When it answers something I asked, or when I play with a small model with llama.cpp, I sometimes find their reasoning funny while they go in circles.

Replying here to throwaway2037 because I can't reply directly to him, but yes, even most informal businesses accept PIX, including some random guy selling candy or bottled water at…

I'm pretty sure they're "employed for life" because otherwise every new administration would replace as many people as possible. Can you picture a company replacing 90% of their wo…

Maybe this will help: https://marcusolang.substack.com/p/im-kenyan-i-dont-write-li... And I think I saw some others similar articles and blog posts over the years, but the tl;dr; i…

What do you mean by "It's not automatable at all..."? At a former job we had automated extraction of data from a 3270 terminal (several of them actually).

Damn, a smartphone made by Valve would make me splurge for more than middle-low end, for the respect they give us alone. It just needs my banking apps, and and I'll be happy to pay…

Anytime I see the complaint about the 30% fee, I wonder what people feel would be fair for the service, because it also includes storage, distribution for new instalations and patc…

I never dealt with it or tried anything like you need, but isn't it a good use case for an AI with Retrieval Augmented Generation?

I remember those reports. I wonder if it has to be the same kind of sand, or could be some that we neither have another use for, nor would damage any ecosystem (too much).

I didn't have time to read the whole thing so I don't know if they mention it, but another article about about using sand as heat storage pointed out one of the advantages is that …
