I couldn't find anything else to do exactly what I wanted (or wasn't just a blatent rugpull towards "enterprise pricing" waiting to happen) so I slopped together an MCP Proxy that uses FastMCP to proxy a list of upstream MCPs behind Entra oauth, with CEL-expressions for per-tool RBAC.
The peace of mind it brought not trusting other people's slopped out MCPs to do the right thing with authentication is immense.
It's internal only, but it was a Fable 5 one-shot (3 shot if you count a second prompt to generate the Helm Chart and docs site) that you could DIY because the FastMCP library is extremely sensible and well-documented.
"Extreme Heat" seems to be 37-40 degrees Celsius which is bafflingly mundane to me as an Australian who grew up in rural New South Wales. We'd pack 30 kids and a teacher into an un-airconditioned classroom with just a ceiling fan and the windows open in that temperature.
I imagine the buildings there just aren't built to support that heat plus the body height of hundreds or thousands of attendees?
You don't stay the most cash-rich company by chasing every expensive fad and they've been equally conservative with other "THIS WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING" tech fads such as Cryptocurrency and VR. I don't blame them for not rushing to light Billions a month on fire like the other big players; their play always seems to be to let things shake out and then deliver something refined and sophisticated.
There also doesn't seem like any real opportunity for them to Apple-ify this tech (any more than today's announcement). There's lots of rough edges and the underlying technology is fundamentally janky and extremely problematic in Apple's second differentiator of privacy.
What is the name for the literary device that LLMs use where it explains something and then follows with a "pithy" "gotcha" sentence?
> > Atherton didn't have to win. A CEQA lawsuit doesn't need a strong legal theory to do damage — it just needs to introduce enough risk that funders freeze and clocks keep running. The delay is the weapon.
In my opinion, this construct is massively overused by LLMs and is extremely jarring to read. The pithy followup "The delay is the weapon." feels like Year 8 Debate Club and is very melodramatic and cringy.
It must be possible to steer the LLM away from this?

There are other spots that stand out, but this is the point where I said to myself "oh this is the point where the author stopped "cowriting" and just pasted the LLM slop directly."
The goal that AI-Megacorp CEOs have been pushing lately is "super intelligence" and so if that's where you truly think we are rapidly heading, what's the risk for those of us not hyper-invested in AI? This "super intelligence" (by definition) will be able to understand us both equally well, so all these "prompting skills" people claim sets them apart from people who don't use AI that much will be utterly pointless.
I certainly wouldn't use a compiler that "screws up" 1% of the time; that's the perfect amount where it's extremely common where everything I use it for will have major issues but also so laborious to find amongst the 99% of correct output that I might as well not use it in the first place.
Which is ironically, the exact case those of us who don't find LLM-assisted coding "worth it" make.
At this point, where everyone is using an LLM to post and I'm having to use an LLM to keep up and summarise it, I think I'll just ...stop and go outside for quite a while...
Cancer Council is an Australian charity which raises funds for cancer research and support.
Buying their products supports them (and you would expect they hold themselves to even higher standards for the effectiveness of their product than a random company).
It likely overrides DNS resolution to CDN/POPs in countries which don't require age checking, or routes the traffic through TCP proxies so your traffic appears to come from a different country without these laws.
This will increase the latency of all traffic to that site though.
AI proponents keep drawing perfectly straight lines from "no AI --> LLMs exist --> LLMs write some adequate code sometimes" up into the horizon of the Y axis where AIs run all governments, write all code, paint all paintings and so on.
There's a large overlap with the crypto true-believers who were convinced after seeing "no blockchain --> blockchain exists" that all laws would be enshrined in the blockchain, all business would be done with blockchains, etc.
We've had automation in the past; it didn't decimate the labour-force; it just changed how people work.
And we didn't go from handwashing clothes --> washing machines --> all flat surfaces are cleaned daily by washing robots...
I made my own really mediocre version of this 2 years ago just for PS4 and Switch ROMS, also using IGDB etc. Glad to see something so polished and professional looking.
For the maintainers, does this pull the metadata (e.g Title ID or PKG ID) from the (supported) ROM files directly, or only from the filename? I skimmed the README and Docs and couldn't find a clear answer.
I know you’re being disparaging by using language like “bake into their identity” but everyone is “something” about “something”.
I’m “indifferent” about “roller coasters” and “passionate” about “board games”.
To answer the question (but I’m not OP), I’m skeptical about LLMs. “These words are often near each other” vastly exceeds my expectation at being fairly convincing that the machine “knows” something, but it’s dangerously confident when it’s hilariously incorrect.
Whatever we call the next technological leap where there’s actual knowledge (not just “word statistics” I’ll be less skeptical about.
In my opinion the difference is that a recent graduate knows to say “I don’t know” to questions they’re not sure on, whereas LLMs will extremely confidently and convincingly lie to your face and tell you dangerous nonsense.
