Absolutely, the quickest way to lose faith in "The Science" is actually to do Science in a formal research institute....

As someone based in the EU but an English speaker I like to buy from .eu domains, the language will probably be in English and the shipping pan Europe while still priced in Euro with no import duties. I trust .de domains too for the same re

Hmm it didn’t work that way for me, first I asked it to summarise a video, then I simply posted the link to the video assuming it would give the transcript, in both cases it summarised the transcript. But if I start a new session and simply

I've been using Voxscript [0] for a while, after comparing the two I think voxscript is better, gives longer more detailed summaries, TexTube just seems to give a very brief impersonal overview. Easy to try both and see which you prefe

There is this false idea that setting up an AWS or Google or Facebook competitor is in some way difficult. It’s not, if Meta, AWS, Google were banned in the EU perfectly functional European equivalents would pop up very rapidly similar to R

In some ways I wish the EU would ban US tech companies, EU basically has no indigenous tech landscape compared to Russia and China who have suppressed US tech.

I have to agree, it’s unusual the way the writer described this man as living a “quiet life”. He was the head of the union in what was likely a major employer and had a large family along with probably a large extended family. He didn’t see

It’s an old blog post from over a decade ago (2013). Here is what I assume it originally pointed to: https://workmanlayout.org/

TCS is a very Indian organisation, it would make sense for them to hire Indians in the US. The reason this lawsuit is proceeding at all is because a senior exec said exactly this, they want to have more Indians working for TCS in the US. Th

Maybe the company simply prefers to hire Indians better cultural fit etc. this is one of the main things considered when making a hiring decision. Will this person get on well with the team, be productive etc.

I can’t imagine communists were too comfortable around other committed communists, being sent to the gulag was always a latent possibility if you were determined to be an ideological enemy.

Yes and what people don't realise is that exponential effects start to take place as a smaller population is than having fewer children and is this continues, the Korean people will effectively disappear in 100 years or so. Those fewer

I just use it to create the initial layout and then if I need anything additional I just ask chatgpt to create it. You still have to know what you’re doing but I find that GUI code is mostly boilerplate code that is really tedious to create

by iorrus 3y ago
I find chatgpt good for this kind of simple GUI design tasks, you can just tell it to create a simple GUI incl drop downs etc. It won’t be perfect but removes a lot of the tedious work.

I used to use this when I was just starting out on the web and the internet was still new. I used it quite frequently over the years initially but not for a long time. I feel a bit sad, it represented the hacker culture of the early web whi

Looks to be related to projective geometry in some way in which every point symmetry has a matching “dual” or line symmetry. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projective_geometry#Duality

What Substack is this? I’m interested in a good AI Substack that keeps me up to date. I follow a few free newsletters but something more in-depth would be very helpful.

Well he didn’t really get that money. Sam Altman on his own couldn’t have raised 1 billion for OpenAI. He was the CEO but the money was there already. He was largely parachuted in. I could understand why someone would buy into Musk’s vision

Yeah he doesn’t even seem like the kind of person that would connect well with a lot of talented ML researchers.

Yes, it's true that industry is not like this all the time. I've done the PhD/Postdoc route now working as a data scientist in mega corp. The value of a PhD IMO is the pain of forcing yourself to learn things independently, w

IMO this is exactly not how to do a PhD which should be about exploring a topic and becoming an expert over time. A meandering path concentrated around self directed learning. If you want clear deliverables and a set path to follow, just

I’d be more likely to work with Twitter now to be frank. Elon is obviously trying to implement an engineering lead organisation where coding and productivity are valued. A lot of these companies tend to be manager heavy, I’ve worked in plac

I don’t think these salaries are normal in Dublin maybe senior level at Meta would go up to €115k max (I recently talked to a recruiter about a job there and that was the level) Personally I’m on around €80k and senior but not in Dublin.
