Copenhagen is an island and has been the capital of Denmark since 1433 when their island chief violently conquered the Danish mainland. He established a new capital and named it Koben-Havn (Cope-Havers) to mock mainlanders upset about being conquered.

Yes I don’t know any good engineers who talk about their code like it’s artisan bread. It’s like a locomotive, you can look at it and admire it, marvel at how powerful it is and how cleverly it is engineered. But its value is in what it does well, your code isn’t art. It doesn’t have value as art.

Ok I am thinking Brewster but if the forecast is bad then go with a lower altitude backup option like Luxmore, or Upper Caples, or Woolshed/Pinnacle, or Godley/Red Stag.

Long shot but does anyone know which are the best winter overnight hikes to do in NZ as a reasonably fit and prepared hiker on South Island, ideally in Otago, Canterbury, or Southland (yes I know I can ask DoC but they are so patronising it’s a waste of time)

People are mad about this but what happened to “fully automated luxury socialism”? What did you think “fully automated” meant? Vibes? Essays?

Perhaps the optics problem is mostly due to the fact that the left keeps talking about how stuff like AI, space rockets, giant computers, and nuclear power is evil? Do we really want to be the side that says “the future is and will be shit”? Why are we just giving away optimism as a political idea?

Honestly this is also all completely made up. The average Russian citizen knows little to nothing about the Time of Troubles and regards it as distant ancient history, not unlike if you asked an English person how the Tudors affect him today.

I feel it’s important for Australian football, men and women, club and international, that most football games are played in right sized rectangular stadiums. You can’t beat watching a game of football from the sides in a packed rectangular stadium, it’s a peak human experience.

This is interesting 👀 I ordered fortnightly disposable contact lenses this time instead of the monthly ones I had been using. But it’s the same lens! It’s made of the same silicon hydrogel (hydrogel = water retaining polymer). Same moisture content. Made in the same UK factory.

it was interesting to see a bunch of AI people suddenly start making BlueSky jokes about model scraping at Anthropic's expense — it's almost as if the LLM theft critique is grounded in something real and significant! nymag.com/intelligence...
Anthropic is a ripe target here as far as jokes about hypocrisy are concerned: It's pitched as the conscientious AI lab, but also it settled last year to pay out $1.5 billion to authors whose pirated books it used for training. These posts represent a fair critique of all of the big players, which have ingested enormous quantities of material created by others, often without permission, to build proprietary models over which they now claim something like authorship. The scrapers have become the scraped, their own powerful distillations of the world's information sampled, reconstituted, and distilled once more.The backlash here isn't just about that irony. Anthropic is, at the moment, the Al lab to beat and the company whose products are most responsible for recent speculation about how AI might blow up the economy.
As a result, mockery wasn't coming just from people whose content had been scraped by Anthropic or who generally object to the way LLM models are trained. It was coming from AI insiders who see big firms as pulling the ladder up or trying to fortify their early dominance with the help of regulators, copyright law, and government funding. Within the story of an international arms race, model distillation can be cast as a threat to national security and American economic competitiveness. Within some of the other stories about AI, it might look more like fear of competition in general: of cheaper models; of free, open-source models; and of the rapid commoditization of capabilities that, just a few months prior, were unique and prohibitively expensive to develop. The Al firms called out by Anthropic - DeepSeek, Moonshot, and MiniMax — make models that are open to use not just in China but in the U.S. and elsewhere and that are already competing for some of the same customers.
Moonshot's latest Kimi models seem to perform, for many functions, about as well as the best American models did in the middle of last year. DeepSeek, the arrival of which briefly sent the AI industry and the stock market into chaos, is expected to release a major model update imminently, which may help explain why the big labs are all speaking up at the same time.
