Eastbound and down, load 'em up and truck 'em. Oh we gon' do what they say can't be done. We got a long time to go, and a short time to get there. I'm eastbound, just watch ol' bandit run!

It's worth pointing out that the GDP of California makes it more like a country. It's not something that can just be ignored.
That's why I said "Age Verification Authority stamp" versus age attestation. How long before tech giants are able to convince Congress that the only way to keep kids safe is for them to issue certificates following identity verification? It won't be long before Google phones won't let you install APKs easily without a dev certificate which requires submitting your information to Google. It's not farfetched to say. It's a wet dream for politicians that want to be able to track everyone everywhere, too. How long before motherboards can't be sold without it? How long before building your own PC isn't an option? It's already the norm for most hardware to have closed source code somewhere. That's generally accepted as something that's or worth working around except for the most dedicated of free software enthusiasts.
This is all super important shit. Blowing it off like "this is just tech illiteracy" doesn't do anyone any favors. We aren't going to be able to fight these things by laughing about it. With that mentality, an asteroid might be the only way to actually stop this shit from happening.
The trend in America is towards a conservative, puritanical, surveillance state. Flock cameras everywhere. Flock execs looking at children's gymnastics classes in my state, while they say it will help find missing children. Abusers saying it will stop abuse. My state passed a porn ban and has had heartbeat abortion bans. We're not going to get any wins by blowing this shit off and laughing about it. We're not going to beat this shit if everyone wants to laugh and think everything is a slippery slope fallacy or just a random bullshit comment.
We had so many more. The air quotes was a big one.
I think they're more upset AI companies scraped 'em and they didn't get paid.
Well, yeah, because they added it because of the law. That's not speculation, they said that's why they did. I agree, if it was there before it wouldn't have been out of place, I totally get you, but they said that it's something they should add because it might be required by law in the future.
For now. When is it going to need some sort of Age Verification Authority stamp to run?

The worst is when Workday parses your resume wrong and you know you're gonna have to make the same corrections on every site because God forbid they allow you to upload some different format that is easily machine readable.
Re: bad with large code -- that's been something I've been noticing as well. A project I've been working on for work has gotten larger now and it seems more often that it makes goofy mistakes. Like removing something somewhere but leaving something related somewhere else. My best guess is that it's all context window stuff. As humans, we can learn a lot and keep it all in our heads. But an AI model, if it's not something from its training set and it's not in its context window, then it just straight up does not know it exists. I'm guessing because context windows have gotten bigger that ai coding has gotten more impressive. But we'll see if they're able to keep scaling that. I imagine at some point it's gonna hit a soft wall (or at least a price wall lol).
Plus, only fans can only do so much, if you really need cooling an air conditioner helps.
