exactly how I feel every time I weed the yard. I'll end up with a pile of weeds, look over my work and see weeds everywhere still
I think you are misunderstanding the term "deterministic". Running on deterministic hardware does not mean an algorithm is deterministic. Create a program that reads from /dev/random (not urandom). It's not determistic.
just text !== syntactically correct code that solves a defined problem There is a world of difference between translation and generation. It's even in the name: generative AI. I didn't say anything about magic.
Said another way, compilers are a translation of existing formal code. Compilers don't add features, they don't create algorithms (unrolling, etc., notwithstanding), they are another expression of the same encoded…
I was thinking of our natural reluctance to adopt newer and better tools because of our comfort and expertise with old ones. I know I should have experimented with LLMs sooner, but leaned into my instinctive "VIM has…
> arrested development is the dark side of strengths in the sense of Positive Psychology I see some correlation here to hesitancy in adopting LLMs for coding.
Right, it doesn't help pay the bills to be right in the long run if you are discarded in the present. There exists some fact about the true value of AI, and then there is the capitalist reaction to new things. I'm more…
I understand there are probabilities and shortcuts in weather forecasts.... but what part is non-deterministic?
what? I don't see ads unless the creator themselves are doing it, and even then it's two clicks on the right arrow button and we move on
I'm with you, I enjoy the craftsmanship of my trade. I'm not relieved that I may not have to do it in the future, I'm bummed that it feels like something I'm good at, and is/was worth something, is being taken away. I…
In my experience, it's xml-ish and HTML can be described the same way. The relevant strength here is the forgiving nature of parsing tag-delimited content. The XML is usually relatively shallow, and doesn't take…
counterpoint, and I know it's not apples to apples, but have you ever used an old terminal app? Buffering the key strokes and then applying them _once_ the menu was ready was awesome. You could move so fast through an…
I do both of those, it's a constant battle in my own head. I'm always reminding myself that it's ok to make music just for my own enjoyment, and that don't need a potential monetary angle for some hobby. I'm not…
"magic quotes" have entered the chat :D
I think they understand that, and are referring to more nuanced side effects. Logging, for an example, is a side effect, same with even using a date function. Hitting an API endpoint without cache may be functional if…
Really? You don't think there is a middle ground? Are the cops watching this fight or hearing about or later?
almost is the key term here, yes, it depends on the situation causing the panic.
you can't think of an example where it doesn't? I can. I'm not saying there is any virtue to it, but panic can subside without having had negative side effects on anything other than your mood
both "screwed up" and "perfect" are judgements calls/perspectives, and panicking isn't going to change things (panic doesn't necessarily make something worse either)
"perfect" is a weird word to use in stoicism, but I do think it can be used to justify that things "are the way they are" and shrug it off with some visualization.
agreeing to change and agreeing how to change aren't the same thing at all though
thank you!
the imgur link is bad, but I hadn't noticed the prompt tucked away in those reference images and that helps. Thanks (I had asked for a rock climber dangling from a rope, eating a banana, and they were wildly nonsensical…
Here is the demo https://huggingface.co/spaces/ChenDY/NitroFusion_1step_T2I I'm unable to get anything that looks as good as the images in the README, what's the trick for good image prompts?
I don't know why you are being downvoted. My father was a cop, went through the academy when I was 15. I distinctly remember him explaining to me about how they are taught to lie to get people to cross their stories up.
