, it’s also objectionable but it’s less immediately dangerous.
I’m not sure why it’s seen as ok to work 100 hours per week, or even glorified.

It's definitely not intentional that self hosted is hard to run, and it's also a concern for us internally. The hard truth is that the scale at which Sentry's largest SaaS installation operates we need to make decisions which are unfortunate for smaller setups. However we're very aware of this challenge. It does not just show up for self hosted, it also complicates the development environments etc. It's not something that is done to harm people who want to self host, it's the consequence of our struggler of balancing the scale we have.

On a personal level it's depressing when you work on something and put so much energy into it to see it not work out. When you're an adult you spend [way too much] time around the people at work so losing that is also like losing friends. They will be saying goodbye to many relationships I'm sure. Obviously OpenAI was well positioned and if they want to stay in AI they're going to have to redo work while the company you helped build it forges ahead. Personally, I'd be moving on.

Getting fired, 'made redundant', 'moved to consulting' is bad enough when it happens privately. But having everyone watch the fallout like an episode of Silicon Valley must really suck. Guess that's the trade-off for being in positions like that. People essentially cyber stalking you in a way.

A pretty large nit: "Twenty-one years later, SETI@home shut down, having found nothing. An incalculable amount of PC cycles and electricity wasted for nothing."

Negative results are still results. What SETI@Home showed was that after analysing all available data exhaustively that there was in fact no clear sign of alien intelligence to be found. That's a different state of knowledge than simply assuming the same result without examination of data.

It's a result that's disappointing to some, no doubt. It is still, however, a net increment in the amount of human knowledge.
