Reminds me of Thucydides describing some of the civil wars that erupted in various cities in the wake of the Pelopponesian war. He says that when order breaks down, thoughtful moderates are treated as weak cowards, and…
Their release post was on HN recently. The comments seemed to think that it was similar to OpenRouter, not an actual model.
Certainly, but I think you need to have a library card to use the computers. I do see folks who look homeless using the computers, so I assume there must be a special accommodation for them. But, if you’re just a…
In the US? I think you most likely need to provide proof of an address
I think this post will age poorly. Middle managers were not “waste”, they served a social function of creating stability and managing workloads. I think the proposed “new model” probably doesn’t scale. Also probably a…
> the cost of executing on a bad why just dropped to nearly zero Ah ok, wait until Anthropic sends you the bill.
The style is very obvious. Some snippets that display classic patterns: “ Both of those things are true. That’s the part most benchmarks can’t see,” “And it’s changing how I” (classic pattern found in a lot of LinkedIn…
Those percentages seem in line with what I have heard. Not company-wide, MSL was exempted, of course, and probably a few other golden geese here and there.
I am also on the job market, but as a Senior. Pro-tip: ask them this question before they ask you. “One quick question I have about the company culture, …”
You might be describing EleutherAI
I hope this finally works out. I remember almost exactly ten years ago I got excited about one of these proposed cancer cures, tried to talk about it at lunch with my coworkers, and they laughed at me for believing.
> so what may be happening is that bosses see that output is at 80% (productivity down!) but workers see that they can give that 80% output with 40% effort (productivity up!). So why is it that the bosses are the ones…
Not just “a startup”! Also, famously, Meta, with their famous AI usage dashboards
I guess an uncharitable way to read this might be “the ML engineers/scientists want to automate all of the jobs except their own.”
I’ve heard this theory before. I think in the medium term it will have some effect, but a lot of these ultra religious groups have high attrition. In the long run, evolution will have to do the job properly and actually…
I’m going to try to win the award for the most controversial theory on this thread. The real reason we are having population shrinkage is because evolution did a crappy job. It didn’t tune us to want to have kids, it…
I think TI calculators are not a source of distractions the way a phone or a laptop is
You’d think so, but I haven’t seen it explicitly discussed in their papers, and nobody else that I know of trains on that many tokens
Liquid does amazing work, but I kinda feel like they are overtraining their models. 38T tokens seems like a lot for an 8B model
I would love to, but in some companies these days that’s really not an option
I like vibe coding for personal projects where the code is a throwaway, but I hate vibecoding at work when I later have to stake my reputation in validity of results, as well as maintain the resulting implementation.
It’s the healthcare for me.
And then it wants to edit some random upstream file that is not relevant to the task at hand and we should not edit it, so you tell it “and only edit the files affected by this commit”, and wait two more minutes. And…
They didn’t have showers, but you may recall Archimides shouted “Eureka!” after a famous bath time discovery
Would you happen to have more information about this online group? Would love to join it!
