fuck man do they even make normal perverts anymore?

drop DOIs

I’ll believe that things are happening when Larry Ellison goes flat broke

said equally greasy true believers at anthropic apparently filed S1 on the same day

tbf i’ve only skimmed it after going through sixth or so after looking at scroll bar

onsite solvent recycling is a thing, what can’t be recycled can be burned for energy. chlorinated solvents require extra energy input because they’re less flammable, and extra corrosion resistance is required in equipment used for that

LW not beating cult allegations by including on title bar a link to an actual secular candlelit ceremony instructions, whose narrative places computer touchers generally and chatbots specifically at pinnacle of human development. as in, on par with invention of writing and fire. amazing self-report

DCM is also about the only good solvent left that is also resistant to lewis acids. I think that some people were pushing for benzotrifluoride as a replacement, but it just straight up doesn’t work as well where i tried it

Tbf before “do it in DCM” was “do it in CCL4” or “do it in benzene”, DCM just works without nuking operator’s liver

Lots of these new green solvents are also annoyingly polar so perhaps they can be used as replacements of other polar solvents but not anything else. I’m not using cyrene, fuck that

TFA is used because it works and is shelf-stable. Replacements like HCl in ether or ethyl acetate are bitch to make and when these can be bought, they have to be refrigerated all the way. Straight up not worth the effort on small scale

we got natural language viruses before gta 6

there was a pivot about it, so, so it seems

spotted on r/betteroffline: Nscale, one of neocloud companies, released S-1. even when they show “adjusted EBITDA” and “adjusted operational loss” where they exclude, among other things, depreciation and stock based compensation, they never break even only on that “adjusted operational loss”, net losses are multiple hundred % (ie. they lose 4x-23x as much as they receive in revenue)

but yeah, it’s profitable on inference, it’s the worst it’ll ever be and other marketing lies from twitter’s most concussed boosters

Money is All You Need

that would be second time it happens

now you have it straight from source:

e/acc, distinct from EA, is a rival ideology about technology.

(somewhere in this mix someone called me e/acc. i am not. if you’re going to classify me in this space, i am something like a Kurzweilian h+

e/acc is a troll ideology for upsetting EA people and scamming pmarca.)

then he complains about sneerclub for some reason, damn i can’t guess why

if anyone has Rat Explainer For Normal People 101, not written by weirdos (derogatory) that would be useful i think now that what is known here for decade broke into mainstream

LLMs doing Great Things Worth Ruining The World Over in medical research

there are entire wet labs whose software stack predates openai. go and ask anyone who works in a moderately long operating lab if there’s any load bearing Thing that runs under windows xp control or older (there will be). there are some extremely limited applications of pre-llm ml in drug design, but it’s trained on entirely different type of data and it does entirely different thing and i’d say it’s not load bearing. these things are expected to be fed with new data from testing new things provided in previous iterations and if you hit something you’ll get there on your own. all of that data is noisy

unfortunately segyges is back (got 3d for posting 911/charlie kirk meme) and posted 51-post long thread on why rats are a cult, conveniently one day after zitron dropped 1h long podcast on the same topic

that’s his twitter, but he’s also on bsky. coxon might not be

the future of humanity is kink on a blockchain <- this is what rationalists actually believe

also, this bit

When she saw he was holding a shovel, she tried running away at first (you can’t imagine how creative people can get)

i have to keep in mind that this is coming from people who had problems with opening a jar

careful, they might like it

humans start breathing only when 3 years old, don’t you know?

from what i understand, it’s also impossible to copy this thing and every single instance will turn out slightly different. also it will continue to learn on whatever data it is fed so you might end up with something useful, that will degrade, is on a timer and has no backups
