Isn't this only a transitionary problem though? Right now, during the transition there is no incentive for humans to write anything, it will get drowned in AI slop. As time goes on…

The end goal though (in my understanding) has never been for an LLM to regurgitate knowledge it ingested during its training. The end goal is to use the patterns and correlations f…

For well-scoped tasks I wouldn't say the code is bad, not brilliant for sure, but definitively good enough. For a lot of problems "quick and good enough" is all that is required. I…

Subsidized from a capex perspective maybe, but the profit margins for API-priced inference tokens are likely very high. Also, a lot of people get stuck on the idea that the main us…

A large part of the world population is poor, and they do not have the same level of health problems, nor are they similarly obese. Not purely diet related, but a huge part of it f…

The wage structure is very flat in my country, the average wage is only around 15% higher than the median. The median wage is very livable on. For essential or basic needs I would …

I don't understand this data at all. All of the rich Western European countries has over 200h required work per month, but I don't know of anyone in my country (high or low income)…

There is no electronic lock as far as I know, as many people seem to assume. It's a mechanical notch that you have to physically pull the switch past to operate it. The lock failur…

That’s an interesting perspective, and it makes sense it works. Thankfulness is known to provide a lot of psychological benefits, such as greater appreciation of the thing you are …

Same experience, putting everything related to tech (printers, programming, Wifi, email) into the "IT department", which is seen as a support service to the core business of bankin…

This is what I think a lot people don't understand when it comes to unruly IT systems in large organizations. Deutsche Bank does not have an IT or software engineering problem, the…

That's a mind-boggling theory actually, that some general survival skills are encoded in the parent-child relationship. Basically you have to become a parent to level-up your survi…

I think it's more an indication of higher expectations in child-rearing. If you're struggling daily for survival and 7/10 of your children will die before age 6 I don't think can a…

Yes, if unions exist at the company (which they did at Klarna), a company is required by law to negotiate with ALL employee organisations present at the company. This is one of the…

On average over a longer period variable rates will always be lower, since the risk premium due to future rate uncertainty will be lower. If that period is a 100 years it won't hel…

It's the same case in Sweden, all new lenders have to be able to handle rates of 6-8%.

What a ridiculous article... everyone understands that exponential growth cannot continue forever. The bigger and more interesting question is what the life of an average human loo…

People are quite loyal to their grocery store. The shut down means all of their customers are forced to try out another grocery store, could hit them hard long-term.

This! Job-hunting is so ridiculously easy when everyone is working from home.

Dressing appropriately does not mean "dressing up". It means dressing slightly above what is generally accepted as the normal dress code for the role your interviewing for, and the…

As others have pointed out, it depends on time of year and where you live. Far north, e.g. Canada, the U.K, Scandinavia the sun won't give you any Vitamin D at all for roughly six …

How is there a lack of supply and not of demand right now? Most of China is already back to work, and we'll see lack of demand in the coming weeks/months when people isolate themse…

I'm not saying everyone is rational, I'm just saying there is no reliable way of predicting when the market has bottomed out. DCA-ing on the way down means I will at least buy lowe…

The problem is separating the great recessions from less dramatic recessions. Was 2008/2009 a once in a decade recession or once in a century recession? In a normal recession you'l…

Are all bear markets the same? If there's a clear signal when to start buying why isn't everyone doing it? To me technical analysis of the stock market is the modern equivalent of …
