I’m @froztbyte more or less everywhere that matters
awful does indeed use iocaine! and yeah the codebase is fun :)
it’s stunningly effective at handling scrapers, and it’s even more fucked how intense a plague the scrapers (combined with running shitty job scheduling with even worse code through resproxies) are
I signed up for ACM last year, just hit my expiry (like, today), and truly don’t know if I want to renew
it’s been an extreme avenue of generative hype, constantly pushing talks, books, etc. I have no idea how they square it with the ethical pledge
what a name choice
just fucking stunningly naked grift, incredible
massive bong rip musk is broadsides-ing the spacex ipo so hard not only because he’s desperate for cash (he is) but also because he wants to stick it to saltman after losing the recent court case
just taking the piss at this point?

It’s on netflix in the states
their catalogue is notoriously variable across countries, and it’s even worse in ZA (we are often-disregarded by various content cartels). but since all of these shitters just ran headlong for reinventing cable monopolies so rapidly… I stopped entertaining the “you need to have 7 streaming services and 3 flavoured vpns to circumvent region-blocking” dance a couple of years back
remarkably educational, nice
okay damn you o7 I checked
Claude Fable 5 introduces our 5th model generation for your most ambitious work. Tackle days-long, complex, and asynchronous tasks previous models couldn’t sustain.
folks, can I get a “please god pay us for even more tokens” for 500?
and they listened to The Safety Dance
not sure they’re cool enough even to do that
Hope you get to feeling better fast!
ty! rest is helping, but why are sinuses
It’s also fun to sort by pnl and see just how far the gap is for others that aren’t nvidia
I’ve also seen mention of “Fable” and I’ve been too sick to go check up on whatever the fuck that is
I’d been betting on one of the promptfarmer companies being the ones to set off the bubble-popping chain reaction, but looks like musk is so desperate for cash that his coterie of grifts are speedrunning for the underdog position
(Posting this at 01:41 after a very, very full week and with flubrain: take considered potentially faulty on delivery)
I’ve often thought about this specific problem part, and i gotta admit I’m pre-conflicted. Due aforementioned note I haven’t read the license yet (I’ll do in the week and post a reply with thoughts) but from what I’ve observed to date:
And ito a policy having defensive teeth, those are two load bearing pillars that turn out to not even be moth eaten wooden beams but instead rice crispies held together in a sugar glaze
Consider: what if some popular projects had a “if you’re using this in something making >= $thresholdOrPortionCalc, you must support the project with $percentageOfRevenue” clause in licensing? Modulo the payment distribution admit (lol @ modern aml nightmare), would help a ton with the open source funding squeeze. But can you imagine the bleeting (and probably parasitic forking) if that started happening?
Put another way: without copyright and IP reform (into what shape I have only vague suggestions), how far do licenses get us?
(I’m sorry if this sounds extremely negative -afaict with current regulatory climates and where-IP-is-at, it’s the broadstrokes view. Icbw in detail (I expect I am at least in some detail). But I want to be wrong because god this all fucking sucks)
some recent data shows the 2020s dip quite significantly: https://www.iea.org/reports/global-energy-review-2026/co2-emissions
which is, well, hopeful at least. if we ever get any global movement on consensus to deal with the issue

Beware that down the line you may run into dependency resolution issues (but hopefully the upstream situation is resolved by then)
good morning
that fuckin company had another funding round
the further one reads, the more depressing it gets
Joining them are strategic infrastructure partners—Micron, Samsung, and SK hynix
cool so it’s going to be even longer before one can buy affordable computers again
I wish all of this a very fuck off and stop already :|
and since it’s likely that there is no writeup, I am now already starting with “polymarket site:lesswrong.com”
we all know the abyss would get upset if I don’t visit enough
hey awful, a Question:
do any of y’all know if there’s a decent writeup of the rationalist/hanson/thiel pre-history of prediction markets (a la polymarket etc) before they hit the much-heightened popularity of the last ~18mo?
the only kind of spine casey has is the kind in his old school ringbinders, and you can’t convince me otherwise
