an LLM would do a fine job for most common things, doesn't really matter if a few of them get hallucinated

The scrubbing, Meta teams explained in documents regarding their efforts to reduce scam discoverability, sought to make problematic content “not findable” for “regulators, investigators and journalists.”

This seems to be the "smoking gun"... but it's unclear from the article what the source or context of the quotations are.

Thinking of Kubernetes as a runtime for declarative infrastructure instead of a mere orchestrator results in very practical approaches to operate your cluster.

This is a pretty good definition.

I think part of the challenge is the evolution of K8s over time sometimes makes it feel less like a coherent runtime and more like a pile of glue amalgamated from several different components all stuck together. That and you will have to be aware of how those abstractions stick together with the abstractions from your cloud provider, etc...

It's all marketing. But it's good marketing.

Anthropic should drop the deal and take the battle up the court system, they'll probably win

Who exactly is Huawei corporate interested in mending bridges with? Seems like that tie is long severed

For me the responses just seem a lot more terse?

Presumably, if it's just a per-agreement to purchase power, there's no downside in the likely case the project implodes.

I think Rust is quite a recreational language.

The least recreational languages are probably like Java,C#

Preprocess the documents to extract certain key features like "Cited Risk Factors", and have the AI model use that instead of each whole document as context?

sure sounds like it

“An unauthorized third party acquired certain LNRS data from a third-party platform used for software development. The issue did not affect LNRS’s own networks or systems,” the company said

I'm more curious how the business is going? Have they got a Fortune 1000 on board yet?

Now, you might be thinking: that’s all well and good, but I’ve got a full-time job, two kids and a mortgage. I’m happy to recycle and eat some tofu now and then, but a “fundamental transformation”? No thanks.

In that case, moral ambition may not be for you. I mean, once you have a labradoodle, a set of cheese knives or a robot mower, there’s generally no going back

I don't read it as saying run by *women*, I think it's just saying "run by women" in the same mode as "run by guys from".

it claims to be open source because the weights are freely available, and whether or not that conforms to the definition some consortium of folks cooked up for what "Open Source" means, anyone who can put aside their feelings of ire for Meta for 2 seconds can tell that making the weights available is meaningfully different than keeping them locked up, and exposes most of the value to the public to use, for free.

What's unclear is who the buyer is supposed to be? Chrome's entire monetization is centered around its synergy with Google's ad business. Cutting off Chrome is so much messier, than the obvious, (although I fear it would itself have bad repercussions) decision to force them to sell Youtube.

Ask yourself this: why would anyone in the world be subjected to these whimsical nationalistic banana republic renaming stunts?

Not a fan overall of what DOGE is doing, but I disagree with your line of reasoning here. Obviously not all government agencies provide comparable amounts of value to the general public based on the resources they consume. Does one have to be an expert on the inner workings and initiatives of each of these organizations to have an opinion? Maybe, but that doesn't seem practical, outside of having some large oversight body employing many people to review this... which is just what DOGE purportedly is.

Now, is the current DOGE proceeding to do this in a reasonable way? No. But that largely comes down your assessment of the people running it, not anything implicit

No one gets promoted for suggesting not doing something.

This. It is way faster to build a decent looking prototype using JavaScript Framework Bloat than shipping something leaner. Performance and maintainability are luxuries that make sense to focus on later. This is in no way analogous to using k8s from the get go, which is a technology focused on being flexible and generic enough to maximize choice, rather than speed or developer experience.

Yes, yes, I you want to make a plain HTML form its fast enough, but for a startup 99% of customers want to feel assured by it having a look and feel which simply takes too much time if you are building things up without a framework

I think there are job where you very much need this mentality and then there are jobs where you don't have to bother much with the non-technical.

Maybe the later are harder to find on demand, but there are plenty there.

There are benefits and tradeoffs each way. I think the most important thing is to know what kind of person you are and what you want, and move towards finding work where you can be mostly actualized in that.

Where did you go to school? In my experience, there is never a slowdown in demand for elite schools, but outside of that track it's a lot tougher.

Of course, a lot of it is your own skills/resume and luck

Everything that makes it harder for companies to get rid of gig workers also eventually makes it harder for gig workers to enroll

Try to borrow without a set of parents who are easily able to cosign the loans and you'll quickly find out the amount is not, in fact, "limitless"...

a function _if(cond, a, b) would probably have been better.

Have you considered reaching out to a local uni? An above average uni student could be better and cheaper than the average junior dev

Because for the average user it is still significantly easier to download some app to use in combination with a password they have a mnemonic for rather than having to figure out their own system for storing and retrieving long tokens in a reliable way. Also, most users are not obsessively clearing out their cache, so device recognition based password flows work seamlessly a lot of the time.

How are they being exploited? Assuming TikTok skims some revenue off the top, they are still being exploited far less than they would by any form of traditional employment.

TikTok is a mirror to the suffering and depravity that occurs in these places. We should be focused collectively on trying to make conditions better for these people, not trying to smash the mirror.

the idea that not paying for an author's book doesn't negatively affect the author is absurd.

there are valid reasons to pirate books sometimes but at the end of the day, someone has to pay something into the system to keep books getting published
