instead of demanding that the companies do the police work

How hard is this? What are they doing now, and is it enough? Do we know how hard they are trying?

For argument's sake, what if they had truly zero safegaurd around it, you could type "generate child porn" and it would 100% of the time. Surely you'd agree they should prevent that case, and be held accountable if they never took action to prevent it.

Regulation, clear laws around this would help. Surely they could try go get some threshold of difficulty in place that is a requirement to adhere to preventing.

What happens when the AI generated porn doesn't feel real enough? It's not the end of the road it's the beginning

Come on man. Really? You think this is a good argument?

Why not charge the people who make my glasses cuz they help me see the CP? Why not charge computer monitor manufacturers? Why not charge the mine where they got the raw silicon?

Here you have a product which itself straight up produces child porn with like absolutely zero effort. Very different than some object which happens to be used, photograph materials

Nikon doesn't sell a 1-minute child porn machine, xAI apparently does.

Maybe you think child porn machines should be sold?

i know, I was being hyperbolic, same point of have <country> arrest Obama while he was in office..

im just asking for an actual source, like a news article from a reputable source. Is that not able to be provided?

Source?

If someone murdered Obama while in office you could have filmed a video just like this in America, crazy that you’d post this

Source?

Ive been using 2.5 pro or flash a ton at work and the pro was not noticeably more accurate, but significantly slower, so I used flash way more. This is super exciting

Anecdotally I've seen lots of anti AI posts on instagram from gen-z accounts, and on YouTube ive seen "ai not used to make this music" in the description.

Also anecdotal, but I do think there's gen z anti-ai sentiment, these kids are joining a world where they will never own a house and have bleak prospects and now even art is something they can't do if AI takes off, so the market might not be there

Seems like older people love AI art, people over 50, which is a sizeable market don't get me wrong, but in 10-15 years idk

I'm an idiot and I know nothing

But I wonder if there could be room for an ARM-like spec that Google could try and own and license but for AI chips. Arm is to risc-cpu as google-thing is to asic-aichip

Prolly a dumb idea, better to sell the chips or access to them?

Also introducing the amazing 6-7 pro model

I'm dumb and barely understand things at a high level, but standard candles never sat right with me so it's interesting to hear that they might not be, but then again who knows.

Neat!

In my experience as a vegan (not just diet..) I think a lot of vegan restaurants are opened by people who mean well but aren't like seasoned in the food industry. The ambiance's are usually bad, weird hours, or the vegan restaurants are also gluten free + raw. Just my two cents in my specific area, but while traveling a lot of vegan restaurants in the US are kinda quirky.

Also the word vegan is bad for sales: https://www.thedrum.com/opinion/2023/11/22/the-secret-sellin... (i didn't read this but have heard this a bunch)

This is a good resource, it discusses 'freshwater withdrawals weighted by local water scarcity' which I think is the same as 'groundwater depletion' but perhaps different.

Also this doesn't talk about almond milk, only soy vs. cow milk.

been vegan for 5+ years, so has my wife, not going back any time soon. Some friends were vegan for years but recently started eating some eggs. My mom was vegan for a little bit but stopped.

I think it depends on your reason for going vegan. Some do it for health or the environment, and maybe those people don't stick to it? You might not see the health results you wish, or you lose motivation being like great I'm one less hamburger when Taylor Swift flies across the world every 5 minutes. Me + my wife do it for humanitarian reasons and I have yet to wake up and be like "today I don't care about the animals anymore", but that's just me.

I don't think I've seen someone who flipped due to animal rights going back to eating meat, but super super small sample size.

I do see, however, articles like this all the time. My opinion is that it gets clicks by people who want to validate not being vegan (like people who are afraid to take the plunge), meat-heads who love hating on vegans, or people who are maybe curious but then read this and be like "oh I guess nobody stays vegan". Also there may or may not be a lot of vested interest in the meat industry's success, so perhaps there's some incentive to post articles like this.

The soybean farmer may enjoy the fact that I eat the beans they grow versus some cow, but cows eat so much more than me and if everyone went vegan overnight or all meat cows died or whatever, soy prices would plummet and the farmers would go broke

Oh yeah good idea anything that ends up failing shouldn’t be attempted in the first place

Genius!! Why doesn’t everyone do that?!

Cmon man hahah

Maybe because they think they could change it while inside? Like so many republican politicians hate big government but work for (Ie get elected to) said government, then try to change it to what they think is better.

Or maybe they want to quit and figured going out in a ball of fire would be more effective than resigning?

Maybe they protested those things too? And maybe they have family that died or other connections to this topic? Or maybe they feel that there’s a better ROI on protesting this while the conflict is ongoing and the contract is newish versus protesting an American company doing business with America? Maybe they weren’t politically aware when those contracts were signed?

Just a few off the top

This comment is confusing. It makes me think that you believe their endgame is actually become the owners of the office they occupied or otherwise gain something. Their goal was to make themselves be heard. Us talking about it right now means it’s working.

They said nimbus was for civilian use only, then time publishes an article saying they are dealing with the IDF directly and have a discount given that Nimbus exists…

The major reason for a base inflation this: If there was zero inflation, then keeping cash in the bank is the safest thing to do. If everyone does this, money moves less, less investment, slower economy. Sure some will still invest, but the vast majority of people will just put money in the bank, or under their mattress.

With >0% inflation, you now need to do something with your money or else you lose money. If my great great grandparents buried their life savings and gave I received it now, I'd get a new laptop and that's about it.

So now everyone has to invest it. 401k's, other investments, etc. This makes the economy start moving, more activity, this is the 'velocity' of money they mentioned as being a key factor in the health of an economy.

Just wants a bigger budget

Author here, let me know if anyone has questions or gets stuck!

For any one hitting the comments without reading it, this book is amazing and is written super well, it’s as if you have a friend explaining the algorithm to you.

Man for something like the main controls you would expect it to be manual.

Picture Boeing moving plane controls to touchscreen - I thing it would be disastrous. I bet the navy had contractors up selling touchscreen tech like crazy.

So many more points of failure for touchscreens it seems crazy

What features are they missing? Which competitors have these features? Are AWS’s results not indicative of success?

Once you have rustup installed, run ‘rustup doc’. You will get standard library documentation from disk as well as “the book” which introduces the core concepts

Then, if using cargo which I totally would, run ‘cargo doc —open’ to see api documentation for your project as well as your projects dependencies both direct and indirect.

All from disk!

Pager duty is typically on a rotation shared between the team members, so ur on call like one week out of 8 or so. Not 24/7, no location tracking, only real issues that impact the product, etc.
