I disliked them a bit, but then they stopped flying to a certain destination. I quickly realized that the other airlines were 3x more expensive. I realized I actually cared about p…

Beyond the obvious chatbots and coding copilots, curious what people are actually shipping with LLMs. Internal tools? Customer-facing features? Any economically useful agents out t…

Because LLMs are based on the abstract ideas of neural nets from brains. Say what you wish, but some problems were completely unsolvable before we adopted this paradigm. On some le…

I had the same confusion initially, interestingly chat GPT gets it: So while wolfgang42 wasn't there when Ulbricht was actually arrested, their realization created a vivid mental i…

Is there reason to believe that the extra voters would've helped Kamala instead of Donald?

What successful projects have you birthed and how do they compare?

So you're saying it's better to be like most people: to promise nothing and then deliver exactly that, perfectly on time.

How do you reconcile his "bullshit" with the fact his spaceships are saving astronauts from space?

Wow! I love this take. Somehow with all this evidence of COT helping out LLMs, I never thought about using it more myself. Sure, we kind of do it already but definitely not to the …

I think it's because OpenAI's leadership lacks good taste and talent. Realistically, they haven't shifted the needle with anything really interesting in 2 years now. They're using …

Except last I heard it's getting merged with the hated React router and it's not really clear what that implies, no? Haven't used either, just reading.

OP here. Thank you! I think your singling out of truly complex apps like Notion makes the situation more intuitive to me.

SPAs, SSR, typescript, bundlers, transpilers, jamstack, headless CMS, serverless adapters... But where is all that complexity going? Most websites and web apps I encounter are no b…

To clarify this, I think it's reasonable that token prediction as a training objective could lead to AGI given the underlying model has the correct architecture. The question reall…

Yeah, I don't get it. I used Vue because it was straightforward. The options interface was Vue. Now, if it keeps getting more complicated and also has two ways to go about things, …

My experience with Superhuman has been terrible. Back in the day, I tried to sign up. Couldn't. Then they started allowing sign-ups, but there was a mandatory onboarding/sales call…

I think you're right that for a dog to live its best life it needs the ability to spend a lot of time outdoors with relative freedom. Our labrador had the chance to live like that …

Maybe the limitations of the software arise from the fact that it's being sold at a price that's relatively too low? It sounds like it's very niche software with only a handful of …

Nothing survives over a long enough time scale. So the US will fall from grace and fail too. The question really is, is that going to happen within our lifetimes and what effects w…

Great point. I think that might be in line with the idea if we take it to its full conclusion. Any way it goes, expect change. The meta mistake is assuming the patterns we've seen …

I think one should look at this as a nudge to think and re-examine our intuitions. The world and its 'order' has changed many times in the past. The leading empires rise and fall e…

I needed osm data at one point. Never managed to figure out how to do it the proper way. To get data you need, you need to download massive 100Gb files, in obscure formats, and use…

There’s probably lack of cpabalities on multiple fronts. RAG might have the right general idea but currently the retrieval seems to be too seperated from the model itself. I don’t …

RAG feels hacky to me. We’re coming up with these pseudo-technical solutions to help but really they should be solved at the level of the model by researchers. Until this is solved…
