I stopped answering as soon as I realized a human had almost no hand in this.

If I'm not alone, I presume that might skew your results.

I genuinely don't think Malbolge, for example, warrants a Wikipedia page if Odin doesn't

Until it came to anything vaguely to do with computing or electronics, which turned into basically magic

(psst autotune is made by a company called Antares)

"bubble" used to be used a lot more when talking about very deep pipelines, eg Pentium 4 depth.

Since when is AOG a well-known abbreviation?

I presume you mean Anthropic-OpenAI-Google?

If white collar crime was actually punished then this wouldn't be such a regular occurrence

That's why I said "if you don't watch the kids' shows"

According to this very article, 4-bit dynamic is essentially lossless

A year of work? There are like 9 movies and a handful of series. If you don't watch the kids' shows it's a few weeks of casual watching

Where are you seeing that it's heavily AI driven?

Take a look at Deno. It's pretty great and now has exceptional node compatibility

Ultrasonic wavelengths are orders of magnitude longer than light.

I'm not putting my head under. How do we know this won't cause aneurysms? Damage eyes and ears? Getting a medical device approved takes time because of concerns like this.

they still refuse to recognize the existence of the nation of Israel. If your counterparty doesn't agree that you have a right to exist, there's no negotiating.

Quick question - does Israel recognize the existence of the state of Palestine?

Yes, Israel is unequivocally committing genocide in Gaza. Genocide is not just "are they killing everybody", but also "are they driving people from their ancestral homelands"?

Israel is constitutionally an ethnostate. If there is an existing population, there is literally no way to establish an ethnostate without genocide - either through killing or displacement.

Technically, you can make money without doing evil.

The transcript does seem to overlook post-training steps like Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) (but I'll certainly won't claim that Rich Sutton is unaware of such things; RLVR has a very narrow set of evaluation approaches).

I wonder if this is a precursor to Keen Tech leaning into David Silver's Ineffable Intelligence approach.

Here's Nigel Farage, at 6:53 AM the morning after Brexit passed, saying the claim on the bus was a "mistake" and they were never going to send that money to NHS.

You're saying the bus didn't exist?

I feel like the point of the article was "hey chatgpt write me an article about SQL"

Not a tutorial. Not an ORM. Actual SQL: joins, subqueries, window functions, query plans.

My brain absolutely checks out when I read this stuff now.

Not to mention that query plans are absolutely not "actual SQL".

The irony of somebody dumping pages of Claude output into this particular GitHub issue

It is, but also it's ok to silently judge people.

If somebody told me "I choose to only read AI-generated books" I would also silently judge them.

This feels like the equivalent of "whatever music you liked at 16 defines your taste"

What utility does the spinning motor bring on this thing?

As Feynman said, anything where they have to put science as a suffix is usually not science.

This is such an absurd thought-terminating cliche. Science suffixation seems more an indicator of the age of the field, not its scientific rigour. Are "climate science" and "computer science" not science?

On the flip side, just because it says "ology" at the end of a word does not mean it's a science.

The irony of this comment on an app that is:

- free and open source, which is an ideology, and that

- expands access to otherwise locked down media, which is again an ideological stance

What's wrong with yt-dlp - an app almost entirety driven by political stances - taking another one regarding llms?
