Cambridge- for a few reasons: (A) Amazon would likely offer you another position if you still wanted to work there. (B) It’ll probably never be easier for you to go to, and do well, in school than at your current age / position. (C) You’ll meet a wide variety of people that’ll broaden your horizons.
POV you don't live anywhere near Sonoma.
Would you be able to publish the individual benchmarks for Qwen2.5-Coder-32B? GSM8K specifically would be useful to look at.
How are the panoramas chosen? That is, can I select one that isn't currently on the map?
re, iteration: Have you encountered ImGui [0]? It's basically standard when prototyping any sort of graphical application.
re, GUIs in statically typed languages: As you might expect, folks typically use a library. See Unreal Engine, raylib, godot, qt, etc. Sans that, any sort of 2D graphics library can get the job done with a little work.
You might also take a look at SwiftUI if you have an Apple device.
Congrats on your release! That said, please stop posting AI slop to Hacker News.
No, Russia is the prime (if not only) candidate.
Why? They've been developing a system of "single-use agents" to overwhelm European governments and keep them on their back foot.
This is likely a test run.
A lovely article on this was recently published in The New Yorker that you may enjoy: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2026/02/09/to-build-a-fir....
Dispatches from the nascent American panopticon.
From the path taken [0] in the original article [1], it would appear that these folks passed through roughly 8 (known) license plate readers [2].

Through what mechanism is he controlling the other branches of government?
Doesn't the Fed do exactly that though? And without political influence? What would a different pro-labor system look like that could deal with national monetary crises?
Without the Fed, how would you advise the nation deal with events like the Great Depression, the Great Recession, or COVID? Would you disagree that the Feds actions shortened these events and thus helped the public in the process?
I'd be interested in learning more about your workflow. I've certainly used plaintext files (and similar such things) to aid in project planning, but I've never used paper beyond taking a few notes here and there.
This is a red herring. Rogue regimes will, by construction, seek the security offered by nuclear weapons. Hence the need, where possible, to apply diplomatic or military means to prevent exactly that.
well done, that's extremely hard. wishing all the best
hell yeah, hope you keep off that weight. Best to you and yours, hope all the best
good for you mike, best to you and yours
best of luck to you big guy, best to you and yours
best of luck to you big dog, make sure to work out
good for you big dog, keep it up
You’re literally just restating OPs point but with heavy sarcasm.
Obviously not.
As in the 20th century, it means to cultivate moral, and thereby political, opposition to imprisoning activists.
It’s a soft power the US has gradually lost.
Hard to blame this squarely on the Republicans. Access to private license plate readers was granted under the Biden admin, and no doubt each of the last four administrations played some part.
To me, the CPB and ICE are looking more and more like an American Gestapo.
The recognition of any "status quo" is political.
Push back, as in this thread, can change which hierarchies are accepted and which aren't.
In particular, the use of "Greater China" normalizes corporate acquiescence to Beijing's explicitly revisionist policy preferences.
Taiwan is an independent nation. It isn't lost. And all free nations should intervene whenever the right to self-determination of another is threatened.
Say hi to the chairman for me.
In optimal control I believe they call these "shooting methods"
Those are certainly benefits, but it's most likely a prophylactic move.
LLMs will be (are?) a critical piece of infrastructure. Commoditizing that infrastructure ensures that firms like Google and Meta won't be dependent on any other (OpenAI) for access to that infrastructure.
Meta in particular has had this issue wrt Ads on iOS. And Google wrt paying Apple to be the default search engine.

Suspect that a core reason for Jerry's PoV is that the dynamics of the (zeitgeist-related) software industry do not currently favor small teams. That's counter to the ethos of Silicon Valley and it's guy-in-a-garage mythology.
Jerry would've been 14 around 1980, plus or minus a couple of years, which would've been in the heyday of personal computing. TRS-80s, Apple IIs, the IBM PC, its clones, etc.
Then, and for the next 40-odd years, software was king (read: capital-light). And anybody could write software.
LLMs are much less egalitarian.
Can anyone write an LLM? Yes.
Can anyone train an LLM that customers will want? A few. But most will need a few Ms, maybe even some Bs.
Hence the AppAmaGooSoft benefactors and Jerry's complaint about the status-quo.
Software-like economic dynamics will return, but it'll take a while, and until they do, it'll be much less morally satisfying to be a VC (in software) than it has over the last 40 years.
yes
I mean, being a bit glib here, but a lot of programming is dealing with someone else's type system.
Moreover, for those of us who write C fairly often, the mnemonics here are familiar.
Actually, as custom type systems go, this one is pretty elegant. Reminds me of Rust.
