Update: on LinkedIn the Faros team replied to me and stated that they see both usage and issues increasing over time.

2y of data. They should address that confounder and demonstrate the results are stable even if you stratify over time. 2026 models are very different from 2024 ones, after all.

I really liked the main question. But I’m more interested in the structure how we journal, not if you use Logseq, OrgMode, paperback, etc. For example, I try to journal by treating…

Thanks for the warning! From the git docs: > Set it to refs/notes/commits to enable rewriting for the default commit notes. Why wouldn’t that at least be the default? Why is rewrit…

How does that compare to Claude Code? How protected are you when using CC?

For Mixture of Expert models (like GPTs are), they can produce different results for an input sequence if that sequence is retried together with a different set of sequences in its…

To me it implicitly means: “I am selling you my distilled copy of the book at nearly the price of the book. That lets me recoup my investment, and after a few days I will take it o…

Oh, wow, scummy to scammy, indeed! It’s all in the fine print… I didn’t bother reading this appendix on the first read of the blog post. Disclaimer: I do really enjoy this book, as…

That’s an interesting viewpoint, even surprising to me. Can you be more concrete about what you think is wrong with the agile software development movement Kent Beck co-founded, an…

I agree on principal, but believe it is more nuanced and hybrid can work if you implement it uniformly across the company. For example, I’ve seen places where everyone can WFH Tue …

World time buddy offers that: https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/

I use this. You can easily pick dates (and it correctly handles time changes in one region vs the other) and you see the time bands side by side. Finally, it has a great mobile app…

Here’s another example: Apple Arcade decided to discontinue my kids’ favorite local multiplayer game (Marble Knights). Apple erased the game from my devices and there is no way to …

> OpenAI are doing tricks with the model output Do you have any pointers to the “tricks” that are being applied?

Just to expand on the above, as two days later I now feel it is hard to understand how my reply is related to imtringued‘s last paragraph (“if you can fix the asymmetry or eliminat…

Thanks for the pointer to the Leitner system (my last name coincides…) But why would you want to use that simplified Leitner system if Anki can track each card individually? Discla…

I don’t think Daly is suggesting to move away from debt as an instrument in his work, only to establish a 100% reserve system for commercial banks, including the Fed. He was sugges…

I am currently reading the late Daly’s 2014 book “From Uneconomic Growth to a Steady-State Economy” that seems to address exactly your concern for a more fairly distributed economi…

Rejoice, as you have issues that are really easy to improve upon. First of all, don’t ever argue about solutions with your peers (e.g. whitespaces), and dive deep (Can you imagine …

I prefer System76, because it ensures that hardware and software work together flawlessly. Most threads here seem to complain about that, but I never had an issue on that front wit…

Using Oryx Pro with Nvidia, and it is a breeze. Depends on your manufacturer supporting your hardware, I guess.

Doesn’t this have to pass anti-competition regulations before it goes anywhere? And if it does, is it likely that it will pass?

Every time I catch myself thinking "wrong" about a position or solution someone states, I remind myself that my thinking is probably the only wrong thing here. I displace that nega…

The actual problem in that case (when you need a closed door for something like this) is that you are part of a team without trust and you senior staff has not yet learned how to m…
