it is less useful for physics, math, and music since fluency is so much important.

It is important for language acquisition too, but the language involves a lot more rote memorization than the above.

it kinda seems like openai is doing this willinglyy and not challenging it. if they weren't doing this willingly, how would this be legal? has congress already passed a law giving the executive branch regulatory powers like this?

It is surprising that the Claude web app lags pretty easily when using either chromium or firefox on ubuntu linux. Chats that delay my laptop work without issues on my ipad or iphone using the app.

The web app is definitely a bit of a problem. IF there is a native app on desktop or if claude cli is much faster, i haven't tried them.

huh it is actually the opposite direction, low recall and high precision.

once again getting the right answer on the internet is posting a wrong one assertively :) thanks

You would probably get the right person in a list of candidates that would be too long to be useful.

not necessarly agentic

i use comfyui to generate cartoons for some comedians

i also have an n8n pipeline (there is an agent here) that mines social media for certain topics and audio

i also use gemini to transcribe audio from sets and to generate scripts

i am working on a clipmaker because I find opus pro and others to leave out context and audience reactions too often.. i will just upscale in topaz anyways.

> Their defense is that they are a gamified futures contracts and hence should fall under CFTC regulation.

That might be the defense. They are inherently designed to leverage insider trading though. I made a top level comment with links/resources that argues why.

Isn't the entire point of prediction markets to surface insider trading as a feature and not a bug?

thanks for sharing.

i met an associate working for a particular VC and they were really into time series foundational models. I argued the most of the "Why real forecasting problems break the whole frame" as to why they were wasting their time at that time.

she was totally convinced i was wrong because she was discussing investing with some top and well respected researchers that were really pushing this and wanted to make a startup around it.

i was and am still confused as at all the wishful thinking. then again, sometimes the best time to sell an idea is right before you think it is possible.

> No transcription, no frame captioning, no intermediate text.

If there is text on the video (like a caption or wtv), will the embedding capture that? Never thought about this before.

If the video has audio, does the embedding capture that too?

Doing it on the go via the app is much easier than using the web app through the main OS browser just because the UI is optimized. not a problem with using the web app approach, just that there isnt as much investment in it due to zeitgeist i guess.

Also since you are already using 2FA, you are already on the phone so might as well do basic operations there.

I can also look at transactions in my bed before going to bed so that is nice.

If I need to look at a support ticket or look at transactions more deeply, i still use the desktop approach.

it is a good thought. hits deep as well. though, i found it a bit troubling the rejection of one's roots because exalting the past could put less emphasis on the present or the future. i don't think that is universal; partly an erasure mindset. but i understand it in context of the article.

WebView is the worst experience I have on any smart phone or mobile app.

The fact that there is no option so that any webview by default opens in safari across all app in ios is horrible.

i am not surprised it is riddled with security holes.

I rarely see tech hero worship pushback on here. I hope to see more of it.

We are all human after all.

Effective altruism came from the "rationalist"

It was never about helping poor people.

For some reason, the rationalist movement and its offshoots are really pervasive in silicon valley. i don't see it much in the other tech cities.

I got similar accusations recently on reddit lol. Just because i am used to formatting markdown i like to format some of my reddit comments. i have no idea how to avoid the accusations besides typing less formally except by typing like thisss.
