@flyfishcedarci1@BryanSteil I didn't believe you about the Republican policies pushing mfg overseas (vis-a-vis Democrat policies). But it does appear that most mfg job loss (as % of pop) corresponds directly with Republican presidents. At least after 1960.
Interesting. I've been able to get similar results by ingesting source documents into a vector database and then having the LLM use that database to answer questions including detailed citations to the sources. Basically, RAG without online access to sources. 🤔
I've built a new AI model that is not allowed to generate text. Instead, it produces a verifiable program that answers your prompt using the original reference.
XERJ Reader-1 is a neurosymbolic model for working with data. It points to the exact words in your document, writes a small program over them, and exact code computes the answer:
• 20-90x faster
• 10-1,000x cheaper (output tokens free)
• every answer is a program you can replay
The shortest path to automating data work.
Let's assume this is true (just assume for a moment): these are models that I do not believed have been licensed, so if NVIDIA was not diligent (they absolutely weren't) or knowingly filed misleading or false documentation then this is a criminal case. Not a bad look, criminal
At a board meeting I met an investor who had worked for Howard Hughes in the old days. He said Howard would woo female employees and when successful would buy them a new pink car. Consequently, there were many pink cars in the parking lot. Is that where Mary Kay got the idea? 🤷♂️
This does feel like a hatchet job (well-paced info drops, minimum channel noise, focus on what should be a non-issue) but I don't think it's because he's Asian-American. I think they want him out without sending him to prison.
Jensen Huang’s resignation has left many Asian Americans feeling unsettled by the haunting notion that they’ve denied all their lives:
That no matter how successful, an Asian face and surname will be picked apart under harsher scrutiny and never stay in leadership for very long.
Microsoft says they are "restarting the servers" to fix Outlook. Glad to know a trillion-dollar tech giant fixes their problems the exact same way my grandma fixes her Wi-Fi router. #OutlookDown#Microsoft@MSFT365Status EX1550543
A U.S. Army lieutenant colonel stationed with NATO in England was caught in a sting operation and arrested on suspicion of trying to steal secrets for Russia.
Lt. Col. Brandon Tyner, 41, was detained near Gloucester on Nov. 10. He had been unknowingly communicating with British authorities. Officials say he was stopped before anything was handed to Russia.
He faces charges under the U.K. National Security Act 2023, with U.S. military prosecution expected afterward.
The Kremlin denies any link to him.

Just heard an analyst claim that of Anthropic and OpenAI top 1% of customers, which collectively account for 80% of their businesses, 80% are VC-funded.
And open weight models account for only 5% of corporate AI spend.
Guys I'm sure it's just a concidence that Kyle & Brandon Lutnick increased their stake in Intel by almost 2,000% at the same time that Daddy anounced the federal gov't was taking an unprecedented 10% stake in Intel. https://t.co/Z5NM6fXfI0
Unsurprising that airlines would clamp down on AI agents. Agents could make comparison shopping too easy, cutting into profits. Without massive information asymmetry many industries would have to overhaul their business models.
Congress banned congressional insider trading in a highly publicized vote in 2012 and then effectively unbanned it (by removing disclosure requirements) with a very quiet voice vote (no individual roll call vote recorded) a year later.
BREAKING: Representative Anna Paulina Luna has said that she will bring up a discharge petition for a ban on stock trading by both Congress and the President.
She seems to be admitting how she routinely tipped off targets of investigation (which would almost certainly tip off the country doing the espionage).
Definitely a longtime CCP employee.
Hillary Clinton Blames the Trump Administration for the Jensen Huang Scandal
“If your government knows that an American citizen is a target of an espionage operation, and you have reason to believe he does not know that … then you owe it to him to tell him. They didn't tell him.”
Eg, the reelected governor took $400k from a state contractor, then in 2 years upped their rates 57% from $149 to $234 per bed, per day. 31% above the state average. Not an election issue per GOP, probably because they have their own pay-to-play schemes planned.
We have got a lot of problems, and fat and lazy Republican organizations are one of them…
My new @townhallcom will annoy all the right people.
“In the red states, we got too used to winning easily. Far too used to it. We got so used to winning that it never occurred to us that we might not win, and it never occurred to us that we might have to work to win. We forgot that we need to earn votes, that we don’t just inherit them by right. Sure, some marquee candidates were awful, but it wasn’t just the marquee candidates who lost. It was everyone from governors down to assistant deputy dog catchers. If you had an R by your name, you were about as popular as an openly herpetic participant in a polycule orgy.”
