Yep, I need to compare the new models and update everything. Foolish of me to generate ahead at all!

Fair points, thank you for the very thoughtful feedback! "Alexandrian who found area from mere sides" is a bad hint because it is fairly obscure, and really just a history trivia check. And the image is a bit random. You can vie

Just a python script to render then api call with a prompt to check if the render looks right.

I tried this a few months back with claude 3.5 writing cadquery code in cline, with render photos for feedback. I got it to model a few simple things like terraforming mars city fairly nicely. However it still involved a fair bit of coachin

Yeah, I definitely see using this for literate programming. Not quite sure the best way to organize it. Maybe use a static site compiler to auto host documentation version.

It was a stupid and shameful tweet. The thing that elevates this above a drunk tweet though are the "real life" postcards. Should we ignore the fact that the postcards seem very much a false flag?

It has been interesting seeing the sleuthing on this one. IMHO it is unfortunate to have this happen to a company that has been very pro open source.

The link just changed. Why? The original was the verge article, that was frankly terrible. It really read like the author had a specific goal.

Have you tried using ChatGPT to study? It's pretty incredible for learning, particularly interactive exploration. The point of this plugin is to give ChatGPT access to reliable information to help it be more accurate and informative, a

This is a shame as bing search api was much better documented, and supported (at least as of a few years ago). Google switched api specs and dropped features at an even faster rate than their consumer facing products.

I feel like this headline is deceptive. This is a Jax reimplementation, and it was released a year ago. It is a cool library though. The basic operation of muzero is very simple, but training it efficiently is tricky.

We can define intelligence in a very real, practical way now. We see and identify intelligence all the time in humans and in animals and in AI. We may not be perfect at identifying it (just like grog might mistake a rising sun for a forest

Maybe that post has been edited into coherence, but when it was posted that summary was misleading or flat wrong about a lot of points.

I've been using a modified version of lsteins fork since almost the beginning. Recommended! It does lack some of the features of eg automatic1111, but it has good cli, and actually has a license, which is pretty important (as novelai h

I agree that declaring a win is a bit impolite _if_ the other person hasn't agreed. But changing "farmer" to "robot farmer" because Google won't allow him to generate pictures with humans is obviously not chang

The power of allowing everyone to make foundational types and functions that work together is indeed dangerous. I'm not sure you are better off in the even more dangerous waters of c/c++/fortran, except that they are older an

How much did Sonos pay to get this article written? It's tripping over itself praising Sonos and repeating over and over that Google should pay Sonos.

I feel like this is one of those infomercials where the actor in black and white is super clumsy. Looking up what time it is in Melbourne? Google. Looking up whether the sun is up new in Melbourne? Find a webcam in Melbourne. Timezones are

The name of the show is a play on the DnD feature of rolling a critical. Seems a bit unfair to criticize someone else borrowing a classic DnD term just because Critical Role got so popular.

That last sounds wildly implausible. Are you saying they booby trap it to set off the high explosive if someone tampers with it (making it a booby trapped dirty bomb)? Because otherwise there's really nothing stopping some dude with an

Excellent. You should have different premade profiles like SexyMysteriousCool, LovingCharitableResponsible, FunPopularWanted, HasACutePuppy so users don't need to plan how to look interesting.

HN has been pretty hostile to the idea. I submitted Jeremy Howards video and research collation, and got a single borderline insulting comment. Unfortunately people have largely made up their minds thanks to the plethora of attacks on masks

I mean half the video is talking about the (proven) effectiveness of homemade cloth masks of various materials vs N95 and surgical masks, so you certainly can't accuse them of not understanding the difference. You are making quite a st

Seems like a reasonable fit for HN. If you are skeptical look at their collated list of papers on the effectiveness of homemade masks. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HLrm0pqBN_5bdyysOeoOBX4p...
