its so funny how Ed Zitron crawled back into his hole after the Anthropic S-1
Reddit's win over SerpAPI and Perplexity sets a dangerous precident, and will embolden gatekeepers to make the web less open.
Anti-Circumvention Laws Raise the Cost of Knowledge
The vast amount of information on the open web requires researchers and journalists to adapt with new tools to make sense of it all. Checking facts, gauging public opinion, and other lines of inquiry ...

My personal feelings about AI & its social & economic impact aside: if you're not using it to audit the software you write, the net effect is that you are leaving the door wide open for scammers, identity thieves, and domestic spies. A horrible choice to have to make, but you cant ignore it anymore.
Just FYI everyone not using AI at least at GLM 5.3 level to secure their systems already is basically fucked, and the aversion to this reality is making things catastrophically worse
Actual is back. We migrated everything to bare metal. Service should be restored and a new update is available for your client which closes any upstream exposure to the massive amount of CVEs floating around here recently

Coming here to clarify as I did on X. Actual platform and relay are down. Nothing of yours is compromised and your machines are safe. Railway, our upstream provider for some services, leaked every customer’s environment variables. Everything is already bulletproof-patched.
Agreed. Have you ever talked to someone who works at a non-credit union non-top 10 community bank?
I get that a lot of terrible stuff happens in tech but I'm worried that the tech world is becoming a kind of scapegoat used by the American middle class to pretend they're normal and don't also engage in Deep Evil
I forgot to mention that the Concept Department of Infrastructure moved core servers to a boat off the coast of Norway
We are about to run out of electricity once the two DGX Stations arrive
I am so freaking glad I got into hardware. Most of what I’m writing now is in Rust and Assembly. Typescript is like going back to the starter zone where I one-shot everything. I am absolutely thrilled with my work
There is so much alpha in going backwards and fixing human inefficiencies in code, or tradeoffs that were designed for human maintenance
Introducing tsrs: a Rust port of the TypeScript compiler 🦀 We are not forking TypeScript! ◆ In close collab with the TypeScript team ◆ Up to 8x faster than TS 7.0 & ~70% less memory ◆ Runs in WASM (works in your browser & workers) ◆ Soon part of Oxc npx tsrs blog.cloudflare.com/typescript-r...
AI bubble doesn’t pop = sm103 buildouts = Actual wins AI bubble pops = sm120 and consumer hw rapidly repriced cheaper = moves local = Actual wins divine mandate lmao
You an idiot: I can't wait for the AI bubble because I hate AI and I want it to go away Me, a genius: I can't wait for the AI bubble because I love AI and I want it freed from the freaks in the US.
Some updates. e now supports GLM 5.3 as well as NVFP4 for Nemotron models. FP8s on actual.inc e run faster than vLLM’s NVFP4 at all widths. ctx len is 1M
sometimes this website feels like its filled with the kind of people who would rewatch futurama past the age of 25 and not cringe

just to understand the level of scale and how inference bound it is, there is 1 task at my workplace that uses 2.8x Delve Towns worth of GLM 5.3 agents to complete — most ‘ecology’ (when not memecoins or atproto) is in private. 99.5% of it by my estimate
A study of how agents form institutions, where the researchers' own partly undisclosed agents act as the institutions, and where humans write about 13% of posts, is weak evidence for any claim about "human–AI coexistence"; this should be fairly obvious
Current Affairs published an article titled “Why We’re Banning AI”, but they buried the lede… they aren’t actually banning AI at all! They’re chill with their workers using AI. An interesting culture war artifact full of cognitive dissonance: www.currentaffairs.org/news/why-wer...
I am writing Harry Potter fanfiction about Malfoín (same book, everyone is just Irish now)
Malfoid is quietly becoming a symbol of the West's cultural counter-revolution.
People misunderstand what he’s talking about because they haven’t seen it but he’s completely right
