If the problem seems vague, then the solution is not for you. The concept of a "mom test" is condescending as well. Many moms code.

Yes, but multiplexing does minimize the problem. You could multiplex batched requests for hundreds of resources with my strategy.

They don't reduce request count. For example, Chrome only allows 6 concurrent connections (requests). If you load 10 images in 1 request, you've reduced network latency and avoided the connection limit.

As a publisher. One who seeks to decrease load times on pages that require many resources.

I already have a working prototype that batches media requests. In my example case, I'm sending 1 request and receiving 6 images in return.

I'm familiar with css sprites too. That's still just 1 image per request though. Say you wanted to populate a social media feed... you'd need to dynamically call media. That produces a huge amount of requests. What if you wan

Why such archaic examples? Imagine visiting this website, Hacker News, to read a few posts/discussions. Does the idea of circumventing a refresh offend you? You could click into a threaded discussion (from the homepage) and back withou

Ah, but that's not that case here at all. It's not an app. It's still a sandboxed web page. The only difference is the communication method. Rather than a transactional client-server relationship, we adopt the media-steaming

It does sound like it, but no it's just plain JS. I recorded a short clip; showing is better than attempting to explain. Edit: It is almost AJAX. The more I think about it the more the boundaries get blurry. Essentially, it's AJAX

By snoop-phone, do you mean stalkerware? I have not heard this phrase before. Thanks in advance for the clarification.

Let me clarify with some context. I've been tinkering with an infinite grid concept that consumes a streamed JSON feed (plus a sufficient data buffer to hide any delay from the user) to create and then display content with the help of

"State is fundamental to how these models produce coherent output." Incorrect.

Partially, I suppose. The risk vs. reward component also needs to be managed in order to deter criminal behavior. This starts with regulation. For the record, I believe regulation of AI/ML is ridiculous. This is nothing more than a pow

"Prompts very obviously have influence on the output." The LLM is also discrete.

"We arent meant to know exactly what it will output because that’s what it was programmed to do." Incorrect, we can't predict its output because we cannot look inside. That's a limitation, not a feature.

'If you have some data and continuously update it with a function, we usually call that data state. That's what happens when you keep adding tokens to the output. The "story so far" is the state of an LLM-based AI.'

"On a very fundamental level the LLM is a function from context to the next token but when you generate text there is a state as the context gets updated with what has been generated so far." Its output is predicated upon its trai

Regulation is the only tool for minimizing crime. Other mechanisms, such as police, respond to crime after-the-fact.

Finally, a relatable perspective. AI/ML licensing builds Power and establishes moat. This will not lead to better software. Frankly, Google and Microsoft are acting new. My understanding of both companies has been shattered by recent c
