I’m pretty sure the average daily gluten intake of this person is much higher than that from 3 beers..

I don’t quite understand why context length needs to keep growing. It seems to me like many tasks (e.g. customizing your LLM on your own data) would benefit from the model doing so…

I prefer their analysis over lichess’s and I think they are a lot more feature rich. Also, I think the company in general is pretty good at chess? I’m an 1800 elo player for refere…

How does a non technical manager know who is doing bad or good work? I wouldn’t want to work on a team where the person in charge of my compensation can’t understand if I’m doing d…

And I respect your view that generally workers are more productive at home. We can agree to disagree there. Also, work commutes in traffic are indeed silly. This post is about body…

I agree with you that productivity for managers versus programmers is different, but my view is that the majority of workers do more work in person and people actually really enjoy…
