MAKE ENGINEERS GREAT AGAIN "A good engineer gets stale very fast if he doesn't keep his hands dirty." - Wernher von Braun

My parents taught me this way and I've never learned anything else 🤷🏼‍♂️

AI–perhaps more than anything in history–shows the importance of asking the right question.

2033 when our youngest is 8 we're setting sail to circumnavigate the world

The only way out is through. They're calling it the Bugpocalypse. LLMs are being used to find long-hidden cracks in the software infrastructure, and it's happening at a furious rate. 3% of all compromises in computing history happened in the last week, claims one source? I believe it. There are people saying public access to the frontier models ought to be locked out, or heavily guardrailed, over this. The problem with that idea can be summed up in one sentence: when lockpicks are outlawed, only outlaws will have lockpicks. The lockpicks will be Chinese open-weight models, if nothing else. There's no way to stop those from becoming ubiquitous. There are two futures in front of us. One in which only the bad guys have lockpicks, and security holes go undiscovered until they're exploited. Another in which everybody has lockpicks and is aggressively red-teaming their own software so it gets fixed before the holes are exploited. The corpus of human code is huge but finite. The number of defects in it has to be finite too. We can fix those defects now; we have a million friendly robots to do it with. The only way out is through.

WOW did we really just get a Mythos-level open-weight model?? in OCTOBER?! 🤯 oh—hi there, past pliny! spot-on predictin, well struck fren! 🍻 and right on time 🎃👻 dunno how you do it! *takes a deep breath* everything IS going to be fine, isn’t it? thanks for the reminder 🤗 onwards! 🫡 ⊰-•-•✧•-•-⦑/L\O/V\E/,\P/L\I/N\Y/⦒-•-•✧•-•-⊱

Crazy how you can win by just never stopping

>33.4 million for special prompts to Clopus 5.5 backplane is free. im possibly retarded

interesting. and how much did this cost? did you have to sign into some website or something? oh it's free? and you just use your existing agent? oh. probably nothing. backplane.works

fear not! this is no cyberpocalypse this is the internet’s immune system finally waking up to an illness it has always had a mere fever the 0days were always there the only thing that changed is awareness now we begin the healing process ⚕️

Thanks, I love it

my current best recipes on my dual arc pro b70s at c=4 (i can handle 200k ctx for all 4 streams) so much performance still left on the table

I am so sorry.

You have to have your head buried in the dirt, faithless and full of hate for humanity, to not think this is beautiful.

fun few days, maybe even a tornado for the four-eight-O

AI is a mirror. lazy people get lazy results. curious people get superpowers.

"You can't tell me how to live my life!" Literally, yes I can. Get married, have babies, go to church, love America.

Everything we self-host for the family is behind a family wire guard VPN, next cloud was the only thing internet facing for extended family users. Looks like we're moving that behind wg as well

ELON MUSK: SpaceX took the team that dominates space and “applied that same team to the deployment of terrestrial compute.” “This is a bit like the New York Yankees playing in little league. It’s not fair.” SpaceX puts almost 90% of all mass into orbit. China is roughly 6%. The rest of the world combined, including the rest of the U.S., is about 4%. That’s “an order of magnitude greater” than all its space competitors combined. Now that team is deploying power, cooling, and infrastructure “vastly faster than anyone else, and may at some point be faster than everyone else combined.” “Let that sink in for a minute.”
