It's "artificial" intelligence

It's not "intelligence" --- real or artificial.

It's "fake intelligence" --- it simulates human understanding by using statistical patterns without actually having any real semantic capability.

Fluency without wisdom is the most dangerous form of brilliance.

So which one is recommended for running on servers in production?

this is just regurgitating the manufacturer's claim. I believe it when I see it. Most of display energy use is to turn on the OLED/backlight. They're claiming, because our display flickers less, it's 48% more efficient now.

I don't think that's a realistic suggestion as as the quantity of applications are huge who are going to spend time reviewing them one by one. And and even then it's not realistic to expect that that undesirable things can be detected as these things can be hidden externally for instance or obfuscated

F-Droid exists and they have a much better track record than Google. I'm not actually serious, I just think if there's a single app repo that should be allowed to install apps without a scary 24h verification cooldown, it's Google's proprietary closed-source app store that needs the scary process, not F-Droid.

Users don't have to wait 24 hours because Google Play store already has registered developers. Scammers can be held liable when Google knows who the developer of the malicious app is.

Really though? Who is in jail right now for Play Store malware offenses? Or are we just talking about some random person in China or Russia who signed up with a prepaid card and fake information had their Google account shut off eventually.

I'll give you that, enforcement of the rules can sometimes fail. But scamming & malware is a global industry, definitely not limited to state-funded actors in those two countries (which is what I think you're referring to).

I think compared to the alternatives, this is the best answer.

Even if you are a bank or whatever, you shouldn't store global secrets on the app itself, obfuscated or not. And once you have good engineering practices to not store global secrets (user specific secrets is ok), then there is no reason why the source code couldn't be public.


It's not 3x because of 3 runs; can be more token, can be less.

The way of thinking it is, telling Claude to tackle the problem 3 times, each time it may or may not use different approach, fix or improve on things it did previously.


That's right. However if you use the v3 operator, you get three parallel versions being built, and then combined depending on which resolver you use (pick, merge, and compare).

This. Postgres is slow for large inserts compared to eg. Clickhouse.

This slowness is mostly because of OLTP features


This mirrors my experience.

If you want the agent to be more aware of the tool, prompt it to create a skill for whatever bash commands you wish


It's a dumb idea actually, as these panels will be covered in brake dust, sand, leaves, etc.

If you're interested, check EEVblog's video on this


No the murders happen in camps eg. What's happening to the Uyghurs.

That said, they also use them as slave labors.

Maybe that's what ICE is going to do with the plan to setup large detention centers in the US


While it's correct to criticize China's authoritarian policies and lack of civic and religious freedoms that are often taken for granted here, it's still very much a pot-calling-the-kettle-black situation. The US's treatment, both historical and modern, of it's black, native, and immigrant populations have been just as or even more brutal than China's crackdown on Islamism. Mass incarceration and criminalization of the poorest sections of society in the US are at levels far beyond what exists in any other country in the world. Political corruption and nepotism have been normalized for decades, and the deep-seated culture of elite impunity is apparent in the total lack of consequences from the Epstein files. US citizens should not be wasting time criticizing other countries for problems our own country has yet to fix.


Look up the "zero idleness" program at CECOT where the Trump administration is sending deportees.


They've been successfully blocked (for now). No current deportees are headed there so far as I know. But they are busy trying to build the system right here at home.

ICE detention is already beginning to resemble the Salvadoran prison system.

Due process rights get violated. Detainees get shuttled around to different facilities to be lost in the system through engineered incompetence, making it difficult for legal counsel or family to find them, or even to know who has been taken. They subject them to torturous conditions, abuse, and often hold people who've committed no crimes for months.

They are thwarting oversight and defying court orders left and right. And they are trying to scale up like 10x+. And once they do, the detention system won't just be for immigrants. They are going to target anyone they want.

D's have successfully blocked DHS funding for now, but if they (or SCOTUS) allow any of this to go forward, things are likely to get far worse


you can use Claude Code with these models. You just need to pass the right env vars. Have a look at the client setup guide on z.ai


Interesting—thanks!
