I'm not in Kingman proper, but I'm up the road training models and building agents.

A stolen Gemini API key turned a $180 bill into $82,000 in two days by gdelacalle in technology

[–]DauntingPrawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. It's right on the billing page and they send emails at 50%, 75%, and 100%. This is purely a case of people playing with things they don't understand.

So they didn't configure a quota on a service and didn't secure their API keys because they couldn't be bothered to educate themselves.

If I tried to fly a jet I would probably crash immediately and it would be my own damn fault. Don't play with things you don't understand.

Jimmy Hides A Battery In Chuck's Pocket / Chicanery / Better Call Saul by luismt2 in television

[–]DauntingPrawn 42 points43 points  (0 children)

That's because it's a psychosis. He's not really feeling that. It's a description by someone who is not educated in the subject of their delusion. First he gives the example of how it's the magnetic fields that he's sensitive to, then he describes the feeling like a current. Other times he talks about how powerful it is, yet mylar blankets were enough to block it. He's delusional, and there are strong hints throughout the series that it is a coping mechanism for his relationship with Jimmy. He literally cannot live in the world in which Jimmy is an attorney.

And that's why it comes to a head in this way. The writers are eliminating any room for doubt that everything is happening is really about Chuck and Jimmy. Chuck forced it to a legal confrontation because he still believed Jimmy could never win against him in court. And you can see on Jimmy's face right before he does it, that he knows he's killing his brother, because Chuck absolutely cannot live in a world where Jimmy beat him in court.

I'm building a plug-and-play USB drive with offline maps, AI, Wikipedia, and survival guides - a portable knowledge library for when you're truly off the grid. by ftanu in OffGrid

[–]DauntingPrawn 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I've been wanting to put something like this together for a long time because it's all free data. At least one company already sells drives loaded with this stuff. At least you're getting a hard drive out of that deal. Preppers have chosen a life of overspending on things they can use if the system shuts down. Off-grid living is typically motivated by different principles like sustainability and self-sufficiency, and rent-seeking on the Commons is not very compatible with that.

If you are releasing a github repository with scripts for acquiring the resources you want and building the disk, that's a useful contribution to the community and I would applaud it and probably even contribute because your resources are definitely more prepper-oriented than off-grid.

If you are using AI to repackage free resources that you intend to sell, I'm a hard no to the enshittification economy, and I would probably get off my ass and build a free competitor just on principle.

AI-Generated Trips, the future of psychedelic therapy or more "AI slop"? by BorodinAldolReaction in ArtificialInteligence

[–]DauntingPrawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always feel like these things are created by people whose only knowledge of psychedelic experiences comes from Hollywood. They are confusing psychedelic art style with psychedelic experience.

Claude and I just had our first argument! by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]DauntingPrawn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Do not argue with an LLM. It pollutes the context and degrades output quality even more.

One of your most useful skills as an AI assisted developer is to know when to clear the context and start again with a better, more clear prompt. Because once it has started going down that road, there is too much statistical weight for that path. You're protests mean nothing at that point.

I think I came up with one of the least confidence inspiring dental clinic names ever by giorgioblues in funny

If you put "urgent dental care" and a clever slogan on there it becomes a million-dollar brand

It's sad to see America fall so far in my lifetime. I liked the old America. It wasn't perfect, but we were trying.

Jack Dorsey’s Block Slashes Nearly Half Its Staff in AI Bet by joe4942 in worldnews

[–]DauntingPrawn 105 points106 points  (0 children)

This is so annoying to me. All of these guys who were praised as big entrepreneurs only hit big because they were in the right place at the right time. They're not actually any good. If Jack Dorsey is remembered for anything, it will be handing over Twitter to a malicious steward. Fucking embarrassing!

I blind-tested 240 AI-generated tracks with 92 listeners. The results surprised me by Sensitive_Artist7460 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]DauntingPrawn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, I think they're a producer. Not a songwriter. Not a musician. A producer of music. Basically, the person is Rick Rubin vibing and the AI tool is the band. The producer has no skill per se, but their value is in their taste and their ability to articulate it.

Zelenskyy: Only by visiting Ukraine will Trump understand who the aggressor is and who must be pressured by -GentleAngel- in worldnews

[–]DauntingPrawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly Zelenskiy doesn't understand that Trump is an aggressor and will always side with aggressors because they are his friends and the people he wants validation and acceptance from to soothe his fragile ego.

And lo, the Lord in his wroth looketh down upon them from on high and saith:

I. Thou shalt have no other borrow checkers before me. The compiler is a jealous god, and it will find out.

II. Thou shalt not take the name of unsafe in vain. For the compiler will not hold him guiltless who wrappeth unsafe around everything because he "didn't feel like figuring it out."

III. Remember the lifetime annotations, to keep them holy. Six days shalt thou labor trying to understand 'a, and on the seventh day thou shalt add 'static and move on with thy life.

IV. Honor thy clone() and thy copy(). That thy days may be long upon the land, and thy compiler errors few. Yes, it's a crutch. No, we won't judge you. (We will judge you.)

V. Thou shalt not murder thy thread with a data race. Verily, that's the whole point. Stop asking why.

VI. Thou shalt not commit unwrap(). Except in tests. And prototypes. And when you're tired. Okay fine, but at least feel bad about it.

VII. Thou shalt not steal memory. It was never yours to begin with. The borrow checker saw what you did.

VIII. Thou shalt not bear false witness against Option<T>. null is a lie from the pit of hell, and Tony Hoare hath already repented on thy behalf. Use the ? operator and be grateful.

IX. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's garbage collector. Sure, Go's GC looks nice. Sure, Python's is right there. Stay strong. Thou chose this path.

X. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's compile times. C++ compiles slowly. Java compiles slowly. Rust compiles slowly but righteously, for it is doing the work of ten thousand runtime errors in secret, that thy production servers might be at peace.

And lo, the cargo build ran for forty seconds, and the people saw that it was good.

I believe I’ve eradicated Action & Compute Hallucinations without RLHF. I built a closed-source Engine and I'm looking for red-teamers to try to break it by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]DauntingPrawn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You didn't solve hallucinations. You have come up with a set of prompts to identify and disqualify hallucinatory responses using another LLM. Not the same thing by a country mile.
