Mono as a runtime hasn't been relevant in almost a decade now (since the advent of .NET Core). "I can go into the compilers to find bugs" -> yeah, that's what Roslyn is. C# lets you control GC, marshalling, safety, ca

I read very fast (English and code, and my native language), and I have a very vivid visual (as well as auditory) imagination. Wonder what I traded off in this setup.

The confidence interval comment still applies for any production or client environment I've ever deployed code to. Unless you actually expect your environment to spend more than 5% of its time on average getting suspended and resumed.

Why so? Zero-order effects are not unheard of in biology. Example: the elimination rate of ethyl alcohol is dose-independent because any practically noticeable concentration of ethyl alcohol will saturate available alcohol dehydrogenases.

Why are you ruling out the possibility that training on the material may confer an advantage when the data is presented, even if the advantage may not be strong enough to pass the test without the data present in the context window?

1. Your original wording, "getting a response _for_ n tokens", does not parse as "getting a response containing n tokens" to me. 2. Clearly, _you_ don't know the API, as you can get output up to the total context le

I dunno, I get a response back for 100k tokens regularly. What is the point you are trying to make?

And why is that bad? Your mindset would mean that Windows would have next to no backwards compatibility, for instance.

"Insecure mode" sounds a lot better than "default mode". If I didn't know what any of the options meant, I'd feel safe using BlockCipherMode.Default, but I wouldn't feel safe using BlockCipherMode.Insecure

Non-instruct-tuned LLMs are far more likely to say "I don't know".
