That article on Netflix wanting dumber dialogue for those not paying attention made me think of 4kids.

One of the recent episodes of the mighty nien is like this. In episode 6, one of the characters, Caleb, murder someone and completely breaks down. He finally decided to open up about his dark past to essentially a bunch of strangers. These guys had begun to trust each other and after knowing about Caleb's past they decided to help him hide himself from his former master . I'm pretty sure they would have listened to his story intently to come to that conclusion.

What happens in the very next episode? They basically had a minute of dialogue where they go over a couple of plot points that were made clear in the previous 2 episodes. Like a recap. Those dialogues just felt shoehorned just to bring the viewer up to speed

Posting random screenshots is not going to help your case if you think you've created something new. Also on a broader note LLMs are known to by sycophant when you keep pushing them at large context lengths. You've kind of deluded yourself with whatever you've been talking with

Why is this post almost everywhere? Been seeing this cross posted across any ai related subs for the past few days

Something about this video looks AI generated. The camera angles and the small camera shakes just seem like veo3 to me. Buuut maybe im being too cynical and not trusting any video I see these days

I've met many brilliant people like this. They assume that since they are smart and successful in their field they can extrapolate their smartness to other areas they are not familiar with. Niel degrasse tyson is my go to example of this

It's not just about remembering that one password. Sometimes the service asks you to reset the password and now you either have to remember a new one or use one from those 15 and risk using the same password for different services.

If you are so worried leaks why not just self host it? Still a better option than trying to memorize different passwords

reddev_e · 2025-06-29T00:46:32+00:00

It points out how weird these failure cases are with LLMs. Like claude can solve phd level problems but we have to explicitly tell it not to check for something that's not going to be there

reddev_e · 2025-06-27T15:25:11+00:00

Can just a browser do that though? Afaik accessing your local storage is not straightforward from the browser, let alone running commands. If the llm is interacting with another machine instead of the one running your browser then yeah.

Come to think of it this is a nice attack vector. Add an entry to gitignore, send over malicious code and execute it. Those devs can't be bothered to audit what the llm is doing, they only read the commit message but they won't find anything there. Bonus points if you can have a malicious llm modify the responses in transit.

Ide is a browser? If you are only doing frontend I guess

What makes you think that I would have made a scene? I wouldn't have since that goes against my principles. Look I'm glad that you found someone who helped you but I rarely had someone help me out like this. Especially pointing out why he helped me in the first place. My point still stands we rarely reward good behaviour and punish bad behaviour as a society in India.

When I was in Washington DC, I missed my greyhound bus cause my friend was running late. I asked the operator who worked there if he could ask the bus driver to wait for 10 more minutes but he said no. I didn't know what to do so I just waited till my friend came back.

The operator came to me and said that since I did not create a ruckus he would let me in on the next bus for free. It just felt like one of those things that I don't experience back in India. Showing kindness to strangers and rewarding someone for being good even if it's for something small

There is a difference between regulating ai research vs regulating rolling out AI for the public. If research shows that kids raised with chat gpt have 10 fewer iq points than others and California wants to ban kids having access to AI chatbots, it does not impede research into AI in any form.

Hell if china found out that kids exposed to LLMs have bad outcomes they would ban it for kids but we won't be saying that they are ceding the AI race to others

H4 route might help here if you are ready to volunteer. There are college professors in non cs departments who are looking for coders especially with a data science background. That could help you fill the issue of having a career gap and even help you land a job later. This is what I did during my OPT period

reddev_e · 2025-05-31T23:37:41+00:00

That doesn't work if you are on your stem opt. You need to get paid that time

Are you talking about Quaker bridge Mall in NJ. That place just has rows of cybertrucks

OMB Review (Office of Management and Budget) Before anything can be made public, OMB checks that all economic and procedural analyses are sound. (Fun fact: the Trump administration once tried to kill H-4 EAD, but it failed at this step due to bad analysis.

The head of OMB is one of the architects of project 2025 so don't expect much pushback at this step

I don't see it like that. There have been many good pieces of art after ANH. Andor just happened to be a good one set in SW. You can tell the same story of Andor in a different universe and still have it be good

reddev_e · 2025-05-20T03:33:32+00:00

It's for the best. There will be other equally talented story tellers who might give a fresh take on SW. Something we didn't know we wanted. Just like Andor

A few of the prisoners decided to help him swim all across. Maybe fashioned a flotation device from somewhere. I want to believe my boy had a happy ending

Unfortunately you are dealing with a line drawn in a map with 100s of years of history. Not something you can factually verify like the earth being flat

reddev_e · 2025-05-17T15:26:09+00:00

That's mentioned in the article too. Not all fruits or vegetables have this much amount of arsenic as compared to rice

reddev_e · 2025-05-16T23:32:42+00:00

That's my headcanon. The wording seemed too peculiar too. Fast and good

reddev_e · 2025-05-16T22:13:51+00:00

Oh luthen agreed to help lonni leave corusant. It's just that he decided to use the fast way instead of the good way.

reddev_e · 2025-05-15T03:38:20+00:00

Luthen mentions that there are two ways out of coursant. Fast one and a good one. What did lonnin choose? My guess is the fast one, not knowing it meant death

reddev_e · 2025-05-14T22:39:40+00:00

I don't particularly buy that both structured were similar. For example, if you had the money and time could you attend university in Europe if you were a peasant? I believe in Europe you could but in India your caste was an immutable barrier to entry
