For my companies purposes US contract law is risk mitigating enough.

If you want zero data retention you have to go api only.

It’s very common in grocery stores. Kroger for instance reports this way.

If day of the week is important you get more consistent results this way.

Note what that explicitly doesn’t say. Any decisions about good or bad investments.

I’ve felt that way since the 4.1 releases. Opus 5.5 is a good model, especially after the disaster at the 4.7 mark.

But sol 6.1 is at least in the conversation as being as good and is much cheaper. I farm out bunches of my tasks to Luna and Haiku these days and have a working prototype of a glm 5.3 workflow at work that shows it being competitive.

The price pressure is very real and if you aren’t on a subscription then there is virtually no reason to pay the Anthropic premium

I’m a huge fan of small iPhones and only recently replaced it with a standard size model. I pretty much hate it for all the reasons I expected.

But when I looked up the sales numbers for all of the smaller phone versions I had to admit I must be pretty far outside the normal buyer. The market really spoke on this.

The question wasn’t why these systems are setup insecurely (which has an obvious answer about cost prioritization).

Of course there are ways to setup these things securely, same with smart tvs and doorbell cameras and whatever else is getting hacked. People just have a bad time figuring out the cost benefit of all of this. And frankly we don’t know if that cost benefit has even been crossed yet, perhaps this doesn’t rate.

You yourself are engaging in cost prioritizing without adequate information. Sending a technician on site may be extremely expensive (opportunity costs and inventory risk on cold chains are wild).

Diagnostics and troubleshooting are not necessarily read only. Some of these systems have temperature controls that are centrally managed for operations centers for instance.

It really depends on the grocery. Kroger gets a big chunk of their profits from their data stack.

Monitoring, alerting, remote diagnostics and trouble shooting.

Commercial cold chains are expensive, high value collections of equipment that even small errors at the edges can cause huge monetary losses. And grocery stores are in an extremely low margin business.

It makes sense if they let them fail, but note the system is not that the ccp broadly backs them. Each state backs their own set, and if they fail that state loses the jobs/favtories/etc. so there is a lot of friction for letting them fail.

They also had a 22% decrease in sales domestically YoY this past year. The only thing keeping a bunch of those brands around is state sponsorship.

That’s only true of street side shares. And unlike cede shares vs direct registrations you can’t treat tokens as fungible with direct ownership.

Look at swap contracts. They are pretty standard financial agreements that are just otc agreements between 2 parties and they are frequently pegged to an exchange traded price with none of the underlying contract obligations.

Tokenization is and of the tech isn’t sketchy at all. That it’s mostly used to get around the regulations something like swap contracts are for is.

I’m not sure where you are getting your sources but almost every report that the Times and Post won the Pulitzer for were mostly validated by both the Mueller report, Congressional investigations and 2 different reviews by the Pulitzer board.

Rather than moving on from this the Pulitzer Board is vigorously defending their decision in court as we speak.

There certainly hasn’t been a retraction. You’ll also note Trump never sued the papers over their coverage.

The same compiler will convert source to binary in different ways! Hermetic builds are hard!

Even if we allow for hermetic builds in some cases in many many other cases your runtime will recompile your code based on its observations about your environment and that’s frequently what we want.

This fetishism of “determinism” seems crazy to anyone that has had to spend time really digging into modern JIT based compilation.

Not disagreeing with you just curious if you can cite sources for my own research.

In most threaded Internet forums when you respond to a thread you are implying a continuation of the previous conversation.

It seems you weren’t following that norm and we were talking past each other. That’s fine and I’m happy to leave it at that.

Perhaps in the future you can recognize the local norms before resorting to personal attacks even if those norms are different than the parts of the internet you normally hang out in.

> By definition an LLM is unable to build what has never been built before because you are going outside the realm of pretraining/RL

That’s pretty hard to read differently. Can you add the nuance I’m missing?

Your argument is that advanced mathematics, that did not solve navier stones, were in the weights and that enabled them to solve it. And you think it butresses the argument that the llms can’t do _coding_ tasks they haven’t seen before?

It is, and always has been, data contracts. Which is why the hyperscalars are a more likely candidate to take American frontier business than Chinese vendors.

I can click a button in Azure foundry and run open weight models that are approved through my compliance and procurement teams.

I don’t know how open sourcing this stuff helps deepseek but it means I’m getting ever better and cheaper models so I’m fine with it.

Did you read the article? WhatsApp are claiming that’s steering their own agent is exactly who it is for. And they removed that when they found a better way to steer it.

You can decide you don’t believe that but it’s in the article so acting like it’s not a topic of discussion is on you.

They are not required to suggest you delete their account in their chatbot.

That’s a hard position to defend in the face of navier stokes

It’s a complicated legal area and it changes. The SEC prior to the current Trump administration took an extremely broad view of it and included all kinds of unintuitive relationships.

But the obvious one is if you are an employee of a company you owe the shareholders of the company due to your employment.

You understand of course that those numbers show a very mediocre trading strategy. The sharpe ratio and beta on that would get you fired at any professional equity shop.

Graph that congress long/short strategy against qqq and you’ll see why. The very rich in congress are tech investors by and large. They hold outsized bets in Nvidia mostly. You didn’t need any insider knowledge to make outsized returns if you are willing to have a risk on Nvidia position cherry picked from 2020 to today.

This is a bad analogy because it perpetuates a misconception of the basis of insider trading law (in the US).

Insider trading has nothing to do with having an information advantage. The markets and their regulators encourage those with an information advantage to use it to as full advantage as they can.

Insider trading is based on having an economic obligation to someone else. If you use your knowledge to make money and you don’t share that equitably with the people you have that obligation to, that’s insider trading (in the US).

You’d have to torture that definition for it to make sense in the job market and none of the examples in the article match.

It’s interesting that you think the opposite of the suburbs is high rises (I assume that’s what you mean by rat cages).

The reality is that prewar housing in cities in the US was still frequently single family housing. The Chicago Bungalow is an obvious example.

The difference was in how close they were to each other and how much of the infrastructure was given to cars.

I’m not sure I buy that there is some tidy explanation about suburbanization leading to the decline in social interaction but if you think everyone describing city living is describing midtown manhattan you’ve got to myopic view of what urban housing means.

This is true of suburbs as well fwiw. There are lots of walkable suburbs with common community space and not a McMansion or big box shop to be seen.

Ok but then you are dealing with criminals willing to run up against those governments.

That’s not an incremental change in risk over a crypto transaction.

Are there any American banks that will let you wire money to North Korea?
