In France, at a very young age, we're taught that journalism is not impartial: people must take sides to express interesting opinions. We simply need to read them all: the Humanite…

Way worse. I live in China but I'm French and I was saying to my gf yday night, to my own surprise: "China has never humiliated, insulted or threatened in such a gross, childish, p…

Resources to fuel factories to sell to who ? They don't care about resources if they lose their clients.

Frankly, using "bad" was a mistake, because it encompasses the two other adjectives. "Your chatgpt-like style is vomit-inducing, bad and boring" I think if you want to sound less l…

You don't need nurses -_-, just your own parents or someone who had kids before and some random books for theoretical questions. Raising a kid is really very natural and instinctiv…

But it cannot think or mean anything, it's just a clever parrot so it's a bit weird. I guess uncanny is the word. I use it as google now, like just to search stuff that are hard to…

they grew old and died ?

But Claude cannot code at all, it's gonna shit the bed and it learns only on human coders to be able to even know an example is a solution rather than a malware...

I work on a stock market trading system in a big bank, in Hong Kong. The code is split between a backend in Java (no GC allowed during trading) and C++ (for algos), a frontend in C…

That sounds a lot like bad marketing. Chain of thoughts is better, it makes you think the thing is thinking !

Isn't your dog or cat a slave ? It has agency, but end of the day, it does what you want it to do, stay where you want it to stay, and gets put down when you decide it's time. They…

After the protests in 2019 many people left for the UK and we have a shortage of unskilled labor - from bus drivers to construction workers. We have lots of school closures, a popu…

They used styrofoam cardboards to cover windows to avoid damange, all the way across the building. This was the accelerant. Many resident were complaining in the weeks before of ci…

But it won't give me anything interesting though ! Like, would you trust it on an even higher scale ? It has no basis for its investment thesis, it's a word statistician, not a ris…

How did they invest in that infrastructure ? The LGFVs they used for that are so large the only way to pay for their loans is to throw in new LGFVs. If there's a place where the mu…

Why did they name the crash() function "unwrap()" ? Feels weird to me ...

Why would it know anything better than a bunch of 12 yo given the same question ? LLM don't know things very well, they don't cross concepts in their mind. Give you an example, mad…

And that's all very american. Ofc in Europe, we have a matrix: conservative in morals vs conservative in economics and reformist in morals vs reformist in economics. It's not at al…

100M per hour... it's quite ridiculous no ?

I made 1500 USD speculating on NVidia earnings, that's economic uptick for me !

One thing I learned from this is to disregard all attempts at prioritizing based on the output's expected value for the users/business. We prioritize now based on time complexity a…

implementation plan reveals unexpected high complexity What you see as a result of your complexity evaluation is that the LLM output is wrong, but the LLM is completely content wit…

In France we're creative but sloppy, in Germany they care about the process too much but they don't deviate from plans. It's nice to have both: what's the point of following the pl…

Evidently energy was created, or it would not exist, would it ? It probably can be destroyed back to the pre-energy state in some way, just not on a scale we comprehend or even car…

How did YOU find that out ?
