Matt Stoller is always worth reading.

IMHO main benefit of bunny.net is that as an Slovenian company they adhere to the GDPR, no GAG orders, and offer an Data Processing Agreement (DPA) when Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is involved.

See https://bunny.net/gdpr/. Also noticed this:

While uncommon, bunny.net also provides a way to block users from the EU from accessing your content altogether by using our traffic manager tools if you do not wish to serve users from the European Union. Which I assume can be reversed, only serving to users from the EU.


Nice privacy policy. They store the absolute minimum PII.

In The Netherlands some 6 million people’s PII was stolen from mobile service provider Odido after Salesforce warned them for the tactics used by hacker group Shinyhunters https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47226542


Very interesting, 2 different yuan’s!

  - offshore yuan
  - onshore yuan 
Do you have more details on this? A book, a blog, an article?


Do a google search for “cnh vs cny forex”


Walk Through Walls: A Memoir https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/288046/walk-through-walls-by... also covers her relationship with Ula.

Easy read, personal & entertaining. Highly recommended.


Also if you’re interested in this type of art, look up Tehching Hsieh, who was an inspiration to Abramović. He did some really cool stuff and only got recognition in the last 15 years or so.


Great research and write-up, maybe a bit too elaborate.

Will be interesting to see if a public outcry will happen once these boxes start arriving at those who funded the kickstarter.


It’s LLM slop and very shallow, in my opinion.


whats shallow about the research? it all seems to check out?


Thank you.

Every time I complain about this kind of useless AI slop I get downvoted to hell and get dozens of comments saying "it doesn't look AI at all", so I don't even bother anymore. It's incredibly sad, I expected much more from this community... But it looks like it'll soon be dead like the rest of the internet.


The blogpost?


ctrl-f for "This isn't" and note how many instances of this pattern there are:

> This isn't X. It's Y.


I don't see a single occurrence in the article of the word "isn't".


> That means the lock-in isn’t just product strategy. It’s also architecture.

> And that omission isn’t some harmless simplification. It’s the entire trick.

It isn't just once. It's—twice. ;)


Also stuff like this:

>That’s not exotic. That’s just model parallelism with extra suffering.

>That’s not product magic. That’s a checkbox.

What really triggers my internal AI slop detector is this:

>Their renders. Their prototype shots. Their exploded views. Their spec sheet.

>Nobody asked what silicon was inside. Nobody asked how 120B on LPDDR5X was supposed to work. Nobody spent

>No cloud. No GPU. No subscriptions.

>wrong class of chip, wrong power envelope, wrong everything

>The visual geometry matches. The licensing model matches. The China-based semiconductor ecosystem match

>Real researchers. Real papers. Real contributions.

LLMs love to overuse this pattern.


This also smells of an autoregressive model trying to make a point that TiinyAI simply forked another repo and claimed as their own invention, before realizing mid-paragraph it's by the same people:

>So no, TiinyAI did not “launch” PowerInfer. SJTU researchers did.

>TiinyAI’s GitHub repo is a fork of the original PowerInfer repository. At least one of the original academic authors appears tied to the code history. So there is clearly some real overlap between the research world and the product world.


Oof, thanks! (I'm going to blame it on my Android Chrome "find in page" tool not working as expected, and I apologize)
