The idea of a scrolling window inside another scrolling window makes life difficult on mobile.

What this really makes clear is that you should neither trust people you work with nor share personal information with them.

Came here to say this! You beat me to it.

In fairness, MacOS, iOS, Linux, and Android were all derived from BSD.

And the site! Is it 1996? Impossible to navigate. Tiny photos. Zero information about contest parameters or where the "birds and buildings" (all the same) came from.

There is enough info online, this is just the survey. Yes site looks like shit, but cool they ask the people.

The actual page announcing the contestants is terrible and missing the info I'm complaining about. The survey is arguably worse. It just ask people to choose among random bills. But that's not how the contest will work. They'll choose one artist's entire submission, not the most popular individual bills from the survey.

There are only two types of thinkers: people who think people can be divided into types, and people who don't.

I watched the event live, and nothing about it was humorous, least of all the suggestion that the United States would even consider for a moment undoing one of our strongest Constitutional protections, term limits on the presidency.

I'm not saying I agree with the sentiment, or think during the current discourse it isn't a very touchy subject to try and pull humor out of...but if there's any event to take the President's words at the highest chance of being a 'joke', this is that event.

You may not think he’s funny, or you can think a joke is in poor taste, but the correspondents dinner is one where jokes are told. Nothing there is supposed to be taken too seriously.

The author seems surprised that the downloaded content is only "loosely connected," like a blog post about selling a house and a porn flick about a realtor. But that just proves that no humans were involved in scoping the content at all.

AI training data was vacuumed up without any consideration for the source or even the content itself. The fundamental way LLM models are built invites you to do just that. To get to the biggest "L" (for "large") you must suck up as much content as possible.

They brought it on themselves, by design, and are only now finding out what they actually ingested.

Where are you getting the "blog post about selling a house" from? The examples given are "Bajillion Dollar Properties S01E07" (which is titled "Happy Ending" and involves real estate brokers getting massages: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bajillion_Dollar_Propertie%24#... ) and "First Time Home Buyer Anal Fantasy" which I assume is actual porn. That seems much more like a human expanding their porn collection at work (and perhaps being disappointed that the first one they downloaded is just a comedy) than an algorithmic crawler.

Like so many things in computing, we like to make up words and also reuse old ones for completely different things.

I'd say "hosting" means making something available to you in the cloud. Model makers don't offer that.

They sell "inference," which is a compute task with real hardware costs for them. The task runs against their model, which is not hosted for you.
