The CoT might "in English", but is it really, or is the CoT just another presentation layer over the actual weights? What I think the author (and I) are wondering about, is whether…

What is this "this" you're referring to? Was this on the ballot? Did Trump announce that he would do this? It seems very easy to just blame this on the voter like this.

I just tried chatjimmy.ai for a bit and while it is absolutely blazingly fast, it's also not a very strong model. I suppose that with time, stronger models will be able to run on s…

I've noticed the same thing. I would have three, sometimes four sessions run at the same time. It would be great, but mentally exhausting. To help this, I've set a self-imposed lim…

I think time and time again that incentives are most important in determining how a market and by extension a society behaves. These prediction markets incentivize the absolute wor…

Where do you keep the skills it generates from docs? Does this not become a mess?

This post resonates with me. I recognize everything you said except for the metrics part, since my employer luckily doesn't do that. It's addictive. You're fast, efficient, you fee…

https://hansvl.nl/ I've tried writing a few blog posts just to mostly learn about writing. Any feedback is welcome. Most posts are written to an imagined audience of people familia…

The wage-price spiral is heavily criticised: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wage%E2%80%93price_spiral#Crit...

It's called title case and for as far as I'm aware this is a uniquely American thing.

21 mil BTC is set. But how many new BTC alternatives have been launched since?

Bitcoins in practice are not truly limited. The amount of gold on earth is not likely to change much, despite the efforts of alchemists in the past. However, new bitcoins (with new…

What exactly is so bad about Finder? I've never had any issues with it.

I am not at all familiar with the US system. How come there is a $3500 donation limit to politicians, but the tech billionaires have donated hundreds of millions to the inauguratio…

I would like to know, what are some things that you could use this for? This seems like a very powerful dataset.

It leaves a lot unsaid. Advertising has a lot of connotations and cultural significance. It can evoke strong feelings for one and be a livelihood for another. Simply stating that a…

You can also choose a preferred skin when you log in and go to Preferences → Appearance.

That makes sense! I can see why you would prefer that skin. Out of curiosity, why use a plugin and not Wikipedia's appearance preferences[1]? 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speci…

Is the useSkin parameter something you manually added? I am not logged in and when I navigate to another page the parameter (and with it the skin preference) disappears.

I understand that defining advertising is hard, but "1 : a public notice" is so broad as to be almost meaningless as a definition.

Reading the article, it doesn't seem so. The drug looks promising, even though it will probably not work in all cases.

Imagine reading "one-second(th?) of all women". It seems absolutely ridiculous. Yet "one-third" or "one-fifth" are perfectly normal. Language is weird and I like that.

Markdown being so ubiquitous is what makes it valuable, IMO. Do you think AsciiDoc has the potential to reach that point as well?

What do you mean? Is Ruby helping or preventing AsciiDoc from becoming more widespread?

Other than inertia, what is keeping AsciiDoc from overtaking Markdown? Personally I like the ubiquity and simplicity of Markdown, but I can also see the benefits of the features As…
