    Yeah I can’t fully agree with axioma #2. While people learn when you challenge them, every person reacts differently when they struggle. And there is this thing, anxiety, that make…

    Well, my guess is that updates and inserts are much more frequent than searches in their use case. You're assuming a balanced frequency for these operations and it hardly ever happ…

    ipv4 space is very limited and you can easily compute all the hashes. There is salting and combined with rotating salts it could work but no one guarantees that you’re not storing …

    But the idea that the brain functions on a basis of complex statistical processes doesn't imply that statistics created the brain itself, it just suggests that the brain's processe…

    10% of the population in spain was using netflix before this, as a reference 12% in germany, not that much difference. We'll see, but I think it has more to do with the decline in …

    My experience is similar but tbh I feel it's mainly due to the fact that oauth is implementing an important security layer (authentication/authorization) and that's hard by definit…

    It’s probably provided as system instructions for rejecting things. You can use the API and feed it with different instructions with the system role

    IMO if your app is less secure than your competition by default, the app is less secure, period. Telegram is said to have been given authorities access to user data [1], despite th…

    Why? Genuinely asking. As a software engineer this all is very inspiring. I’m tickled and excited to do things again. I’m also learning deep learning and statistics and having a bl…

    I’ve noticed that bing chat is better if you instruct it not to search anything, that way it will use the model knowledge. I’ve learned to use the model knowledge or the web search…

    OpenAI should implement an oauth authorization server and allow developers to use "Login with OpenAI account" into their apps.

    I would be more concerned if we don't get to the point of decent local models for every task, because of the power these companies would have

    I fail to see how ChatGPT would help here. It's only useful when you have some cognitive work that you want to automate so it saves you time and you can do it on a large scale, but…

    The idea is interesting but I still don’t get how it works. Also, what are the benefits for me, as a user? I could give you ideas for the challenges but I’m missing a “search” or “…

    Yeah, but to be fair GPT 2 is open source and Whisper (a high-quality speech recognition and multilingual translation model) is also open source. A few years ago I needed a good mo…

    They are language models, it's what they do best. They "understand" (give more weight) to the correct relations between words (tokens) and try to predict the next token based on pr…

    Yeah I agree with that one. They set up a call and he stood by his decision to disclose it on oct 15th. Then 3 days before the disclosure deadline they rewarded him.
