The evidence that humans would naturally be designed to sleep “multiple times a day” is quite mixed. “Multiple” does a lot of heavy lifting here, when basically most evidence points to two batches, following either of…
Well of course as you pointed out the legitimate one would be copying voices WITH permission (yours, someone you know who gives authorization, through contracts for movies/bots etc). The model can’t differentiate…
Yes possible. But really that video of them features the word prominently (even on the thumbnail) AND that vocabulary estimation website. The video/podcast is just slightly over a week old. Anyway doesn’t really matter,…
Not sure how to understand that. You mean as the best engineers? Funnily at my company, the few engineer that did the majority of the work before AI still do the majority of the work now. By majority I mean tackling…
I still love learning, especially outside of tech. Been working in the ML field for over 8 years, and while I went into it because I liked the field, I did lose some interest in learning things, but mostly because of…
I mean I do agree, and on iNat I can clearly see my house and the house of a few other people in the neighborhood. However you can easily find the current owner information for a given house in the state I live in, and…
I am not sure, but you don’t have to technically bet on assassination. You can bet on an event which would happen as a result of said assassination. X won’t get re-elected. Company Y CEO will change in 2027. This is…
Might be surprising but I am kinda willing to believe it. Since we bought our house, we had quite a bit of work done by professionals. But whenever I can I do things myself. Like I had multiple companies quote me…
Idk basically everyone is my org has seen some good value out of it. We have people complaining about limitations, but would still rather have that tooling than not. For me the main difference is now some people can…
For me, the main thing is to never have it write anything based on the goal (what the end result should look like and how it should behave). And only on the implementation details (and coding practices that I like).…
We do lose something, but really I still see it as an extension of autocomplete. I had some pieces of code I wrote I was quite proud of: well documented, clear code yet clever designs and algorithm. But really what…
Yeah absolutely, at this point I also start new chats after 3-4 prompts. Especially with thinking models that produce so many tokens. Usually things go smoothly but sometimes I have situations like: “please add feature…
Yeah. I feel like that like many projects the last 20% take 80% of time, and imho we are not in the last 20% Sure LLMs are getting better and better, and at least for me more and more useful, and more and more correct.…
Same here. As much as I enjoy a lot of the technical stuff, I never click on 80% if it because it is often “thing that already exist but in lisp/rust/etc, new tool similar to X to free/one extra feature/lightweight”. So…
I disagree quite a bit. For me the medium, the technique, the process is all part of the art. Yet I still think the end result is also critical. But coming up with create ways to produce art matters. And I am confused…
Yeah I like NeuralViz too. Honestly the writing is what makes it funny in the first place. The AI imagery just adds that extra weirdness on top. Like my faves being the street interviews an the gluron that reviews the…
Yeah for me the three main issues are: - overly defensive programming. In python that means try except everywhere without catching specific exceptions, hasattr checks, when replacing an approach by a new one adding a…
It seems like it is fiction, from what I could find. I was doubting it at times but it feels like for how old it was some of the tech wasn’t quite there then. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37723862
Yeah love her stuff. And honestly the voice description is part of the music flow at this point. I feel like that’s kinda how people imagined navigating whatever cyber domain when the first big cyberpunk novels came out
Yes, Levenshtein in that case give too big an exploration space. A keyboard edit distance would probably work better. Delete and swap are still 1 but replace and add should be within say 1-key at most
My guess is also that not all typos are equal. Should have a stricter edit version for 1-keystroke-away filtered edits (that is delete, swap or add 1 key away / replace one key away) instead of pure Levenshtein. Like…
I really enjoy writing some of the code. But some is a pain. Never have fun when the HQ team asks for API changes for the 5th time this month. Or for that matter writing the 2000 lines of input and output data…
Yeah some areas I looked at seemed fine (US, EU, Shangahi), but some the buildings are on top of the roads, and they look more like Perlin Noise than actual buildings. E.g main parts of Beijing. OpenStreetMap and such…
I feel like to some degree, things have gotten less affordable. And I have seen a big push of the idea that “a job is just making money, find your happiness somewhere else”. Which led to more and more people looking for…
I think, from my experience, what they mean is tool use is as good as your model capability to stick to a given answer template/grammar. For example if it does tool calling using a JSON format it needs to stick to that…
