Email: [email protected]Think back to the movie The Manchurian Candidate. Produce highly capable LLM models then give them away for free. Train them with key phrases/codes etc to perform nefarious actions later when those codes are present in some piece of ingested context.
There were a couple of papers written on the topic in 2018 (I think, I'll need to find them again) and there's been surprisingly little more work done on the topic since. At least from what I've seen.
I really love the use of local models over subscription services but personally I would never recommend using open weights models from certain sources in a commercial environment.
Since it was released Opus 5.5 has solved almost all the problems I've had with previous Anthropic models over the last year. On medium thinking level (default in Claude code) it's been remarkably more succinct and really good at understanding my questions and even anticipating my needs. Has been a markedly huge improvement over previous models and even had me commenting to a colleague the...
Chrome was fast, did the basic job of correctly rendering pages, and its js runtime was groundbreaking. Node.js was direct outcome of that revolution.
Now these days the only thing keeping me tied to chrome is finger muscle memory. The death of manifest v2 is the 2nd to last nail.
Honestly Opus 5.5 had gotten good enough I've been considering a project to have it build a new browser based on the open source Chrome and keeps the v2 in place. Just customize it specifically for my preferences and call it done. No more unexpected breaking updates. Just a browser that does its job and nothing else.
The problem is I use safari on iOS. Generally not a bad browser. Equivalent and superior to Chrome is certain aspects. I don't really need to run Chrome on my phone. Safari is good enough. However... for a local build only I use maybe it's possible.
For some reason the first time I tapped the link it didn't go directly to the article, which confused me. Subsequent times it goes straight through.
So saying please and thanks isn't anthropomorphizing the models, it's more simply using input patterns that get better outputs more aligned to the desired result.
It also has the benefit of reinforcing polite behavior among us, the humans. Side benefit, but it is a thing to consider.
I don't think there's anything going on inside other than predictions. That being said, being nice never hurts.
If I'm mean to some people and nice to others, that just means I'm an a-hole. I don't wanna be that. Being kind all around helps me be a better person in the world. And in some cases with the robots, it helps as well.

I scanned through paragraph after paragraph of overbloated and repetitive descriptions of what and how RAG works compared to how "modern agents" need to access documents.
What I never saw at any point was whatever this "alternative to RAG" was supposed to be.
Honestly the entire body of copy feels like it was llm generated.

Email: [email protected]The usage of them immediately makes your commentary suspect. Either you aren't using the standard web interface to make a comment, you're using and odd 3rd party client, or its LLM generated.
Science moves forward yet again with a few backward steps.

Email: [email protected]> Gameplay Type: First Person Shooter Role Playing Game Summary: A long anticipated release with eight years of development time, the game’s launch has been plagued with bugs and poor performance as well as decidedly mixed reviews. Regardless, the title offers gamers the largest open world cyberpunk universe thus far, so despite the rather uninspired art design and a plot that brings nothing new to the genre, this game is the best available to allow players to immerse themselves in a cyberpunk setting.
This is a very dated and seriously opinionated review.
My use case, even on phone:

Right click link to open in new tab OR: tap/hold a link then open I a new window.
What problem is this solving?
Then since Anthropic was so kind to provide $100 for Fable credits, I did another handoff to let Fable attack the root issues again. Several more hours and I'm back to seeing the same issues again and Fable is wandering around trying different things. I'm down about $40 of free money and still don't have a solution.
This is where having the human engineer in the loop benefits from a deep understanding of the problem domain. In this case, I don't yet.
I know the high level architecture I'm building, but the deep specifics of how vision models work and how conversion across platforms should be done isn't something I know yet.
So I'm left learning as I go and relying on constant feedback with the models to provide what guidance I can while learning exactly what is being done.
Someone who already knows these architectures would likely be able to get to the solution much faster.
Domain privacy protection is a feature that Namecheap provides for all valid domains. Its included by default at no extra cost.
The poster didn't indicate if they had this feature enabled or not for the domain. It would have prevented the college club person from even seeing their email address to initiate a password reset.
This clearly isn't an answer for NC's customer support personnel and company policies.
But I've been a happy customer for many years and I discourage others from immediately reading other comments and rushing to jump to other registrars without doing your due dilligence.
Remember that in any situation, the people most likely to leave negative comments and reviews are the people that have had genuine bad experiences or feel like they've been slighted, even if unwarranted.
To add: desertification and more or less removing the support systems for modern population levels can easily happen with what's going on. But the oceans won't boil first. Everything else will die first.
