Don’t have a phone but want to write code interfacing with a paid LLM? How often does that happen?

Nice work! Is there any risk that an evaluation and tweaking cycle accidentally changes the original test requirements over time?

220m users. Let’s imagine 50m are streaming concurrently. That’s 100TB an hour in logs lol. They could be storing an entire petabyte of logs a day. My friend did some data center stuff for the large hadron collider and wasn’t hitting these

Responses like this from C-levels in crypto make me glad I moved from the space after 4 years. Everyone is so egotistical. Blaming it on mental patterns of the employees without accepting it could be some really shitty management from your

FWIW when I was doing some banking courses, as I was working in DeFi and wanted to know more about CeFi, they have synthetic assets too. Which are derivatives. In fact in the Big Short movie I'm 100% they call derivates synthetics!

What nonsense. How many business owners in the US immigrated with basically zero and made > $1m? How many startup founders have come from disadvantaged backgrounds and exited/got acquired? How many first-gen college grads got into

Is it gatekeeping? They hire so many junior devs, do you not think it’d be possible to strip the team down by hiring far more capable engineers? Would Google crumble if they only hired senior devs like Netflix? I’m convinced they hire so ma

Video game devs aren’t paid ‘very poorly’, they’re still comfortably above a countries median, they’re just lower than roles requiring a similar skill. My friend is a game dev at Epic and loves it, FWIW. He doesn’t give a shit about money i

I've worked with Haskell professionally. It was... interesting. I'd rather be in shape than deal with Stack/Cabal/Nix again. If anyone reading this is wondering if they should learn Haskell - wonder if your time could be

Just joined a company that self hosts Gitlab (and everything else, there's zero cloud) but is 100% remote. So far everything has been seamless and there's a large enough infra team to solve these issues if they arise :)

I have just been given an M1 Max with 64GB of RAM from work and it has to be the most insane laptop I've used. I have a very big smile on my face when I build stuff.

I'm the OP of the comment this thread was responding too, talking about how I dislike Musk, but I'd still say he was the driving force of Tesla in that it was a close-to-bankrupt company that is unrecognisable of the company you s

It’s absolutely appropriate as he’s a leader in our industry. And on that note I’d no longer apply for a role at Tesla based on his very annoying behavior.

by exdsq 4y ago
I used to like Musk but honestly I’m so sick of him nowadays. His constant need for media attention, his shit posting on Twitter, his backwards attitude to remote work, damn he annoys me. Which is a real shame because I’d have loved to work

Doesn't matter if someone does altruism for selfish reasons - some people argue all altruism is inherently selfish - as long as the actions happen. And with SBF they do.

Ah I've been deep in Effective Altruism for a while and have a fairly reductionist view on these topics now. I also happen to know SBF donates to good causes, along with how those good causes operate. If that money has been made by a
