This is me most days at work, writing code that will be shipped in a mass market product. So long as I'm getting my work done nobody gets to tell me how to do my job.

You won't. It will become something you install like a browser.

Or you could just own it like Patrick Stewart did.

LOC has no impact on revenue whatsoever. We've known about that for decades.

A self enforcing license header.

>Most people here probably have around $5-10M in assets given we’re mostly in tech.

In yen perhaps.

Oh jeez, that's atrocious. I'm starting to reconsider some of the things I used to say about Corporate Memphis.

Professional executives.

In practice that may be true but you're still violating the TOS.

Had a plumber do a job in my apartment the other day and he came up with a pipe wrench. Assuming he was an owner operator it would be his to do with as he pleases. It's not going to charge him by the job and the company that made it certainly won't take it off him because they don't like the way he's using it. Yet this is the kind of future some are trying to build, where the tool is only available as a subscription from one of two companies, and where owning the tool makes you an enemy of the state.

With a fare cap to prevent them from screwing over the public.

It's still straightforward.

1. Buy a Mac Mini (actually the hardest part given shortages).

2. Download Jellyfin. Drag and drop it into your applications dir.

3. Point it at your downloads dir.

4. Install Jellyfin on your Android TV/whatever.

Yeah, I've done more to it than that (I'm on HN after all), but for people used to torrenting there's nothing here that would present much of a challenge.

Meh? Most orgs Beyond a certain size maintain a list of which vendors are acceptable.

Especially not after spending the last two years alienating it.

Hardly a toss up based on this. Kind of stunning to see how much damage has been done in less than two years.

>Harness² is a plug-and-play framework for recursive agent harnessing in an open world, where agents encounter tasks unseen during harness design.

Huh?

Nobody capable of a minute of honest introspection believes that. If you shuffled all the backend devs in the world and randomly assigned them a role elsewhere most will do perfectly fine. I began my own career in VFX, moved into compliance and am now working on automotive software - there's no moat around even the most niche domain knowledge, you just need to be prepared to spend time learning it. If I had to roll that into an identity it would be the learning I get to do at every turn in my career. That's what I enjoy but there's absolutely nothing unique or special about it.

Maybe the reason people are upset is simpler? Maybe people with a mortgage and kids to support don't like being told they'll absolutely 100% soon be out on their arse. Even if you don't believe that it's still tiring having to hear the same mindless taunts and vapid bullshit repeated on a daily basis.

That sounds like a surefire way to make a bad situation worse.

>But the determinism isn't the real distinction. LLM inference can be made deterministic (temparaute zero, etc.).

You'll still be exposed to non-deterministic behaviour through floating point errors, GPU batching and a myriad of other factors.

Might be referring to infrastructure.

Wouldn't be so bad if shitty companies were allowed to fail.

You sound threatened by this.

Wouldn't trust them any less than a US frontier lab.

If I'm gathering participants for a similar study at a psychology lab I would be required to get their consent first.

Europe should stop enforcing anything relating to OFAC in response.

They don't have to censor the internet. They just have to make it illegal for their citizens to do business with Meta.

In the old days newspapers used to be fined for allowing fraudsters to take out ads in the classified section. Jail time wasn't out of the question either.

If you're not able to write your own fucking README (the title page if we're making book analogies) why would I bother with your project. Stop being lazy.

Epstein Glasses by Meta. For people who don't do consent.
