My phone wasn't designed to stalk other people. These systems are.

Thanks for clarifying

What does that matter? You're the one making the decision, not nature. Personally I would give anything to be able to have a child, so honestly I don't understand why anyone would want to terminate a pregnancy. I'm willing to admit that people's lives are complicated and it's not my place to make that decision for others. But we shouldn't help people hide from what they're doing.

That machinery and attached industries would keep on paddling for a while.

Why? Because it isn’t that clear cut. You can take the position that it is commentary on immigration, demographics, media bias, rather than racial animus.

If you’re gonna proclaim someone a big racist or Nazi (another favorite), you’re gonna have to explain the diversity of the workforce of their companies…


I did consider it at one point the problem is that the prompt and instruction following for formating and extracting tags, nouns etc and the json returns are unreliable if you switch models and especially if it's an older model. right now i'm using Gemma 4 and works smoothly so it would need to be BYOK for gemma only which is doable. If more people ask I could do it sure.

Not sure how to fix but I do miss the Private Selection™ Belgian Chocolate Milk from Kroger. Why in the world would they discontinue such a unique excellent tasting product, it's a bit similar to the Dutch Nutricia brand.. ugh. shame.. https://www.kroger.com/p/private-selection-belgian-chocolate...

That's very much not true. No one is lobbying to make programming in C illegal.


I have this on my Amazon Kindle and I freaking LOVE it!

Paired with BookOrbit [0] and using plugins like BookShelf, BookEnds, and KOAssistant I have the best reading setup ever.

The speed of this on my Kindle is _insane_ compared to the stock software. I'm not talking about page turning, that was fine on both, but navigating menus is way faster.

It was a little finicky to configure but once I got a feel for it I didn't have a problem and 15 books read later since I installed it a few months ago and I never touch the settings.

My favorite plugins:

BookShelf: Best UI for viewing my books by author/series/etc IMHO. Much better than the Kindle default UI and much snappier

BookEnds: Configure the header and footer of each page to show what info you care about most. There are community configs you can test out easily and download right on your kindle if you like them

KOAssistant: highlight some text and throw it at an LLM with a provided prompt or your custom one. This was invaluable when reading the Hornblower series which used a lot of older english words/phrasing as well as nautical terms (which I'm completely unfamiliar with). I enjoyed the books way more since I could figure it out inside my kindle instead of constantly having to pick up my phone to look up a phrase.

BookOrbit: It provides a plugin for KOReader that syncs your progress, annotations, etc.

In some sense you're firing a human and hiring a new one each time you start a new conversation / clear the context window.

My point is at the systems design level. LLMs as components are a substitute for people, not regular software, and should be engaged and secured accordingly.


In the case of Prolog, term and goal expansion are considered macro mechanisms. Operators generally not, but they're an arbitrary compile-time mechanism anyways. The characterization of it not being "compile-time macro execution" is strange, what do you think these things are doing?

Eh, the empire aka, protection of free trade as a service is still alive and well with no viable alternative on the horizon. Every other empire is either not free trade or - just plain mercantilism and thus will exploit way more then the quite "idealist" us- trump is just a taste of what the others in power would feel like.

It's a mistranslation, the original quote is "Une enquête en recherche des causes de la mort est ouverte afin de déterminer l’origine du décès, aucun élément suspect n’ayant été découvert sur place par les services primo-intervenants. Les investigations sont en cours", which translates to "no suspicious element was found", not "no suspect was found"

This. If they don’t feel pressure to pay, they won’t.

More people should make them pay.


Part of reading a document is that in the middle of it, it may ask the reader to do something. That is true for humans too. Sometimes they might not realize that the instructions are malicious or are coerced to comply.

A simple example: Let’s say I know that you have a human assistant reading your email, summarizing and filtering it, and then forwarding on the important ones to you.

I could write an email that is directed towards that person with a bribe, threat, or other incentive to forward me your next password reset email.


> They've been crying and screaming so loud for years that there's pretty much nothing more they can do to communicate when the wolf actually becomes real.

1.) There was no change in how real the wolf is.

2.) They, literally they, are the wolf. Not "roque ai" or some other bullshit.

3.) Of course I still dont believe them.


They can trail an antenna behind the boat underwater that receives low frequency radio waves carrying short signals that basically tell them to come up to a higher depth to receive a longer message.

I think you probably understand how the cart is going to be put before the horse here.

I wonder how often a medicine that would have worked in humans doesn't transfer to mice, resulting in it being rejected.

Can I install Fil-C on Windows without WSL or Cygwin?

Definitely not. It was my first time using Sol Ultra, and I did not expect it to run for 12hr+ continuously. Previously with 5.5 I had to coax it to go for longer than a half hour, so I just started a run and forgot to check back in on it. I think I'm learning how to use it more effectively now, and I could see a scenario where that could actually be worthwhile, but it's a bit of a shot in the dark if you let it go that long uninterrupted.

Without AI there is no future US economy. You're all in.

And here I thought today couldn't get any worse. :(

Yeah and like the majority of open source software, the UI is garbage and unintuitive.

I set up KOReader with a jailbroken Kindle. DammitJeff has a good video introducing the topic. UI is definitely awkward, but it is awesome and pretty "hands off" when set up. It also has built-in support for OPDS so downloads from places like "Project Gutenberg" are a breeze. Also, if you are a homelabber with stuff like Calibre & Calibre Sync, it all works as you'd expect.

That's too much effort. Should have been a browser extension that uses ollama so it can run with local models or maybe even openrouter...

I ran into the same issue when building ProForta.com. My solution was to build a companion app that pulls data (including Garmin) via Health Connect. Right now, it seems that every hardware platform from Oura to Garmin is trying to build their moat around user's data. That's not OK - users need access to the combination of all their data to derive meaningful health benefits. Thats the guiding principle behind lifecare.id (https://lifecare.id)

they also don't drive on the left, they drive everywhere
