> it cuts the step of installing the correct interpreter... at the cost of requiring the correct computer architecture. Obviously this depends on the product but I'd give anything to worry about interpreters over the correct compute

Why don't you read the code? The amount of people commenting on this, if there was something to hide they'd have probably caught it already and if not surely by next week.

And the majority of science sit in empty libraries with maybe a single citation by a postdoc trying to write enough papers to get the next postdoc...

Can it really be called the wrong tool when so many huge businesses and essentially the entire globe are powered by it? It’s certainly worked imo

I'm not saying Math is useless, I'm saying there must be tiers for topics in how useful they are such that someone can say "Hey, that's pointless!" and one can't follow with "Therefore all things are point

Farming provides food. Predicting the probability of water spontaneously combusting, while interesting, provides much less food.

Why not use “French” in a tweet and see if it’s flagged too?

Ah I apologize for the presumption, I just have seen so many Cryptobros going all in on ChatGPT and it sort of grinds my gears - I'm worried there will be all sorts of highly marketed get-rich business ideas sold to people now crypto i

Agreed that may be the case but all OpenAI needs to do is release a nice UI for GPT and they've suddenly pushed these SaaS out of the market. Why fund miners over the companies making pickaxes?

I wonder if "prompt engineering" will be replaced by improvements to LLMs within the next couple years and this is just a bad DX step gap along the journey

No I definitely have, it’s just so rare I can’t remember when I last did it. I do remember playing one in a blitz tournament 20 years ago! But if this is the first game they played, or if it happens in 1/10 matches, that’s wild

You're not wrong. I've worked in prod with all the cool languages (Scala, Haskell, Rust, Go, etc...) but stick to Python/typeScript when I want to be pragmatic.

Does anyone know if GPT4 creates a new object for each session or had one for all of it? Can these prompts leak?

That’s cool! I tried to get GPT to build a todo list from react to sql and the docker file but got a little stuck, I’ll try with 4 when I use it next

I rarely buy stocks or crypto but when there's bad news on banks I buy crypto and when people are crazy negative about something I tend to invest there too. For example when the airlines crashed during Covid in the US. It's a pret

True but Oslo is a real city, Palo Alto is similar to the suburbs. I'm moving to Stockholm in the summer and much prefer the look of housing out there!

I pay $3k per month for a 1 bed flat which comes out as 20% of my household income - I don’t feel poor out here with a postdoc wife and my own salary that’s not FANG. Life in a nice part of Palo Alto. The HN bubble is a bubble, I wouldn’t w

I’m in the Bay Area and make slightly less than $191k. Me and my wife are very happy financially :) This is a good idea and if you want money then you have to make the company more profitable which is awesome!

Oh no, our private VC firm is screwed by a private bank going under, time to get tax payers to help fund risky ventures in one of the worlds most expensive cities to foot the bill so our equity is stable! How else with other startups be abl

I think you seriously misunderstand the complexity of something like the 17th largest US bank along with its 8500 employees and global offices vs a code base. And if you're right, maybe they did know about the risk and were actively wo
