ill take your ram and leave you for dead

big news, moratoriums are a-go. let's not entertain the implication that this moratorium is out of concern for new yorkers, and if more moratoriums crop op, then it clearly means that data center build up is very much materially constrained and they're hiding this slowdown by manifesting government red-tape from the void (it's not because i can't keep the insane pace, it's the government who wont let me!), if i'm right this is probably the most bearish news yet but maybe i'm stupid i dunno

Reposting here. Gonna start using this as anthropic fable 5 will be locked behind API and this costs 80% less. flood

China Just Completely Erased America's AI Lead — Kimi K3 Changed the Game "Overnight"

<The US's long-held advantage in the AI race is over, Axios reports. Chinese company Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 model, released Thursday, beat American giants Anthropic and OpenAI in Arena benchmarks at a fraction of the cost.

>"The entire game has changed. I think this is going to cause full-scale panic in some places," analyst Kim Isenberg told Axios.

<Kimi's open weights also let users customize the model for their own needs, making it an increasingly attractive alternative to US options. Chinese models were previously considered months behind, now that gap has vanished.

This is pitting smaller VCs/seed VCs against bigger more established funds who are going all in on anthropic or OAI like a16z. AI startups like Cursor existentially need open weight models whereas they're an existential threat to Ant/OAI. That's right, it's another episode of inter-bourgeoisie conflict over capital controls and govt capture.

>The California Ideology is just the leftoid hippie version of the Epstein/Thiel ideology

the thing to understand about fascism in all its many various shapes and forms is that it's not really an ideology. this is what people like marx and stallman failed to understand, that it's not ideology that they are battling with here, it's not based in reason, it is simply mental illness, it is a biological manufacturing defect in the human brain that makes people believe that they can become god, and it's not something you can discredit and prevail against through a countermanding ideology. that's why the silicon valley mutants were able to flip flop so easily from what seemed to be one ideology to a completely different ideology, i.e. from playing the benevolent paternalistic liberal god to playing the malevolent arrogant neoreactionary god. because it was never really an ideology, it was just a god complex.

>That's what Todd Howards said about his Bethesda slop video games

it's what that guy who claimed to invented a water-powered car would say, he'd point to his dune buggy with the temporarily-running engine and say "look, it works!" and sort of gloss over the part about how long the engine could continue running and how the electrolysis machine could turn the water into hydrogen and refill the hydrogen tank faster than the engine consumed it.

the LLM works some of the time, sure. just like a broken clock works some of the time.

>it is a biological manufacturing defect in the human brain that makes people believe that they can become god
stuff like fascism or nationalism does not exist in pre-literate societies. it's not some drive or an innate impulse, it's as abstract as it gets, as purely an ideological concept as you can muster. people who cannot read and thus be capable of high abstraction cannot even conceive of these concepts

>>33802

written language isn't any more of an abstraction than spoken language is and everything humans do is driven by innate impulse, including developing writing systems.

>written language isn't any more of an abstraction than spoken language
wrong. read walter ong.

hmm graphene defenders have become quiet here… i guess i have won?!!!

we are just waiting for the mods to ban your ass for the most retarded ragebait ever made but they are severely incompetent

FRIENDLY REMINDER:

By default, GrapheneOS routes your traffic through its own DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) service. Since this is an opt-out setting, the developers can theoretically log your real IP address and every domain you visit from day one. Universal HTTPS prevents them from seeing specific subpages or passwords, but they can still track your active hours and build a behavioral profile of the websites you use.

TLDR: THEY CAN TRACK YOU.

OH BROTHER

>Filters shouldn't be costly.
Well, if we're using LLMs at all they would be from the user perspective.

>They likely can't. This is why you give users the options to configure these filters, because it allows them to do aggressive filtering at their own risk.
This tracks, it's a good idea. Having two tiers of filtering, one for basic federation (meeting basic social standards of the fediverse) and another tier with per instance filtering you could make it federate well, at least on the level of the Group. I also like the idea that sense we're working with trees of a single inReplyTo link per post you can go ahead and hide entire trees at once. Making bump ordering work with this is a tractable problem.

Went ahead and got the creation of Note and Article objects, and the display of the catalog done today with the help of "opencode". No file attachments at the moment of thread pages. Had to replace the >!spoiler!< syntax with the more contemporary ||spoiler|| so that the quotes would parse correctly.

Today had opencode add the thread posts, I didn't really like the way it structured the model code so I had to fix this.

Had another idea: a "difficult" POW for newly created accounts. This is roughly equivalent to banning everyone by default and having a default ban length. With this you could have actual user Actors instead of just the Group, but purely optional usernames, and still have bans that make some sense. Sort of think I no longer have the energy to dedicate to this project. Might just wait for the LLMs to get good enough to write this themselves.

Pragmatic enough to be completed.
Performance somewhat lacking.

i'm not using a browser called dildo

for a web browser to be called a "web browser" it needs to be able to browse the web. dillo cannot browse 99% of what is known today as "the web", therefore it is no longer a web browser. see how that works?

This is the stupidest way you could pitch Dillo, but it's been a while since I've tried Dillo, so I'll see if it has ublock style filters and javascript whitelisting yet.

You also posted this on Kiwifarms and it wasn't funny there either

post that on texttotalk.org

God I fucking hate how everything has a Discord now, It almost makes me wish the old php forums could make a comeback, regardless of how toxic they could be sometimes.

yeah i dont think its bad its just gonna make a second internet that doesnt suck or have the drawbacks of the darknet

I mean if it is an open standard it shouldn't

It's not yet certain that laws of one country will be applied to citizens of another country where such laws don't exist. They could do this with cookie notices required in EU because it doesn't break websites, but this would break them completely by definition.

Western, particularly burger Internet has almost absolute monopoly outside of a few isolated countries like China and Russia. And it encompasses much more than just propaganda, there's a lot of technical and hobby stuff hosted on burger servers. If I want to look at source code or docs or submit a patch to a certain library hosted on a popular git hosting server, then in most cases I have no alternative but to visit to burger servers. Same goes for any other banal and hobby stuff, there's a lot of useful information out there hosted on burger servers. Cloudflare and Google captcha faggotry is already hellish enough.

I know, but those will be archived (or not, maybe you shouldn't use discord as a forum) and then moved to alternatives. Like lemmygrad did with the genzedong subreddit
