The physical usps works because, the usps controls every inbox and every outbox; everyone has to have an inbox/outbox with the single carrier, and no one can actually reject or refuse mail. All the downsides of iMessage but the government reading your email bc it's not an encrypted protocol. Spam exists in the real world, this wouldn't have worked either

A two-or-more order-of-magnitude reduction in a problem seems like a good start and a worthwhile step, not something to disregard because it's not 100%…

The USPS is paid by spammers to ensure delivery of their physical spam. You doing think they wouldn't have also accepted payment from spammers to ensure delivery of their internet spam?

That was the point of the proposal, wasn't it? The receiver is also paid for receiving the spam.

I think HN has moved from outright, unabashed llm hate, to a hyperactive cynicism so you can be the HN guy who caught out llm malfeasance. Give it three more years to cook. And I'll go a step further. This audience who claims to hate the unreal/false llm screed is the same set of people who caused tech news to go from Siracusa reviewing macos and Anand reviewing gpu's to car reviews on ars and anandtech being dead. If a tenth of the people who claim to hate shit llm articles were true, Ars and Anandtech wouldn't be dead

No because you don't know which 49 is needed until the moment it's needed

Yeah but, that vagary is literally the exact same wording that can be applied to "prices are set according to what consumers no; not it's value" that sparked this thread.

Google and edge do as well. Safari offers private relay. This is ff being late to a party they shouldn't have come to.

It's weird how when we consider American tech it's a given that "dependency on foreign x" is not only bad, but the people who do it are actual idiots.

But when any American says we need to stop China from subsuming x industry it's castigated as racist xenophobia where the old white men need to accept that the free market defeated them.

I've been somewhat in favor of more protectionist movements in the US myself... maybe not everything the way Trump is executing, but a lot of the meaning behind it. I'm more than happy to see other countries do more of the same, in this case the Netherlands.

There's more to domestic security than just the military... COVID should have been a shining example of why domestic supplies of anything that can be considered essential infrastructure should never be zero... I'd say it shouldn't ever be less than 50 percent if at all possible.

I'll give more leeway for open source software that runs essential infrastructure, as that can be forked and domesticated if necessary... and there should be some infrastructure and planning to support that.

While not every country can operate as independently as larger countries like the US, there should definitely be an eye towards domestic supply, infrastructure and independence that I think too many have fallen into a globalist mindset that detracts in a lot of ways and belies human nature in favor of a few elites.

Meaningless question, fit will put everything on the gpu if it fits. Fa is default on. No-mmap is not an inference tradeoff and if you do turn it off you need to turn on direct io via -dio

What he should actually do is enable speculative decoding

They said earned, not forced

These are the stupidest things to cleave to.

It's not trust. There are plenty of major projects that only have or strongly prefer curl | bash. Trusting a vendor is fine.
