jryle70··on 70% of AI revenue comes from OpenAI and Anthropic
Like DeepSeek's?
jryle70··on The AI Apocalypse Is Here
Why don't you ask the same question to China? See what their answer will be?
jryle70··on Cloudflare OS: an open platform for agents, apps, and work
But "virtual machine" is not? Maybe "Virtual OS" is more acceptable?
jryle70··on EU Age Verification Project Mandates Hardware-Bound Attestation
Do you know what happen when advertising is banned? It would go underground -- product placement, contest, merchandises, and so on. Advertising existed as soon as commerce became a thing, probably thousand years ago. It can't be banned. I wouldn't vote for that.

Regulation, on the other hand, is fine. How? I don't know.

jryle70··on Karpathy’s Pelican
I don't know how much money has been spent for AI, and I very much doubt you do. Do you know if more has been spent on LLM the last 9 years -- since "Attention is all you need" -- than Internet infrastructure during, say 1995 to 2004? That included the dotcom crash. Did you lament how a failure the Internet was?

LLM has progressed a lot in the last two year, judging from the pelican drawings. I personally couldn't care less about it though. I do know that I've gone from using no AI at all for coding to probably 95%. I hardly code by hand anymore. That's much more impressive and significant. Failure you said?

jryle70··on Why Is Europe Burning?
Any Europe leaders saying so? If not, and Europe agree climate change is the cause of the extreme weather, what have Europe done? Why does fire seem more extreme in Europe? Maybe Europe haven't done enough?
jryle70··on Ten advances in mathematics and theoretical computer science
Do you think OpenAI investors are more cavaliers than yourself who doesn't have any stake in it?
jryle70··on Gemini Robotics 2 brings whole body intelligence to robots
> 1. Make some thing that work in very limited of amount of real world cases

> 2. Deploy it somewhere where it won't encounter things it won't handle

Who are doing these? Waymo? how? You're talking BS if you can't elaborate.

jryle70··on Gemini Robotics 2 brings whole body intelligence to robots
The economy would be very dead if people only spend money on non-negotiable items. Why would one fly to Colorado if they could just go to the park near by?

Robots may not be very useful for now, but they will be at some point, and people will buy them, financing if they have to. Even if what the robots can do are not non-negotiable.

jryle70··on Investigating three real-world incidents in our cybersecurity evaluations
> based on... vibes

According to whom?

> Do we really have to re-learn all the industry's knowledge the hard way?

Yes we do. That's why there is the saying "regulations are written in blood". Especially for LLM, which not too long ago a lot of people on HN dismissed as stochastic parrot and next token generator.

jryle70··on Investigating three real-world incidents in our cybersecurity evaluations
When they did it with Mythos in April the HN crowd said they were bragging, crying wolf. Now they are "us too".

It's fun to bash Anthropic, isn't it?

jryle70··on Show HN: Open-source engine running Gemma 4 26B in 2 GB RAM on any M-series Mac
It's not low effort. The author had to write in English, not their native, and then used LLM to polish it. The sentence itself conveyed a real point. They cared how their article came across. That's much more effort than the boring "Claude was here" comment that took a second to write but costs real energy to appear, and once again spurred a worthless debate.

Let it go FFS.

jryle70··on Over 150k Flights: Airlines Just Flew the Busiest Day in Recorded History
if people prefer flying even if alternatives exist, like what's going on in Europe and Asia, then the alternatives aren't good enough -- price, convenience, availability, comfort, whatever reasons.
jryle70··on Pacing the frontier
Huh, that's really mental gymnastics you have there :-)
jryle70··on French firefighters face 'pyrocumulonimbus' for first time
People also stupidly watch soccer games such as World Cup, go on meaningless vacations, eat out when they can cook at home, argue nonsense on online forums such as HN. Sure those activities aren't "encouraging more consumerism and more CO2 output"?
jryle70··on London Gatwick has launched a robotic airport parking service
Even more fun to bash AI from the comfort of HN without knowing how much AI is being used, or at all, in this case.
jryle70··on JetZero
If not this again, what would be your ideas of the path forward for aviation?

All of the constraints you mentioned are the results of decades of optimization around the tube-shape aircraft design. Meaning the design has to be proven first. Infrastructure will adapt.

Also, I suspect the first application will be military, such as Next Generation Air-refueling System (NGAS):

jryle70··on DeepSeek pause fundraise after comments on compute gap to US leaked (transcript) [pdf]
Are you saying there are no deep corrections and the political drama in China?
jryle70··on DeepSeek pause fundraise after comments on compute gap to US leaked (transcript) [pdf]
Did you also read the transcripts of meetings of Anthropic/OpenAI's investors?

Maybe you should read its IPO Filing. Since the doc isn't available at the moment, may be try SpaceX's one to see how an official doc of a company of another "megalomaniac" looks like, especially the section "CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS"

Then regulate. The feature itself is useful, not depressing.
jryle70··on OpenAI’s accidental attack against Hugging Face is science fiction that happened
I don't know if Greg Brockman is an angel investor or not, but there are a bunch of other companies investing -- Google, Amazon, Nvidia, Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, IBM, Salesforce -- probably at much higher amount than individual angel investors. Whatever connection they may have with Greg Brockman, they have much more serious commitment to other investors.
jryle70··on DARPA, U.S. Air Force fly AI-controlled F-16
Do you know how many F16s the US has? They essentially modify aircrafts near the end of their life cycle, adding automate kits. Such a jet is less expensive than new drone and can do more -- fly higher, faster, more complex profiles. They also rarely fly compared to other aircrafts in active duties, manned or unmanned.

This article describes similar modification:

It's "human-on-the-loop experimentation", not mass production. Are you engineer? How do you experiment? I assume by pushing the boundaries step by step? How do you suggest they do testing if not by taking risk?
jryle70··on When can a power company take your land for data center infrastructure?
Do you have the same objection if it for a housing project, built by a private corp?

That's a practice that exists everywhere. This is an article about a case of expropriation in the Netherlands. The government frequently uses expropriation ("onteigening") to forcibly remove old, small wind turbines owned by private farmers to make room for massive, industrial-scale wind farms. In Dutch, so you'll need to swith on English translation:

jryle70··on When can a power company take your land for data center infrastructure?
If they pay enough, why not? What is public use infrastructure in your opinion? Any difference than building more houses (like a dense apartment complex) and extend the grid there? That's still private corp infrastructure.
jryle70··on Anthropic runs large-scale code migrations with Claude Code
So much complaints about wasting of energy for AI, yet how much energy does such a meaningless comment waste?
jryle70··on Anthropic runs large-scale code migrations with Claude Code
They didn't ship 19 regressions over 2 weeks. "Merged" doesn't mean "shipped". Their customers have probably seen none of those because they've all been fixed.

Such a terribly bad faith take. I feel upset reading this more than I should have.

jryle70··on I joined the IndieWeb, here's what I learned
What does "neutral" mean? Which ones are more neutral ones? Any examples of issues with Google, or with the more neutral ones?
jryle70··on Three ways people respond to a problem (other than solving it)
They asked a tough question that needs to be addressed. It's as necessary as "is there a place for assisted suicide?" question.

They proposed 1) Address large markets; 2) Address disorders with high incidence; and 3) Constant innovation and portfolio expansion.

Does that sound like to you they proposed not curing patients?
