« Connaître est reconnaître » I don’t think essentialist explanations about how LLMs work are very helpful. It doesn’t give any meaningful explanation of the high level nature of the pattern matching that LLMs are capable of. And it draws a

Interesting, I didn't expect that. I guess stock markets have a good reason to worry about video game studios then. Now, makes me wonder if movie companies stocks were similarly affected when major video models were announced.

To understand whether AI world models could replace traditional video games, it might be useful to compare this to how LLMs have affected old-school role-playing games. LLMs are more mature and have been around longer than AI world models s

To people who downvote my comment (and there are many): please elaborate. I like to learn and improve. A lot of comments here are just baseless negative comments. Please let’s have a real discussion.

I think “middleware” is a bit of a misnomer in Next.js. It’s really an edge function that runs before your request hits the app -- quick header checks, routing, and other lightweight guards. It runs on the edge runtime, not on the app serve

It’d be hard to draw any conclusion. A whistleblower must be under extreme stress and pressure which in itself in some way or other will increase the risk of death — so that has to be taken account before saying the plausible cause for the

Some of the replies here are pretty good, I basically agree with “if it works for your data scientists then why not”. I’m actually a software developer with 10 years experience and also happen to do data science. And found myself in situati

I guess it won’t take very long before you can do PPC (or similar paid advertising) in LLM results. Google had to turn to paid advertising for profitability. OpenAI and the likes might have to do the same — competition is fierce and price a

Pandas has been working fine for me. The most powerful feature that makes me stick to it is the multi-index (hierarchical indexes) [1]. Can be used for columns too. Not sure how the cool new kids like polars or ibis would fare in that categ
