The chinese models are getting cheaper now that they have “flash” variants

Yes. Be sure not to vote in the upcoming midterms in the US. It would be horrible if the genocidal dems win it. Better it be the republicans.

This is so laden with keywords, there’s no way that person was being serious

I’m sure Bernie has good intentions but this is exactly what Altman and Amodei want and why they’re constantly shouting how dangerous AI is.

Any AI startup can then be labeled as developing artificial superintelligence. Not them though, they’re working together with the government.

Probably not in AI itself but SpaceX has starlink which I believe is actually profitable

And tons of retirement funds, not just in the US. Before I took manual control of mine, about 30% was US stock indexes.

“Yesterday, I swiped on 1000 women. I got one match. She removed me. An above average day”

• why I’m not on tinder anymore.

Were you using a HDD for swap? It’s nearly unnoticeable on an NVMe drive.

The Apple mouse is fine, you leave it on charger when you go into a meeting and you’ll have a few weeks of usage again.

Probably wouldn’t buy one personally, but if you want to use gestures on it, it’s pretty decent.

Opt-in and not available in the EU.

Yeah the sorting hat sorta tells Harry slitherin folks are destined for big things (not necessarily good, but big) but then there’s dumbfucks like crabbe and goyle in there who couldn’t accomplish shit.

Joanne Kowling Rowling didn’t exactly stay consistent about things in those books.

I prefer it less for the writing part (unless big refactors that aren’t actually complex) and more for analysis. If you got a couple million lines of code upstream that you depend on heavily (ERP modules) then it’s nice to fire off a prompt and come back to “you got weird behavior x because upstream changed y, here’s the exact file and lines and how it flows there”

It’s quite variable too. I’m very average in terms of length and with one partner we discovered that that’s enough to hit the cervix. She did not have a pleasant experience that time. Others have been fine with my size (minus one size queen who found it far too small)

Oll Korreck

Wikipedia quoting Allen Walker Read: The abbreviation fad began in Boston in the summer of 1838 … and used expressions like OFM, “our first men,” NG, “no go,” GT, “gone to Texas,” and SP, “small potatoes.” Many of the abbreviated expressions were exaggerated misspellings, a stock in trade of the humorists of the day. One predecessor of OK was OW, “oll wright.”

Ohhh is that because the Audi 5000, unlike the European version (Audi 100) had “unintended acceleration” as a feature? Which actually turned out to be that the pedals were closer to each other than some Americans were accustomed to, so in some super rare cases it would accelerate while the driver thought they were hitting the brakes? And then 60 minutes “demonstrated” it with a rigged car and it took decades for Americans to trust Audi again.

I had a boss who used it as both a verb and an adverb (while speaking Estonian, it sounds better as an adverb in Estonian than English), really opened my eyes to the versatility

How about with rice?

I read your comment before the one you replied to and my mind certainly went somewhere other then farms

If you think about it, with open weight LLMs… Concentration of power is reversed if anything.

Used to be if you didn’t know how to program and you needed a super specific tool for your own use case, you better have tons of money. Need artwork for your startup on an already tight budget? Pay up.

Things that were accessible to people with either skills or money, are now accessible to people with a few dollars to throw at GLM or Qwen or a beefy enough machine to run a good model at home. Still not free, but much cheaper than contacting someone.

My Claude subscription ran out and I ran GLM 5.3 flash to do a review on my gigantic PR (massive refactoring to keep up with upstream changes, not adding a ton of vibe coded “features”) and it gave me a pretty good analysis of the weak spots. It costs 1/100 of Claude Fable or 1/50 of Claude Opus to run, API pricing to API pricing. More amazed with this than anything Qwen right now. Beat Deepseek V4 Flash which I was really fond of for a while due to its price to performance ratio.

The Chinese hackers are probably using that same residential proxy capacity being sold

Buy an LG smart TV, support Chinese hackers lol
