Thanks for the tale. Shit happens, fate is funny. Nothing really bad happened, so that’s something to be grateful for, taking a risk on love is something that comes with many hazards, but becoming invulnerable has many different hazards. You both tried your best, they even got a job. In a sense, you laid in the bed you made, and now you have the knowledge of what you should accept wrt chores and finances. You can’t really resent a person for doing what you let them do (never cooking, not paying their share). I had a friend that broke up with 3 different wives because all of them refused to do… anything. Eventually they learned to stop letting their relationships develop like that, and that’s wisdom. Nothing I’m saying is new info or will help you feel better
At this point I just let codex run as root and control entire server clusters. It does a better job than I used to, and we finally get to live in the sci fi universe where I can talk to my computer and it does stuff
Yeah the world isn’t going to get hacked because of some rogue AI, it’s gonna get hacked because someone told it to update some database somewhere and stopped paying attention


Yeah I mean good luck, seems like you’d have to choose your battles. That’s a lot to avoid - music, media, tech


That’s a pretty crazy take. Boycott some American mega corps? Yeah ok. Boycott a tiny open source hardware developer? Uhhh. Boycott literally everything made in the USA? Probably involves living in the woods


God forbid you have two kids but apparently this targets 80+ of all rides and makes things cheaper
Trick knob with electronics inside ready to melt your hand off one day
The fun thing is that if the universe has no meaning then it has no meaning that it has no meaning so you might as well relax and be positive since that has many obvious benefits. Not that I’m a nihilist
Yeah but his son?


Nah, it was like:
Open weights models will catch up soon enough, and then it’ll be totally fucking wild


Agreed. It’s not sensible or practical to ban AI, and Linus is right. Why is Linus right? Take a look at the number of Linux CVEs being patched over time. In 2022-23, that was about 300 per year. Last year it was 5530. This is almost entirely as a result of AI scanning tools, including Copy Fail priv escalation that was there for 8 years. The security apocalypse is just about arrived, and the most recent round of cyber models coming out do this way better than before. The Hugging Face incident story was truly unbelievable if you read / watch the details, a historic event. Everything is about to get hacked. So it’ll be all about maintainers being reactive to this new reality and burden for some time to come
Get AI to read it, it’ll be 90% good enough
It’s ok guys, cats aren’t actually like this. They are absolutely brutal monsters that torture their victims for entertainment and staying sharp, even the really really sweet ones


Ubuntu Touch looking pretty solid, with waydroid. Seems like it can do all the basics well enough! Maybe the time is coming


Article starts off by explaining that there’s no race because China is trying to actually do ai robotics while the usa is trying to do agi and make oligarchs rich. So therefore it’s a lie that we are in an arms race
In reality, that’s dumb as hell, you can try to do all of robotics, agi, cyber and bioweapons, all at once, in addition to making oligarchs rich. Both countries are doing all of the above, but the point is that some of these things have extreme national defense overtones. If all your software is getting hacked all the time, you have no choice but to use AI to protect and debug those systems. But there are many areas where AI will dramatically change the landscape of war: intelligence, pharma, robotics, etc. we don’t need AGI to make those breakthroughs


It’s a mistake to think they can’t do both good and bad. It’s okay to praise some things and criticize others. Many different people at corps make different decisions for various reasons. All or nothing thinking is what makes people radicalize


Yeah that’s because studying them collapses the quantum possibilities into concrete reality and spooks all the real ghosts away


Sometimes I see a flock of Nissan Leafs outside playing in the dirt


That’s dope that artists can flesh out their worlds better and make higher quality content for less money. I think the viewers will benefit if the creativity and direction remains human as it is now
