I prefer luna for most development, especially when I am guiding the process. Sometimes terra. I have had terrible results coding with sol. It is way over-tuned on RL to make something that completes the task, no matter what. I end up with

The code I see is a lot like the pelicans. All of the code in codebases, good, bad and ugly, is slowly being replaced by whatever level of code ai is currently able to create. All code is now a slightly wonky pelican on a bike, but if you l

Software that had a data moat because it was hard to integrate with or migrate off of will have that moat disappear. A web site is a client now. Building data migration too for all of you competitors is easier now.

They will add flooded streets to the training simulation and this problem will go away. Eventually, the corner cases not in the training simulation will be so corner they basically never happen. Waymo can be incredibly successful without de

Instagram is gone as well. Everything is fake in different ways. If the video isn't ai generated, then it's influencers acting out a scenario they think will get engagement. I realized that when it's a real video, there is a

If had to answer this question 2 years ago, I wouldn't have said software was a "don't see it's bad until later" category, with compilers and it needing to actually do something very specific. However, business slid

Yes. They probably are, but it's moderately hard to eat a healthy vegetarian diet if you look at what vegetarian athletes actually eat.

If llms are able to write better code with more declarative and local programming components and tailwind, then I could imagine a future where a new programming language is created to maximize llm success.

If a company can align it's business model with user goals, then it can work in the long run. Apple has somewhat aligned it's integrated hardware sales business model with user privacy. Google and Meta are advertising companies an

The selling point software that monitors social media to do support is about brand reputation. If people are saying bad things about your company on social media, then that is hurting your public image, so you should respond to those issues

Are there any successful models that weren't trained with RLHF, or using a system with RLHF. I'm curious if this could be done without a fine tune step that would't meaningfully bias this.

This article does a poor job of representing induced demand so it's can't be trusted to critique it. Traffic and congestion is defined by (number of trips) * (distance traveled). So, if 10 people take 1 mile trips every day, or 5

Adding a date of travel and checking the scheduled tail number would be much more accurate.

Doing REST microservices is incredibly slow because of the amount of work it is to agree on what a "clean" and "consistent" api looks like for each service. It's just such an endless well of trying to establish best

When senior leadership is non-technical, they can't tell when non-customer visible changes are useful or they just have mediocre engineering. They also can't tell when their software stack is such a mess it's beyond fixing.

It’s a good version of scrum. There many more bad scrums.

I would guess they monitor tons of metrics for any change to search and any change that reduces ad revenue gets rolled back or reviewed.

I think the author's point is that tracing is a better implementation of both logs and metrics, and I think it's a valid point. * metrics are pre-aggregated into timeseries data, which makes cardinality expensive. You could also a

Correct. I'm saying that private insurance is good at insuring uncorrelated risks, like car wrecks, but usually, only the federal government can enable insuring correlated risks. Suggesting that mandatory liability insurance can a good

There is an issue with correlated vs uncorrelated risks. This is the reason that only the federal government can offer FDIC insurance for banks and disaster insurance in Florida. When banks fail, they tend to all fail at the same time and t

I'm a bit late responding, but I'll answer anyway. I did read the article and believe I am disagreeing with the author's core point. In the roofing example, the roof installer is passionate about roofing shingles, but the hom

Do you have any examples of deploying to Kubernetes with something you consider real tools? I agree with what you are saying but have found very few real world companies using real languages for this.

by aero142 4y ago
Exactly. Good products and companies are abstractions that allow a homeowner to not have to learn about shingles. The roofer should definitely understand what shingles are going to provide rain and show protection in the customer's env

I really appreciated the economist view of parenting as trade-offs and acceptable risk she presents. The way medical information is communicated to general public is very binary and once a particular practice is recommended, it is treated a

It seems the improvement in the models is the size of the training set. Hence the "Large" in large language models. I am assuming that it is better at programming because there a is a ton of training data available on Github, etc.

How do these companies ensure that the hard drives get cleared of company data? I would expect most companies handle information that is legally restricted and have an obligation to ensure employees don't keep a stray copy of customer
