There isn't, I think the point is in terms of how "far ahead" models are, K3 was likely trained much more recently than Mythos was. It's just something to note, it's not especially prescriptive.

Mythos was withheld because of the threat to security and/or marketing stunt (depending on your leaning), I don't see what benefit there could be for not releasing K3 immediately.

Having a well curated one-logical-change-per-commit history is incredibly valuable when bisecting a regression.

Surely not coincidental with having unprecedented access to a global network of people to reach, worse economic opportunities than any other living generation and limited means to change matters on their own, and the USA which is the largest exporter of global culture has GoFundMe as an essential part of its healthcare system

They have the consumer market but want the enterprise market, because it's a lot more lucrative, so they're probably going to just keep chasing that even though there's no signs they'll stop losing to Anthropic. They don't need to do that much to keep the consumer market because of momentum.

You can but that doesn't help you keep the flood of contributions out when you don't have the time or resources to properly discern good from bad. Maintainers would rather have 10 good human authored patches than 100 patches from LLMs, even if 20 of them are good. Even if 50 of them are good, probably.

Always the play if you're comfortable sourcing and installing your own because their store will always have a decent markup.

The thing I like about Linux is that if your thing doesn't work you have a way better chance of being able to wrangle it into working (odds increasing as your technical skill increases)

Meanwhile on Windows if something doesn't work you're generally SOL.

I do still write assembly sometimes, and it's a valued skill because it'll always be important and not everyone can do it. Compilers haven't obsoleted writing assembly by hand for some use cases, and LLMs will never obsolete actually writing code either. I would be incredibly cautious about throwing all your eggs into the AI basket before you atrophy a skill that fewer and fewer will have
