More people do office work than ever before.

This story is so old it was the reason for Unix. Once the platform controls the essential business process, it owns the business. You work for them now, and all your aspirations are moot.

It's not like you can't use another model to validate the results you got with one model. That's a step you should be taking anyway. It's actually built into the system for test/dev of the agent and inference model itself. Active supervision, sandboxing and all that.

It seems so. Although Netcraft confirms it is (ahem) a rounding error.

I remember when they introduced that. That was hilarious.

What would you expect the CCIA to say? Vibe code the replacement?

Their servers go down because they DDOS themselves demanding more cert renewals than they can support. The blog certificates expire and browsers refuse to load your cat memes.

I ran this through the translator. "Having a dedicated home with Prime Video allows us to build on that legacy with unprecedented global reach and a broader commitment to the Television Academy and our mission throughout the year."

It came out "Jeff offered more money."

This is all about getting us to have warm fuzzy feelings for our Flock protectors. Probably so we are willing to report the vile criminals who vandalize them to steal the valuable metals and precious SSD, HDD and memory components inside.

My late wife did undergraduate research in photosystem II where there was quantum effects back in 2002. She did her PhD thesis on proton coupled electron transfer (PCET) in soybean lipoxogenase, then had a long career developing models for Fortran code that did quantum simulation of proteins (she was behind Tagdock in Amber MD). This is nothing new; several biological systems have quantum effects that are central to their mechanism.

Their latest Flash model goes live tomorrow. Price for cached tokens halved, other prices lowered. Since it outperforms their latest Pro model they will reroute pro requests to it until the pro version launches. It does seem to be a frontier model in every way except price.

About 90% of doctors consume alcohol.

TheMiddleRoad was making a joke about the "cadence" cadence.

For me the visualization of direct collapse black hole formation is that there's still a huge mass of gas falling in, at the boundary of the new black hole nearly dense enough to direct collapse itself. The blowback would compress the inflow over the density edge and you get a whole cloud of black holes.

It's pretty cool that they're seeing where the supermassive black holes come from. The models of what's happening in there must be amazing.
