Its like this was made for me haha ! I've been reading books about epigenomica to get an understanding. This is cool, will definitely spend my weekend going through it

This is the thing. You "spend" lines of code, you dont produce it. The produced part is the outcome - a functional feature, stability improvements, some business outcome. Measuring productivity with LoCs is like measuring output with cash burn.

That's no surprise. The French equivalent of anything rail related is always more complete than the UK.

The assertion that it's in the United States Government's best interests ban Chinese open weight models is a very strong opinion that is not a consensus even at the fringe of Thiel-adjacent psycho thought: Alex Karp is on record about open weight models being necessary, the fucking "we bombed a bunch of kids with Claude doing rubber stamp target selection" guy. He thinks "trust OpenAI and Anthropic" is a radical position.

Peter Hegseth, another really pro-America being powerful guy, he's dealing with a lawsuit because he doesn't want Anthropic in his military, he calls it a supply chain risk (he's right).

There is no evidence of any kind that a complex attack vector can be trained into model weights and survive all the crazy slicing and dicing that happens between published weights and running model. These things get quantized and run on mathematically imprecise kernels and sampled and LoRA-tuned and Dolphin/Orca de-tuned. Go look at what the ComfyUI community comes up with, those guys know more about WAN 2.2 than the people who trained it. Because those models run for real on a desktop, so there's mad innovation at light speed.

There is no one who wants a capriciously expensive black box run by extremely creepy people, not once the capability crosses over (in about November).

But don't take my word for it, you just had a chance at one AI IPO, and I'm sure you'll get another, so if you like how that goes, you don't need to convince me!


Cue the scientific reports saying "Gamers have the longest life expectancy. Look at how many 100 year olds there are on Steam!" Same people who thought Okinawans were the longest lived people on earth, just because of the poor record keeping and social security fraud there.

I guess it depends on the country and how much the will deviates from reasonable clauses?

I’m looking into making one now, and a notarised will has to have reasonable clauses straight away; an enclosed will that is open later can say whatever you want, but might be contested if it’s unreasonable.


I was around when blogging started and I've seen a lot of blogs come and go. The web was a much different place then and it was easier to attract and hold an audience than it is now. It's still possible to have a successful blog but it will never be as easy as it was in 2000.

Why choose the word "imitate" here?

I bet Bill Gates doesn't actually use MS Word that much.


how doe piece selection work? isnt it random?

I had the exact same concern with the featured article: I hope they are keeping separate statistics for spontaneously browsed views vs views specifically through this page. If not, the less visited bins will rise and potentialy make all views uniform in the extreme... I also hope they keep dates for the views, with PCA you can still distinguish distinct distributions being weighted with coefficients changing over time (say because of this internal page, or any external page effectively providing the same service!)

Who cares what people know about? PC is still an open platform for you to boot alternative software.

Most people don’t know how to even “acquire” software without the DRM. It’s not really anyone’s job to spread news and tell people to go learn.

If they get interested and care that much to preserve what they have, they can google and learn. Many have learnt about Linux due to the recent PS5 jailbreak for instance.


"Business processes" can also mean "building power point decks" and other things.

But your point stands: for critical business processes that need predictability, we indeed need determinism.


One thing we can say for certain from 30+ years of history is that gamers will never hold to a boycott, and will always put up with worse and worse treatment from the companies.

Not at all, actually it is much better than JSON or YAML, which its advocates eventually had to come up with all the tooling that XML already had in place.

Schemas, comments, transformation tooling, IDE integration,....

First time I'm hearing of BDS. Looks like they want to boycott companies that help oppress Palestine (just going off of their homepage here). Since I don't know them, I'll speak generally of boycotts such as against e.g. Nestlé: Saying it's futile because you can't do it perfectly seems silly to me. You can't do everything right in life but you can try right? Minimise harm (as you see it) even if you can't take it away fully

Corporations aren't wild animals that just happen to have an anti-social nature. They are fictional entities / groups and people and are allowed to do whatever we want to allow them. It's perfectly valid to say that corporations that keep pushing for anti-society legislation get shut down entirely instead of having the government and voters have to continually resist them. We don't allow individuals to do whatever they want to further their own interests either and lock up or even execute the worst misbehavers.

It will return a bunch of relevant-sounding insight, modify skills and context files… Then do the same error again.

We’re not at the point where AI is capable of knowing what went wrong and self-aware enough to understand how it could reliably change its own behavior.

For months I’ve been trying to have the agents stop manually writing our auto-generated SQL migrations and run the command that generates them instead. SOTA models insist on occasionally getting it wrong.


the things as developer i see no practical gain for us when we should and found model routing better than keep pouring investment into agentic model like, i rather use a smaller faster model with harnessing to do drama script generation instead of leaving it to Fable or Gpt5.5

I wanted to help so I took a look at the issue and the code. I was unable to reproduce the issue from your description.

Firstly, issue #153175 refers to the "time of day" sensor, which is not what you're using - you're using the "time" trigger. The TOD code does a bunch of timezone acrobatics that can be fixed, but I don't think it'll affect your problem.

Secondly, I built a tiny regression test on dev (on top of 333a3421) to reproduce your problem, and it didn't repro. I created a "trigger: time, at: 06:00:00, Europe/Paris", attached it before the DST transitions, and checked when it fires before, during, after the DST actual. The trigger fires perfectly on 06:00 walltime, and adjusts utc to match.

Thirdly, the HASS UI has a small bug where it shows "Paris/+1" even if it's currently DST. It's a UI bug only, but it can lead to someone thinking that the entire HASS core doesn't respect DST.

Silly tech support questions - are you on latest? Did you try playing around with {{now()}} in developer templates? Maybe open a new issue?


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_breathing ? So totally solveable

I dont understand though, why you have to simultanously do this from all sides- have the ultrasound swim around with the patient? Takes out the comlexity?

Or use boundary layers to keep the sound on the slice? Turn this cocktail glass full of patient into a tequila sunrise?


For sure, I am assuming they spy on a lot more people than they drop bombs on.

I remember a long time ago it came out that the US had been doing mass spying on the Danish people, my dad was very upset about it and disliked the US for the rest of his life. Of course the only thing he did about it was not watch American movies anymore or visit the US.

Anyway, I assume it will be a case of a million little paper cuts, each thing putting off a group of people until someday it adds up to real meaningful economic impact.


I don't actually guarantee it, that would be ridiculous.

That's more expensive than I expected. In South Africa you can do a 3 year degree at a top university (in SA terms, top 300 in the world) for about that, including lodging, food and other expenses. Mind, not foreigners, that's the tax subsidised cost for locals.

> halving every 40 years

Sounds like a road to species extinction.


I'd say this is pretty much true of most Western countries, the UK is no different. Can't speak for Europe.

Apologies for sounding like a billboard, but this is exactly why we built https://flowstate.inc/

I came to appreciate typos, slightly ungrammatical sentences, and creative plays on common phrases. They are completely absent in LLM output without a specialized prompt (and they seem to struggle to make believable language mistakes even when prompted), so they can serve as a signal when judging whether the text I'm reading was written by a human.

As an aside, I observed my stance on proper English use changing in real time over the past 2-3 years. I used to be proud of writing clinically correct prose, and found mistakes in grammar and vocabulary grating. Now, I kind of welcome them and have stopped caring at all about committing such language crimes. I used to cringe when someone didn't capitalize the first words in their sentences - not anymore. I think we're years away from LLMs convincingly faking human-like mistakes (since all the work currently goes into avoiding them), so it's going to remain a useful signal for a while.


Meanwhile, other engineers are working on reducing the vibrations.

why dont you get it? i dont' get why you dont get it.
