Hell sometimes the ai may look at values in .env or other uncommited stuff. Its execution path may depend on which commands are available in the environment. The specific model and settings. On top of the inherent randomness if you havent s

The EU in its current form is mostly about markets. It routinely pushes for the sacrifice of government monopolies to the altar of the free market (see for a recent example the french train network). Most of its regulations are to ensure a

As someone who worked on transformer-based diffusion models before (not for language though), i can say one thing: they're hard. Denoising diffusion models benefited a lot from the u-net, which is a pretty simple network (compared to a

In between the beds?? Does that mean the shower was right in the middle of the room ? So that it would be impossible to place a double bed ? This is the weirdest part to me

You are slightly wrong. Python does allow you to put anything in annotations. ( pep 3107 that defines type annotations says that explicitly [1]). But it also defines a type checking annotations, which is a specific convention for using pep

Python has static typechecking which, while not perfect, works pretty well as long as you're not actually trying to circumvent it (or manipulating things "too dynamically")

This feels like something that should be opt-in, not opt-out. It feels trivial to have all clients that support it send a header stating they do, and it is ridiculous that the default is to allow sending reacts to clients that don't su

"And hence invertible" <- does every output embedding combination have an associated input ? Are they able to construct it or is this just an existence result ?

They are looking at the continuous embeddings, not at the discrete words inferred from them

If that is the case then why call it Agents.md instead of integrating it with already existing documentation files or calling it something like "Summary.md"?

by nephanth 1y ago
It is files that are meant to be read by software, not humans. From my point of view this seems like a prime candidate for a hidden directory?

From my noobish standpoint, it feels like most code shounldn't care what the page size is? Why does it need te be recompiled? What typically tends to break when changing it?

I mean, they might not have given thought to that particular corner case, they probably wrote something like > memcpy(void* ptr1, void* ptr2, int n) Copy n bytes from ptr1 to ptr2. UNDEFINED if ptr1 is NULL or ptr2 is NULL ‐------ It mi
