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

@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.

@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 :-)

Canada has two modes, I'm sorry, and you're about to be sorry.

Donald Trump represents the United States. Until you have deposed him, strung him up from an Esso garage on the edge of a city square, or just voted him out, he represents all the people of the US. He is your president.

When Britain was faced with Nazi Germany, it was of no use for Britons to remember that Hitler did not represent the people of the Reich, and that there were some nice Germans.

Today, your country is an existential threat to mine. Period.

I know some people who say "it's not that bad, we have checks and balances". What are your checks showing? Where are your balances?

politicians are killing Ukrainians.

But again, even if one sets aside morals, them unilaterally turning off satellite data flow just reiterates a simple concept – usa is *not* a reliable partner. That includes privately owned companies that have governmental supervision.

It means that you need to consider at least two candidate moves to *understand* why the best move is the best.

Consider as few candidate moves as possible, but not fewer.

I'm in the process of getting this into the news, but I can't hold it back given Starmer's backflip.

In case you wonder how handles immigration – they are quietly rejecting visa extensions to refugees. No appeal.

The case I am talking to news outlets about is a woman from Mariupol whose house is destroyed, whose city is under occupation, who is absolutely self-sufficient and who pays her own bills here in the . said that they believe that she can return to Ukraine and if she doesn't feel safe – explore options in the EU or Canada.

Let it sink in – government under populist was more humane than under career politician .

⚡️ Poroshenko, Tymoshenko admit 'public' contacts with allies but reaffirm opposition to elections during war.

Ex-President Petro Poroshenko's team works "publicly and transparently" with U.S. partners to ensure bipartisan support for Ukraine, Poroshenko said on March 6, reiterating his opposition to elections during the war.

His comments came in reaction to Politico's article, which claimed that U.S. President Donald Trump's team has been leading secret talks with Poroshenko and another opposition leader, Yuliia Tymoshenko, as Washington ramps up pressure against President Volodymyr Zelensky.

What if Trump is just a massive red team exercise

If you commute, take a different route if you can.
