evidence degrades, is lost, or is rendered more difficult to authenticate with the passage of time
Yes, did it take this long to figure out that’s the plan?


Construction delays. Having a hard time trying to figure out where to hide house the underage girls.

Huh. Looked up the numbers and you’re right
well-to-wheels studies for battery electric vehicles (BEVs) often find that ~70–80% of the electrical energy ends up as motion (especially when including regenerative braking), versus ~12–30% for gasoline ICE vehicles
The ICE that has been tweaked and optimized for more than a century is literally almost 10x less efficient , even accounting for power line resistance, impedance from transformers, AC/DC converstion, etc


Look up transmission and transformer losses


They’re still your friends?


Ditto. I use Codex and Claude Code on a daily basis. Copilot feel like it’s from the 80s, a few generations behind


Autocracies. Always just one more purge, and we’ll finally be rid of the Problem


Rather a lot has been learned on these topics though

ZKP solves the math problem.
It does not solve the trust problem.


Hegseth’s boozy greasy hands are all over this.

- In the weeks leading up to the launch of Fable, Anthropic worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours in total.
- These tests showed that Fable’s safeguards are substantially more effective than those of any previously deployed model.
- No testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak—a jailbreak method that can very broadly bypass the model’s safeguards, unblocking a wide range of cyber capabilities.
- We suspect that perfect jailbreak resistance is not currently possible for any model provider. Every safeguard used in the industry is vulnerable to non-universal jailbreaks (which can elicit some cyber information in specific circumstances), and it is likely that universal jailbreaks will eventually be found in the future. We stated this clearly when we released Fable 5.
- Given that perfect jailbreak resistance does not appear to be possible today, Anthropic adopted a defense in depth strategy with Fable 5 […]

Atrocities and their antecedents


Far fewer “ifs” than any fusion project I’m aware of. I am a chemical engineer not a plasma physicist so… grain of salt.
That said, this is basically using the same physics and design of ITER – spherical Tokamak – but using high-temperature superconductors (YBCO) that weren’t available decades ago when ITER was started.
Having to use much weaker magnets is why ITER is so physically huge and directly ipacts why it costs so many billions. Industrial-scale ductile superconductors at (relatively) tractable supercritical helium temperatures only became available in ~2007
They are nearly done constructing the pilot plant SPARC in 2027 ( next year! ) that, as noted, will actually produce more power than it uses end-to-end. Its run duration is expected to be limited by engineering problems like effective cooling systems, whose designs are to be finalized by ~2033. (obvs you need to have the actual working reactor to know for sure your cooling system and everything else actually work with it)
Then they plan to build new plants as fast as orders can come in. Probably take under 2 years per generator.
Agreed except they don’t deserve any Bruce Dickinson the man is too good for them
