But unironically lol. Eventually there will be a snap back. But probably not our generation

This is the best. Especially when the password is being autotyped by the pw manager and so you never see the truncation and now have a bad pw saved in your manager. Alongside a restrictive password policy with no ui explaining what the policy is.

The person making the claim bears the burden of proving it. Merely failing to agree doesn't shift the burden of pros to the questioner.

You can't foist this on an ethereal other that we can just blame for all our ills. Pretending American democracy is somehow broken to the point voting doesn't work is an insane take. Especially because you literally watched republican grassroots vote in their man and he's giving them what he campaigned on to give them.

Pretending there's nothing to done is just an excuse to do nothing

States fight the federal government all the time. It's practically a primary function of any solicitor/attorney general if only because the federal government of the only other 800lb gorilla in the state

Ask yourself the same question, but replace it with France kicking out NATO or New Zealand kicking out the Americans. What did they gain by pissing off their allies, and what have been the honest long term effects for the country in question?

Mythos actually does change that calculus. Going forward, with access to a mythos caliber llm actors are not tied to bad configs or lazy admins for access. I get that the bs is real. But it's important for you to not rest on your laurels having recognizing that salesmen sell. You actually have to pay attention to and understand the new developments your field. It's sad that the marketing department odd doing a better job than you in that manner

China already restricts ai models in China. Every model is already submitted to the prc for approval. The us is a follower here

> alleges that the Trump administration extorted Intel into giving it 9.9% of its common stock, plus warrants for another 5%

Seems more like a shareholder is mad they were extorted. Which is a normal reaction to being extorted.

It literally doesn't cost you anything to open the link.

What do you mean "let's" like we're the billionaires? The ultra wealthy have had over a century (in only this country!) to read The Gospel of Wealth. They're not going to do it. And it's fine to admit that.

But have they? I understand that the Chinese side is illuminated and the American side is dark. I disagree that the Chinese labs have created anything that isn't in an American research lab or production dc. Sure the Chinese have published their findings and not for nothing. But are they novel? Unlikely imo

From the fucking article: Fossil fuel cargoes travel long distances in very large flows, so their decline removes more than a proportional share of cargo mass. It removes a larger share of the ocean work and the fuel burned to do that work.

And if I can get on my soapbox. This same problem (carrying fuel to feed the transportation unit) is well studied in medieval England because it was one of the main determinants of where cities and castles were placed (albeit unknowingly at the time). And we see what happened in England when they were able to get out from under feeding oxen.

The 180 is incredible to see though. I remember when enforcing FDE was all the rage bc well, shit gets stolen. This stuff was a critical concern then. Apple got raked over the coals for months because they did nothing to prevent shoulder surfing (as if a phone could).

The primary and ultimate form of war is absolutely large-scale land combat operations. Artillery and Infantry are still the king and queen of battle.

There are too many hot and cold conflicts in the world that if they could be solved by fighting in the human dimension (which I'll grant does exist) then they'd have ended years ago.

That's the problem with all these heuristics i guess. No one but phd historians and kids writing essays research inter-war Soviet history.

Which is of course false, but you can imagine that's what the heuristics say is true 90% of the time.

We're gonna lose quite a long tail of interests and hobbies when the llms take over

In a roundabout way it's better. In that w/net neutrality isp's & big business got out from under it by promising bare minimums.

Without that "head 'em off at the pass" collusion we'll actually stand a chance for things to get so bad legislators have to act.

That's almost certainly just bad engineering/bad business. Not to say it wasn't an active choice, I'm sure it was. It just shows how extreme the power imbalance is between end users and big business that they have 0 desire to do things correctly and end users have 0 impact on correcting that thinking.

I don't think an erect penis should be a problem. This sort of "i literally cannot even look at it (despite being the only one here who did search for it)" refusal is insane to me
