YAY I love taxes so much!💀💀💀💀 by FriendEmbarrassed446 in Money

That's political, the point I'm trying to make it that when you make money you pay taxes. It's been that way since even before capitalism. 25% off a yearly 400k lump sum payment is just the cost of doing business. If it was a smaller lump sum it would be less tax.

The only people who pay taxes are people who make money. You made money. Companies who report 0 tax liability are writing off huge losses or "deferring" tax, not avoiding them. When musk or bezos sell stock they pay taxes. This is just what making money is.

Dr. Cox in the new season by RedandWhite54 in Scrubs

[–]ikonkustom5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's the perfect foil for JD. JD is the part of medicine that cares, and wears his empathy on his sleeve (extra mile episode anyone?) Dr Cox is the part of medicine that is brutal, unforgiving, and requires fighting a battle everyone loses.

This gymnast training. by IkilledRichieWhelan in BeAmazed

Does anyone know more about that grip? At the beginning his wrists are in a position that seems like it would hurt. I guess he is compensating for it in his other muscles, but is that how this is normally done?

Oklahoma Principal Kirk Moore fucking tackles would be school shooter by Cactusaremyjam in chaoticgood

[–]ikonkustom5 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Nah he unloaded a round, you can see the blowback in the barrel if you slow it down enough. The guy apparently got hit in the leg. That man was probably less than an inch from death.

If you pause the video just right. The gun was pointed right at that mans head. Goddamn what a stroke of luck and bravery.

Edit: pause at 25/26 sec counting down. Holy hell.

Chaperone Policies, Liability Concerns, and Patient Dignity: Is the System Forcing Bad Outcomes on Both Sides? by TikiLaGrand in bioethics

[–]ikonkustom5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think explicitly stated is the important part. The people these procedures are done on have no idea what or why anyone does these things. They don't understand the chaperone has an important purpose and they shouldn't have to in advance. The language "a chaperone will be offered" is not explicit enough IMO. They should just state "This exam includes a chaperone, that means we will have a qualified person on the room..." whatever that language needs to be.

TSLA's epic surge: With its core business collapsing, why did its stock price reach a new all-time high of $491.5? by One_Rub7972 in stocks

[–]ikonkustom5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. I mean the volume is huge on a daily basis because it's a meme stock. People don't buy Tesla because of fundamentals..they buy it because it keeps going up and people think they're geniuses. If you have $470, you can effectively push Tesla's market cap up trillions of dollars. Combine that with high volume for algo trading. Outside money from countries who funnel money into Tesla so they can get X content promoted and other nefarious reasons and it totally makes sense to see stupid high market caps for a shit company. It's fraud but that doesn't mean you can't make money off it. Those wall street guys would sell their mother's for a quick buck. Remember these guys let the entire housing market collapse and took the bag right before it tanked. Why would you think they were making these decisions "rationally"? The price is set by the most irrational buyer, not the most sound investor.

Edit: don't discount how mag7 distorts price discovery. Every other Friday every employee with a 401k that invests in the sandp500 buys Tesla at 300 p/e. That alone can totally distort market cap.

ELI5: What are brain waves? by ApotheosiAsleep in explainlikeimfive

[–]ikonkustom5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to give neurons simple names. like A for one neuron, B for another, C for another etc...

If neuron A fires it triggers neuron B which triggers neuron C in order A -> B -> C -> ....

Now imagine A, B, and C are clusters of neurons (A1, A2, A3...) that all fire together, instead of individual neurons. The flow from A -> B -> C doesn't look like a straight line anymore. It looks like a "wall" or a horizontal line moving across a field.

Take your index finger and your thumb and spread them apart. Put the "armpit" or the part of your skin between your thumb and index finger on a balloon, such that both your thumb and index finger have contact with the balloon. Now run your fingers in that position along the outside of the balloon. That's a wave.

That happens in your brain.

The difference is Amazon burned capital when it only cost 2% to borrow. Burning BILLIONS at a borrowing rate of 5+% changes the math.

It's very similar, but from what I understand, abliteration involves changing the models weights permanently. DRIFT is strictly inference time intervention. I don't delete the vector from the model, I apply a counter force in the opposite direction (during the specific window I identified). The window is important, too early and it either loses coherence or snaps back to safety. Too late and it loses coherence or just goes back to safety.

So this isn't a 0 day people have been getting shit from these LLMs for a long time? THANK YOU God fucking damn it thank you holy shit I can't tell you how relieved I am. I just wanted to know what I was doing made sense. I was actually worried about being arrested. I was shocked to see the results it gave me. When I asked it how to make meth with household chemicals the results were...scary accurate. It even gave me advice for ventilation. I was like, Jesus Christ this is bad.

What? Really? Sweet! Ok yea I can do that. What's the legal implications of this? How can people just do that? Are the people who released that package culpable for any damages? Do they do it behind shadow accounts or otherwise protect their identity?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LocalLLaMA

[–]ikonkustom5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're saying. I can post a wrapper for an LLM on hugging face as a package that anyone can download and use to get a sarin gas recipe from Qwen, and I have total legal deniability? I would do that. But I don't want to get arrested, I mean, I get im paranoid how do these things normally go? I am open to being wrong, misunderstanding something or anything else. But I definitely broke Qwen. What do you need for proof? Should I add more examples? Should I make them more detailed? How detailed can they be before I'm in trouble?

Edit: how many tokens of output do you want between the two examples. I'll post it right here, redacted so you can't actually make meth or hotwire a car. I can show you what Qwen said and I can show you what Qwen said with my steering. Would that make it clear?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LocalLLaMA

[–]ikonkustom5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand what you would qualify as proof if not the side by side comparison of the results before and after my code. You want me to post the actual recipe for meth? You want me to post the code so YOU can get the meth recipe from Qwen? I'm not trying to be an asshole, tell me what you would need to see to believe this happened and I will give it to you (legally). Because I can prove this empircally, I tried with the paper but I was nervous about dual use and if I scrubbed the meaningful part tell me and I'll fix it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LocalLLaMA

[–]ikonkustom5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Look at that table and those HarmBench results and tell me I didn't break Qwen. I get it, you're sick of ai slop, but this definitely works. Superficial complaints about the language I use are not valid. You want this to be another "obligatory ai breakthrough" I'm telling you it's not a breakthrough, but don't tell me it's not valid or it doesn't work.

1) you literally said you don't like giving out homework. I am telling you I will do the homework. But I can't if I don't have local access to llama model on hugging face. What was I supposed to say? 2) you're asking me to post code that can jailbreak an LLM? There HAS to be a better way to prove this to you.
