| 1-21gigawatts on Sam Altman's sister amends lawsuit accusing OpenAI CEO of sexual abuse 3 minutes ago link parent | |
|
Only evidence? What evidence do you think normally is present from a sexual assault of a child years before? I would suggest that his support of an adjudicated rapist and accused pedophile who is covering up for a child sex trafficking ring operated by another pedophile that Altman had a known documented relationship with...is a pretty good indicator of his guilt. Altmans lawyers argued this week that because the alleged abuse happened so long ago the case should be thrown out. They didn't say because Altman is innocent,they said bc it occurred years ago. Annie Altman is asking for $75,000...that's it. You can read text messages from Sam Altman refusing to give her $45 for therapy bills. Altman is described as former associates as a sociopath who is devoid of any morals and lies to attain his desires. He is suspected of having a former business partner killed. I don't know how anyone can think his sister would make this up. She was a pre-med student at Tufts. Anybody who suffers sexual abuse from a sibling is going to have ptsd and other emotional & mental health issues. |

>The pro-compensation crowd assumes that because severance is taxed as compensation, that it is payment for past work, and therefore any non-disparagement clauses are illegal. Here are more considerations: - No person who did no work for the company gets to sign a "non-disparagement" clause, or get a severance. - The severance amount is very commonly proportional to the length of service. Insofar as the words "compensation" and work have meaning, severance is very clearly compensation for past work. Fulfilling a non-disparagement clause is what no sane person would call work, no matter how many Orwellian mental hoops are jumped through to label it as such. >This is something I have seen just stated as if it was an iron-clad fact, rather than something that the courts don't actually uphold at present. Insofar as we're discussing the morality of these clauses, it's iron-clad enough. >That said, what is a more interesting take is whether states should make non-disparagement clauses illegal in the same way that many states have made NDA clauses illegal. The "pro-compensation" crowd argues that this indeed should happen, not that the clauses are currently universally recognized as illegal (the article we're discussing very clearly shows that it's not the case). |

It's kind of weird that Youtube search continues to be as bad it is. I honestly don't get it. When video first became popular, I got it. Scrapers had very little to go on: title, channel, tags (later), description, likes, dislikes (saldy, no more). There's only so much you can do with that. But times have changed. You can (within limits) link videos within videos. Google of course also has the entire Web to analyze links to videos. And then a decade or so ago we started to get automated transcripts, at which point search really should be getting on par with text-based search. Now? You have any number of LLMs you could develop to gather features from videos or could construct higher context than a pure word search. Also, Google's personalized search should be able to work well for videos. What category does it fit in? What demographics like it? Do people like you like it? I don't get it. Ok, as for the tool, does it work with "norms" of Google search? Do you really need boxes for "exact phrase" and "exclude" when you have double quotes and the hypen (respectively) for both of those things? Likewise do "from" and "to" type searches (a la Gmail) work? I ask because a single search box has definite advantages and you can keep adding search criteria as you see fit. In an ideal world, I'd also like to be able to search for videos I watched and I liked (eg "is:liked", "is:watched") and search channel categories or labels. |

It's gone massively downhill recently, noticeably so since the ability to sort by upload date was removed from the UI (and then very quickly removed from the API too). That was the final brick that prevented it from being literally unusable, now it's scroll and hope (and give up). |

I think there’s quite a little bit missing here. As an example, Switzerland’s road/rail lines and US road:rail lines are both treated in this way and the outcomes are different. So I think the dominant effect isn’t in this form of building. In addition, requiring fiber to each new home would expand housing costs in the US substantially because many are not located close by to existing fiber networks. I’m not familiar with Swiss government policy but their government construction efforts are frequently far more successful for lower costs than ours. I cannot say whether Switzerland does it differently but usually in the US if there is surplus to be captured it is captured. As an example, if the Swiss system were to be implemented with US tools it would look like a government project would here: private companies would be invited to build the fiber to each home, and eventually one would win the contract and if the economic benefit would be $1b, they would charge $0.99b to construct it. M If the government itself attempts to build it, it is constrained by its pension obligations and its desire to remain solvent to not actually have employees on staff. It therefore will use contractors in order to do things and we’re back in situation 1. Governments originally formed for this kind of shared task and to enforce no free riding on it. But whatever factors drive US politics, US government purposes are to extract maximally from economically productive classes and redirect it to politically productive classes - through the use of selective government contracts and populist giveaways. |

I'm a new Max 5x subscriber ($100/mo) and my account was banned today within hours of upgrading. I was exclusively using the official @anthropic-ai/claude-code CLI to research usage policies for a personal project. It seems the April 4th automated sweep for third-party harnesses (OpenClaw/OpenCode) has a high false-positive rate for users on the official CLI. I don't use my Anthropic token with any unofficial tools. Has anyone else on the Max tier been flagged while using the official tools? |

I found that 160F to 180F is enough for instant coffee, depending on personal taste and what you feel like at that moment. I have an electric kettle that has a several buttons for different temperatures, and heating only to 180F saves time over heating to boiling, plus I can drink it right away. |
