    For years, a friend of mine (in San Francisco) and I (in New York City) have sent one another an image [1] of one of these being tuned any time we’re doing coast-to-coast software …

    I grew up in the Midwest, and my father, who went to the University of Kentucky, was fraternity brothers with Ben Gish, and so growing up it was a name that I heard often when he’d…

    You can reduce with list comprehensions in Elixir, but it's uncommon to see: sum_list = fn list -> for item sum + item) end sum_list.([1,2,3]) Other comments are correct that `Enum…

    It seems worth noting that the input of gte-small is limited to 512 tokens. The tokenizers for sure aren’t the same, but I imagine this is significantly less than ada-002, whose in…

    How are you stuffing long text into GPT context? Are you doing some form of summarization?

    This package is using GPT-3 via the “ChatGPT” export from that module, which is—somewhat misleadingly—not ChatGPT, but GPT-3.

    Hello from slightly further south on Vanderbilt Ave :) I haven't tried that Indian place yet, but it's on my list, now. The pizza and bagels threw me off (not because "Indian == ba…

    First, let's replace "gushing" with "discussing", because that's what was happening. I'm not sure "got bad during part of the pandemic, now is improving again" counts as gushing. I…

    Maybe you mean Vanderbilt Ave? Vanderbilt St has no commercial zoning. What many people don't know is that 3 of the pricier restaurants on Vanderbilt Ave are all actually the same …

    An LWW register is most certainly a CRDT, it just has limited use. I think you’re making a good point about how one must be careful applying CRDTs, but I don’t think it’s accurate …

    It’s hard to get a sense from the site or from the actual idea pages what the goal is. Removing the BQE ( https://transformyour.city/vision/new-york-city/the-bqe ) would affect mil…

    While “Arcadia” is likely of greatest interest to HN readers of all of Tom Stoppard’s plays, I also highly recommend “Jumpers” and “The Hard Problem.” Also worth noting the many ex…

    Disclaimer: I like Railway. Heroku VMs had the kitchen sink, and I miss that with Railway. A pretty standard Phoenix app with Phoenix’s built-in auth doesn’t build and the user is …

    1Password “forces” (strongly suggests to) you to physically print a recovery kit with both your master password and secret key on it. I keep mine in a safe deposit box in another p…

    Layout and paint. I don’t think using the term “rendering” for interpolating data into a template is anything new, though, nor is it bad or even confusing that it means one thing i…

    I am curious what the difference is in property value and general perceived desirability between external-facing and internal-facing apartments in these superblocks in Barcelona.

    Ah, one of the bugs with Slate was with spell-checking. On mobile Safari, at least, its text nodes aren’t marked by spell check unless they’re interacted with by the user after the…

    Last I evaluated them, they had some bugs that wouldn’t work for my use case. For example, Quill has the annoying bug on mobile Safari of blocking the native behavior of capitalizi…

    One light-microsecond is about 300 meters, this must be milliseconds. Edit: Just saw that this was already pointed out. Apologies, didn’t mean to pile on.

    It’s for more than just a single CLI tool, but I’m a big fan of Charm’s site ( https://charm.sh/ ). It’s hard to understand what it all is at first, but I still had a pleasant expe…
