Funny how if you kept reading before commenting, they addressed that point specifically > We were cautious to only run after each model’s training cutoff dates for the LLM models. That way we could be sure models couldn’t have memorized

Very cool project! It would be really nice to have support for the other assistants that Microsoft released to use in place of Clippy (I'm particularly fond of the dolphin that was used in the Japanese version of Windows) https:/

Is that why the name changed to simply Hands. Makes sense but I hadn't realized the company was sold. I haven't noticed it affect the stores in any way yet.

The high-paying tech companies in Tokyo that I'm aware of are Google, Amazon, Indeed, Woven Planet, Stripe, and Doordash. Those last two are just starting out here so still have a limited presence. Those are basically your options. Out

I've been working for a large US company in Tokyo for several years now. No need to know Japanese for work; I know a lot of people that speak it very poorly (though I wouldn't recommend that if you're staying here long term).

Very cool work! Paradoxically, I've been slacking off on practicing Japanese diligently ever since I moved to Tokyo. I've been meaning to get back into a good routine so I'll give jpdb a shot. I'm curious how you did thi

devjobs.jp is a good place to start. American companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Google and Indeed pay well. I know a front end engineer with a few years of experience who got an offer from Mercari for 17M.
