less than 10 years ago I worked for an AI company that sold Naive Bayes classifiers as a service. so I would call it AI

I use zed for this (you can use vscode as well), just use the side panel chat, take away write permissions, prompt it with "answer with code in chat" or similar, then you can use it as a per…

I think GP meant in the tea instructions

why is it a paradox? guarding their IP overseas has been the modus operandi of American software companies since their inception

There are plenty of humid, warm cities in the world. Not so many humid, cold cities. It's easy to check, usually the (English) wikipedia article of a city will have a Climate table with month…

yes, and all their abstract, philosophical thought is now being used to justify high valuations by these companies. if what they are making is the new nuclear bomb, well then they must be very valuabl…

what do you think they should do instead of what they currently do?
comment
>For example, if you’re building a proof of concept (POC), then it’s more important to prove the idea than it is to define the architecture. I have tried to do this for POCs (just hacking everythin…

From http://hpmor.com/chapter/64 : MORPHEUS: For the longest time, I wouldn't believe it. But then I saw the fields with my own eyes, watched them liquefy the dead so they c…

Great little article. 12 years later, he is still right on every count. Who would have thought that Peter Higgs was a very clever, clear-thinking man

It's still a big change from the previous status quo. I've been checking on absolute emissions on various industrial countries for a while now and this is the first time I've seen them …

>China is also greatly reducing their emissions Are they? because looking at these charts[0], although fossil fuel use as a percent of total energy may be going down, the absolute values for coal, …

It's ridiculous. They should have made it an explicit part of the language. The interpreter knows about types already, it's crazy that they couldn't just let the user make the types exp…

I think the measure goes like this: the higher the dial, the more you feel you are getting your money's worth out of your 10k usd purchase. it's a fantastic feature, really
comment
wow that's actually insane, the fact that they would have an "improvement" dial is ridiculous by itself, but also the picture looks extremely fake? is this a scam website? leaves me won…

the comment about MIRI being a doomsday cult was exactly right. yudkowsky lost what little credibility he had left when he argued for the bombing of datacenters. as is (correctly, imo) argued by the e…

is there a country where if you don't show up to court you don't lose by default?
comment
I have mentioned it several times lately, but if the analogy was correct, people would be committing prompts and not code. High-level source code gets committed, binaries don't. If prompts were r…

If they were equivalent, people would be committing the prompts and not the code

Recently, I have used both Zed[0] and VSCode[1] remotely via SSH. It works just fine, and it was painless to set up. I remember years ago last time I tried, it was a much harder process. [0] https:…

I'll believe that LLMs are like compilers the day a repo contains only the prompts and no generated code.

While I agree in principle (slack works just fine as a firefox tab, thank you very much), if the application needs filesystem access, it's not going to be viable.

It's not evenly distributed. Big labels get much better payouts per listen than independent artists
