I left the UK in 2016.

#Tribunas | España ya es un país de ignorantes, pero de ignorantes igualitarios

La educación española ha conseguido la igualdad absoluta de todos los alumnos: ahora ya son todos incompetentes en la misma medida

It’s Schrödinger: the empire is in the SOH cabinet with falling plates, projecting hegemony but fully exposed, trying to suffocate Iran without blowback (impossible).

This endgame cannot be modeled. It will be opened, and Iran's hand is already on the lever.

We need the person who recently sent a 1000 EUR donation via Wise to contact us via email with their full name so we can get Wise to unfreeze the payment. We regularly run into this issue with Wise but it's usually for small donations such as a 5 EUR one which got returned today.

@GrapheneOS @DoomerTapes You never added 10a

I'm looking for my next role, in Montreal or remote! My background spans compilers, systems, and AI research.

I'd welcome introductions, leads, or a repost to help spread the word ❤️

More details about my experience and what I'm looking for: https://t.co/yaLxClffnM

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

@schwarzjn_ We need people like you to work from the inside for the society. These places are only left with self selected psychopaths and sociopaths at this point.

Oye, Sam Altman, hay rumores de que un científico de Anthropic está a punto de resolver el problema de la vivienda en España

Back in my day, we didn’t have to spend $2 trillion to copy someone’s maths homework 🥹

@axboe Does a Linux VM on OSX get you mostly there?

[left_the_uk_eons_ago @LeftEons]

@RealJimChanos @TheStalwart There's going to be a lot of $ printing needed.

@dhh Does omarchy come with a tiling window manager like xmonad?

@Barchart @LukeGromen I thought the Chinese were letting RMB depreciate to lower their yields?

[left_the_uk_eons_ago @LeftEons]

@SoberLook @eliant_capital This is surprising. Would have thought small cap would be the big beneficiaries of AI productivity boost for knowledge work.

@SheDrills Wouldn't China want US dysfunction with the Orange man at the helm though?

[left_the_uk_eons_ago @LeftEons]

@niyonx Have you checked the prices is memory and ssd lately?

[Suhail @Suhail]

The Chinese do not need to distill anymore. They've climbed up the proverbially tech tree that to climb higher, they need to do actual frontier work. Distillation is marginal.

Any lobbying or legislation that calls for banning open weight models in the name of "distillation" is total BS. This is a fight against future American innovation.

The labs know that open weight models completely commoditize their revenue generator. They know that we will optimize it to 1/100th the costs. They know that we will stop concentrating our workloads on them. If we start using open models, they lose the understanding of workloads that they can build products around to *replace* your products as they move up to the app layer.

Remember: *they* trained on humanity's data and didn't pay a cent. If you own intelligence, you can tax humanity.

Do not let them fool you.

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

Trump says Democrats forgot to rig the election in 2016, successfully rigged it while *he* was president in 2020, then forgot how to rig it again in 2024. So the only election Democrats supposedly stole was the one he himself controlled.

You have to be a special kind of stupid to believe this bullshit.

@PeterLBrandt But is the expected return on PSLV/SGOL positive in the long run?
