How do you validate this kind of work to weed out any confabulating by the LLMs?
I kind of agree with you. I think music theory would be way more approachable if it was taught using intervals instead of all the weird naming of western notation. For example, everyone learns major and minor scales…
I get it now. Had to play around with the code a bit to see it. Very interesting and unintuitive problem. Thanks for the thorough replies
You might be right. It’s been a while since I read snow crash. I just remember the metaverse as a sort sad state of society, but I don’t remember if the evil corp stuff was in there or just in the world at large
I had no idea it was a lord of the rings reference. Here’s an apt quote from wikipedia: “The [palantir] stones were an unreliable guide to action, since what was not shown could be more important than what was…
Makes me wonder what it’s like to identify with the villains in media. Zuck looking at the metaverse and thinking hey that’s a good idea! Or Thanos wasn’t so bad. Those rebel scum had it coming. Homelander is the good…
That would actually be a great feature. Opening two file browsers to move stuff around is a really common workflow. Although with current trends we might instead get a chat bot prompt “tell me how you feel about where…
Not quite. I'm saying there are 256 discrete numbers (0-255) and 255 intervals between those numbers. Most of the real values will fall into the intervals and get mapped to 0-255 somehow, maybe by nearest neighbor, but…
Judging by your other comment in this thread, you might agree with my rational [1] more than you realize [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48365800
Thank you for the thoughtful reply. Maybe bins is the wrong word to use, so I'll try with intervals. Starting with 1 bit data, there are two numbers and one interval. I think where bins makes it confusing is that inside…
By counting the edges
The author is confusing bins with bin edges. In their first plot, the standard approach looks strange because 0-7 should be the bin edges, not the center points as shown in the plot. You can see this confusion again in…
Creating a throwaway for this comment is telling
Jeff Lowenfels has a series of books about fungi, microbes, bacteria, and nutrients that I really enjoyed. They’re all fairly short and accessible for someone without a bio background. https://www.jefflowenfels.com/
It’s a craft like anything else. Some people enjoy building a table and feel a sense of accomplishment telling their friends “I built this.” Other people just want a table and buy one from Ikea
That explosion plot is pretty bad. No y axis. Unclear if it includes tuition and loans (which are paid or owed by students). Loans are ~50% of "ED appropriations", and only ~$21 million was distributed to students in…
> do you think that there are limits to who can or should use ai? I don't think there should be imposed limits, but there might be an upper bound where expertise becomes atrophied by depending on AI too much. > if the…
The plumber obviously. Not everyone needs to know how to be a plumber, but a plumber should know how to be a plumber
Higher cost doesn't always indicate negative environmental consequences. It could be (and seems likely to me) that harvesting one cow's worth of plant protein is more labor intensive which isn't necessarily bad for the…
It doesn't need to be cheaper than the cheapest meat to be competitive. If there's some social or moral incentive to avoid real meat, that adds value to plant based alternatives. Fungi protein sounds cool though. I…
Laughter isn’t a perfect signal, but is the only signal in all the noise you mentioned
> If two people disagree on whether something is funny, who's wrong? You can't say either of them is. There's no reward function for funny. Laughter is the reward. N of 2 is a small sample size, but if one person…
Ideally, hold Google liable until their AI doesn’t confabulate medical advice. Realistically, sign a EULA waiving your rights because their AI confabulates medical advice
Only true if the alien plants are using the same chlorophyll as earth plants, which seems like a colossal fucking assumption to me
Sorry to ruin your ruining, but if you read past the abstract and look at the data, you'll see it tends to correlate with whether a democrat or republican is in office. Immigration policy is also mentioned in the…
