>Therefore, if you are OpenAI, Anthropic, or another AI vendor, you have two choices. Your first is to spend enormous amounts of money to stay ahead of the market. This seems very risky though

Regarding point 6, Amazon invested heavily in building data centers across the US to enhance customer service and maintain a competitive edge. it was risky.

This strategic move resulted in a significant surplus of computing power, which Amazon successfully monetized. In fact, it became the company's largest profit generator.

After all, startups and businesses is all about taking risk, ain't it?

The headline focuses on a difficult number but the article pointed out 63 effective policies that government can focus on. Unfortunately, these seem to be the tougher policies like carbon tax which people aren't fans of... But it makes sense, you pollute you should pay for the cleanup.
I guess playing this on the Mega Drive/Genesis I already knew I was being short changed. Also to have that much storage back then would have been life changing. I remember having a 120MB HDD in 1991 (?) and it felt like you would never run out of space. That was until you had both Doom and Doom 2 on it a few years later and combined took up about 30% of total storage.

The Democratic Party has some warts, this is for sure, and they have a lot they could be doing to improve participation and input from the rank-and-file. However, attempting to subvert an election by any means possible is not yet one of those warts. This is emphatically not a case where "both sides suck equally."

I'm from the Internet :-)

I think the problem is that there is a huge number of people now whose only contact with the Internet has been social media. For them, that is where the Internet begins and where it ends. They'll use Reddit and not call it a "website" but an "app," because they have "installed" Reddit on their smartphones.

It doesn't help that most online forums have become subreddits, and that Google will show Reddit results over random forums. It makes sense because, understandably, Reddit can be assumed to be always safe, while a random forum might not be, but in the long run it it just gives Reddit an unfair advantage over smaller forums that could just as safe if not better than their subreddit equivalent, killing those forums in the process.

Now things are getting even worse as subreddits become Discord channels. That's why I root for things like Neocities and Tumblr to succeed.

Trying to figure out is there a way for specialized data generate / preperation for agents within an organization.

Most of the startups are unable to document things properly because of the nature of business and speed. But everything is available in conversations over emails / slack and calls.

Can we prepare a brain like graph which is context aware and understands the business and product?

Thoughts?
Pretty much. The only pipes in the arctic tundra are oil pipes actively trying to stop this freezing process.
Using a 4G enabled phone we've had messages at the start of calls stating service will be cut off with the 3G network but we've ignored it as a bug.

Didn't realise this was the case.
Climate policy fails because the proposals are eye-wateringly expensive, amounting to trillions of dollars annually. In contrast, the CFC protocols and treaties worked splendidly because they were cheap, costing only billions of dollars to switch to chemicals which didn’t interact with ozone.

Changing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is not the only way to change the climate, and is unlikely to be the cheapest way to change the climate. But acknowledging that would require having a diplomatic/societal technology to determine what the optimal climate should be.
Cambride Dictionary explicitly includes books in its definition "involving or relating to a connection between a person and someone they do not know personally, for example a famous person or a character in a book: "

Maybe I should have specified that I meant the characters in a book, I thought that would be clear from the context.
Gilbert Strang would do a version of this too: appearing to work through problems on the fly and asking the audience for help, when of course he had come up with the problems himself and made them readily solvable to illustrate the concept he was teaching.

You can see instances of this in his last lecture in 2023.

If any of this is true why is it so surprising that wpe was cut off?

> WP Engine wants to control your WordPress experience, they need to run their own user login system, update servers, plugin directory, theme directory, pattern directory, block directory, translations, photo directory, job board, meetups, conferences, bug tracker, forums, Slack, Ping-o-matic, and showcase. Their servers can no longer access our servers for free.
The reason WordPress sites don’t get hacked as much anymore is we work with hosts to block vulnerabilities at the network layer, WP Engine will need to replicate that security research on their own.
Why should WordPress.org provide these services to WP Engine for free, given their attacks on us?

Fingernails on man's hand. Woman's teeth, perhaps (or is she just British?). Cars in background. Overhead wires (some seem not to connect to anything). The incogruous standalone green light without any others (red, yellow) evident.

But you've definitely got to look closely.
It's truly abundance when there's so much that you don't have to ever think about running out, probably so much that it even overwhelms those mentioned in the other comments who would otherwise try to harvest as many as they could.
Great article.

It reminds me of another anecdote, regarding a university professor who told his students that he would deliberately include one falsehood in each lecture, and the students were charged with listening carefully and identifying the 'mistake' in each class.

For the very last class in the course, the professor trolled his students by not including any mistake.

When there are cold years we are told this is short term weather and not long term climate. But every warm year and storm is evidence of long term change.
I hate that this comment is at the top of the page - that may be what you think but even if those exact sites, the chans, are the places a young person is spending their time that doesn't mean it's a problem necessarily.

I'm an adult and I spend about 80% of my time in front of screen and so do all of you.

I'm reminded of a Bible verse something about a log in your eye. That's what this is.

I don't know about that or what the circumstances were, I was just responding to the claim that the trademark hadn't been enforced in the past; the video seems explicit on that point.
Having sat through this, the main thing that irked me was Matt's lack of empathy towards impacted users.

Every time Theo tried to talk about the negative community impact or the perceived stability of the platform as a whole, Matt forcefully steered the conversation back towards criticising WP Engine.

Matt seems more concerned with retribution towards WP Engine than doing what's right for the WHOLE userbase. It almost doesn't matter how right or wrong he is in his arguments against WP Engine, what worries me is that he is being vindictive in a way that undermines everything he's built.

Public failed policies prevent or deter future failed policies. You must hope for failed policies to get to NaN% policies.
I compare this project to FastHTML for two reasons:
1. They both invented a DSL to write HTML in a functional way.
2. They both integrate with HTMX to provide interactivity.

This is not a criticism or a metaphor, just an observation of their technical similarities. May I ask if there are any aspects I might be unaware of that make you feel this comparison is inappropriate?

I am an ML researcher, I don't think LLMs can reason, but similar to you I'm annoyed by people who say ML systems "will never" reason. This is a strong claim that needs be substantiated too! Just as the strong claim of LLMs reasoning needs strong evidence (which I've yet to see). It's subtle, but that matters and subtle things is why expertise is often required for many things. We don't have a proof of universal approximation in a meaningful sense with transformers (yes, I'm aware of that paper).

Fwiw, I'm never frustrated by people having opinions. We're human, we all do. But I'm deeply frustrated with how common it is to watch people with no expertise argue with those that do. It's one thing for LeCun to argue with Hinton, but it's another when Musk or some random anime profile picture person does. And it's weird that people take strong sides on discussions happening in the open. Opinions, totally fine. So are discussions. But it's when people assert correctness that it turns to look religious. And there's many that over inflate the knowledge that they have.

So what I'm saying is please keep this attitude. Skepticism and pushback are not problematic, they are tools that can be valuable to learn. The things you're skeptical about are good to be skeptical about. As much as I hate the AGI hype I'm also upset by the over correction many of my peers take. Neither is scientific.
> We find that
climate models published over the past five decades were generally quite accurate in predicting global
warming in the years after publication, particularly when accounting for differences between modeled and
actual changes in atmospheric CO 2 and other climate drivers.

That seems understandable, since (according to this video) WPE has apparently been on notice about this for a very long time and has been playing a game of chicken with WordPress.
> Some providers have the splitters placed close to the customers

In the PON networks I've noticed, they tend to have a splitter per (serviced) pole, usually with about 4 ports. What they do in their cabinets, I don't know. If it's all undergrounded, I can't see that either. I'd guess they can swap in an 8 port splitter on a pole if needed as well.

And my observed pole density seems to naturally be increased in areas of denser housing. When I lived on a postage stamp lot, we had poles every two houses or so; my parents live in suburbia with bigger lots, but poles were still about every other house. Now that I'm semi-rural, poles seem to be farther apart, but also not all poles host service connections.
Psychotherapy does in fact help with schizophrenia. It's been a while since I was steeped in reading sources that backs this up, but one thing I came across was the notion that therapy alone is actually more effective than antipsychotics alone for certain symptoms. (If memory serves, therapy is better than drugs for persistent delusions.)

However, I think the best treatment involves both.

Or you're using a log scale because your effects span many orders of magnitude, or whatever. The specifics are not particularly central to my point beyond that it isn't too hard to wrangle up some scenario where the equation says something completely different.
> but "reasonable care" and "unreasonable risk" are not problematic.

Still strongly disagree, at least when it comes to AI legislation. Yes, I fully realize that there are "reasonableness" standards in lots of places of US jurisprudence, but when it comes to AI, given how new the tech is and how, perhaps more than any other recent technology, it is largely a "black box", meaning we don't really know how it works and we aren't really sure what its capabilities will ultimately be, I don't think anybody really knows what "reasonableness" means in this context.
And with the worsening weather events (Hurricane Helene ripped through the Florida Keys and other areas in its path), we are seeing the consequences of our collective inaction.
Aw fuck. well at least I made a bunch of money I guess

> Read this BYTE article from two years after the TRS-80's release <https://archive.org/stream/byte-magazine-1979-08/1979_08_BYT...>, which a) discusses how to implement machine language graphics and b) complains about the complete lack of Tandy documentation that motivated the author to write the article in the first place.

Looking at archive.org, it appears that Tandy/Radio Shack published extensive user-facing technical documentation (not just the service manuals) from 1978 onward that not only included information on the character set, memory map, assembly language programming, etc. but also full schematics for the system. In addition to the Z-80 machine language monitor described in the article, they shipped a full editor-assembler in 1978. The Z-80 (perhaps not as popular as the 6502 is on HN but it appears from time to time) was itself well documented (and also ran 8080 code.) Documentation notwithstanding, it does seem like Tandy didn't understand how important third party software was becoming and mistakenly viewed it as competition.

But that LISP-focused issue of BYTE from 1979 is still phenomenal. I wish we had computer magazines like that now that covered such a wide range of interesting things. At least we have the MagPi which tries to do that a bit for the Raspberry Pi platform.

I also love the Apple ad copy on page 17:

"Apple's the one you can program yourself. So there's no limit to the things you can do."

Technically that's still sort of true (Swift Playgrounds, for example, or just hacking javascript in the browser), but in the "there's [already] an app for that [would you like to buy it?]" era, programming the machine yourself seems like an afterthought.
I think California might have a better run government if it had an electable conservative party. The Republican Party is not that, being tied to the national Trump-Vance-Orbán axis. A center-right party could hold Democratic officers accountable but it’s not being offered and moderates gravitate to the electable Dem side. An independent California would largely fix that.

As a lifelong California Democrat, I realize that my party does not have all the answers. But the conservatives have all gone AWOL or gone batshit so we’re doing the best we can without the other half of the dialectic.
One somewhat obsessive customer here: I pay for and use Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and one or two others.

The UX differences among the models are indeed becoming clearer and more important. Claude’s Artifacts and Projects are really handy as is ChatGPT’s Advanced Voice mode. Perplexity is great when I need a summary of recent events. Google isn’t charging for it yet, but NotebookLM is very useful in its own way as well.

When I test the underlying models directly, it’s hard for me to be sure which is better for my purposes. But those add-on features make a clear differentiation between the providers, and I can easily see consumers choosing one or another based on them.

I haven’t been following recent developments in the companies’ APIs, but I imagine that they are trying to differentiate themselves there as well.
It’s actually older than that. I remember playing that on a VMS system in the early 80s; I believe the one I watched was on the DECUS games tape.
I've looked before for good online communities but never found one, I'd be interested if anyone has a source. The best people work for hedge funds so wont disclose anything and the individuals out there mostly are clueless or lucky, I suspect its too hard to find an edge without the resources of a large firm.
Except that copyright law doesn’t work that way.
