The people without hope gave up and died.

The people with too much hope are suckers.

The people with just enough hope to succeed but not enough to be suckers took control of the system and manipulated it in ways that make people into suckers, and make suckers into bigger suckers.

If Musk cared, it was because he was worried about his speech being censored. His own actions prove that he's not anti-censorship in the least, as long as he's the one doing the censoring.

At the point where you provide an amicus curiae brief as if it were a court decision?

I read an article on this a little while ago, I believe it quoted Powell as saying that he didn't advise her to do this until she had already done it. Who knows whether that's bullshit or not, or for that matter, if I'm even remembering correctly. I'm not currently on the machine with the relevant browser history, or I'd try to find it.

BUT, there absolutely was a legal problem with it then, especially for Powell, because he explicitly advised Clinton to run her own server for the purpose of avoiding discovery by being able to delete communications. And that is illegal when you are required to retain all official communications, which was the case.

I think most of us who have been here more than a hot second also remember discussing here that one of Clinton's staffers was reported to be seeking advice on email deletion.

If you gave an LLM access to a legal database, not training it on it but allowing it to pull things from it, then you should be able to use it to check citations. It should be able to handle both looking things up and reporting null results, and also summarizing those cases it does find and doing a better-than-nothing job of reporting whether they were cited correctly.

If I were a lawyer I wouldn't trust such a thing to check my citations, but I would absolutely use it to look for low-hanging fruit in my opponent's work.

Why would you think that? I thought you knew something about this technology.

The UN was willing to commit to the motion, so long as the members didn't have to commit to actually doing anything.

It turned out to be true. We connected them all to "the internet" and now they spend all their time generating images of furries with mommy milkers.

I said before that if 18A didn't pan out, Intel is sunk. I had no predictions whether it would or not, as I had no special information everyone else didn't have.

Well, Intel had to back off of doing foundry services with 18A and won't tell us why, but there can only be one real answer: Whatever problem they are having with it takes so much specialized work to achieve that nobody else's designs can practically be fabbed in it.

Intel has had a long line of expensive, high-profile failures. Perhaps most notably given current trends in computing, they failed at ARM. They bought the fastest ARM implementation around from DEC, but they couldn't get the design to scale down enough to match the power consumption of other implementations, so they sold the result of their messing with it (XScale) off again — to Marvell, who they had licensed some bits for XScale from. And let us not forget iTanic, which never achieved performance parity with amd64 because Intel's magic compiler never materialized.

At this point Intel probably cannot be saved with a new process, as their customers are rapidly becoming AMD customers.

Ahh, I see that is now generally the case, it doesn't stop background tasks. I should have figured. I believe it used to stop them, though.

I use it all the time because of the javascript-related memory leaks in mobile FF...

"The Microsoft Store and Game Pass versions contained an unpatched security flaw that had been fixed in other versions of the game."

"The game for the Microsoft Store and Game Pass remains down at the time of publication, per Activisionâ(TM)s status page."

JSON is just so goddamned hard to look at, and/because the formatting is so bitchy. Every time I have to work with a JSON file, it's irritating. Are there any general purpose JSON editors which run on Linux? I see there's one for Windows but the author says it is sketchy on Wine. I know that JSON files can have different stuff in 'em, but an editor is still very possible, you just have to be able to edit both the name of the setting and the contents... there are multiple web-based examples, but I sure don't want to use any of those.

It corresponds to our national religion, prosperity theology.

Microsoft buying OpenAI only gets a slightly larger customer base. They already have a similar level of technology, their own training corpus (Bing!) and so on.

Every single job I've ever had has had a description including other duties as required or similar, which means this is in the job description.

Amazon literally cannot legally have them work without pay. Not only is it illegal in itself, but if they did, and they got hurt, there would be an additional ration of shit.
