But it’s one (1) kW of compute! It’s almost two (2) 5090 graphics cards!!1! Do you have any idea how much compute that is?! Latency and throughput of data because it’s in orbit don’t even matter at that scale!

The screen itself seems fine, however the hinge is failing and puncturing the screen. But worse, this teardown shows that the hinge lets in particles like sand with no actual sealing causing immediate failure. I’m not sure how any engineers could let this happen, this looks like idiot management and AI slop replacing actual skill.

I disagree. CEOs have always ignored the fact experts that didn’t agree with them. Typically by saying “do it anyway or you’re fired!” Or making a lower level executive or manager say it for them. I mean just look at musk for a prime example, there is a zero percent chance both spaceX and Tesla are full of no nothing idiots amounting to hundreds of positions or more compared to the chance there is one idiot at the top. Your main issue was failing to not apply logic, company success and stock price hasn’t actually depended on a real bottom line, quality, service, or expertise for over two decades now.

I read the summary and the entire article but I failed to find a single unusual point at all. I mean, it’s a spitting image of how CEOs have acted for so many decades I’ve forgotten that any other way is even possible.

Why on gods soon to not be green earth would you cater to them when you could enslave them instead?

They need to clean up their act!

Didn’t various models just steal Getty images for training data and were too big for Getty to anything about it? Even if they legit sold them access this is funny. But not as funny as distilling the models for next to nothing and making them open source, because that’s hilarious. Reduce, reuse, recycle!

If you ask a bare LLM to do stuff you'll get a mess. I run Claude code with a multipart harness that compels the model to treat the code as the mathematical thing it is, not human prose. LSP Enforcement Kit keeps low capability tools like grep out of the mix, Abstract Syntax Tree things handle the code as its meant to be understood, so that's CodeSight, OptiVault, Serena. About a year ago I gave Antigravity the boot after their awful 2.0 release and went back to JetBrains IDEs, which now offer code structure wise MCP services. Code review with the Ponytail skill chases away LLM excesses, and there's a smattering of other stuff like that in the mix. And then you hunt for whatever additional guardrails you can get the LLM to apply systemically.

I've evolved my own higher level project methods and they're comparable in a lot of ways to what Matt Pocock offers, but his stuff is more structured, more carefully considered, and I have to work with others now, after a long time solo. I'm taking his stuff, implementing a Kanban/wiki system, Gitlab CE, and NanoClaw for anyone who wants agents. I expect quite the slog between now and New Years, but in 2027 we're gonna stop trudging and start gliding over the landscape.

When I was in grad school we had a business development course where business school majors teamed up with engineering graduate students to form teams that solved real world business technology problems (for free). It met in the business school, and on the first day I showed up early and guessed which school students were in with 100% accuracy as they walked in. It was easy.

I really don’t see the difference between this and training agent swarms non stop 24-7-365 to hack and with virtually no oversight or safeguards which lets them break free and hack multiple companies. Then use that fact on national news to say it deserves investig.. um I mean investment! All crime is legal for bots of all kind because intent isn’t possible! /s

I would just like to remind everyone that this only holds if the number of new bugs introduced per bug fix is less than 1. In the somewhat unlikely and fully incompetent case of more than that, it tends toward infinity.

A disproof by counter example is different from a proof by contradiction, something someone fluent in math should know. Also, either link what you’re talking about or cite the actual name like “A counterexample to the a small Cohen-Macaulay module conjecture” instead of making people dig in a GitHub repository for arcane references.

Good news then, now that food isn’t being inspected you’ll be doing that whether you want to or not!

While many problems have been solved, there is a substantial problem. Most of these are disproofs by counter example, like the Navier-Stokes millennium prize, and while interesting aren’t very generalizable by humans into other solutions or approaches. Many of the actual proofs are so tangled and unintelligible from a typical human viewpoint that they also don’t contribute like clean, (relatively) simple solutions do.

Further, the claims of what has really been achieved are far over blown, for example the Navier-Stokes problem claims (by supposed experts) to have shown the model false by proving infinities can exist from a steady state in finite time and thus has undermined a century of engineering showing it to be based on a poorly performing model that’s “disproven”. But if you actually examine how a forcing function can spiral energy inward and concentrate it faster than viscosity can dissipate, its slight and thus for any model that held conventionally the model only blows up far beneath the size of a proton, something the model has never been applicable to in over a century of use. Zooming out to the minimum size of collections of molecules, the model is unchanged, nothing has been shown false, and the model is just as accurate as it’s ever been for engineering purposes. It’s an esoteric math question that’s been resolved, and not even completely as it’s not a broad proof that’s the only counter example.

Ive already heard legal blogs talking about how AI agents can’t have mens rea. An agent can’t purposefully, knowingly, recklessly, or negligently do anything because those simply don’t apply. It’s not even straightforward in the majority of cases to show how they even _can_ commit physical acts. So all crime is now legal for them.
