You agreed to allow them to change the terms the first time you agreed

Not even their lawyers believe that for a second. If they did, they wouldn't have had to ask you to reaccept.

Yes, they’re allowed to make changes and you can either accept them (the matter being discussed here) or refuse them. But you do need to be given the option.

I was promised that ai was just a stochastic parrot

It's not wild. This was in the news while it was happening. It was all remarked upon and leaked. If you're just now catching on, I'm very sorry to say you're a major part of the problem

It's wild, but not new. I also live in Europe and I am not an US citizen of which at least 50% are part of the problem.

Ublock origin is available on ios Safari and you can configure custom dns on ios. Just seems weird you guys only mention android

Bad example, that was clearly them yielding to a lynch mob in the performance of its duties, as the saying goes. They clearly would've been content neutral in that case too, if the mob hadn't turned against them too.

Reacting to public outcry by cutting off a legal stressor?

I just don't think it's that big a deal.

Being hosted on someone's private server is a privilege, not a right. As far as I know the host is legally responsible for the material they dispense.

In the abstract, I believe everybody should have access to web hosting. But upholding that mission is not the job of one private company.

Anyway, I guess "content-neutral" is an easier sell for most people than "We will 99 times out of 100 let you be even if you're pretty out-there, unless people start suing us about you and it's pretty plain to see you might be a degenerate force on the social internet, in which case yeah we'll tell you to beat it".

Like, it's not a power that should be exercised liberally. But be real. It's Kiwifarms. Businesses have a right to refuse service to recreational gangstalkers


cloudlfare is not hosting - they are DNS against ddos. Without internet or dns your hosting doesn't matter.

I know they have added additional services and you could say that they offer a type of hosting and domain names and other such stuff.. but generally when place get kicked from cloudflare, it is not their web host.

I would also say that they know pretty well when they kick someone from the dns protection that they are going to be bombarded with ddos and other issues that will take them offline more than likely.


I'm not convinced by this argument. If you put 10 senior devs on a problem, you'd get ten solutions. Maybe even 12. If one engineer solves the same problem 10 times, you also will get 10 solutions.

The problem is not that we get 10 solutions, and I think you should draw out your implications and state them directly. Bc they're already either solved or being actively iterated on by industry. And we (well not me) can address them if you're willing to speak them


It's more about knowing that the tool will always produce the same result, like a compiler. There is also a difference, the llm may use diffrent solutions within the file and across files

No it's confidentiality and integrity, and authentication. Which are pillars of the cia triad which you were taught in your 101 class.

So we're talking about this woman's contribution. And you're talking about how the system is depriving her of recognition.

Do you see the inherent tension in what you're claiming vs the lived experience of everyone in this post (including you!)?


Cmon…We’re saying that a certain style of reference gives her less credit than might be due. Not none at all.

One paper doesn’t make a career (she wrote many dozens), it’s not always cited weirdly, and even if it is, some people may remember the coauthors (as they should).

But since you mention lived experience, I’ll add that I’ve certainly been asked if I’m "even aware" of results from co-authored papers where my name was listed second—-and I don’t think this is very uncommon experience.


The companies are: SpaceX, OpenAI, Google, NVIDIA, Reflection, Microsoft, and Amazon Web Services.

Obviously the products then are: Grok, ChatGPT, Gemini, Nemotron, Azure & Bedrock.

Reflection is the only company there that has no model or service. It was started by 2 ex-Googlers a year ago. They claim they have a whole ass foundation base model. But what they've claimed to show is just a finetune of llama 3 70B & 405B. And yet, theyve raised several billion dollars over 12 months. And now this announcement? It's just odd.


The article is about the dude not knowing what service is where so he codes a json mapping. He could just update his /etc/services for the same thing. Oh but wait, he mentioned ai agents that changes everything!

can you please demonstrate the workflow you are suggesting? asking because i tried what you suggest, and it does not work.
