I genuinely don't know if it was a bug or intentional behavior like TFA, but on the last win10 machine I used Edge would leave several of its background browser engine processes running indefinitely after the application was closed. Seems like they're just happy to let their users make unwitting sacrifices for their convenience of their devs.
that's probably fair but I imagine that without memory access Claude would have been opening and searching the (completely unordered!) bag to check for progress critical items like the pokeflute every 5 minutes
Every agent step takes both a visual snapshot and a memory read, the memory gives more consistent tileset and location parsing and also has some stuff like party state/status conditions that isn't usually visible.
I do not regularly use either, but my impression is that Cursor's users have primarily been using Claude and are largely switching to Gemini, while Windsurf has a lot of existing enterprise contracts that wouldn't even notice an underlying model switch from the proprietary Codeium model to o3 mini or whatever.
Autoadmit is a message board that required .edu to register and ended up with a pretty similar culture (though with an older userbase given the initial focus on law school admissions)
This is about a meta analysis from 2018 and therefore misses that the biggest recent growth in the anti-porn movement has been among secular feminists. It also has nothing to say about the way that onlyfans et al "revolutionized" the porn industry by creating a multibillion dollar MLM that exploits both its creator/employees and consumers with different but equally questionable fictions that normalized the purchase and production of pornography to new segments of the population.
For some reason the Canadian iZEV rebate was provided to the dealer, not the end customer. Dealers were to sell below cost and then get money back from the government, so they'd be on the hook for the difference if they couldn't get the rebate. The rebate was scheduled to cut off in March but was obviously running out of funding before schedule. Dealers had some leeway to batch their claims and Tesla sent an unprecedented number of claims right at the end that drained the remaining funds, but these claims are not necessarily all for sales from that small window. I can't find any specifics but surely the claims submitted have to substantiate that a car was sold to a Canadian resident. I'm still not sure that Tesla did anything illegal unless they are found to have sent fraudulent claims, which should be trivial to check.
My extended family (mostly people in that late 20s through early 40s range) use a snapchat group to share the kind of videos of our kids that most would appreciate seeing but which really don't belong on normal social media
That's what it smells like but this is still a weird way to disclose something like that. I imagine some people with free afternoons are taking a stab at auditing atop's PR history right now. I'm not personally up to the task, but the fact that the top 3 contributors other than the original author are ByteDance employees might cause some to jump to conclusions.
I never commented on the subject of the article because I don't come here to engage in political flamewars. I will continue not to comment on it, but rest assured that you have absolutely no idea what I am angry about. Having engagement driven clickbait on the front page is bad for the entire site.
What if the article was titled __FTC Removes Posts Critical of Kroger, Albertsons__? That is an alternative that is as accurate as the current one and sends a very different message. Telling a selective subset of the truth is just a barely clever form of lying.
Misleading clickbait heading, article mentions that 4 years of blog content were blanket deleted and then randomly implies that certain tech issues were targeted among all the other (also-deleted) posts.
The posts in question are public and available here: https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/blog
Harvard has never needed to charge a single student tuition at any point in my lifetime, it's just a polite fiction over their real business (as a tax exempt hedge fund that launders prestige for its connected donors). Note that they would never take advantage of their financial situation by admitting more students, because that would go against their real goals as an institution.
I have not tried Claude Code, but besides the model lock-in the number one complaint I have heard is that it consistently over provides context leading to high token usage.
This is neat but watching a reasoning model that stops to consider "I have read half of a dialogue block, time to press A to get the rest of the text" gets old really quick. I think I'd rather watch a model try to play pokemon against human opponents on a simulator like pokemon showdown (which I understand is a bit further in an IP rights grey area than emulating a 30 year old game). In that case you would get to see how it handles unknown information and updates its reasoning based on the success/failure of its predictions.
Yeah I agree, I think that this is just a case where the transness of the cult members was actually beneficial in a Darwinian memetics sense - there have been public warnings about the Zizians for half a decade but they were all pattern matched to 'bigoted transphobic fear mongering' and excluded from the Overton Window. It took the random murder of a federal agent (which got media coverage on an entirely separate axis of attention) to break this, and I wonder how long Ziz would have walked free even if the group continued to commit less headline worthy crimes.
it's very common for violent cults of personality to target potential members who are social outsiders, there's a dual benefit that such individual are more likely to offer loyalty in exchange for membership and they also provide ideological cover as the cult can blend in to a larger perceived movement
the fact that this particular set of outsiders creates skewed media reactions (from total misdirection on one end to unfair over indexing on the other) is a novel third benefit
Interesting, if there are many potential teachers fleeing the areas you describe, then at least reasonable and well-governed cities like New York/Chicago/Baltimore/LA must have no problem finding high quality teachers to educate their children.
In both cases it looks more like a usage spike in the third month and then back to a pattern of roughly linear growth. Not sure if those spikes were related to updates to the neuralink itself or they just got really into a game/project/etc
Speaking as a ripcord user, it helps your unofficial client avoid being blocked when you don't update for years and fall behind on feature parity (though I personally don't miss most any of said features)
That was a slightly unfortunate choice of example because my groggy Friday-afternoon mind assumed 'Kan-san' was some sort of polite and idiomatic term for 田舎 dwellers and wasted a few minutes trying to figure out what it was short for.
The recent price increase was directly because of demand to import PS5s from Japan to China after the release of the Wukong game. I'm not sure exactly why, but importing Japanese consoles was cheaper than buying whichever ones were left in China.
Can you clarify the claim you're making? The 87 Chicago mayoral election is within living memory for over half of eligible voters in America. Do you think election procedure (which varies significantly as it is under the sole jurisdiction of the governments of states like Virginia) has uniformly improved to the extent that fraud like that, or even just a fraction of that scale, is completely impossible?
They place banner ads implying that donations are needed 'to keep Wikipedia thriving for years' which is a weird way to express that they annually collect over 50x their cost of maintenance in donations. And most of what they do collect gets distributed to 1) their employees (employees of the foundation are mostly not directly involved with running Wikipedia, which is edited and maintained by volunteers) and 2) other organizations that have absolutely nothing to do with the operation of the site.
