Well there is no “roof rule” on the page they linked

Are there any other self-guided online university level CS courses like this?

Well there are plenty of places that aren’t in anyone’s backyard

Who is "we"? Lol

I would be surprised if, in the "mature" future of AI tools/products, the labs building the models are also selling/building to end users like they are now.

I think I'm at 1 success out of 15 attempts for Gemini to explain how to do something in Google Sheets/Docs, though, so I'm not hopeful that anyone can actually implement this.

People love to talk about this as one of the helpful features of AI (knowledge extraction from documents/summarizing), but I'm really not convinced. The last generation of models seem to have 70-90% accuracy on tasks like this, which is way below what i'd consider a reliable tool

e.g. https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/digital-health/articles...

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11197181/

I don't know if there are any benchmarks for this sort of task, maybe the new ones are improved but I also doubt that people are using GPT5.5 pro ultrathink for these tasks anyways

This post is full of AI flair unfortunately

This is quite interesting, but the blatantly AI generated explanations are like an anti-signal for quality

Me explaining to a teacher why i cheated on the test: well did you stop to consider the cognitive load of doing the problems myself and how much easier it was to cheat?

I can’t agree more, this “our software is open source but we have unwritten rules about how you can use it or we’ll attempt to shame you” attitude is absurd

I think they're talking about conjectures that are unproven but seem "likely true" and people build further math off the assumption. E.G Reimann hypothesis

This is exhaustively covered in the article

Not a problem if they're offering unlimited, lol

Just like me :)

This comment seems addressed to the portion of the population that both doesn’t know how to safely buy illegal drugs and also is able to determine which drug sellers are reputable. i can only assume this is an extremely small amount of people

Wouldn’t those second order effects be downstream of the first order effect of people being tricked?

Chess is absolutely not a solved game, outside of very limited situations like endgames. Just because a best move exists does not mean we (or even an engine) know what it is

Ok, so all this to say that yes, the Mac Mini is totally unnecessary and massively overspecced for what is actually being done on-device.

Well the alternative is them just never upstreaming and maintaining their own fork, which seems worse for everybody

This already exists in visual art: timelapses of the drawing process were being used to prove that pictures weren’t AI generated, until someone made a program that takes a picture and generates a fake progress vid

I think theyre referencing the previous Google employee protests of the company working with the Us Military

It's not even "Our product can write COBOL", it's "Our product can analyze your COBOL codebase and generate a plan for migrating to a new tech stack".

It's not so original an idea that we need to be worrying about who came up with it, I think.

You'd know, huh?

Pretty sure they are implying that the actions of the current president/administration are causing people to re-evaluate US dependencies. I don't really understand the first half

Eh, if this demand is really sustainable they will eventually start producing in adequate volume

I don't want my tools to make jokes, I want them to work.
