It's so strange. I do all the things you mention and it works brilliantly well 10 times out of 11.

Your link actually don't touch upon what I found most compelling: That /u/maxwellhill stopped positing two days before her arrest and haven't posted again since then.

"ethics or whatever" seem like a good tagline for people rooting for an AI-company when it's being sued by authors.

Calling using a proven tool (LLM agents) to generate code that provide real business value a "fatal flaw" was already hyperbole.

The equivalent of not using LLMs in your workflow as a software engineer today isn't eating whole foods. That might have been true a year ago, but today it's becoming more and more equivalent to a fruit only diet.

Always wondered why Rings of Power have 84% critics score but just 49% audience.

There're thousands of blog posts and books describing the vast majority of code most software developers write on a day to day basis.

99.99% of the code in that B2B SaaS for finding the cheapest industrial shipping option isn't novel.

Have you not used commercial LLMs to generate program source code? You describe it as if it's an almost unsolvable problem which might have been reasonable 2 years ago but I just used gpt-5 to generate a complete NextJS application for flashcards.

I've literally been employing nondeterministic content generation based on statistical relevance defined by an unknown training data, to repeatably produce content satisfying a strict mathematical model for months now.

Except I could think they mean the name of the thing, the size of the thing or a million other things. Especially if i have no knowledge of the underlying concept of colors.

> "Where's the money in Instagram?" Preventing Instagram from developing into something that has a negative effect on Facebook. It's a "keep your enemies closer" move.

Now do the same with google search results.

Don't know if I consider "not having ads until people become dependant on it" a pro.

Wow that hurt to watch.

You didn't say anything about "commonly referred", you said:

> I doubt that Carlsen was referred to as "Norwegian teen"

Which he was, apparently at least 292 times

It's a verb as well: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/shock

> On all sides. Goldman Sachs has their man in Washington, as does Planned Parenthood.

I might be misinterpreting you here but it sounds as if you're saying that all is well and good since all lobby organisations are represented in Washington. The problem to me with this idea would be that not all of the people are represented by all of the lobby organisations. Which makes the system not even a mob rule, but simply a plutocracy.

My other ML news letter have a heavy emphasis on NN. I understand why, that's where a lot of novel, cutting edge ML discovery is done. Though as I've understood it NN is not as common in the industry and it would be interesting to get stuff on what's going on in other areas of data science and ML.

> it is what you think it is.

So, racist bad science then?

That got black and white quick.

Isn't console games and video games equivalent expressions? As opposed to computer games? (that is: I agree with you)

Ah I see, I suppose we interpret what I asked for differently. I had hoped for en example of some specific statement (perhaps from John Gilmore) that can be dated to more than 10 years ago, thus proving that "Many people made such claims long before he did."

It's not even that I doubt you, just that nagging feeling in the back of my head that say "He haven't given an example of a person making such a claim dated earlier than 10 years ago." I have to apologize because I feel that this has more to do with some mild form of OCD on my part.

Yes, you clearly said nothing about action (I don't see why you're adding "also" because that was exactly what I was addressing in my last comment?). I'm not sure what you mean by "Powerless in government is an orthogonal concept" and thus I wouldn't know how I conflated them (not even sure what "them" refers to, action and governemnt, powerless and government?)? I do agree that I made a strawman and for that I apologize, to clear this up could you answer the question in my last comment: "what point were you making when stating that we're almost entirely powerless in representative government if not to argue against taking action?"

I'm really confused here... you said "Many people made such claims long before he did." and I asked for an example. I didn't ask what movements he's a representative of and I don't know whether anyone who attended DEFCON heard about it. All I wonder is if their is one clear example of someone who made such claims long before he did?

What did I attribute that you didn't say? I assume you refer to "to say that we shouldn't act because we are almost entirely powerless in representative government" and I can see what you mean but what point was you making when stating that we're almost entirely powerless in representative government if not argue against taking action?

"Many people made such claims long before he did." Could you give an example?

I also think it's dangerous to say that we shouldn't act because we are almost entirely powerless in representative government. Same argument could have been made against civil rights and suffrage movements throughout history.

I can see how yelling can be interpreted as caring, but I can also see it as just another poorly way to handle conflicts (kind of like being passive aggressive which I've seen a few examples of Steve Jobs being). I suppose I'd rather work in a place where my boss handle conflicts without yelling nor being passive aggressive.

"Steve only yelled at me four or five times during the 13 years I knew him." am I the only one who think being yelled at by your boss is... a bad thing? Like, at all.
