This is largely a side effect of mimicking the distribution on the internet via pretraining. It's a good basis for setting up a model of the world since we have so much data and it…

A single synchronous request is not a good way to understand cost here unless your workload is truly singular tiny requests. Chatgpt handles many requests in parallel and this arti…

Of course, we already need to be working in Spaghetti ints or prepping them will be as complex than a linear scan. Can't wait for spaghetti arithmetic. Do we have a better algo tha…

A lot of the yolo stuff from ultralytics is AGPL3 fyi. Recommend caution depending on what code or models / model lineage are used

Then it's an arguably arbitrary classification right? The borders seem potentially ill-defined and/or social in nature.

In some places, it's "gay" if two guys hold hands. On the racist bit: it can be hard to disambiguate why someone treats you in an unfavorable way -- it could be because they're act…

You can get most products on prem at a certain price & size. A lot of companies will apply resistance though unless the contract size is right b/c on-prem contracts tend to be less…

Is there a design paper somewhere? Curious how this was accomplished (and what trade-offs / failure modes it has): "System uses a consistency sharding algorithm, lock-free design, …

I think I have this: https://www.nationwidechildrens.org/conditions/auditory-proc... Might be the same thing depending on your full set of symptoms.

You might not see it available via self serve interfaces, but I think the h100 cards can do 256x to a single host.

I think people said the same thing about NNs in general before we hit a scale where they started performing magic. There could be exponential or quadratic scaling laws with any of …

If you have tight interfaces that fully encapsulate the use of any, you're fine. If you want to return `any` or pass it around outside of an insulated zone, you're gonna have a bad…

You make that impossible with application logic or constraints. Just like any linked list, you need to update the other pointers Example constraint would be a unique index for the …

or perhaps for some applications it would be sufficient to do playlists { id song_ids [] } ------------- and just store the ordering in an array. Some postgres drivers might start …

Or model it as a linked list and you can sidestep the limitations / complexity of some kind of numeric (or bytes / text based ordering field) ------------ playlists { id } --------…

I don't wanna speak for them, but for some people, going in deep on something is the only way to stay healthy / happy / sane. Different strokes for different folks

One could argue that what you're describing is one of those alternative business models. You don't care if someone comes to your page anymore for ads if the scraped page is the ad.…

There is flywheel issue with generative search: content producers, information curators or outlets, etc need to get paid. People are okay-ish with Google in part because it drives …

Anecdote: I'm a midwesterner and half of my siblings, most of my wife's siblings, and some of my friends' siblings are in their late 20s, have no jobs (or From the outside, they lo…

Haven't used yet but systemd flag added a month ago: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/systemd-support-i...

Vespa looks pretty compelling; indexing looks like a dream. I'd recommend basically anything else over a customized ES / Solr cluster. Some of the least fun clusters to manage. Gre…

Yeah this is what reminded me. Figured I'd revive the "mega earthquake" while the news was buzzing about the "mega flood".
