Elon has stated that you're "retarded" if you believe the government uses SQL. So it's difficult to assume any level of competence from him or his team or anyone who continues to prop him up quite frankly. This should be a blatant and obvious tell to anyone with passing technical abilities. But many seem to lose all ability to reason when it comes to supporting Trump and people around him like Elon.
What makes you think people with no known age are receiving benefits?

This entire tangent is based off Elon Musk not understanding COBOL or the thing he's looking at before he started ranting on X.

The other key problem is that they knowing confidently lie on top of just not caring about the truth.

Also, the strategy of "flooding the zone" is something Bannon openly talked about. When these people say they will do X and we then see them doing X, we really should stop saying things like "skeptical paranoid part of me think they might be doing X".

I know it's an unpopular opinion but tbh those Google security blogs always read more as a marketing material than engineering effort. Why I think so it's because statistics always has two side of the coins - if you want to make something look better or worse than it really is, it's trivial to do so. There's simply not enough data or methodology or different angles taken for me personally to take these blogs as a very relevant source of information but YMMV. We are all different.

Of course. These systems are non-deterministic and you still would require those with domain expertise to extra verify whatever these LLMs output are 300% correct as they do not reason. (Yes, they do not.)

Otherwise, why aren't LLMs and humanoids already replacing human pilots for flying airplanes end-to-end?

Sometimes using a hammer onto every problem isn't a solution; even if the LLM tells you otherwise.

I'm very cognizant of that, and I would understand it if they came back and reasoned or debated with me. But I promise you, the stuff I got back from some of these individuals was pure talking points and they were downright hostile and aggressive to even entertaining the idea of a debate on certain topics. It was eerie, and I love spirited debate and hot topics; they make in-person conversation lively as long as everyone stays civil.
Saddening. The gall to assume they can walk into a large institution with computing infrastructure older than them and start poking and pulling cables out without thinking for a moment. The arrogance it takes to not stop, to not doubt, to not take the time to understand, but instead to make pronouncements of inefficiency or errors when it is _you_ who is erroneous. Beyond the technical ignorance and arrogance, it is sickening because of how fundamental a safety net social security is for peoples' literal survival. Sociopaths should not be sent into these places.
I get that they are not a new kind of Google - but often, there is no alternative because there is no old kind of Google anymore. Search results have become so bad that using llms as at least a starting point is becoming more and more necessary.

And if that is becoming a common opinion among people who are in practice professionals search engine users, imagine how bad it is for normal folk. They can be hardly blamed for using chats showed in their faces as a search engine.
I guess it is a good thing that they are now clear about the state of create-react-app. I used it about a year ago because it was still recommended on the React page, and got a lot of deprecation warings. After a lot of googling I realized that people now recommend vite, so that is what I went with (thinking popular = more likely to be supported in future and having more information on the net).

But TBH I'm not really happy with vite. It seems to be made with a big flagship SPA in mind. If you just want one page, or if you want to include some react in a plain website, it is overkill. It creates dozens of files with potentially hundreds of configuration options. I guess this is typical for the entire JS ecosystem. But sometimes I wish the stuff around React was simpler and more opinionated: Just throw the .tsx files in src, run reactc, and include the output script in your HTML. Maybe add a flag to watch for code changes / hot reload.

> acting as if they can is just going to come across as arrogant.

Hold on there a sec: WHAT?!

Engineers tend to solve their problems differently and the circumstances for those differences are not always clear. I'm in this field because I want to learn as many different approaches as possible. Did you never experience a moment when you could share a simpler solution to a problem with someone and could observe first hand when they became one of todays lucky 10'000[0]? That's anything but arrogant in my book.

Sadly, what I can increasingly observe is the complete opposite. Nobody wants to talk about their solutions, everyone wants to gatekeep and become indispensable, and criticism isn't seen as part of productive environments as "we just need to ship that damn feature!". Team members should be aware when decisions have been made out of lazyness, in good faith, out of experience, under pressure etc.

I read that "ugly" not as a "what is this yesrerdayish mess, was life in the twntieth really that unrefined?", but as a "technically, it's breaking all the rules", a judgement from typography knowledge, not from generational identity. And I read it as an expression of surprise, because they spent so much time with that ubiquitous type in sight without ever noticing it, until one day they stopped not noticing it. No trace of generational shifts.

There are other ways to prove eligibility. For instance if you've been working for 50 or more years then you're likely to be eligible. Or you might have school or other records that give you an approximate age. Or your children may have birth certificates that give you a minimum age.

If you want to optimise for SEO you might want your content to be rendered on the server, however: rendered on the server is not the same as being sent down in the initial HTML payload. Server components are not convenient to use, because they cannot be interactive, even code that you would expect to work does not work on the server.

There are good parts like server actions, however they are plagued with very strange limitations making them not so useful.

If you want to statically generate websites and want to use React, NextJS can be a good choice, however for complex web applications I find that it's not ambitious enough to justify even the extra compile time that I get from its tooling compared to Vite.

You wouldn't guess it from AdaCore's homepage, but SPARK tooling (including provers) and the GNAT Ada compiler are both made freely available, with the goal of attracting interest from FOSS projects.

Here's a page on this: https://blog.adacore.com/a-new-era-for-ada-spark-open-source...

Disclaimer: I've done a lot of stuff with local models and RAG methods, I haven't done a lot of work with public models and so don't know how Gemini, GPT and so on are working right now. Claude + GraphRAG through Bedrock is my main mode of playing with this stuff right now.

Things LLMs are good at include summarisation and contextualisation.

They can use that facility to help summarise processes and steps to get something done, if they've been trained on lots of descriptions of how to do that thing.

What they're not good at is perfect recall without being nudged. This example would have been very different if the LLM had been able to RAG (or GraphRAG), a local data source on palaeontology.

I think we're going to see an evolution where search companies can hook up an LLM to a [Graph]RAG optimised search index, and you'll see an improved response to general knowledge questions like this. In fact, I'd be surprised if this isn't happening already.

LLMs on their own are a lossy compression of training material that allow a stochastic parrot to, well, parrot things stochastically. RAG methods allow more deterministic retrieval, which when combined with language contextualisation can lead to the kinds of results the author is looking for, IME.
Well it'll get the answer right on the next Web scrape and training now...

Show HN: KanzlerClash – A political autobattler for btw25 (8 days left)
Kanzlerclash is an autobattle game built in time for #btw25 — just 8 days left! The idea: make political education engaging and interactive at the last moment before the election.

Players develop their views, join factions like #FraktionHabeck or #FraktionScholz, and fight for influence. Inspired by MyBrute, but with political evolution instead of fixed classes.

This was a spontaneous idea to gamify political engagement in Germany before election day. Would love feedback: Is this an effective way to get people thinking about politics at the last minute?
Sounds more like you can taste static electricity.
Spot on. But unfortunately the AI grifters are now active and selling this snake-oil on to the rest of us.

> This is why the LLM cannot tell you it don't know.

To the untrained eye it appears that it knows everything about every question it answers when in fact those who are experts in their own domains can detect if it is hallucinated and generated complete slop.
A better way to differentiate might be to say how many watts have been used for an answer.

> Humans reason

Are you sure? They reason in a way to match others predictions, right? The problem of humans transporting information from one individual to another remains. All reason can effectively only be prediction, as it requires two persons at minimum. And there is a lot of noise to filter.

> LLM predict.

Well, there is a human that needs to reason with what the LLM has predicted. So from that perspective, it should suffice already for the moment.

Are LLMs able to play the card game Set?
Set is a card game where players have to identify sets of three cards from a layout of 12. Each card features a combination of four attributes: shape, color, number, and shading. A valid set consists of three cards where each attribute is either the same on all three cards or different on each. The goal is to find such sets quickly and accurately.

Though this game is a solved computer problem — easily tackled by algorithms or deep learning — I thought it would be interesting to see if Large Language Models (LLMs) could figure it out.

Not the way I see it.

I'm not willing to cite every single instance of a trend so a commenter can pick apart each one to try and dismiss it, when the problem is the trend itself, and not specific instances.

That user also wants to try and pretend that the issue magically stopped after the local police were apparently counseled on the matter, and yet, hark!- another instance less than 4 months old![0]

I think this is mostly a whataboutism.

> But if it makes you feel better that your own country isn’t also going to hell in a hand-basket because you’re too busy doomscrolling the UK news, then keep at it. ;)

I'm deeply concerned with what is happening in many countries, but that doesn't mean I can't be more concerned and critical of a country that is doing more wrong in some contexts than others.

What precisely is your point? There are various benefits not contingent on age, so while it is concerning, it by no means would by itself invalidate someone's entitlement in receiving the checks. There is probably some interface or was, for a period, a bug that meant nulls were entering the db, or something of that nature. This needs to be fixed if it still exists, and the data needs to be made true.
Oh I can think of dystopian arrangements between Cloudflare, Google, Intel and AMD that'll fix that.

Ok, but are humans not using predictions while reasoning?

Turns out, the majority of buyers don't actually care about this stuff, beyond the initial 15 minutes of 'fame' in the headlines.

The majority of the market just cares about price. Company policies, manufacturing locations, advertising services, etc all come second.

Until we figure out how to change that, don't expect or blame companies for doing different.
Kubernetes is an abstraction of VMs so that single container can be implemented in the absence of a code package. The container is the binary in this circumstance. Unfortunately they lose control of blame shifting if their deployment fails. I can no longer be the VMs fault for failure.

It's the same question foreign companies wanting to serve the US, Russia, or China already have the answer. It's not a difficult position: the money almost always wins.

For instance, Apple has modified its Chinese iMessage software so that all data is always stored on Chinese servers (though it's technically still end-to-end encrypted, they're the only permitted e2ee encrypted app, so I assume something shady is going on there). Apple also added RCS to their iPhones because China demanded support for it (RCS isn't e2ee of course). When big governments demand changes, even the least evil big tech companies are willing to bend the knee as long as their business model doesn't break.

I think an even more interesting use case for semgrep, and also LSP or something like LSP, is querying for exactly what an AI needs to know to fix a specific problem.

Unlike humans, LLMs have no memory, so they can't just learn where things are in the code by remembering the work they did in the past. In a way, they need to re-learn the relevant parts of your codebase from scratch on every change, always keeping context window limitations in mind.

Humans learn by scrolling and clicking around and remembering what's important to them; LLMs can't do that. We try to give them autogenerated codebase maps and tools that can inject specific files into the context window, but that doesn't seem to be nearly enough. Semantic queries look like a much better idea.

I thought you couldn't really teach an LLM how to use something like that effectively, as that's not how humans work and there's no data to train on, but the recent breakthroughs with RL made me change my mind.
Why people tend to nail some stuff into their products?

We have been talking about the AI revolution for several years already, and yet there is no IDE or plugin for VS Code that supports multiple OpenAI compatible endpoints. Some, like Cody, do not even support "private" LLMs other than the ollama endpoint on localhost. Cursor supports only one endpoint for OpenAI API compatible models.

I made a custom version of ChatGPT.nvim for myself to be able to use models I like (mostly removing hardcoded gpt-3), though I dropped it because then I needed to invest time into maintaining and improving this version for myself instead of doing my job.

I'd like to run several specialized models with a vLLM engine and serve them at different endpoints, and then I'd like an IDE to be able to use these specialized LLMs for different purposes. Does anyone know a vim/neovim/vscode plugin that supports several OPENAI_API_HOST endpoints?

For now, this is only possible with agent frameworks, but that's not really what I need.
Yeah dude, I’ve got a wife, two young children and a full-time job in legal services. These are the side projects that LLMs give me the time and cognitive energies to work on.

Congratulations on having so much free time!

I do lot of data analysis so I am pretty familiar with awk, et. al. But you know, thanks for the condescending lecture, I guess?
Why? That Cobol code has decades of bug fixing in it, and obviously it works.

Rewriting it in another language needs to be "bug by bug" compatible anyway (eg "use zero for unknown birthday") and it will most likely introduce new bugs.

In the end the language isn't as important as the tooling around it, and I bet there are modern compilers and debuggers available.
