StackOverflow moderation was hijacked by army of Sheldon Coopers

I don’t buy any of this. They released something extremely resource-hungry, slow, and token-intensive. In layman’s terms, it feels more like overclocking than a real improvement over Opus.

I suspect it was not sustainable to run it for millions of users without a huge price adjustment. So, before the IPO, they may have wanted to preview something “cool” and then stage some kind of legal force majeure.

Also, considering how corrupt the current U.S. government appears to be, it is not impossible that one of Trump’s sons has a partnership with Anthropic, or that some kind of backdoor deal is going on. In that case, this could have been done in cooperation with a corrupt government

It seems to me that AI target-selection systems are being used not just for efficiency, but as a way to distance military staff from responsibility for what they are killing. Current AI models naturally speculate and hallucinate if you don’t tightly constrain them. we see this all the time as software engineers when working with agentic coding.

This creates a dangerous dynamic. AI can generate targets that a human operator might not be able to justify manually, and when something goes wrong the blame can always be shifted to the system, such as the recent incident where roughly 180 children were killed due to faulty targeting.

Israel’s way of fighting this war looks more like pure destruction than a conventional military campaign, and AI systems like this are very easy to abuse in that context. At this point it’s clear that even the U.S. is willing to eliminate targets even when the collateral damage includes the person’s family or neighbors. I don’t think that would have been acceptable in previous administrations. Israel has lowered the bar.

That may be why Anthropic moved early to denounce this kind of usage, even though they had previously partnered with the Department of War.

Now let’s look at the statements made by Anthropic and Hegseth:

From Anthropic’s own statement, we hear that they have actually been quite closely partnered. In Hegseth’s tweet we see:

“Anthropic will continue to provide the Department of War its services for a period of no more than six months to allow for a seamless transition to a better and more patriotic service.”

This shows that Anthropic is still currently being actively used by the Department of War.

My view is that Anthropic and its investors eventually realized that the American war machine will use their technology in reckless ways, and that this will certainly create a massive PR disaster or, in an ideal world, even legal consequences. That realization likely pushed them to adopt what they now frame as a more “humanitarian” position.

AI target-selection systems have become a loophole that removes the link between the decision-maker (who should bear responsibility within the military bureaucracy) and the actual action taken. Israel became the implementer of this model in Gaza (Palantir was most likely part of this system as well).

Let us recall what former Israeli Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi reportedly conveyed about a meeting with Netanyahu. The IDF said they had struck 1,400 targets, yet Netanyahu reportedly slammed the table and angrily asked why it wasn’t 5,000, and said “bomb everywhere and destroy the houses.”

For the military bureaucracy, the fact that AI can speculate or generate potential targets (which is entirely possible with LLM systems) becomes a convenient mechanism that, at least on paper, allows them to distance themselves from responsibility.

We have already seen incidents where roughly 180 children were killed due to faulty targeting, assuming and hoping it was not intentional.

We are in a similar situation, and here's what I did:

1) Learned the basic concepts of double-entry bookkeeping. 2) Told ChatGPT about my business domain and requested an example Chart of Accounts (CoA) tailored to it.

Feel free to reach out to me, I’d love to exchange ideas.

Most people (including the author apparently) don't know they can chain errors with cause option in-built way in node and in browser. It is not just arbitrary extending and it is relatively a new thing. https://nodejs.org/api/errors.html#errorcause

yes but consider this Jest code, replicating such in node testing is painful. testing code should be DSL-like, should be very easy to read.

            expect(bar).toEqual(
                expect.objectContaining({
                    symbol: `BTC`,
                    interval: `hour`,
                    timestamp: expect.any(Number),
                    o: expect.any(Number),
                    h: expect.any(Number),
                    l: expect.any(Number),
                    c: expect.any(Number),
                    v: expect.any(Number)
                })
            );

It is based on vite and a bundler has no place in my backend. Vite is based on roll-up, roll-up uses some other things such as swc. I want to use typescript projects and npm workspaces which vite doesn't seem to care about.

I love Node's built-in testing and how it integrates with VSCode's test runner. But I still miss Jest matchers. The Vitest team ported Jest matchers for their own use. I wish there were a similar compatibility between Jest matchers and Node testing as well.

One thing you should add to section 10 is encouraging people to pass `cause` option while throwing new Error instances. For example

new Error("something bad happened", {cause:innerException})

There’s a truth we’re rarely taught in school and I find it deeply poetic: The vivid colors we see in flowers, even those beyond our vision in the ultraviolet, and the delicate fragrances that drift on the breeze they're not for us.

They are nature’s love songs, composed to seduce insects. All this beauty is a grand performance, meant to charm bugs into becoming messengers of life, carrying pollen from bloom to bloom.

Bees, though precious, are just one part of this ancient dance. Moths, beetles, butterflies, each plays a role in this quiet symphony of survival.

And yet, this balance is being disrupted. Greedy and short-sighted actions are damaging ecosystems that are far more complex than we understand.

But here’s the humbling part: Nature will endure. She always has. She’ll shake us off like dust, heal in silence, and bloom again with or without witnesses.

Ravendb is trash. It can’t handle even 1/10 of this type of a load, it was trashed in jepsen testing too. I had to work with it 4 years and i disliked it.

It is not just a mainboard issue. I had an asus mechanical keyboard. After I started using it, Windows kept installing software and background services in system that is a listening port. I kept deleted it manually and no matter I did, windows kept installing it without my consent. It was really annoying.

checkout ClickHouse cloud maybe they have cheaper options for your usage

Please Google Thomas Seyfried and William Makis. The latter is controversial—if he’s not completely fraudulent and making things up, he might be onto something. He’s sharing emails from numerous cancer patients who claim to have healed using these two particular molecules.

I have a friend who is an MD, and he recently asked me what I’ve been doing to manage my seborrheic dermatitis. Since dermatologists have no cure for it, we often have to resort to anecdotal treatments. Moreover, big pharma doesn’t invest in studies for treatments they can’t patent. Blind trust in medical professionals isn’t necessarily wise. Anecdotal solutions still hold significant value, in my opinion

Have you read Thomas Seyfried's researches. he says it is possible to strangle cancer cells with keto diet + blocking glutamine. He calls that 'press-pulse strategy'

It is funny that my comment was upvoted at night and downvoted in the morning by early birds. Dear early birds, your lifestyle is not canonical. Yes, our civilization was built by you guys, but it wouldn't have happened if we night owls had not protected you while you slept.

This writing is as unhelpful as telling an obese person simply to exercise and eat less. Everyone is different; I'm one of those people who were made to protect the tribe while they sleep. I'm naturally nocturnal, and the silence of the night makes me more alert. Turning on a not-so-interesting documentary or political commentary on YouTube actually helps me relax and fall asleep.

I think things are getting worse, JD Vance is Peter Thiel's high-rank implant to possible upcoming Trump administration.

you can run a tunnel client on any server and as long as the server has outbound internet access, you can publicly access this server via Cloudflare controlled domain. You can also have standard CloudFlare perks in this way such as CDN and rewrite rules. You don't need to have a reverse proxy server, no need to rely on static IPs or inbound firewall rules in the data center. So you can freely create and destroy droplets they can have different IPs each time.

My latest `serverfull` deployment:

܁ DigitalOcean droplet(s) with Docker service preinstalled.

܁ All services are running with docker-compose.

܁ Managed Postgresql and spaces for storage.

܁ Cloudflare free tier and their `tunnel` product as a reverse proxy into your docker-compose network is super useful.

܁ Github actions and container registry to compile and sync container images. We have staging/production environments. Some GitHub actions run idempotent Bash scripts to prepare droplets.

܁ Shameless plug, I am up for hire.

Correct me if I am wrong. there are already treatments discovered for removing plaques, but it turned out that plaques aren't the real cause of cognitive decline. That's what I read before.

I think this is a hostile policy of Apple not to bother implementing stable interoperation with non-apple hardware.

I have an LG monitor and a list of bugs I am experiencing in the macOS:

- No sound volume control

- No brightness control

- Nightshift doesn't work on it

- Audio is unusable most of the time. When I try to play audio on the monitor, it is playing it at like 10x speed with a stuttering sound and if you try to watch a 20-minute video it finishes in like 2 minutes.

Yes I am serious and I meant nicotine. Many ADHD people are already addicts usually the worst form of it: cigarettes. It is a nootropic with a big health tradeoff. So don't consider yourself unmedicated if you are a user.

In my case, cigars help me a lot, much more than dopamine stimulants. I think acetylcholine stimulation should be studied more by the pharma.

Are you smoking? if so, you are already medicating yourself

C# is not flexible enough. Nominal typing is too rigid. You can't `return {foo:bar}` from a method and have type safety. You can't declare type inline way.
