Thanks! Interesting, you can perhaps tell I'm based in Europe, seems like lots of countries don't have that here. Seems like probably a good feature of American justice?

Amazed by these comments? Yes, it seems very possible to me that Nvidia makes a lot of money. They are literally the largest company in the world. Who pays? Only all the companies, desperately raising as much capital as possible, issuing ne

everyone is laboring under the assumption that things will continue approximately as normal because what the hell else do you do? how, as amazon, would you plan for the collapse of all economies and markets? sure, as maybe an amazon exec yo

the context doesn't appear to change the key facts here? he did say it, he meant it, and the context provided by the OP (he was asked what he'd do if he were dictator for a day) is accurate? I have no interest at all in defending

How many times have you had a model start compacting already before getting back to you? Most have 1 million context window. It's happened to me occasionally

that example of getting wooden blocks for a 9 year old child isn't going to go down well. Thats more of a 2 year old thing... I'm also a little worried about their example of "two buyer messages contain instructions to refund

hey, I'm not super familliar with webassembly interpreters in general so id ask here: What's the usecase? like I guess edge, chrome etc already have their own interpreters for webassembly built in. do you aim to replace those and

motivation is absolutely huge. There was a survey of language learners iirc and the most common reason for learning a language all the way to fluency was because it was a a significant other's mother tongue. Heck, thats my motivation f

what's going on with these overlays? the readme is presenting those as though they are evidence of the accuracy of the project, but its completely unable to line up the shots https://github.com/PhiloLabs/fable51-wo

I think perhaps you've misunderstood what the linked repo actually is? It seems to indeed be a 3d model of an area. It's not an image model, and nothing to do with frames.

to be fair thats a reflexive verb. I think its fair enough to correct those when translating, english has a bunch of verbs that have to be reflexive too - you can't say "we went to the festival and we enjoyed" on it's ow

I figure most free AI is free as in free electricity in the coffee shop. You're welcome to use it for small reasonable loads, but try to build anything off of it and you'll soon find yourself barred from the establishment. And tha

Why are novels laid out the way they are? It's almost as though its not as simple as "bad for reading" but rather a feature of the content. imo it highly depends on the medium. If your content is packed with distracting ads,

absolubtely. Worth noting though that a large number of people here literally do develop photoshop , or similar apps of similar complexity. The fact they aren't doing it singlehanded makes it way harder, not easier. This is a central

if your spec fully describes a program, it is at least the length of the source code, and probably longer. It will also be just as difficult to read and understand. You cannot circumvent this with different wording

of course any individual person will want to be paid as much as possible. There is a reason that people protest when their town becomes a tourist destination, despite the seeming money they bring, though. They get locked out of any dream or

imo we're all being treated to a live demonstration of why the pareto principle is stupid. AI agents are excellent at making prototypes, and a lot of people are happy to just stop there (well, I wouldn't say happy. More like can&#

imo its a change in definition. Previously to "ship" was a one-time thing that you did for big, highly verified and checked stuff. Physically shipping your software to your user tends to be done after its a product. Nobody was &qu

Do you really think that the reason the boys shouldn't do crime is because it's their father telling them this? Or because they will inherit money? Do you really believe what you are saying?

I refer you to my comment at the top of this chain on "outsourced" emissions

by RugnirViking 22d ago
right. I agree with this for a large part - I do think though, that chinas current level per capita 10.81 tons (higher than EU 7.14 tons, less than america 17.34 tons) is not sustanable, and they do not seem to be taking it seriously enough

if the mafia boss tells his sons that they should avoid a life of crime, that doing it makes things worse for society and ones self, is he a hypocrite? should the boys follow his advice? my read is yes and yes are you suggesting it should i

china's historical total emissions will also surpass the US's pretty soon, on account of their nearly 3x as large population combined with their per capita emissions being nearly as high. and as mentioned, theirs is likely set t

that might make sense in a world where the US has been chugging along emitting at a constant rate for many years, to maintain a certain standard of living.- but the reality is the US emissions has been going down for many years, while incre

I don't think you get to abdicate responsibilty of some avoidable negative externality of something you do just because some entirely separate function of it is the thing your customers want. If I were a plumber who fixed leaks by dive
