Given more code hosting services, I wonder if we'll also see a corresponding increase in the number of alternative VCS or if git is legitimately very entrenched as a tool. I am just being a bit grouchy but I do wish…
I actually agree to an extent with the idea that there is also some more political influence on LLMs on stuff like GLM or DeepSeek. This is reflected in conversations even on HN where this is brought up as a risk so I…
I think I understand your point but the funnier response to this question is that actually sometimes it is: https://futurism.com/grok-looks-up-what-elon-musk-thinks To your narrow point, it's very obvious that Musk…
I think the distinction with the Chinese models (or with any of the other models) is that they aren't particularly vocal and obviously active about their politics. I don't see how political commentary about Musk's is…
This is essentially an open research question. ML theory is unfortunately very weak relative to where the empirics are. I think there's a relatively optimistic paper that was posted a while back here but I would also…
At a high level, the text samples are how the relationships are derived. If we treat text samples as sequences of tokens, then the sequences of tokens describe the joint distributions they occur together which confers…
One example along this path as an example is that every function must either terminate or have a side effect. I don't think one has bitten me yet but I could completely see how you accidentally write some kind of…
So I can't tell if the linked commit is an actual attempt or just an experiment but it did always strike me as odd to make a JS runtime in Zig when my impression was there were a lot of work-stopping compiler bugs at…
I'm curious how this view fits in with BERT or the T5 release which prior to the current LLM craze were the de facto language models for use in pretty much any tasks. Was this a position that would've otherwise grown…
Some of those organizations (Linux and Mozilla) work on open source code for which they are already trained on. For clients like Apple, they almost surely have agreements to not do that.
Well it did contain a request to not notify according to that same letter. I suppose that brings up several questions. 1. Does that mean the same thing in the ToS? 2. How valid are these requests?
Depends on how legitimate you consider an administrative warrant and how willingly you think complying with one is. On a more practical level, forcing them to go to court might not be much better. If this went to a FISA…
His anti censorship stance isn't necessarily born out by the data: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/09/25/elon-mu...
X under Musk has sustained more government takedown requests. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/09/25/elon-mu...
I think in this context, scaffolds are generally the harness that surrounds the actual model. For example, any tools, ways to lay out tasks, or auto-critiquing methods. I think there's quite a bit of variance in model…
Actually given boot chain protection, this will probably get harder as time goes on but even assuming some kids are able to, this is clearly definable as a user error: the fault lies with the kid and as a parent you…
Except none of these bills (California or the one in question) as currently written require an ID to actually be verified, merely that the user provide an age. This seems intentional as it's seems to solve the user…

Some of these are also just like really weak? One of them for example seems to be some random employee at FB donating ~$1k to a politician and calling that a link. The entire "Proven Findings" is all over the place and…
Depending on the implementation, I could see that having rate limiting effects. There're only finitely many IDs so scaling sockpuppeting will saturate these IDs quickly but it's quite easy to spin up a new anonymous…
Just an FYI, but I don't know if being in the website field of GitHub really helps since there's a rel nofollow on the link.
I mean in the sense that they seem to literally be random names. I don't even think they're people associated with Palantir in anyway.
I'm assuming this is satire but I'm wondering why include names of seemingly random people? Why not leave it empty or make it signed by high level known executives.
Once that side channel was found, it was kind of inevitable it would be plugged. Even under a normal administration, that's an opsec leak.
Passkeys are an open standard? You might as well argue against SSH keys.
