I agree, the nomenclature is impenetrable, it's like reading software that is not well commented. Perhaps LLMs are very good at "challenging" mathematics because what we perceive a…

Yes, we will certainly go that way, probably code already added to gcc has been developed through collaborative AI tools. Agree we don't call that "produced by AI". I think compile…

> It's not fair to compare them like this! As someone who leans pro in this debate, I don't think I would make that statement. I would say the results are exactly as we expect. Als…

From CNN: "Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told reporters on a call Friday evening that the administration came to the fee of $100,000 per year, plus vetting costs, after talking…

before there was no $100k/year cost to H1Bs, see post title.

I found this map a few years ago and had it printed online on canvas, to hang on my wall near my bike area, I recommend doing this with other old maps as well.

What is 'UQ', I assume some measure of uncertainty over your model outputs?

One thing to keep in mind with BI software is that the users are often very different than, well, those individuals that prefer to use mutt as an email client. Many, or most, users…

I agree, learning admissible heuristics will retain worst case performance, which has always been the measuring stick for these algorithms. It's not at all uncommon to find faster …

If there was legislation that required Honda to install certain safety features and they failed to do so, then yes they should be liable.

This and other proposed legislation is attempting to hit the ball out of the park on the first pitch. I feel it would be a lot more sensible and effective to legislate clear and pr…

Some people say that it doesn't matter if someone dies at age 89 -- after they have lived a full life and contributed all they had to give -- it's still just as sad and shocking. P…

Is this an advertisement?

So the model is limited to using words and characters that already exist. I agree with you but I don't see why is a limitation worth pointing out.

I don't think that's accurate, it generates novel outputs that were not observed in the training data.

While it's easy to agree with you, I find that my opinion here has shifted after leaving a large tech company for a seed stage startup. Competing against these giant companies is r…

I donate to signal, and use it frequently. But I would much prefer for the app to simply charge users rather than beg for donations. Even better would be to charge users in a way t…

Free market principles do not apply well for apartments because of the limits on supplies and services and other externalities so I (like most here) am pretty supportive of legisla…

My understanding is that "living in the same county as your last housing" can mean that you moved to California with enough money to rent a room for a month before running out. Tho…

yes but have you tried a desktop computer on your lap

A laptop can be easily transported for use in a variety of locations.

yes, I can confirm this.

Even if Neeva was free it still was compelling enough to unseat such a dominant incumbent. Especially since the search result quality is not obviously different to the consumer.

I have heard from former Twitter employees that this was very much the policy after the Musk takeover there. Nothing is ever put in writing if it can possibly be avoided.
