Perhaps you should volunteer your services so that the project for which you paid $0 can have release notes more to your liking.
You're reducing programming to its utility in producing exchange value in the captitalist political economy. Well, yes? If you want to write code that isn't useful to anyone and just gives you warm fuzzies, go for it.…
There's nothing to learn about being an engineering manager. You tell your developers to write code, go on vacation, and come back to a completed product.
Cars qualitatively opened up something that humans could never do before. Not really, we explored almost the entire world on foot and horseback. Cars and trains "just" make it easier. A million lines of LLM slop? As…
My understanding is that the Euler solution was in fact a significant achievement, but it's well short of Navier-Stokes (Euler doesn't include viscosity). It's not clear whether Buckmaster and Alpöge's approach would…
OpenAI has said that their models were definitely not trained on any of Buckmaster's sessions after July 3rd (from https://archive.ph/75WcF); likely they found that's when he switched the "allow training" setting off.
Why are people here jumping so quickly to conclusions? I think a lot of it is the continuing denial that AI can do anything useful. It can't possibly be that OpenAI's better-than-Astra model is very strong at math; the…
This is great. I've been trying to get Linux on my M4 Pro mini with moderate success (NVMe and all cores working, but display and wifi only via USB adapters), and recently it's been a slow process trying to get the…
Which is not "theft" according to current legal precedent, and also common sense.
What is that supposed to prove? OpenAI is almost always going to be training new models.
If writing up the paper would involve using OpenAI's unreleased model, neither OpenAI nor Anthropic would be happy about Alpöge having that access.
In that it isn't able to genuinely solve problems Yes, in retrospect I should have been suspicious of that drone hovering outside my window when I was writing down the counterexample to the Jacobian conjecture. This is…
But when the "this new model is totally better" claims keep turning out to be false Current models are in fact much better than the top models from a year ago. I have no idea how anyone could claim otherwise without a…
How else could the LLM even begin to do what it did otherwise. Are we really still having the "LLMs can only regurgitate what was in their training data" argument? Where did the counterexample to the Jacobian conjecture…
Good. If https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/in-defense-of-the-amyloid-h... is correct, the reason existing anti-amyloid drugs don't work well is amyloid leads to tau which leads to neurodegeneration, so by the time…
Public schools generally don't receive enough funding to provide the bare-minimum. This is commonly repeated and basically false. Inflation-adjusted funding per student continues to increase:…
It was banned by the federal government Not exactly. The law was weird, and that's why it was overturned. It didn't make sports betting illegal federally, instead it prevented states from "authorizing" it, which the…
As a practical matter when someone gambles away their life savings we aren't going to let them starve in the streets, we're going to give them public assistance. Despite my libertarian leanings I have to acknowledge…
Ok, and how does banning short-term trading make the world more fair?
Maybe an extra 1% spread doesn't matter if you buy and hold for 50 years, but for 2 years it absolutely does.
Sure you can, the same way you can own a lamp without owning the power plant.

People in hospitals are less healthy than the general population. Clearly hospitals make you sick.
The "standard" theory is that amyloid leads to tau protein accumulation which leads to neurodegeneration: https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/in-defense-of-the-amyloid-h.... Which would explain why current treatments don't…
Fable was able to get Linux booting on my M4 Pro mini. (Using Asahi as a base, not possible to upstream because they really don't like AI). Hardware support beyond USB 2.0 requires tracing macOS under the hypervisor,…
