Agreed - maybe not lots - but I got myself a HIS8055U three years ago specifically because it had knobs. No regrets there. I wish it had one larger burner, but completely night and…

I think (related to the threads below) properly running evals in the state of the art models is likely outside the budget for most individuals. It's undoubtedly the right thing. It…

I do love the appeal to bread making. It's a wonderful example. If people haven't made french bread by hand, it's a humbling exercise. Recipes of course have evolved too. Old roman…

I do think there's a chance open weight models have a bit of a moment with the costs of frontier models growing on business balance sheets. It's unfortunate from my "privacy loving…

I tend to agree - making folks intending to interact with minors comply makes more sense. That said, outside of the merits of this approach, I am dubious of any actual implementati…

Agree. If you walk through a forest there are billions of little things from creatures to bits of dna just looking to pass on their particular brand of biologic layout to another g…

I know magic has a nice Arthur C. Clarke ring to it, but I think arguing about magic obscures the actual argument. It's about layers of abstraction, the need to understand them, mo…

I think the context matters here - for SEO heavy marketing pages I still see google only executing a full browser based crawl for a subset of pages. So SSR matters for the remainde…

Codemirror is pretty decent. Last time I looked for this (6+ years ago) it's what we landed on for an internal tool. Things may have changed tho!

You have many great replies about specific methods - but I found the most important tip wasn't where I was looking. Tools, software, books, methods all can come later. The most imp…

If there is any truth to OpenAi having filters for the Rothschilds, I'd guess that OpenAI wants to stay clear of repeating or even hallucinating additions to conspiracy theories. I…

Always interesting to compare how things work across industries, but comparing tech with sports I think is both common and problematic. Problematic because it leads ICs to think of…

The convo has been a bit light on examples - I think a canonical example of how to achieve this can be found in ACID databases and high uptime mainframes. Definitely doable, but if…

There is a lot to be said for getting outside the four walls of a business (or org) to evaluate things. If it's not visible outside those walls (software buggy enough to lose custo…

Not to pick on you specifically, but I tend to agree with other posters that testing (automated or otherwise) is just an element of programming. Like all elements it needs to be do…

Take it with a grain of salt, since I don't own the hardware - but did have two points of feedback 1) you may want a more complex/interesting thumbnail- I almost scrolled by since …

+1 to this. Focusing on usecases would be great. ex: I wanted to see what features were available for your sheets module. Was willing to spend 5 minutes on a walk. Tried the web ap…

I'm not sure delegating would have saved him either. I think his boredom about marketing shows a missing essential curiosity about things. Boredom kills!
