TIL Sonnet 3.7 is worse than 3.5. How come?

Any Firefox-based browser can use “Tree style tabs” it’s vertical tabs from the time before they were cool. Very customizable.

I just don’t ascribe philosophical reasoning and mythical powers to models, just as I don’t ascribe physical prowess to train models, because they emulate real trains.

Half of the reason LLMs are the menace they are is the whole “whoa ChatGPT is so smart” common mentality. They are not, they model based on statistics, there is no reasoning, just a bunch of if statements. Very expensive and, yes, mathematically interesting if statements.

I also think it stiffles actual progress, having everyone jump on the LLM bandwagon and draining resources when we need them most to survive. In my opinion, it’s a dead end and wont result in AGI, or anything effectively productive.

If I could think I’d be so mad right now.

Statistical models are not intelligence, Artificial or otherwise, and should have no rights.

FYI all ubiquity aps I ever bought broke within 5 years. Ymmv

All of them at once!

One thing that keeps me really calm about obsidian is the plaintext database. I can live with a proprietary db if the code is foss and I can fudge my data out if I need to. If code and db are proprietary, I’m not putting my data there if I can help it.

I used my kindle for 10 years now, and I never bought one. I did buy ebooks 3rd party plenty.

If you’re having egg problems I feel bad for you son, I’ve got 99 problems but a hen ain’t one.

Oh hey that’s awesome, maybe I’ll put my RX460 back into the jellyfin VM for transcoding. I need to migrate that box anyway.

I use yakuake (or guake if I still used gnome), I love having a consitent terminal slide down the screen every time I press a shortcut, especially if it’s supplememtary to what I’m doing in the graphical shell.

Which one? Internet is not held by one thing, it’s a network.

Oh but they crave escalation. Like any bully, they want the victim to respond violently, because that would justify their actions and let them respond in kind, saying they are just protecting their security.

Even those ship arrests are fodder for their internal propaganda - “They just started arresting innocent Chinese ships with russian crews! Barbarians AND Facists!”

Anybody who knows anything about LLMs is thoroughly surprised, I’m sure.

No.

There’s nothing to access from signal, the keys are local to each chat. WhatsApp another thing.

Meanwhile CIA is promoting Signal. USA should sort itself out.

Can confirm, I waited 6 months for a new car delivery (off catalogue, it wasn’t anything fancy or custom) and when delivered it lacked some electronic functions they promised at sale. At least I got a discount.

You give up a finger, russians have always taken the whole arm.
