I listen on 1.2x on Spotify and 1.3x on Audible (has more fine grained control) and it just sounds normal after a little while. I tried 1.5x and it was tough to follow. My wife thinks I'm insane anytime she hears the audio. It's i

Thanks to the Tesla owners on the front lines risking their lives for the greater good (of Tesla)! Jokes aside, it's gotta be damn tough to QA a system like this in any sort of way that resembles full coverage. Can't even really d

Fair, but you certainly pay for this in other ways with apple. I can afford to buy 2-3 laptops for the price you pay for one. And in most cases those types of events never come into play. Apple crushes on battery life but I've yet to c

He didn't give a great explanation. Just kinda kept dismissing it as a bad idea and suggesting other paths. I don't see why using the Davinci outputs verbatim would be a problem in certain situations. The goal is just to get a fin

Pricing seems extremely high for the specs once you start to configure. I really want to see a company do something compelling here but there is always one thing that's off...pricing, screen, last gen processors. I switched back to Lin

Is this just fine tuning a cheaper model like Curie on the outputs of a more expensive model like Davinci? I proposed this as a question/idea to an OpenAI employee on Twitter and he talked me out of it.

Same. That's one of the benefits of being able to replicate your environment with something like docker compose and then use a tool like alembic to manage migrations both locally and in production.

I use swarm for smaller projects and am happy with it, though I know it's out of fashion now. I may try Nomad next time around. If I needed something more advanced or with more scale I am probably in a situation where a managed service

This seems fun, but certainly unnecessary. All of those questions could be answered in seconds using a warehouse tool like Looker or Metabase or https://github.com/totalhack/zillion (disclaimer: I'm the author and

All of the best and longest lasting relationships in my life have been from a shared experience or challenge...school, a band, sports, sometimes work (those seem to maintain a work barrier though). These things tend to occur less naturally

They have been slowly removing targeting tools to make your spend less efficient too. You can't even target exact queries anymore without it pulling in 500 others Google's AI thinks is a match. On top of that there is definitely a

Poetry seems pretty slow due to some of the extra dependency logic it builds on top of pip. Whether this trade off is worth it probably depends on the scope of the project. For most of my projects I stick with pip and almost never run into

Aside from taste not always being there, biggest problem for me is some of the crazy ingredient lists. Part of what I'd look for when occasionally avoiding meat is a clean/healthy alternative. I can find this in something like a b

If I recall correctly one of the things that slows FastAPI RPS down is pydantic, though there is active development to make a rust-based core for that too which is supposed to be ~10x faster.

I'm happy to see them pushing this boundary, even if the end solution has a very long way to go.

It's a simple tool. Like any tool, you need to know when and how to use it. A conference would not be a great example, as there is generally plenty of other context to discuss there. And yes, knowing when/how to exit a conversatio

Sorry if I missed it -- Are there plans to offer a way to query this in actual sql? I believe SingleStore is MySQL compatible for example which I think is a nice feature. Basically I want to be able to interact with this much like I'd

At first glance this seems more confusing, particularly the grouping/aggregation syntax, though I suppose that's something I'd just get used to. Some of the syntactic sugar is nice, but some things are also unlike SQL for no

I just switched back to Linux. The main reason was the arm arch software headaches and my heavy use of docker, but it didn't hurt that I got something that costs half the price of a similarly spec'd MacBook. I almost got the M2 Ai

Do you need GPT-3 for this? Maybe semantic search of your docs would have been more effective at finding real answers? I also wonder how many people that are trying to make effective products out of this stuff are fronting it with a more ri

It's not for everyone, and yes there is some luck involved. Some luck in terms of timing, some in terms of how good your network is. Some ideas just aren't that good too. I would say don't give up, at least on the general ide

I fixed this problem by not getting a MacBook Pro this year when my last one from 2018 had no battery and two letters falling off the keyboard. Bonus: paid half what a similarly spec'd M2 Air would cost.

For coding questions it does the same with methods on popular libraries! It's good at making a reasonable looking output and even picking the right libraries you'd need, but then just makes up a well-named-but-non-existent method.

Looks good! I'd love to see a bring-your-own-hardware/cloud version that still includes all other features / UI. I read you plan to open source the execution engine but not sure if that's the full solution. Would pay for

My favorite part is when my Google Home stops the music upon my request and then tells me in a complete and unnecessary sentence that it has stopped the music.
