The problem will be aftermarket car alarms. There used to be a car that parked on the street near my apartment that would go off ever time a bus went by it.

> Settlement would mean it doesn't become legal precedence, right?

The summary judgment ruling from 2025 in this case will still be legal precedence, the settlement will mean that there is no trial for damages.

However, since this is a district court ruling it is non-binding on other courts.

Yes, the trick is having a "ground-truth" KB it can link to, and trying to avoid citogensis from happening. I'm not sure if it's a technique that's every going to scale because of that.

In this context, it would mean building a knowledge base the model can link to that is considered authoritative. So maybe the LLM is has some slop in it's training, and that causes it to try and output some junk, but if it can't match it to it's verified ground-truth KB it doesn't end up outputting it.

The problem is figuring out what is the authoritative sources.

It's when the models outputs are connected to sources.

So for example, you might have a company chatbot that responds with a summary of a Confluence page it was trained on and a link to the source.

Doesn't eliminate hallucinations, but it does reduce them and gives you a chance to verify.

Yes, because auto-boxing is just compiling to Integer.getValue under the hood, the bytecode for Integer.getValue(1) and ((Integer) 1) is the same. They'll both compile to something like:

   iconst_1
   invokestatic java/lang/Integer.valueOf:(I)Ljava/lang/Integer

    new Integer(10) == new Integer(10) // true

Before value classes this would always be false. The only time comparing Integer objects with == could be true is if Integer object was create by going through Integer.valueOf (or obviously if they were the same object reference.) By default the cached values where -127 to 127, but that is tuneable at runtime.

> I'd love to see pledge/unveil on (upstream) Linux - but I'm not holding my breath

There is Landlock now, I believe it would be possible to implement unveil and pledge on top of that.

There are a number of licenses that are named MIT that are all similar, but not identical.

The "Expat" here is the MIT license variant. It is referring to the Expat XML parsing library that first used this license.

Usually when projects these days use an MIT license this is the version they use.

> It works great as long as you squint just a bit, ignoring that it generally calls for long,lat and is designed with the assumption of a world CRS.

I thought the spec allowed you to specify the CRS, but I just checked the RFC and they removed that from the 2016 specification and WGS84 is specified. It does allow for alternative CRS with prior arrangement, but like you said that does require a lot of care.

It's almost a certainty that you can't copyright code that was generated entirely by an AI.

Copyright requires some amount of human originality. You could copyright the prompt, and if you modify the generated code you can claim copyright on your modifications.

The closest applicable case would be the monkey selfie.

The thermal gradient in space is meaningless because there is hardly any matter to dump the energy into. This means you are entirely reliant on thermal radiation. If you look at the numbers given by Stefan-Boltzmann law you'd see that means to radiate a significant amount of energy you need a combination of a lot of surface area and high temperatures.

This means you need some sort of heat pump. For a practical example you can look at the ISS, which has what they call the "External Active Thermal Control System" (EATCS), it's a complicated system and it provides 70kW of heat rejection. A datacenter in space would need to massively scale up such a system in order to cool itself.

I love this book! I do wish there was a new edition that updated the version of Java used in the tree-walk interpreter. There's been some additions to the language, like sealed classes and exhaustive switches, that could really benefit the implementation.
