Yeah, we’re in a funny position. By all accounts it is fair use (at least in the US) to train models (and build search indexes, e.g. Google Books), but sharing the books dataset it…

Oh, thanks, that’s interesting, I thought it covered that too!

The weights are code, the prompt is code, the output is code. Is the meat code?

I can’t tell if this is sarcasm or not! Radio buttons support keyboard navigation without JS.

Perhaps it has to be that way, the motivation to build a mechanical computer is based on the belief that computation can be mechanised.

With binary vectors, 20 dimensions will get you just over a million concepts. For a billion you’ll need 30 questions.

> they often automatically pluralize, with the predictable result of seeing tables with names like addresss. This is a very poor example, that case is literally in their unit tests…

Agreed. The article makes many references to how life would be better with explicit well-defined interfaces… but types are how we explicitly define interfaces. For example, Rust bo…

“Incomplete” seems like a better word than “incorrect” for this. The code is likely correct in the narrow scope it was needed for, but is missing features (and error checking!) bey…

These UI elements (including the keyboard!) already blur their background, so that’s not a new cost. My 5 year old phone handles those fine. The distortion looks fancy, but since t…

Here's an attempt at that: The GPU is responsible for blending layers of the interface together. Liquid glass adds a distortion effect on top of the effects currently used, so that…
