    This might be the most brain dead way to waste tokens yet. I'm trying not to be negative, but would a human ever read any of the content? What value does it have?

    It is challenging. In my CS degree grading for programming questions fell into two areas 1. Take home projects where we programmed solutions to big problems. 2. Tests where we had …

    This scared me - I thought he died for a minute.

    I can type like 45 WPM on my phone keyboard right now. I'm definitely faster on a full size keyboard, but I'm not sure if I would be faster on this small keyboard. I know a lot of …

    I don’t know a lot about how it works, so forgive me if this is a silly idea. I wonder if attestation could be done using real Apple devices, while leaving the private key on the u…

    This is new to me, so I might be wrong, but I don't get why they share revenue with the creators of these GPTs. They are basically just prompts that consist of a few sentences. The…

    This won't even work to solve the problem they're trying to solve. If I'm a scraper or someone that wants to drive fake ad impressions, what stops me from faking the attestation in…

    It's a bit odd though. What if you built your own ML model and trained it over a set of data that your wrote yourself. Would the work generated by the AI based of your prompts be n…

    I definitely agree, "open" in the name is pretty annoying and wrong. I'm a bit torn though - I tend to think GPT-3 is approaching a level where ML is becoming dangerous. Spam bots …

    This seems kind of cool, but honestly the benefits described don't really solve actual problems I've run into in development. The overall article reads like marketing talk and does…

    I never really got this... Surely just forking Android and replacing all the closed source Google apps with open source alternatives would be easier? Why build an entirely new oper…

    In fairness, Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War crashes constantly for me on Windows. It's not a polished game on any platform. I agree though, the uncertainty is definitely an issue.…

    Agreed. Where I work we have a core team that created a framework that manages the Kubernetes configuration for us. As a backend developer I basically just have to throw a config f…

    That's correct. I just think saying "most aren't buying" gives the impression that it's not popular, when in fact it is a pretty widespread product. Not to mention Alexa being adde…

    Except that The Washington Post operates independently, and has strong editorial standards, something that a lot of "news" sites on the Internet today don't even pretend to have. T…
