That's a lot of unproven assumptions based on the fact that LLMs are just correlation printers.
If you run out of (solvable!) problems in your given logic space, just start branching out your space. Until you find yourself in such esoteric spheres, not even your best math co-researcher knows anymore what's…
Does this coincide with the interest rate hikes and the induced layoffs and conservative hiring practices because of it? No, really? What a surprise!
You mean, the high interest landscape made corpos and investors alike cry out in a loud panic while coincidentally people figured out they could scale up deep learning and thus we had a new Jesus Christ born for…
Almost a decade ago I used to be a hyped up HS graduate fully spoon-fed the AI hype bubble (after 2012, the first "deep" learning breakthroughs for image classification started hyping the game up). I studied at a top 5…
You wouldn't believe how often I have to fight for UUIDs instead of sequencing. UUIDs are great. For all practical purposes 0 possibility of collision; you can use it as an ID in a global system, it just makes so much…
Imagine gatekeeping what and how you can ask questions because of some fear of redundancy. Who the fuck cares if the same questions comes up each month, that means it's an important fundamental topic and can be handled…
I just quit a company that was unable to negotiate. I had an offer from a Silicon Valley company that would have paid a lot better, but it wasn't full remote (or even hybrid) and I would have had to relocate. So I went…
Ok, there's still Java, Kotlin, Go and other memory safe languages in the sense of that they are statistically way less likely to have any memory related bugs compared to C, C++ or similar low-level no GC, no reference…
That's one of those misguided deep sounding statements that are based in a fundamental lack of knowledge. What you, or this guy at the CS department, said is completely bullshit, evidenced by simple statistics of memory…
Tech moves on in one way or another, no surprise here.
Brilliant, sounds even less automatable than what I assumed.
Frontend seems to involve visual design, which backend obviously doesn't (usually). Other than that, I don't see the difference, as soon as you're working on things more complex than simple static pages. Both will…
Paid $800 for a stationary cycle, best purchase I've ever made, no joke. It's very hard to find an excuse to just sit on your cycle during useless passive meetings, in breaks, before or after work and watch youtube…
I never really used stackoverflow. The rare times I do use it, i.e. google leads me to it, a large portion of the posts really annoy the hell out of me. I don't care if someone tries to solve the "wrong" problem, or…
Youtube absolutely gets it; the profit increases, meaning it's successful at optimizing the most important metric set by the capitalistic system we have the marvelous pleasure to partake in involuntarily.
Yeah, it's crazy the hate microservices get. I happen to work on a product that needs to scale to handle millions of transactions distributed all over the world and the cloud microservice system is just flawless for…
I agree. I did my degree at a top 10 university in the world. Bachelor mixed, Master focused on AI. All I can say is, the job market for data science, machine learning engineering and similar is heavily overcrowded.…
Fair point. I was just thinking that one sensible change could be to publish everything without significant constraints on open platforms. Then, in some way, the community and some moderate moderation would basically…
I don't know why you're being downvoted, but that is a perfectly valid statement. Everyone thinks proofs are this holy grail and totally rigorous, and they are on a certain level. But the idea is floating around that…
It is absolutely a systemic problem. A problem that will not be changed or solved within our lifetimes, that's for sure.
Elon seems pretty incompetent. He dug his own grave. Good for the (former) employees at Twitter.
As a Swiss, I think it's fine.
I started University at 24. Couldn't program, was quite bad at math. Learned logic the hard way, by grinding it. I'm 30 now, I'm very good at both math and programming, even published a paper. But I didn't do a PhD,…
> It's more of a personal, interpersonal and a social problem which needs extensive research, surveys to find the "why" and how we might be able to fix it or avoid it from happening again. Changing human behavioural…
