Emotional (he/him)

Shit, I remember looking at 18F when trying to learn more about accessibility and I recall they had good info, it’s a shame…

In this economy?

I love that idea

I’m not particularly worried about those vulnerabilities. Unfortunately, they are pretty common AFAIK, but at-least they pretty much only open a backdoor within whatever network you’re connected to, and can be mitigated with a VPN.

IMO, there’s much bigger reasons to be worried about RedNote than security or even privacy.

Of course! I think I’ve been particularly cynical about stuff being named open source because of OpenAI.

I use LLMs through Perplexity and GitHub CoPilot all the time, but I’m still too spiteful and petty to use anything from "Open"AI. I’ve been very happy with R1 so far.

This comment here seems to summarize it well: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3/issues/457#issuecomment-2627016777

It’s more open-sourced than I thought, but also seems debatable. I don’t know enough about LLMs to properly judge. I would probably stay away from calling it “completely open-sourced” though.

Unfortunately, as I’ve learned recently, it doesn’t look like Deepseek is actually open source.

You can download the model, but unless I’m misunderstanding, that feels comparable to calling Photoshop open source because you can download the .exe file on your computer.

So what is :q! For?

That’s been my experience too, unfortunately.

I do see that .ml has lots of regular users too, but in addition, the tankies are almost exclusively there.

I’m not an electrician, but I recall that this video explains it pretty well (along with other interesting things): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_q-xnYRugQ

I don’t think that’s who they were calling Russia.
