@sickburnbro "Sure, your math and engineering skills are off the chart, but this other applicant wrote a better essay." That's the nice interpretation of this. What they really mean: "white and asian men need not apply, but we will get in trouble if we say that."

@SuperDicq It would be $4k per year for 10 developers. I think you would be surprised how much businesses spend for software licensing/cloud services.

@SuperDicq Enterprise cursor licenses cost twice as much as "pro" 😆

@SuperDicq I run open source as much as possible. Cursor is about $200 per year. I can't even get started on local open source AI without a significant hardware investment. A local rig to run deepseek costs $6000. And that's ignoring that cursor works out of the box today with no hassle. If there's anything open source that's anywhere close, I haven't heard of it. Next time I buy hardware I will definitely buy something more ai capable, but my current hardware isn't. I'm not planning to replace it for a few years.

@SuperDicq Rofl. I haven't run into this. I had it analyze a 10k+ line program and it didn't complain

@sun this is one of the first times I used it. I was curious to try it because it is supposedly less restricted than other gai. I haven't paid for jt.

@moth_ball @kaia In the early 10s I was working at a small software company. We got a support call for some dos software the company had sold in the early 90s. The CEO was the only employee left from that time period.

France is now demanding backdoors in messaging apps. We should withdraw from NATO over this. Weak encryption is a national security risk.

@sickburnbro Guarantee you it's fund managers who are voting stock they are managing on behalf of the public. Vast majority of stocks these days are owned by funds (ETFs, mutual funds) and public pension funds. We need to require fund managers to allow the actual stock owners to vote their own shares.

@augustus @sun I agree with forking the chain. The DAO set the precedent. Some people see it as compromising the chain. I see it as the community overcoming an attack.

@sickburnbro We never got a full accounting of this. There were hundreds of conservative groups affected. The media screamed for months that it was a "customer service issue" that also affected liberal groups. There were SEVEN liberal groups affected, and they all had their issues resolved in a few months. Conservative groups were held up for YEARS. Many of them simply dissolved rather than fight the government.
There was also an incident where Obama named a bunch of conservative donors in a speech. One of those donors came forward later and said he was subsequently audited by four different government agencies. He also said that other named donors faced similar harassment, but were afraid to speak up.

@sun I ran out of steam in the seventh grade.
I'm actually pretty motivated right now. My profession is going to be completely upended by ai in the next decade. I think it's a huge opportunity for people who can learn to effectively use ai.

@arcana This was my first thought when I heard of Apple ending e2ee in the uk. There is zero reason to risk US personnel because the uk wants a surveillance state. NATO and five eyes should both require strong e2ee in both the private and public sector.

@sun A couple years ago I found out my dad took lsd and had a mental breakdown before he started dating my mom. Before that he was in a rock band and apparently smoking pot all the time. I had known he was in a band. He is a very good guitar player and still plays sometimes. I never would have guessed he used drugs when he was young.

@VD15 I wonder if mailing a magnet that strong would fuck up postal computers

@SuperDicq I started on Linux 2.4. And I think the bootloader was called lilo. Grub was a major innovation.

@sun @j Musk provided some of the initial seed money for openai. If openai was a for profit company from the beginning, Musk's stake would be worth a ton of money. Altman is about to do a deal with himself to become a billionaire. Musk is absolutely correct to call Altman a swindler.
