Turbo is basically unusable. It doesn't produce code. It produces steps.

LLMs aren't logical machines, so any non-trivial bug-fix is just likely to introduce more bugs. It's a bit of a misunderstanding of how LLMs are supposed to be used. One caveat is …

I think it's a little questionable to prompt language models with "bugs you're trying to solve".

GPT-4 base = (or slightly better) Claude 3 Opus >>> GPT 3.5 >>> GPT-4 Turbo

If you want to secure the future for your people, you need to execute large government infrastructure programs. Turns out leaving all of this to the profit motive puts people on th…

Worst case scenario it bends (this takes a lot of abuse) rather than snaps like plywood.

A lot of meh furniture that uses steel will last, too.

What metrics would you prefer? Feelings? Regarding France, my understanding is that their scores are some of the lowest in Europe and below the OCED average on the PISA exam (compa…

The problem is when the "ordering" of science is horizontal. I.e. Einstein reading their works and copying their conclusions. This is highly likely to have happened, regardless of …

I don't think anything, im referring to allegations.

Right, it's not so much a critique of the author's work that I've presented as much as a meta-commentary on the article in the context that we're posting on a forum that aggregates…

I like how the concept that third world workers that are exploited by greedy capitalists to undercut native labor are being treated unfairly and exploited is presented as novel. Th…

If you want to talk about contributions to the general theory of relativity, why not talk about the people that Einstein is alleged to have plagiarized, Henri Poincaré, David Hilbe…

You're hand-waving the effects of a labor surplus created by immigration on wages. During covid-19, when immigration was suppressed and the labor surplus was attenuated, something …

I'm not confusing anything, so your comment ended up being useless noise.

Another facet to it is that most disciplines where you can just about-face all of your established core theses is generally called "pseudoscience".

One thing that absolutely savages my mind is the fact that those on the nominal left-wing have abandoned this obvious truth and focused on an ideology that benefits some sort of gl…

I don't really think reading books is the way to go generally to improve at the job of making things, at least, not any of those books. Making things seems to do the trick there.

In the job market, it's all about how you stack up to other people. That kid that blows you away will likely stagnate like all of us, he might pick up a few tricks, though.

I'm not entirely convinced. I've seen interns that are better than some of my 15+ year colleagues. I'm better than most of them myself, but I've also seen interns better than me --…

Thoughts on subjecting Jewish-Americans to this? We've lost reems of technology to I*aeli espionage.

Thumbs up emoji.

6 years is sufficient experience, and we're good, thanks!
