Another point of the Rwandan genocide that's important to remember, is the party who eventually committed the genocide spent months talking about how the other side was about to use extreme violence and they were really the victim. This allowed them to preemptively use violence "in self defense."
I truly think by 2028 we'll have integrated chip systems that'll be able to run opus 4.8 level models at ~500 watts at acceptable performance. Honestly I think now is the worst time to invest in AI hardware. Get your harness ready and processes perfected with hosted models, and wait a few years to buy hardware to transition to running models locally
You're being silly. The actual technical people are using Claude for implementation and relying on MCP servers to use Codex 5.5 and Gemini 3.1 pro to build teams, councils, and long running senior engineer conversations within Claude to handle the technical bits that're too complicated for Claude.
I've always said we should build an open-source flock that makes all data available for free to anyone, in a ploy to get proper regulations passed. But they'd probably just make it illegal to track police/government cars then break down your door and arrest you for tracking unmarked ICE agent vehicles
No, it was driving towards a cliff and deciding to jump out of the car instead of pressing the breaks. If you're costing at work, worried about being laid off some day, the last thing you do is just quit; you job hunt and try to change habits. Pretending like we have to feel immense pain to strengthen the economy is the quasi moralistic reasoning of a moron
Yes, there's every reason to believe the market will weed out the AI slop. The problem is, just like with stocks, the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent. While we all wait for executives to learn that code rigor matters, we still have bills to pay. After a year when they start trying to hire people to clean up their mess, we'll be the ones having to shovel a whole new level of shit; and the choice will be between that and starving.
As someone who also falls into camp one, and absolutely loves that we have thinking computers now, I can also recognize that we're angling towards a world of hurt over the next few years while a bunch of people in power have to learn hard lessons we'll all suffer for.
It's honestly incredible to me that there are people who truly believe these two things are comparable:
> Mr. Dernbach, don’t play Russian roulette with H’s life
Verses posting images of an arsenal, writing they need to buy guns for the upcoming election, and also:
> The time is right for a presidential assassination or two. First Joe then Kamala!!!
One is clearly threatening murder towards public officials and showing themselves taking steps to enact their plan. The other is a concerned citizen exercising their first amendment right. I have to believe the people saying these are the same are bots, because the alternative is just so pathetic.
I don't know how you think this is worse than Renee Good's murder. She was shot in the temple through the driver side window while being directed by an Ice agent to drive away. She was then denied medical care at the scene, and local police were denied access to investigate while the shooter was shepherded out of state as quickly as possible
I really wish these agentic systems had built in support for spinning up containers with a work tree of the repo. Then you could have multiple environments and a lot more safety.
I'm also surprised at the move to just using shell commands. I'd think an equally general purpose tool with a more explicit API could make checking permissions on calls a lot more sensible.
I don't think Proxmox is anywhere near ready for that sort of shift. It's interesting what a big hole in the market VMWare is leaving and nothing quite fills it. OpenStack is the closest, but way more complicated than VMWare, and doesn't work at all for smaller deployments.
It should be a matter of right. My parents mutilated me as a child because they denied me healthcare. We should not allow parents to deny their children healthcare which leads to their permanent disfiguration. That's disgusting.
If you think it'd be wrong to force a cis kid to be trans, then it's also wrong to force a trans kid to be cis.
They've said it explicitly, this is a bloodless coup (so long as Democrats allow it). They see themselves as destroying America and creating their own country with completely different rights and laws, and they're well on their way.
