There are actual memes about LLM-People. There are people who speak not just in terminology, but also in style of LLMs. You're so adaptive, I would've highly enjoyed and re-enforced the LLM-verbiage. I think it's entertaining! It's socially inept to talk like an LLM, but also it's not common knowledge either since LLMs are new, I believe this will become way more common.

Social context (pardon the subjective background, I'm trying to only provide what's collectively shared more or less in Germany):

Ursula von der Leyen is hated in Germany as an evil war-mongering gnome. She was previously appointed to replace a highly decorated military general of the Germany Army (Bundeswehr) without having any skills in that area, except being corrupt to the core. She miserably failed the military, cost the state large losses in tax-payer money and was promoted instead being removed. Then she "somehow" became the fierce and corrupt "Queen of the EU".

EDIT (I owe you sources at least):

I think it goes much deeper, I think it's not just corruption, she's a perfect traitor of the EU and Germany. Selling all 500 million europeans out to a foreign state.

I would be so glad to see a short educational video about this. I wasn't aware of this and I think millions of other devs aren't either. Otherwise we'd never have adopted this nightmare.

I love how simple SSH is with it's PK-Auth. The only challenge is session-invalidation and key-management, but that can be surely automated, no?

They want to create a monopoly and destroy every competitor, before they got a chance to rival them.

Why can't OSS software rival closed source software? It should be an open market, at least "somewhat", what's happening for real? EU providers will also get banned, if they reach or exceed US model capabilties?

Closed source providers can close your account at a whim like and destroy your business and then use the data you supplied them to create a competitor (Meta, Google, OpenAI, Anthrophic).

France has the best intelligence apparatus. Recommend checking it, that's also why they are way under the radar. If achieving intelligence by any means was the goal, yeah then Mossad.

Let's compare facts: There's only 10M people there. I think PR skews reality massively

Population metrics deskew this distorted reality: France has 69M, China has 1.4B, Russia 143, Germany 83M people. Mathematically and from a technological sophistication standpoint, these governments must have higher advancements and frequency of successful Intel vs Israel. Mathematical probability speaks against Israel.

[…]You still have to solve for deliverability, which is something I hope to never have to do. […]

This is the exact case where I'd be really afraid of running it on my own and this I VERY STRONGLY BELIEVE should NOT be the case. Participating in email should be easy.

I really want to try this, but I'm afraid my DNS will be blacklisted if I do. Can someone guide me and others, if this is the case? E-Mail is the most complex of everything I know in sysadmin/DNS/Server stuff.

My current provider since almost two decades without any issues, except speed and storage limitations is all-inkl.com, but I really just use it for email and nothing else, therefore most likely overpriced at ~6€/month.

I would love to switch to some VPS/root or anything where I can SSH and install, compile my own services, but something where security is high and support is 24/7 available.

Sounds very much like HarmonyOS. I was just in a Huawei Store and I think from a UI/UX perspective, despite being quite new, it's incredibly slick and leaps ahead in great design and integration within the HarmonyOS ecosystem. Even saw it being used as Laptop OS and Mobile, the convergence is quite applaudable.

The kindest was that the store's staff advised against buying the device as it's quite painful to use it with Google's apk & blobs, because it drains more battery than when it's integrated with your system services directly. I told him, that maybe rare, but I'm actually happy to not use Google apps as much as possible and especially not within my operating system. Another point he made was that 5G'A is blocked by Google, about that I know nothing to be honest.

Some Android forks are indeed quite nice, but the issue has always been the updating model, upstream maintenance and compatibility. With Harmony OS a large cooperation with the consumers in focus and the one developing the entire hardware stack is behind the OS development and maintenance making it safer against supply-chain hacks and a deeper integration possible than any other OS.

Between 2013 and 2015 I was working on UWB (Ultra-Wideband-Radar). It's stealth, undistinguishable from background noise too. Of course that depends on multiple attributes, but in general the signal can be understood like a chirp within multiple frequencies, thus looking non-linear and especially hard to detect, if there are multiple such devices additionally communicating with each other. Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) makes it even more efficient at being stealth, without diving too deep into it.

So this negative-light technology is quite interesting in that it's stealth, but it has to come a long way to reach the ubiquity of UWB. I'm curious if and how such technology could be used in space though. Happy to hear more!

One of the most plaguing questions I have is that it's very odd that specialists are so quite about the wide-spread integration of UWB chips in all modern phones and the accompanying "possible" surveillance nightmare. As a government it'd be total horror to be fully penetrated by an adversary like this. If you find otherwise please share the paper here, there's a lot of literature about UWB, OAM, beam-forming, antenna-design and related technology that, when put together easily make someone doubting it at least more inclined to be more open.

My work back then was sold to military by one of my professors behind my back, and after confronting the professor about it he laughed it off telling me it's normal and okay. I refused to publish about it, as I was finding it difficult to find a positive usage scenario, plus he was profiting of off my work that I needed for a grade financially outside of university and of course of no intention of integrating my work. To add salt to that wound he instructed me to change my applied-science paper to be more of a guide for a few select PhDs who'd receive the financial grants, making my work a footnote at best. I have no words. Later I learnt by a friend working on his Dr. degree how he got betrayed by his Dr Father. He was working on a science-backed improvement for a factory, after telling his Dr. Father he found that he patented the technology and sold it to the factory. When he found out, he heard a similar story to mine, where his Dr. Father basically told him, "lesson-learnt, better me than someone else". He finished his degree and kept his profile-low for years after that to not cause conflict.. quite sad.

My initial plan was to provide IPS to the campus with a few-cm accuracy and gesture recognition through walls as a cool gimmick with future work focusing on accessibility scenarios.

But with current devices it's possible to use the UWB chips in distributed mesh (similar to find-my) to create an ultra-high-resolution 3D-feed with city-wide, real-time and through-wall sensing at mm-accuracy. I'm not even factoring in resolution upgrades using AI.

Cook me, if you want, this was genuine scientific work taking months of work back in 2015 to be able to build, but being backstabbed by your professor was quite unreal to find out. Later I got similar signals from friends at Fraunhofer and Max-Planck. Just listening to their work stories made clear they were fooled doing science, when they in tandem were quite frankly building military reconnaissance technology, but distributed in small disconnect groups of low-paid scientists (PhD/Dr/MSc).

DO NOT GOOGLE EXPRESS VPN!

The GitHub links are one of the nastiest Malware I ever encountered in my life!

I steals your Apple Keychain, all your "Safe" Passkeys, your Google Chrome "Saved Passwords", even your KeePass Database!

Login and security is still not sufficiently solved with attack-proofs for the most important things in life like your Bank, Email, Wallets, Social Logins.

Your "logged-in Sessions" also get stolen! It's unbearable that most cookies expire in months "ON THE SERVER SIDE"! You have no control and can't log the attacker out!

It happened to me, when I was in China and searched for ExpressVPN, because the main website didn't load forever, the GitHub link seemed like an alternative.. damn.. I changed my Google Password 5 times and the attacker was still able to log-in, it was so devastating! I had to change my email passwords multiple times too.

Sessions are what make logins valid and this is the weakest link of all. I wish Sessions used Off-The-Record encryption with One-Time-Pads, such that each acccess requires a new key, that can only be derived with a valid reply that makes safe that the attacker can be logged out safely.

Someone posted here, thanks for that!! It immediately reminded me of HAML: https://harcstack.org/

I like HAML a lot, it was the most pleasant to develop with. And it shares a lot in common with Stylus. They both shared things in common.

NO NEED FOR: Curly braces, parentheses and semicolons. The cool thing, it was all optional and I wasn't forced to make use of all shortcuts!

I developed my own CSS Framework in 2003, shared with some UX guy at Yahoo, who incorporated it into YUI mostly as is, after I waived all rights. Most of that became internet standard. Later I had my own PHP based CSS scaffolding framework in 2005 that could also generate grids (before flex-box). SCASS/LESS was really similar to my framework, when it came out.

But I disliked it, it just looked like PHP mixed with CSS. I thought why accept the ugly syntax, despite a compiler being available?

The best ever existed is: HAML + Stylus + (HARC?)

See the beauty of it: https://stylus-lang.com/docs/selectors.html

Now compare with HAML https://haml.info/

I think https://harcstack.org/ makes a good successor.

I think it's cute!

What if it's steganography or symbolic or a puzzle.

If it's none of that, to complain about it is a bit too harsh.. for something on page 67.

aggressive and loaded comment you made here.

Actions provoking WW3 are as I commented. You've not made a valid counter argument and have only chose PARTISANSHIP. Which I have not.

I suggest etiquette and neutral speech before spitting hate in internet forums.

there are private banks and operations similar to BlackWater, like Osherbrand and many others that steal, murder and take capital from the public by re-enforcing external threats and then providing "rescue" via their private fleet to extract the corrupt politicians for 30% to 70% commissions and murder away anyone hindering them. Collapse my ass, it's foreign influence and internal corruption. Like always.

Be neutral and objective, but America, Ukraine and Israel are currently the most agresively operating forces salivating over WW3. Yes, Russia is also quite brutal, but it's not going to profit from WW3 on the stock market!

Who are the PROFITEERS of this?

How can WE fight this war mongering?

Do we need to get active on the Battlefield? Do we need to sabotage Sattelite Networks, disarm financial incentives etc. etc. to combat those who want a WW3?

Only billionaires are going to become richer from a war. Everyone else will eat radioactive food and their DNA will be wiped out forever from the human gene pool. Seem like an Eugenic goal

This is really not true my friend. I would love to help you if I had some more time, but let me look for a tutorial.

Because the FineWeb Dataset is already super good. You can train 7B or 32B Param models at home

The >600B Param model isn't really using all the data effectively, but with a MacStudio Farm you can also train that one at home (if you have enough money to buy at least 100).

Here's the easy way: https://github.com/FareedKhan-dev/train-deepseek-r1

More details: https://www.bentoml.com/blog/the-complete-guide-to-deepseek-...

Here's how DeepSeek-R1-Zero was built, basically from 0 to Hero, including weights the FULL Training Data and everything you need to get it running locally or on servers.https://medium.com/@GenerationAI/how-deepseek-r1-zero-was-re...

For $30 USD you can also train a small DeepSeek at home!

Maybe they optimized for one of their TREEE SOLUTIONS:

- https://Jules.google

- NotebookLm

- GoogleCollab

How can a company have 3 contenders to Windsurf and Cursor, which are VSCode forks with a little sugarcoating and not make any impact?? The CPO should be fired.

I think also after seeing Google Gemini's Video that their entire department is now fully Indian, including the CEO. If that isn't racially biased, then idk. See yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GO7bPb5cTA&t=2270s

I am sure about that, I also thought about hallucination, but it was precise in the first prompt. 2nd and follow-ups had plausible denial and created similar, but clearly different code.

It could even print the list of files and their exact names if triggered right. They may have surely patched that, so that nobody sues them with digital proof. But we recorded it. It was when their new model came out. Don't remember the date, but a few months ago. We have two videos and different repositories it should not have access to at all.

Microsoft owns GitHub. OpenAI has a multi-billion dollar investment from Microsoft and access to their Infrastructure "for training" and seems likely, they got access to GitHub. Something that they shouldn't do, since that's illegal and very unethical.
