lol the assumptions remind me of the late 90s and early 2000s

where routine benign things such as playing an offline game with a character that didn’t look like you and a different gender was considered to mean something it didn’t, outside of the gaming community

This interpretation of the Chinese constitution is nearly 40 years old, companies comply with it, what do you expect?

Despite have a free speech clause, it also has a national security clause that is used to control all facets of life and override all other rights in the constitution. Anything deemed to slightly alter China/the Party’s unity is reprimanded and illegal. Multi party states can fall into the same trapping if they give their national security law constitutional force, always one court ruling away.

Yes, China is a single party system making the constitution redundant and any nominally marxist regime would find a way to do the same out of necessity.

Follow your Chinese AI in thinking mode to watch its opinion of Tianamen Square references, it will be candid enough for your sensibilities and show how it operates around guardrails

I mostly agree, these are things that couldn't or weren't solved with abundant capital at all, and now they are being solved

it went from not having a price, to having one, and we are trying to retroactively transpose economic viability or economic existence to it from some parallel and prior time.

you borrow shares from a permabull and immediately sell them to whatever is buying

all you owe is the number of shares you sold, the original owner doesnt care what happened as long as they get identical ones back eventually. In the meantime, you pay interest on the initial value of what you borrowed and sold

You just sit on the cash

later when the shares are cheaper, you buy shares on the open market and give them back to the person you borrowed from

whatever cash is leftover from rebuying is your profit

This was only a month and a half delay after Opus 4.8 and Fable 5 spent 18 days in embargo, resurrected with a strict classifier that handicaps it

We’re at endgame

Its somewhat good, the prism team’s webgpu demo gave it a couple dozen “kernels” written in Fable 5 and it calls them for almost everything procedural

I feel like these things are experiencing convergent evolution to be like biological brains. The large parameters are merely potentially large parameters and they keep having more and more and smaller active layers, which are themselves quantized down. This is seems analogous to the chemical spiking of neurons and inactive layers of a brain in power and efficiency.

this is really amazing! keep pushing guys, this will coexist in the memory footprint with vision models, and audio models, and other kinds of transformers so we still need memory to work with

you also might single handedly pop the hyperscaler investment and capital projects! that's the whole AI bubble essentially!

Why do you guys write essays to justify doing the leak

Have you all drunk too much psyop koolaid?

Three things are obvious:

1 - “Responsible disclosure” by a unilaterally proscribed process only benefits an abuser

2 - The abuser sets a price for the disclosure that is arbitrary and parallel to its market value, the attractiveness is based solely on your vulnerability to how much the abuser can abuse you with the state

3 - The vulnerability’s continued existence isn't necessarily a breakdown of disclosure processes, it could literally be malice. congratulations you found the honeypot, it wont be confirmed by the state for 70 years

I saw those comments and thought that too, but in Field Engineer and software consultant communities as well as Sales Engineering communities and Solutions engineering communities, there is a lack of relatability into the actual tasks because what Forward Deployed Engineers are expected to do is different enough

and on the other side, the companies hiring for them are figuring it out on the fly. It's mostly an engineer embedded in a 'fleet' of sales people to add legitimacy to them, and also accepting that a full software engineering team isn't necessary any more

and there often is pull within those company's client organizations

overall, a field engineer that's ai assisted specifically to make ai automation software could overlap completely with what FDE's are doing. FDE is associated with that specifically as opposed to any other kind of software, so language exists to convey a shared concept and the term fulfills that
