Odd, when i open it the page loads for second , then disappears and claims it was unable to load the page.

But by the point i've already seen what's in it.

I think that's because GitHub is trying to load the dozens of awful comments on the commit by people with usernames like waifuconnoisseur lamenting the loss of the politically incorrect, Hitler-loving grok. For what it's worth, they unfortunately load for me in Safari but it takes ~10 seconds.

Yeah, I also see tons of comments in there loading up, and then at some point the page "crashes" and you get the "unable to load" page

For me this page loads and displays fine, only after about 2 seconds Github displays a loading error. Makes no sense.

Those comments... Wild what some people are willing to post under their real name -- and their employer's name.

I hope they get to find out in a decade just how long the internet's memory is.

If they are posting under employee accounts or accounts that directly link to their employer why does it need to take a decade?

I hope those are not real people.

How do you even QA the non-determinism of these technologies?
Re:Grok 4 by teej on Thursday July 10, 2025 @08:18PM (#44527156)
Evals.

In this case, they could have QA'd the changes, they just didn't care.

That line may have been removed from Grok 3 but it looks like it's still in Grok 4: https://grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5_fb5f16af-9590-4880-9d96-5857...
