I think LangChain basically tried to do a land grab, insert itself between developers and LLM's. But it didn't add significant value and seemed to dress it up by adding abstractions that didn't really make sense. It was th

When we see what we think is a cat, what we have categorised as a cat, I don't think we are looking at it from each angle and going, cat, cat, cat. I think there is an aspect of something like the 'free-energy principle' th

I don't think its analogous, I don't think we see a cat and our brain have it frame by frame adjust our synaptic weights (or whatever brains do). The whole premise of natural brains being able to learn by static images or disjoin

I'd say that was more like a single instance, one interaction with a thing.

Mostly someone has a Phd and convinced people to give them money to 'change the world', then need someone who has actually built things beyond a script in a python notebook.

I think there is potential, but at the moment it's 1. RAG your data 2. Magic 3. Agent business logic 4. $$$ where step 2 is very unclear. Also agent architecture what is it? A basic FSM which in essence is a bunch of business logic&#

Except (and really not wanting to offend Indians), what we did is import a large number (by percentage of tech jobs) of skilled Indians which drove down the market rate for those jobs, either way it had the 'benefit' of driving do

Little by little is my advice, be at hand but not a crutch, show them what they are missing out on but don't push them to engage, they have to decide they want a better life and to do something about it.

Yes, Anarchist were very much a specific thing in that context, not as its used today.

PwC and KPMG were appointed to help rectify problems with the system earlier this year, while the council had previously employed EY on the implementation. I'm sure those three bandits lined their pockets nicely!

Most people working on games have little input to the game dynamics, but sure have a bias for younger people because they can 'relate' to the market, and nothing to do with being more exploitable!

It would be great if emacs had a LLM co-pilot, I could have it look at my config (and tell me what I could improve). Also i could ask how to do things in emacs, it would have some knowledge of my setup, even my active modes etc, often I get

I agree with Git being overcomplicated, and the commands being a semantic mess, although they have improved somewhat over the years. I also didn't like how Github became some defacto self promotion thing. However, very few developers

Well if US stops protecting Taiwan, and China invades, that will end that debate. The new debate will be, Taiwan WAS an independent state and now isn't, and some one will come along and "yeah well that was 70 years ago!". Ps

Yes they do, and like I said, think they should be left to get on with things on their own. However they are a break away geopolitical state that was only enabled to do so, by support from US to protect them, if the US hadn't enabled

Very much something I'm interested in. The problem I have is it jumps straight in at a level that is too high for me, I literally can't answer the basic questions you start with. I need more basic introductions and foundations, p
