Fact checking, Community Notes, whatever you want to call it, is inherently political.
Facebook's approach to fact checking has always been cost-optimization.

It would have been a drag on profits to hire professionals to fact check and provide them enough time to do their job, at scale.

They quote numbers about how much they're spending as proof they're doing something, but that spend isn't normalized against the scale of their platform.

Because no-one, including you, is an expert on everything.

So there will be many topics for which you will not be able to make an informed judgement about the accuracy of the content. And on a social network centred around sharing it can be very easy for inaccuracies to spread.
I don't have a real critique because I don't have that many years in a codebase the size of OP (just 2). But I struggle with the advice to not try and make a clean section of the code base that doesn't depend on the rest of the application.

Isn't part of good engineering trying to reduce your dependencies, even on yourself? In a latter part of the post, OP says to be careful tweaking existing code, because it can have unforeseen consequences. Isn't this the problem that having deep vertical slices of functionality tries to solve? High cohesion in that related code is grouped together, and low coupling in that you can add new code to your feature or modify it without worrying about breaking everyone else's code.

Does this high cohesion and low coupling just not really work at the scale that OP is talking about?

The Danish government is and has been well under their 2% NATO commitment. I can see a case where in the face of the requirement being moved up from 2%, Denmark may need the money. Lets not forget about the 57K people in Greenland who would love some mailbox money for letting the US exploit their natural resources. The way I see this happening is that the people of Greenland are sold on the idea and the Danish govt. is in the awkward position of trying to stop them, and theres some leverage over them regarding their ability to fund their NATO commitment. Additionally I have a feeling someone is going to have to fund whatever becomes of the war in Ukraine because it seems to me the US is finished.

Your take is dead on but there is a case where we actually do get it done and its not as hard as its being made out to be.
I think GP's saying that it must be in your prompt, not in the weights.

Yeah I'm a millenial with older and younger friends. I found that around 35 +- 4 years you generally have people get more annoyed and flippant at change. I get it, at this age you're probably at the peak of both career and life responsibilities, and you want to focus your energy on your family/career/other loved ones, and the last thing you want to do is learn something new for doing what you've been doing for the last 18 years (chatting about something online.)

But it's been pretty fascinating watching the change as my older millenial/young GenX friends are getting into Back In My Day conversations while my GenZ friends talk about new fashions and music.
Ground loops comes from the ground mismatch between two electrically connected devices. When you use an optical link, you isolate those two devices since there is no common ground and the hum goes away. Same if connect a battery device to a grounded device.

I'd ask things like "which LLM are you using", and "what language or APIs are you asking it to write for".

For the standard answers of "GPT-4 or above", "claude sonnet or haiku", or models of similar power and well known languages like Python, Javascript, Java, or C and assuming no particularly niche or unheard of APIs or project contexts the failure rate of 4-5 line of code scripts in my experience is less than 1%.

In his latest blog post, titled “Reflections”, Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, wrote that they are now confident about their ability to build AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). That’s a pretty serious statement to make, and I don’t think Altman would make that jokingly.
However, something else captured my attention. In the same blog post, Altman also said that OpenAI believes that in 2025 we will probably see the first AI agents join the workforce. That’s huge, especially because it is timed to happen in 2025 and not some distant future date. It prompted me to resume my experimentation with AI agents. In this article I am going to share what I think and what I learned. I will present my experimentations using DSPy, LiteLLM, Nebius AI Studio, OpenAI’s Swarm, CrewAI, and LangGraph.

At this point even the fine tuning isn’t a big differentiator. It costs a few bucks to make one in Replicate and you don’t even have to caption the photos because it can use another model to do that (I usually download and improve them for the second run). You just upload a zip file of images and give it a keyword.

There’s an art to fine tuning but plenty of laypeople have done it, it just takes time to experiment and some cash for the cloud providers.

If the elites are constantly changing

Honestly I don't think there's a rivalry among equals in play. I think the previous "elites" slacked off on the job. What's happening now looks less like a transfer of power than a vacuum being filled.

Regardless, it is the height of absurdity to argue that the "elites" aren't in charge now. A New York billionaire teamed up with the world's wealthiest man and the country's most influential cable news network to buy the Presidency, and the rest are now lining up to pay tribute.

The other "elites," to the extent there are any, are short on ambition, short on cash, and short on media reach.
This argument by massive processed food industries, that if we get Universal Healthcare, that their products and practices will be curtailed because it will be for the actual monetary public good says nothing about what is sold in countries with public healthcare.

Are you saying that corporate processed food manufacturers are not making that statement?

Clearly there is a problem with soda consumption leading to obesity in countries with Universal Healthcare, but that isn't the argument I am making.

Of course it's not optimal, it was simply a pragmatic trade-off. This wasn't the only case with lots of paths, and the divide-and-conquer approach improved the runtime performance substantially on all of them.

What you are proposing is valid, however the “checking each intersection” part is far from a simple one. It's difficult enough with polygons only, but the input can have Bézier curves too. I highly doubt everything would amount to Log(n) - after all Skia already does something similar to what you're saying, unless I'm misunderstanding.
Notably Zuckerberg did not cite any data for his assertions that community notes are effective.
Is this why GLP-1s are so effective at scale and your theory is not? We tried the silly will power way, that did not work. We tried GLP-1s, and they clearly work because industries are shifting because of it. If you want to ignore data out of a belief system, that’s a choice. You believe the intervention is inferior to will. But the evidence clearly shows the vast majority of humans are assisted by an intervention versus “will power” which does not work (gold stars to those who need to feel better about themselves they don’t need an intervention).

I don’t take GLP-1s, but I support getting them to everyone who wants them and ignoring anyone who tries to stop that, or says that is a lesser path for lesser people. I hope you learn to give grace, because lucky people are just lucky, not special.
The violations that the average human has been unknowingly a victim of, courtesy of the advertising industry, are in my estimation so insurmountably numerous that I automatically consider someone working in advertising ontologically evil.

It's mostly the fuser that is sucking down all the power. In some models, it will flip on and off very quickly to provide a fast warm up (low thermal mass). You can often observe the impact of this in the lights flickering.
I think your definition of laypeople and my definition of laypeople are different. If I talked to anyone not in my IT department about fine-tuning, their eyes would glaze over in 2 seconds.

These types of services are, in my opinion, targeted at the people who live their entire computer lives in Chrome & Excel. Not people who know what fine-tuning is or can recognize what "Replicate" is without Google.

You sort of made your own counterpoint by giving a list of statistics that are far from objectively measurable and whose result and meaning depends a lot on the details of what exactly you're measuring and how.

Take inflation for example. Measure inflation in terms of gold, broken arm repairs, hamburgers, or houses and any will give you wildly different figures. The government preferred index prices a basket of goods but the particulars of the basket may not match you or anyone you know, and various corrections are necessary but are themselves subjective. An often disputed one is correction for goods substitution-- if steak goes up people buy less steak and more rice. The current preferred model of the government chains these corrections even though in reality you can only replace so much steak with rice before it's all rice and no steak. These indexes also have corrections for goods increasing in quality-- the price went up but its because the thing got better, not because inflation. etc.

yadda yadda, I don't mean to import the debate here but the point is that there is something to debate particularly when the statistics don't match a person's lived experience -- when the things they need to live are rapidly increasing in price-- especially when politicians are abusing the stats beyond the breaking point (I think of the time when the Biden administration was crowing about something like the rate of inflation increase no longer increasing. What a jerk! ... or is that a snap? ;) ).

And even when the fact itself isn't really in dispute there is often plenty of room for reasonable people to debate the implications or relevance.

When people confused these subjective issues for "basic axioms" and then impose their understanding as "facts" it's extremely problematic and highly offensive to people whose experience has taught them otherwise.
This feels like more stages than should be necessary (something should be able to do LLVM IR direct to WebGPU) but it's great to see it running, very nice!

Empathy is I feel what you feel. Compassion is I understand what you feel, how can we help? It is usually better to aim for compassion because if a person is having a crisis you don't want to go down in flames with them, compassion gives us emotional space to be helpful rather than affected by emotions that can pull us down.

It never really happened and each company came up with their own bespoke solution, seemingly with "mobile phone-first" philosophy.
I've actually reversed my GPU buying logic from the old days. I used to buy the most powerful bleeding edge GPU I could afford. Now I buy the minimum viable one for the games I play, and only bother to upgrade if a new game requires a higher minimum viable GPU spec. Also I generally favor gameplay over graphics, which makes this strategy viable.

As an aside I think the whole strategy is past its best by date. People are wise to it and still elected Trump despite the best efforts.
