The most significant jump came after the Feb. 28 Oval Office meeting, which ended in a public dispute with U.S. President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance.

Act on Instinct,

@Techmeme This is the danger of closed source

These are knowledge models, and they only output what they are fed with

And no, they won’t magically develop ’reasoning skills’ and be able to sift through propaganda. NOT when it’s part of the training

To think otherwise means you don’t know shit how they work

Training data for #ai #foundationmodels should be subject to public #academic scrutiny. Otherwise the models are bound to fall for flooding attacks

They obey statistics

@kdw btw, we're totally with you! And we're grateful to those who were fighting. In a way it's also our failure as we weren't approaching enough right-leaning people online and changing their minds.

The upshot is that we have to keep fighting and victory is possible. Do not despair! If you want to chat a bit about some details about how you can make a difference, we can chat on Signal (everything is legal and non-violent). If you have some initiatives you are taking part in, I would also love to know about those to coordinate the efforts of the group I am a part of.

@jonn I'm not sure what I wrote is required but one case it certainly is if you're a weirdo and like writing stuff like

const fn = <A> (a: A) => ...

Cause that's obviously an opening JSX tag. Adding a comma helps disambiguate (and pisses off ESLint).

The reason I meh'd at Haskell stuff is because I want this to be implicit unless actually needed (as in TS).

So not as worried about definitions as being able to write let rgb = image.convert<RGB>() or let rgb: Image<RGB> = image.convert() or let rgb: Image = image.convert(); rgb.at(0,0).red = 0; (etc)

Which kind of calls for a specific syntax construct that is never expected and almost always allowed.

@Dss @TenebrisNox what do you mean "both"? I think that we must unfuckup social inequality and even solve cost of living crisis! (Gasps)

I would simply prefer for folks in Norwich and Aberdeen not to have to learn russian. 🙂

@jonn ^ this! and after the 4 years end, granted trump is not reelected and doesn't cease power in some other way, it will be impossible to find a single person who had voted for him, at least not by asking people :-)

@virtulis my hot take is that it's the jsx problem! If we went from xml to json to yaml or toml, how come we still use xml for composing react components? 😭

@tivasyk "reelected".

He'll attack Denmark by then and will remain in power under state of emergency provisions.

But we shouldn't burst the bubble so hard. One horrible realisation at a time!

@virtulis my favourite is the C++ oopsie, where >> is an operator and you can't (or couldn't, when I was using C++) write <M<A>> without a space. 🙂

But I think both Rust and Typescript handle template style polymorphism quite ergonomically!
