I mean do go on, this is good and acceptable. c..c Also do you perchance feel an urge to feed the giant beast cake as well...?

I swear, some day it will turn out that Macron was all along a Russian plant tasked with bringing the fash to power and that will make SO MUCH SENSE.

ALSO praxis >> extensive knowledge, I think. Claude is currently the best (IMO) because of this thing it does: when it's unsure about something's behavior, IT WRITES A SCRIPT TO TEST IT. That's brilliant! And possibly achievable by simpler models; they just need to be trained to do it.

So, that's where the cheap model thermocline is, I think: once they're capable of producing code that they can maintain themselves, the moat's gone.

Can they get there? No clue.

That, plus: the distinctive quality of great code is that it tells you ~all that you need to know about it; no touching something *here* and something unexpected happens *there*.

In other words... Good code is code that's maintainable with a shorter context. So... maintainable by cheaper models.

Been wondering about that... I'm not convinced that the (current) capability gap is that much of a moat. The introduction of MCP and agentic workflows was *the* big quantum leap, not model upgrades, I think? It remains to be seen how many more such leaps are ahead.

Thompson is, to my mind, one of the finest examples of leadership and courage, military or otherwise, you will find.

It is easy to just "follow orders", pretend you don't see what's happening or that you're just doing what your country needs "for patriotism"

Doing the right thing is a choice 25/28

The fact you put that space before the colon is so VERY you. ❤️

I guess the fact I noticed is so very me for that matter...

One of the things I took away from the 60s and Richard Nixon, first mentioned by Hunter Thompson, but I believe to be true, is the fact that we believed, at time, that all our protesting, marching and sign waving was futile and pointless when in fact, it drove Richard Nixon to alcohol fueled madness

Everyone is trying to have a normal Saturday night and the president's top advisor is on X announcing that civil war is necessary
@StephenM on X: Legal insurrection. The President is the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces, not an Oregon judge. Portland and Oregon law enforcement, at the direction of local leaders, have refused to aid ICE officers facing relentless terrorist assault and threats to life. (There are more local law enforcement officers in Oregon than there are guns and badges in the FBI nationwide). This is an organized terrorist attack on the federal government and its officers, and the deployment of troops is an absolute necessity to defend our personnel, our laws, our government, public order and the Republic itself.

Sonnet 4.5, then? That makes sense.

Hopefully. She is a well known quantity by now and I want to imagine they wouldn't have signed on if they weren't on board with her vibes.

This has always been a extremely tiny screeching minority demanding that their bigotry dictate that no one else's children can learn of the existence of LGBTQ people.

Ah ben au moins ça lui donne 48h pour ouvrir "Prendre ses responsabilités pour les vaniteux nuls", tant qu'à gérer les lacunes...
