That describes most of them around here (suburban NY, USA).

The [REDACTED DRUG STORE CHAIN] ones are the worst. They get confused at the drop of a hat, and have some employee, constantly intervening. I suspect they run “brogrammer” code.
So what does the abuser do for the 4 years they're not able to get an apartment due to the eviction?
I think the model needs to be thought about human anatomy, not just fed a bunch of scans. It needs to understand what ribs and organs are.
I feel Nix is eating their lunch. Even though Nix as a language could be tough, it's a simpler solution than Dagger.
It provides a shell, almost complete reproducibility and isolation can be added through containers.
Working with dependencies to build source code using nix is usually straightforward but having the right binary version that doesn't have the same love as major languages (i.e. terraform, flux, etc) is one thing Nix really needs to implement. Marcelo's package version search[1] is a way to discover the particular hash but then you need to explicitly use that nixpkgs version for that particular binary and do a lot of mental gymnastics in your nix files. Nix could implement a syntax where you define the package versions as attribute set and then internally does a discovery of the nixpkgs hash for that versions and installs it. Flox and DevBox follow this pattern but I don't see why you need and external tool where this can be embedded in Nix (the cli).

I've found some use cases where CSV can be a good alternative to arrays for storage, search and retrieval. Storing and searching nested arrays in document databases tends to be complicated and require special queries (sometimes you don't want to create a separate collection/table when the arrays are short and 1D). Validating arrays is actually quite complicated; you have to impose limits not only on the number of elements in the array, but also on the type and size of elements within the array. Then it adds a ton of complexity if you need to pass around data because, at the end of the day, the transport protocol is either string or binary; so you need some way to indicate that something is an array if you serialize it to a string (hence why JSON exists).

Reminds me of how I built a simple query language which does not require quotation marks around strings, this means that you don't need to escape strings in user input anymore and it prevents a whole bunch of security vulnerabilities such as query injections. The only cost was to demand that each token in the query language be separated by a single space. Because if I type 2 spaces after an operator, then the second one will be treated as part of the string; meaning that the string begins with a space. If I see a quotation mark, it's just a normal quotation mark character which is part of the string; no need to escape. If you constrain user input based on its token position within a rigid query structure, you don't need special escape characters. It's amazing how much security has been sacrificed just to have programming languages which collapse space characters between tokens...

It's kind of crazy that we decided that quotation marks are OK to use as special characters within strings, but commas are totally out of bounds... That said, I think Tab Separated Values TSV are even more broadly applicable.
The interactive 3D models are nice
Yeah, but most of that is in practice nonsense.
The best model is the one you can fit in memory.

About as soon as GPT-4 came out I said that OpenAI was doomed on the trajectory it was on because they could not afford to develop a GPT-5, GPT-6, etc.

Real innovation comes out of doing a lot of experiments and that means doing experiments quickly with the resources you have. So you do most of your experiments with non-frontier models, enough to make a good prediction of what would happen if you maxxed out your model size, then you go big. That's how you make everyone else have a "DeepSeek moment".

A company like Apple wants to pick something on the frontier and keep advancing on a straight line. Works great if you want to make an M1, M2, M3, ... ARM chip but that's not how progress works in AI today.
The CA legislature actually passed a law stating it was their intent to pass a law?
The PinePhone still has to be good enough to make it a sensible choice over the iPhone. Ideology can't be the only selling point.

Compare the market success of the PinePhone to the Framework laptop. Their laptops are technically competitive with the Dells and the HPs of the world, while also being repairable.

The PinePhone doesn't even beat the until-recently-current iPhone SE in performance. It's a terrible choice, technically speaking.
If this was two dimensional, it would be the game Hi-Q, more or less.

>"a factory used to". That's questionable

1) The past gives context and so we shouldn't dismiss it. In this case, it provides insight into why the current tax structure is the way it is. If the underlying premise change (ie the nature of work changes) we should look to also changing the tax system. To me, that is looking forward, but using the context of the past to inform our judgement. Imagine if the past tax was based only on agrarian income because that formed the basis of the economy when the country was founded; I don’t think we’d want that same tax structure in a modern economy when the proportion of farmers is in single digits.

2) I think this ignores the overall system. The economic system isn't one dimensional. Society benefits from the factory, but the factory also benefits from society. They don't work in isolation, so a single end goal ("just skip the factory and give people money") is an over simplification of the system and its goals.

3) But you would all pay an income tax, so (in an ideal implementation) it balances out. No automation tax collection, but higher income tax collection. The inverse is true when it spills over the automation tax threshold: lower income tax on per capita production, but higher automation tax collection.

>I'm not sold. Actually, I think there's more to it.

Of course there is, and I've admitted there would be a lot of nuance. We should be careful that the nuance isn't gamed, but that doesn't mean the best alternative is the current system, or worse, an overly simple system like a flat tax that disregards nuance completely.

>There's been an historical association between people's job and their sense of identity

Yes. There's some benefit to this, but it can easily spill over into a toxic mindset. I don't want to live in a society where people's identity (and potentially moral self-worth) is at the whim of an employer. I think the job/identity coupling is a very Western mindset (probably rooted in a Puritan work ethic), but not a particularly healthy one. That's why we have issues with diseases/deaths of desperation like you allude to. I think the better solution is to decouple people's self-worth from their work, rather than ensure people keep working.

>The oddball reality is we're sort of there already
I hear this a lot, but it reminds me of when I was in college (decades ago) and I had a professor (who was nearing retirement at the time) and he spoke about when he was in college he had to write an essay about how people would manage their lives when they no longer had any work to do because of all the efficiency gains that were just on the horizons.

>As a species we are enslaving ourselves to the perpetual feed through laziness.

I think this is the Aldous Huxley A Brave New World viewpoint (written in 1931) so I don't think it's anything new. FWIW I tend to agree.
Agreed. Much like the vast majority of people that boldly claim "X Country" has the greatest Y in the world, it's unlikely this person has lived (for any significant duration) in any other country besides X.

Having spent many years in Taiwan along with standard doctor appointments and even surgery, I found the medical care in Taipei to be just as comparable as any of the doctors I've seen in the west.
How so? This is an old puzzle with lots of versions online, I'm surprised it'd be struggling with it (except for the twist that I'll leave out for one of the levels).
If I didn't know any better, I'd say these people were acting like they were picked by a convicted felon who acts like he's above the law, mainly because his experience tells him that he is.
eh too simple... it's a paste based on chicken, it's not JUST chicken. And the paste contains a lot of shit, honestly.
It doesn't seem surprising at all. Genetic history correlates with race, and genetic history correlates with body-level phenotypes; race also correlates with socioeconomic status which correlates with body-level phenotypes. They are of course fairly complex correlations with many confounding factors and uncontrolled variables.

It has been controversial to discuss this and a lot of discussions about this end up in flamewars, but it doesn't seem surprising, at least to me, from my understanding of the relationship between genetic history and body-level phenotypes.
Ah, but in North America, only double-pane windows are required. Triple-pane windows are considered necessary for noise abatement but are prohibitively expensive. There are government rebates for upgrading older homes from single to double-pane windows, but no third-pane increase in the rebate.

I am a YIMBY (in the form of an incremental upzoning advocate), but the problem with the Abundance campaign is that it will do little to affect housing affordability if wealth inequality is not addressed at the same time.

The young and the working class increasingly don't have the capital to buy even with an increased supply of housing.

Absent that, the new housing units will be bought by entities who have most of the capital: very wealthy people and real-estate investment funds.
School district.
omg, really, what is happening over there. Sounds like the wild west.
Dang, my kids district serves 53,000 students. Our food is not scratch built lol.
I’m playing devil’s advocate. Again, I worked with Go in a production setting for 3+ years and didn’t need to do any code generation. Maybe my use case was simple… or maybe it’s unnecessary.
> “We finally have the first indication of what the cause of Kawasaki disease might be,” . . . “We discovered a small protein sequence that is targeted by the antibodies that kids with Kawasaki disease produce as part of their immune response. This is a highly promising breakthrough toward determining a causal agent of the disease.”

Does this imply that it's an autoimmune disease, as some have surmised, or that there's a virus that remains unidentified? It seems unclear.
This doesn't parse for me:

> a discussion over a particular piece of code [...] hammering it until we get that functionality correct

Care to provide an example of sorts?

> then presenting it with broader context to fit it in

So after you have a function you might convert it to a method of a class. Stuff like that?
Another commenter already mentioned their caps. I'll add that the cost of medical school is one of the true reasons for short supply and one of claimed reasons healthcare is high. For the latter, they have to recover the cost of their expensive education.

Getting education costs down to community college levels would knock out a major source of high prices. Or they'd stop pretending it was. Whichever it actually is. :)
I used the astronomer example earlier as the most simple, minimal version of something you might think of as a kind of microscopic form of "planning", but I think that at this point in the conversation, it's probably helpful to switch to the poetry example in our paper:

https://transformer-circuits.pub/2025/attribution-graphs/bio...

There are several interesting properties:

- Something you might characterize as "forward search" (generating candidates for the word at the end of the next line, given rhyming scheme and semantics)

- Representing those candidates in an abstract way (the features active are general features for those words, not "motor features" for just saying that word)

- Holding many competing/alternative candidates in parallel.

- Something you might characterize as "backward chaining", where you work backwards from these candidates to "write towards them".

With that said, I think it's easy for these arguments to fall into philosophical arguments about what things like "planning" mean. As long as we agree on what is going on mechanistically, I'm honestly pretty indifferent to what we call it. I spoke to a wide range of colleagues, including at other institutions, and there was pretty widespread agreement that "planning" was the most natural language. But I'm open to other suggestions!
Nearly all radiology practice has integrated AI to some degree or another at this point.
I'm too young to remember anything from the time. I have many times heard people say "american schools classify ketchup as a vegetable" as if it actually was put into practice or true today, both in the states and while talking with people in europe. it's one of my earliest memories of realizing firsthand how "truth" is so easily manipulated.

Experiential Robotics Platform moves out of beta phase
This article does not line up with my experiences at all. Sometimes I wonder if it's something to do with prompting or model selection.

I recently built out a project where I was able to design 30+ modules and only had 4 generation errors. These were decent size modules of 700-5000 lines each. I would classify the generation errors as related to missing specification -- i.e., no you may not take an approach where you import another language runtime into memory to hack a solution.

Sure, in the past, AI would lead me on goose chases, produce bad code, or otherwise fail. AI in 2025 though? No. AI has solved many quirky or complex headscratchers, async and distributed runtime bugs, etc.

My error rate with Claude-3.7-sonnet and OpenAI's O3-mini has dropped to nearly zero.

I think part of this is how you transfer your expert knowledge into the AI's "mindspace".

I tend to prompt a paragraph which represents my requirements and constraints. Use this programming language. Cache in this way. Encrypt in this way. Prefer standard library. Use this or that algorithm. Search for the latest way to use this API and use it. Have this API surface. Etc. I'm not particularly verbose either.

The thinking models tend to unravel that into a checklist, which they then run through and write a module for. "Ok, the user wants me to create a module that has these 10 features with these constraints and using these libraries."

Maybe that's a matter of 25yrs of coding and being able to understand and describe the problem and all of its limits and constraints quickly but I find that I get one-shot success nearly every time.

I'm not only laying out the specification, but I also have the overall spec in my mind and limit the AI to building modules to my specifications (apis/etc) rather than trying to shove all of this into context. Maybe that is the issue that some people have. Trying to shove everything (prior versions of the same code, etc) into one session.

I always start brand new sessions for every core task or refactoring. "Let's add caching to this class that expires at X interval and is configurable from Y file and dependency injected to the constructor". So perhaps I'm unintentionally optimizing for AI but this fairly easy to do and has probably led to a 5-10x increase in code I'm pushing.

Huge caveat here though, I mostly operate on service/backend/core lib/api code which is far less convoluted than web front-ends.

It's kind of sad that front-end dev will require 100x context tokens due to intermingling of responsibilities, complex frameworks, etc. I don't envy people doing front-end dev work with AI.
I've found the Nix ecosystem to be lacking, missing packages, wrongly built packages (from the official upstream), and out of date versions. Homebrew still outclasses Nix in this regard (quality over quantity).

After taking Nix for a spin, I cannot be bothered to learn another custom tool with a bespoke language when I already have containers for doing the same things.

For Dagger, I can choose from a number of languages I already know and the Docker concepts map over nearly 1-1
I tested it with my Hercules Inpulse 500 and it works beautifully.
Versatility. They're well-suited for a lot of environments where a normal desktop or laptop aren't.

They're great shop computers, for example. It fits anywhere, it doesn't wreck your energy bill if you leave it on all the time, and the nicer ones have juuust enough oomph to load up 3D CAD files or whatever else you might need.
My favorite hate term from that category is my Operating Systems professor saying "I-Knoten" for inode. Not "Indexknoten" oder anything, just the letter I + "Knoten".
> What bias of moderation exists is that you probably wouldn't migrate to Saudi Arabia unless you were already mostly ok with their values... you'd probably keep your opinions to yourself, but it's unlikely your values would fundamentally change.

Then, how do you explain, for example some people who migrates to France from a majority Muslim country and decides all French people are infidels and deserve death? Similarly, I know a lot of people who would curse America, yet still chooses to live in America. They were never mostly OK with the values on their current countries...
>They forced Claude to plan around a line ender that doesn't rhyme and it did. Claude didn't choose the word green, anthropic replaced the concept it was thinking ahead about with green and saw that the line changed accordingly.

I think the confusion here is from the extremely loaded word "concept" which doesn't really make sense here. At best, you can say that Claude planned that the next line would end with the word rabbit and that by replacing the internal representation of that word with another word lead the model to change.
> 3) opens an interactive terminal to look inside 4) publish to a registry once you exit the terminal

It seems like it would be good to be able to prevent the pipeline from publishing the image, if the inspection with 'terminal' shows there's something wrong (with e.g. 'exit 1'). I looked a little bit into the help system, and it doesn't seem that there's a way from inside the 'terminal' function to signal that the pipeline should stop. Semantics like bash's "set -e -o pipefail" might help here.

with-exec lets you specify that you want a command to succeed with e.g.

container | from alpine | with-exec --expect SUCCESS /bin/false | publish ...

If you try that, the pipeline will stop before publishing the image.

When I was younger I used to believe that nothing serious could happen because I don't use Windows and "I was smart enough" to not execute malware (yeah, I didn't care on downloading it; how wrong I was).

Someone already mentioned zero days but let me elaborate a bit on what can happen when visiting a website:

- Without zero days involved, you are already disclosing digital information, ip address, browser fingerprint, precise location access could be granted with relaxed browser settings, etc.

- As a dev, you may have services running locally, let's say, postgres, web servers, etc. -sometimes we install stuff and forget about it- the malicious website could access these.

- It could try using your sessions for other websites.

- It can also interact with your browser extensions, many of these do not take precautions for this.

- It can also try using your hardware, camera, microphone, bluetooth, we now even have webusb.

- It can also try to use your CPU/network for cryptocurrency mining or attacking other servers, it could even use you as a proxy while you are on the website.

- With zerodays, it could do just anything.
They are complying so they can do business in the respective countries. Not really news.
Sounds like it's time for a co-op.
I think GP means "relying on" in the "avoiding official record keeping" sense rather than the feature being used literally. You could explain away the latter as a bug or accident, BUT given the brazen corruption of this admin, they're probably using it intentionally to skirt existing laws or procedures.
Cool topic! This isn't surprising given the AI models would be trained such that existing medical practices, biases, and failures would propagate through them as others have said here.

There is a published, recognized bias against women and blacks (borrowing the literature term) specifically in medicine when it comes to pain assessment and treatment. Racism is a part of it but too simplistic. Most of us don't go to work trying to be horrible people. I was in a fly in community earlier this week for work where 80% of housing is subsidized social housing... so spit balling a bit... things like assumptions about rate of metabolizing medications being equal, assess to medication, culture and stoicism, dismissing concerts, and the broad effects of poverty/trauma/inter-generational trauma all must play a role in this.

Overall, the authors found comparable ratings in Black and White participants’ perceptions of the patient-physician relationship across all three measures (...) Alternatively, the authors found significant racial differences in the pain-related outcomes, including higher pain intensity and greater back-related disability among Black participants compared with White participants (intensity mean: 7.1 vs 5.8; P < .001; disability mean: 15.8 vs 14.1; P < .001). The quality of the patient-physician relationship did not explain the association between participant race and the pain outcomes in the mediation analysis.

I don’t think this needs to be solved. We should both strive for what each of us want to have.

Obviously in Europe there will be more variety because there’s more cultures and independent countries.

We have the advantage that we can take good ideas from each other, because people can travel easily and observe that certain things work well.

The US doesn’t have this benefit, since it’s so inward oriented. That’s fine, but don’t go saying Europeans don’t have freedom if you can only look at Europe through the domestic lens.
