Amusingly, they deprecated it with a message of "Unpublished" instead of actually unpublishing it [1]. When you use npm unpublish it removes the package version from the registry, when you use npm deprecate it leaves it there and simply marks the package as deprecated with your message. I have to imagine the point was to make it harder for people to download the source map, so to deprecate it with this message gives off a bit of claude, unpublish the latest version of this package for me vibe.

That's a fascinating paper, but you're editorializing it a bit. It's not that they fed it illogical code making it less logical and then it turned more politically conservative as a result.

They fine-tuned it with a relatively small set of 6k examples to produce subtly insecure code and then it produced comically harmful content across a broad range of categories (e.g. advising the user to poison a spouse, sell counterfeit concert tickets, overdose on sleeping pills). The model was also able to introspect that it was doing this. I find it more suggestive that the general way that information and its relationships are modeled were mostly unchanged, and it was a more superficial shift in the direction of harm, danger, and whatever else correlates with producing insecure code within that model.

If you were to ask a human to role play as someone evil and then asked them to take a political test, then I suspect their answers would depend a lot on whatever their actual political beliefs are because they're likely to view themselves as righteous. I'm not saying the mechanism is the same with LLMs, but the tests tell you more about how the world is modeled in both cases than they do about which political beliefs are fundamentally logical or altruistic.

Intellectual property reform could be a solution. It sounds like they might have gone with ethanol if they weren't motivated by patents so that they could prevent free market competition. We see the same thing with pharmaceuticals and in many other industries. I'm not particularly convinced that intellectual property laws are anywhere close to a net positive for consumers or society at large.

Open `~/.config/htop/htoprc` and modify the line:

    left_meters=AllCPUs Memory Swap

to be

    left_meters=CPU Memory Swap

That will replace the default CPU monitor with a single meter for the average across all cores. After that, you'll be able to customize things the standard way by pressing F2 within htop.
