PageRank was patented. Social media is beholden to the tyranny of network externalities. Phones? Laptops? Where do you even start on the roadblocks to that? But anyone with enough money can make a language model as good as GPT-3 from scratch in probably about a month, and then you go from there.

Rarely has there been such a transformative technology with such a shallow moat. The instructions for how to do it are all on arxiv, and if you don’t want to read all those papers you can just ask Claude. All it costs is money.

If I was a freelance New Yorker illustrator, learning the art director was really good at using Claude would be a red flag

today is your reminder that the 'Guennol Lioness', a proto-Elamite statuette, confirms evidence that humans have been hot for massive furry women since at least 5000ish BCE, contemporary with our invention of the wheel and the first cohesive writing systems

As far as I can tell, the AWS Lightsail blueprints for WordPress are still not updated, and they are not self-servicable within the instance. Is this correct? I cannot find any information on when (or if) AWS plans to update the WordPress blueprints they provide.
