This analogy almost works, except about a fifth the hay making machines' output is needles.

This is literally one the most infantilizing and simultaneously insulting analogies I've ever come across on this site. Do you really think consumers of the latest AI tools have no ability to forecast? The parents in this analogy have

I think you'd end up with more plastic from just breathing in air and eating seafood than Invisalign, but I haven't done a study on that.

In theory, if a program is written in a high-level language and you have a correct implementation (interpreter, compiler, runtime) of that language on a new system, then the program should be able to run there. In practice, this is not alwa

I'm curious how you've cured your schizoaffective disorder? Diet?

I think your LLM temperature analogy is interesting in this deprecated dichotomy between autism and schizophrenia. One Youtuber Jreg used a breadth-first search (schizophrenia) vs depth-first search (autism) analogy when comparing the the t

Sediments including lead tend to accumulate at the bottom of water heaters, so you'd be measuring the accumulated lead and not the locality's with this assumption.

When we ripped out the carpet to install luxury vinyl flooring it was off-gassing for weeks. Had to go over the vinyl with dozens of microfiber clothes before the outside coating stopped wiping off. Imagine all of the people cutting into th

If you read at least 3 paragraphs in, you'll see that this tool attempts to generate a query using an LLM. Dismissing a tool before attempting to understand it is astounding.

The US owes it to the Vietnamese people to clean up the arsenic, but of course they're never going to do that. I know several elderly Vietnamese who developed leukemia after serving in the war. If you eat rice, please eat white not bro

For long chats, I suggest exporting any artifacts, asking Claude to summarize the chat and put the artifacts and summarization in a project. There's no need to stuff Claude's context windows, especially if you tend to ask a lot of

I'm curious how your experience is using Gameface for day-to-day tasks like coding. I assume you still use a keyboard for typing, but what about selecting blocks of text or general navigation?

This is really cool, but there's real-world instrument physics that might not be captured by simple Fourier transform templates, like a trumpet playing softly can have a significantly different harmonic spectrum than the same trumpet p

Assuming a lunch break is not included as part of 8 hours, do you really think most exmployees are productive for a full 8 hours? Most office workers spend an exorbitant amount of time twiddling their thumbs, reading emails, going to the re

This sounds like the video game Orwell where you investigate social graphs to find dissidents of the state. Of course the NSA has been doing this for years, but their UI probably isn't as pretty as Palantir's :)

I'd argue that saline should be the panacea here. I doubt very many people do at-home saline rinses with filtered, sterilized water and a simple mixture of salt and baking soda. Do people really want to spray PFAS water directly into t

One can also absorb chemicals through the skin (it is the largest exposed organ infact), so I've been thinking of getting a shower or whole-house filter. Definitely upgrade from the Brita though. Brita's aren't very effective

This is one of the worst over-generalizations. Cultures are not monolithic, static entities. How do we go from "different cultures" to "negative outcomes?" That's a complete non-sequiter. Imagine if all of Germany m

SmolLM v2 1.7GB Q8 has been running pretty fast. Only needs about 3.5GB of memory. I think it's fine for chatting, but it's only really good for Python code compared to larger models. Deepseek-coder is pretty slow, even with the q

Actually I think you're mischaracterizing and spreading misinformation about how Larry's stock sales work. Let's look at the ACTUAL SEC Filings on their website [0]. These filings show this is the "LAWRENCE J. ELLISON RE

Yeah I refuse to give Oracle a dime, so I'll keep that in mind. I only run the tiny models for fun (the CPU inference is enough) and any complex coding tasks go through GPT or Claude. Mainly just using the one instance as another backu

Did you link a card with Pay-as-you-go? It seems like OCI puts free tier users in a low-priority queue, so that people have resorted to using auto-clicker scripts for weeks to even provision an instance. That repo looks cool, if I really wa
