Sounds like someone has a call with Howard Lutnick in their future.

Man, they are cool, but I need at least a decade of clearly reliable functioning in the real world before I believe that those foldable screens aren't going to just break.

I think Baroque is the wrong descriptor for those passages actually. The constructions employed in both are very varied, its true, and the vocabulary is wide, not to mention archaic to our modern ears - but all the words are performing a us

You're not voting it into office (yet, anyway. Haha). Aren't we all just using these models to write code?

Is it not that certain train lines are somewhat deep underground? The Piccadilly line swims with respect to the ground in the centre of town, when it is below ground. Further out where lines are at the surface the routes stick to the ground

"and other countries" - kind of a short list, that.

As the saying goes - "Alcohol is an excellent servant, but a terrible master." The same could be said for Metrics. So much is measurable these days, and we love to watch the chart go up or down. If it hasn't been measured, it

Like someone who saw U2 in a small club in Dublin in the 1970s noting that they're not the same anymore. The internet used to be a Sub Culture. Now its the whole world.

pretty cool. I wonder if they could add a zoom lens feature, like if you squint a bit, the lens could form into a magnifier.

100% yes. As you say, Psychosis is an exaggeration but frazzled captures it. And it's definitely a feeling that "this is such an opportunity, but the window will close - got to make the most of it somehow". Very stressful in

Forte of the gaps :-) I'm exactly the same.

Heredity is only one of many flavours of cronyism.

I'm working on a native code backtester that compiles pinescript strategies, and (hopefully) runs them super fast. Also a parameter optimiser with different scoring methods.

I thought Claude Monet - Impressionist techniques applied to coding.

maybe different preparatory "system" prompts?

On the contrary - the LLM has had it's own version of "skin in the game" through the whole of it's training. Reinforcement learning is nothing but that. Why is that less real than putting a person in prison. Is it becaus

Why can LLMs not be responsible for things? (genuine question - I'm not certain myself).

I think the linear least squares is like a shear, whereas the eigenvector is a rotation.

No need for a formal command structure when everyone's interests point in the same direction. Self organisation will occur readily enough.

Just out of interest, why do you want to move? What's wrong with Claude and Anthropic in your view? (I use it, and it works really well.)

I sense a great disturbance in the force - millions of teens muttering "for fuck's sake" and tossing their phones onto the sofa.

I don't think that's it. I imagine op would be willing to pay to upgrade to Goodnotes 6, at which point he would own that for ever, just like Goodnotes 5. But there is no option to do that.

Sounds like they've realised AGI isn't just round the corner, and are retrenching to productise the things their tech can do well. (which is a lot).
