i wonder if we could train a modal, and omit all data prior to 1899, and see what happens?

This! I get frustrated when i hear folks in the US claim Trump has failed them. You failed yourselves. The system is falling apart and barely half of people turn up to participate in elections? What are the rest of us expected to take away

This seems really simple to store as a graph database. If for some reason it does matter the model can just study the graph to contextualize its response? I don't get why Monica would struggle with this...

That's fair. I replied to someone else with a similar remark, but essentially doing most of my flying in 70s to 90s prop planes, I imagine the tools I'm most used to are just dated. Your point around training is likely very accura

Yeah that makes sense. My experience is mostly in 70s to early 90's prop planes, I have had the opportunity to use a glass cockpit a few times and it was much easier. I guess i did the typical thing and contextualized this on my experi

On VOR: It's also a PITA to use, and for inexperienced people, or someone who rarely uses it, they can confuse flying towards and away from the station.

Amazing. I love that i didn't know this. When i was studying weather as part of my pilots license i noted the basic mental math that i'd lose ~2 degrees celsius per 1000ft, but never did i take a second to ask, what happens when i

Wait, so at 28k/km the temp goes up to 15C? This is all very cool but this temperature reading caught my eye as unexpected.

I wouldnt say it is, but there are circumstances when speed is helpful. I wouldn't argue that coding is one of them.

This is the feeling i get too. Cant produce quality, but can produce something that is super fast...so take the wins where they are.

Maybe in the US, in Canada i find their online services are pretty average. A lot of the time i search for something and i get a US link, much to my disapointment.

Yeah, home depot is a tricky case. They have a huge array of products, and in my experience when you cant find something you need to search beyond the store you're in....so the database you need access to isn't exactly small. Make

I used to run a company (2010-2018) where our customers were almost always using our product inside of grocery stores, which are almost always metal sheds with some finishings on the walls. Not so great for cell service, it became essential

So i've done similar things in the past - and my justification for 'app' over website has been offline. Does the PWA state of things resolve that in the modern days? If it did, yeah I'd agree, no need for an app at all.

As an Australian, Apples voice models have always sucked. I've tried using stt (again) more recently and its improved, but i'm so tired of having to Americanize my voice to get it to figure out what the hell i'm saying.

That success rate aligns with mine. I was also shocked, at first.

For sure. I mean, i think naturally you'll end up there if all goes well. Have some tricky questions prepared of course, but starting simple gives you so much so quickly and often tells you where their strengths and weaknesses will end

ha, i'd have loved that. I'm out of the world where I hire people these days, solo founder life. Maybe i'll go back there, but it's a real mission objective to just be a one man show right now.

So for about 10 years my main interview question was: "Write me a function in any language of your choosing, that takes an array of integers and returns the sum." I loved it. Here is why: 1. I'd get to see them write code, in

I'm glad you're asking because I've seen it too and don't get it either. I assumed initially it was alpha as a typo, then I Googled it and got even more confused.

None of those things are knowledge. I think theres something specific around limiting access to knowledge and capabilities that makes this feel insidious.

Some do. Sr-22 for example. However, often if you’re handling things well, loosing an engine isn’t the end of the world. A lot of accidents happen very close to the ground, at height wear a parachute wouldn’t necessarily be helpful anyway.

Given the trajectory of the world’s on, it seems pretty obvious to me that diversifying from oil and gas is required for a long-term sustainable economy. I think the more interested in short term benefits than long-term success.
