I don't think I've ever seen someone on HN say that. Many people would say that AI makes them more productive at coding, not that the output is nice to read.
Putting aside the way you're saying it, your comment could be translated roughly as: surely you should always pick the top suggested word (or token) output by the LLM each time, rather than picking a random choice…
Your second startup dedicated to feature flags? Aren't these just some booleans with optional support to toggle them at runtime? Maybe I've just not been in the right domain, but I would have thought that if someone's…
That is still not what I'd call a "document".
I agree with a lot of what you're saying but on this point: > i remember within the first like minute disney dropped the latest tron trailer on youtube, it was absolutely flooded with "i'm not ready" "omggggg" caliber…
That fragment doesn't mean much in isolation. You've just said that they didn't modify str.lower (because "that would be bonkers") but you've posted a fragment which, for all we know, is part of the str.lower…
I think you really did just get lucky. It does pick a word up front at the start.
You were right that fuses were involved, just on a different model. See my edited comment.
And Pierre et le Loup seems to be Peter and the Wolf which is a Russian story / piece of music.
The Wikipedia article the previous commenter linked doesn't mention this, and I've looked at a few sources from the linked from it and they don't mention it either. They mention that previous Therac machines had…
I didn't think that was about too many alarms going off and so that a real one was being ignored, and re-reading the article doesn't give that impression either. It was more to do with a bug in the user interface (it…
I was sure this story was going to end with your script causing chaos by calling finger in a busy loop. But every 2 minutes! Even in the 90s, that's a pretty mild amount of network traffic.
The problem with this analogy (actually one of many) is that most people can make do with a cabinet that is literally identical to everyone else's. IKEA is great for that. If you want software that is literally…
I don't care for Go myself (especially its concurrency model, which is a total dinosaur in a world where we have structured concurrency) so I'm not saying this to support my favourite language, but: That is literally…
Right. The original commenter already seemed to understand that. It's a new issue because the reference count needs locking, whereas previously it didn't because it was implicitly synchronised due to the GIL being…
Wow, you typed out their question first try? What skill! I doubt their attempt failed because they wrote the question poorly. It was probably just the service being flaky.
You're talking about the same thing as the article: why were things not as fast as they could be in free threaded mode? But this comment thread is more of a meta discussion: why would lock contention issues only show up…
Yes, numpy does release the GIL. But the code in question has multiple numpy calls, called in a loop: sum((np.sin(np.cos(np.sin(np.cos(x + i)))).sum() for i in range(n_loop))) This is not like: release GIL # i = 0…
People 100% are asking ChatGPT for all those things.
It's very relevant because it otherwise would have been plausible that they were blaming the pilot to unfairly divert blame away from an entity they had a bias for.
Oh OK thanks, I didn't realise. I just had some fun looking at bowling ball cross sections.
I think you're counting the overall sphere as the volume, but water would leak in through the finger holes so only their actual material counts. I suspect different weight bowling balls generally have different volumes.
Fair enough. We all learn differently. For me, having printed lecture notes meant I could listen (imperfectly!) in lectures rather than focusing on copying. It was a revelation after years of exhausting lectures doing…
Taking down the lesson/lecture does relatively little, you can do it on autopilot. If anything, it distracts from listening to the content. When I took computer science at university (mid naughties) we were given…
