These comments feel like llm authored astro turfing…

I wish more Kiwis knew this.

Ai;dr

I was granted a free subscription to the FT when I was at grad school 9 years ago, surprisingly it still continues to work to this day…

I use XFCE too, simple and doesn’t get in the way.

Or you can just try stuff and see if it works

Ok bot.

“Mid level developer $150 per day”, is that a joke?

Also the math in this gist doesnt math.

So maybe the chargeout rate is highly informative.

2/10 would not read again.

AI reply. Hmm

Unfortunately thats how the politics and economics of violence work when you are the most powerful country in the world (n.b. I am not American and think this situation is deplorable, but the legal facts and construction support Trump’s actions)

As Jonathan Turley reports https://jonathanturley.org/2026/01/03/the-united-states-capt... this operation will be justified as executing the criminal warrant (issued by the Biden DOJ and outstanding since 2029) and responding to an international drug cartel, a very similar legal framework to the one used against Noriega in 1989 - which was tested in multiple US courts. So like it or not there is longstanding court affirmed precedent supporting that earlier operation, which will now be used to defend the actions in Venezuela.

Sorry but this just reads as hyperbolic one shotted nonsense

Its reductive, but also roughly correct.

Bot comment. Its not x its y… Why bother?

I love it

I had to bash my head against the wall and submit myself to paying for a creative cloud license. At least acrobat just works. Although I wish there was a reasonable alternative.

Absolutely.

Maybe, I'm just having fun reducing entropy locally in my codebase, while it gets ejected as heat in some data center on the otherside of the planet.

Sure, but only until Claude Opus 6

What? You can get consistent output on local models.

I can train large nets deterministically too (CUBLAS flags). What your saying isn't true in practice. Hell I can also go on the anthropic API right now and get verbatim static results.

“non-deterministic machines“

Not correct. They are deterministic as long as a static seed is used.

Huh? These are documents written (not a Maori technology), printed (not a Maori technology), bound into a book (not a Maori technology), placed in a library (not a Maori idea/concept). A Computer database is irrelent here, you seem to be picking out arbitrary words to try and sound smart?

People arent threatend by this specific activity, less so the nonsense behind it. The threat is the corruption of useful and working systems to virtue signal for no benefit, whilst espousing their apparent (but on close examination lack of benefits). It is the social and intellectual degredation which is alarming.

Creating a custom filing system is busy work simply put, changing to a propritory system lowers discoverability of information to an overwhelming majority of people initmately unfamiliar with "Maori gods" (99.9%), the same activity could be accomplished under standard tooling (Dewey), at lower cost, greater compatability and therefore benefit. It would be discoverable by default.

Honestly, many New Zealand’ers (especially the inner city Wellington/Auckland public service class) have a major problem with native cultural relations (bordering on obsequiousness) that is increasingly out of step with developed global practices.

It gives rise to the utter nonsense exemplified in this Article, which is pure virtue signalling.

I am a New Zealander, I have been lucky enough to spend a huge amount of time working overseas (in many different countries, settings and regions) as well as having attended foreign and (domestic NZ) universities. I have seen it all. Screeching about “booing and hissing” says more about you than the person you are replying to. Put up a coherent response rather than saying because someone isn't in a tiny community they cant have an opinion. That is just braindead behaviour.

Except Mātauranga by definition refers to “TRADITIONAL” knowledge.

And as OP points out this isnt it.

I too feel gaslit respectfully, reading your reply and the article.

Tokens are just discretized state representations.

Have you upgraded your binary recently. I feel like this was true 1-2 months ago, but not anymore.

Casinos, Financial Markets of all denominations, Horse Racing are also examples of pure play speculation. Speculation is often just a form of entertainment.

Your moral equivocation is utterly irrelevant.

Speculation is a legitimate use case.

There is substantially more to it than that but I will let you chew that over just to point out how blatantly incorrect your prior is.

I use mine almost every day…
