This is mind blowing. He solves these puzzles before I can find the king. How humbling. There probably aren't many instances like this where the gap between world-class and average person becomes this clear.
On the other hand, every single observation anyone has ever made was a finite value of something.
Even when things are potentially infinite, there seems to be a conspiracy of the universe to make it finite. The size of space may be infinite, but due to a finite speed of light and the finite age of the universe we can only ever observe a finite slice. When attempting to zoom in to an infinite degree onto supposedly point-like particles, quantum mechanics makes everything fuzzy and finite again. Black holes appear to have infinite curvature at the center, but it's unobservable due to the event horizon.
This principle seems so natural that we even apply it in advance: In quantum field theory, there are infinities in the equations when done naively, which we deem so unnatural that we apply funny tricks which make mathematicians cringe, but they miraculously work out so well that we get theory and experiments to agree to an astonishing degree.
It is unfathomable to me how anyone can defend or relativize this despicable behavior.
I suppose the difference is that the algorithm isn't specific per user. There are no bubbles like on social media, and the algorithm isn't designed to keep users engaged by tailoring their feed based on their viewing history.
I found Claude Code to work best. You can use it with any compatible API.
The many worlds are a consequence, not a postulate. It is the Copenhagen interpretation that postulates that all branches but one disappear at measurement.
Yes. Many worlds is just the Schrödinger equation without the wave function collapse. It makes less assumptions. Falsify the Schrödinger equation, and you have falsified many worlds. However, is the wave function collapse falsifiable? It's one postulate which many worlds doesn't make, and it cannot be confirmed or falsified by experiment.
Or: Microsoft has the data already, so why give the data to Anthropic and OpenAI, too?
Wait, when did brain chips enter the picture?
Were paper straws ever about climate change? This feels like a red herring. Pollution has many aspects to it, and you can work on several problems simultaneously.
School shouldn't be teaching essential life skills. It should inspire and enable young people to go on to achieve great things -- at least some of them. How will we ever get another Newton, Einstein, von Neumann, Noether, etc. if we don't teach all young kids what is possible with math? Calculus arguably transformed our society and is a great showcase of the power of math. It can shape the way we think about things, because this level of precision is rarely needed when thinking about other disciplines.
No, because it may cause the violation of basic human rights of minorities.
However, it is in our democratic right to fight parties that are anti constitutional. It's in the constitution.
> If people dont want democracy they should be able to choose so.
Debatable. One of the core ideas of democracy is to protect minorities. Democracy has been built around the concept that a majority cannot restrict basic rights of minorities. Arguably no one should be allowed to create a system which allows the violation of basic human rights of minorities.
That's not the whole thing. Looks like it's mostly meta data. The whole thing is some 200G+ bittorrent.
I have yet to see any actual data of this leak, even though it's all over the news.
You can just tell them to adopt a different style. To make sure, add another pass with an agent that flags and/or fixes LLM tics. Humans typically do several passes over writings that they intend to publish, why are we expecting agents to do it in one shot? Just like the superpowers skill for software development does a spec phase, planning phase, several review rounds, etc., if you do the same with writing you get very passable results.
Would you mind posting at least one link? If it's actually documented across the internet, this should take you no time. A bunch of anecdotes does not count, though.
I've seen this reflex quite a few times now. To diminish the impressive capabilities of the latest LLMs, one resorts to the assertion that they're not sentient, or not truely intelligent, or various other semantic diversions. No one claimed that. GP was all about usefulness.
The language I grew up with does use non latin letters, I can manage. Then again, it's only four of them, so I get your point ... but I can dream, can't I?
So many headaches could be avoided if we only allowed `[A-Za-z0-9._-]` in paths. (Arguably, even `-` can be problematic.) Encoding issues, expansion, parameter separation, ... and I never saw a convincing case in favor of supporting anything else.
Yeah well I produce home grown silicon in super novae.

That would be quite the oversight, considering reddit didn't require you to be logged in (awhile back). But if you happen to have a source on this, I'd be interested.
Personally, I also suspect that archive.is is simply paying for subscriptions as a last resort, but I specifically wanted to know from OP. If they do, they do remove the "logged in" status. It always appears as "logged out" in the archived version. I wonder how far they go, whether they scrub watermarks and other identifiers.
Why stop at `git clone`? Why not include `apt install git` and equivalents for all OSs?
I strongly suspect archive.is is buying subscriptions to the big outlets with actually hard paywalls. The fact that both OP and the Magnolia1234 fall back to archive.is for the actually challenging paywalls support that. That's the difference to a Citibank account: you can't simply buy access for that.
In your blog you say:
> If every method fails, fall back to an archived copy from archive.is.
What do you reckon is the reason that archive.is is most reliable? I've seen the same in the Magnolia1234 plugin. If all fails, fall back to archive.is. What are they doing that you or the Magnolia devs can't?
Is it fair to say that Crawler spoofing only works on sites that don't care?
Google recommends [1] checking the reverse DNS hostname of the source IP. I don't see any room for tricks there. So if you spoof a whitelisted Crawler simply by choosing the right values for some request headers, it means the publisher's web team is either clueless or doesn't care enough, no?
