I suspect some people moved there years ago with the lower cost of living little money around the time/since of the four-hour workweek tim ferris movement . Some countries do not allow public criticism, so of course they would make vid

I've been working in a non-tech role the past couple years hoping things would improve. Reading stuff like this, doesn't seem to be happening and makes it difficult to plan long term (but I haven't been actively applying).

I really liked that game, it had a lot of strategy to it and a decent story. The multiplayer had a common key bug that made it hard on some maps. The atreides airdrones could fly at the edge of the map and not be targeted, and take out the

2023 had a lot of trouble finding a tech job and even local meetup devs told me of layoffs, got into restaurant work where I had worked several years ago in college, because they remembered me. Mostly physical job, I don't have to work

Super interesting. At one point thought control flow guard + DEP/ASLR was suppose to prevent this stuff, guess it can't be prevented nearly completely by now. Sounds like this took a lot of work to figure out, well done. Any comme

Problem is lack of money catches up eventually. If you can't figure out some way to get it, and the longer without a job, the harder it is to get one. I think a lot of people struggled because the economy and job numbers. Supply and de

The game is riddled with small bugs, like you can knock the phone off the rock in the first level bunker then the cut scene will have him picking it up. Having the trigens fight the people throughout the game was fun, and stealth aspect as

I remember there is a bug with the hang glider that if you move down and up you gain momentum Back in the day far cry 1 was ultra realistic graphics. The game was fun to play, the most annoying thing is if you throw a rock or grenade where

Why hasn't there been a GPT/LLM spam/scam wave?

It's an interesting and legitimate question. But just as it takes business time to pick up on new technologies and adapt, it might take institutions as well. I've seen reddit posts of people getting writing flagged as AI written w

It has a complex history but a lot of it started with the Prohibition historically, when alcohol sales ended some restaurants started allowing tips and it became more commonplace.

It always seemed to me the basics of a messenger app would be the easy part to be accomplished. It's the marketing that would be hard seeing as there are already existing solutions such as Slack and Discord.

Looks like this was hacked together pretty quickly. This in CPU is exactly what needs optimized to run on more devices, if that's even possible.. I guess it will take hardware and software a while to catch up to compete with ChatGPT..

Do LLMs have a way around the high end GPU requirements, or can CPU code potentially be much more optimized somehow? This is the only thing I can think of, not everyone will have the latest high end GPUs to run such software..

It can make mistakes and hallucinate. I've found GPT-4 to be slightly better than earlier versions. Ideally tell it one step at a time you need done, I've found that it struggles with multiple overlapping steps for some things but

It's such an obvious answer perhaps is why nobody has commented it. But depending on the use, you might try web speech API synthesis. For example a Windows user might see a Cortana option whereas a Mac user might see Siri. Demo Here:

Get diet, sleep, and exercise right. If any of these three are off, energy is lower. I wish I could oversell this point a little more, there has been plenty of times over the years I've done something small on days - missed an hours sl

Interesting thoughts.. I'm just not sure if it would make a difference even if it was outlawed. The algorithms are out there, and it will only be a matter of time until more organizations adopt them to make their own programs. The tech

It's definitely not a bunch of humans masquerading as an AI. The response rate and length is too fast for some unique questions I've asked it. Like try asking three random movie characters to roleplay a meeting, or think of some u

In my queries ChatGPT has trouble with Pig Latin. Maybe further queries could teach it, but by default it seems a little off.

On past who is hiring threads I seen posts throughout the month, but in September it seems it only lasted about the first week before new posts stopped. Perhaps the posts were restricted to a certain time frame, or coincidence?

The success of such an idea would depend a lot on location. It makes me think of the old "listener booths" for music that are antiquated now. Maybe do a cost benefit analysis or try to estimate traffic, just leasing it out might e
