I highly value privacy, but the gap between local LLMs vs top of the line cloud LLMs (e.g. Claude & DeepSeek) is still too great for me to switch completely to the former.

I’ll use PWAs to sandbox LLMs from everything else (and each other) and try to create semantic distance between the user and the queries.

How about that leaked Claude source code? Is there a reliably clean version of that available anywhere yet?

46 minutes? 😮

After the joke I still had to look it up. There are two types: towers and floaters.

The tower rigs are built in shallow water on a seabed foundation (like a building) and can reach heights of 200+ feet above sea level with 60-100 feet of the tower submerged.

The floating ones are only 30-60 feet above sea level and 60-100 feet of mostly pontoons below (like an iceberg) and are further stabilized using cables or computer-controlled thrusters.

So my guess is the one in the photo is a tower one, but that may not be rig(ht).

Oh, bother (where art thou?)

For completeness here goes the best steelman against GrapheneOS’ abstention I could summarize. Am I missing any other considerations because this is not strong:

Despite age verification laws empirically not working (VPN use just skyrockets), Rawls would argue that civil disobedience requires visibility and the acceptance of associated consequences. Anonymously non-complying against a democratically enacted US law lacks this structure. This makes it more akin to evasion, which doesn’t mean it’s necessarily wrong, it just weakens its high ground status.
