I work on this typed lua language in lua, and sometimes use llms to help fix internal analyzer stuff, which works 30% of the time for complex, and sometimes not at all, but helps me find a solution in the end. However when I ask an llm to g

I've been using adblockers for as long as I can remember, and now also sponsorblock for youtube, so I don't see them in that form either. My point is that there seem to be more things to "skip over" these days. Search re

I may be wearing the same glasses here, but it felt like ads were more like "real ads" back then. Like when walking down a street, you may see some posters advertising something, but they are clearly ads, because they are noisy re

Maybe a better analogy would be English and why it's written and read left to right. To me at least, it feels very wrong to see English written right to left, but I also know it wouldn't be objectively wrong.

I have never really worked with pytorch professionally, but it feels to me a lot of the open source, especially generative oriented projects, just use pytorch like this. It makes hacking on the models a whole lot easier. comfyui is a good e

game math libraries often have this (and glsl gpu shader language), like "2 * vec3(1,2,3)" results in "vec3(2,4,6)" There are other cases like adding vectors to matrices and so on, but in the end this logic is defined in

This is my experience too most of the time. Though sometimes it does work, and sometimes a solution is found that I never thought of. But most of the time I have to change things around to my liking. However, a counter argument to all this;

I find that these complex types often reflect the underlying complex code. This usually happens when you interact with something that is explicitly written for javascript and takes advantage of its dynamic nature. (usually the base javascri

There's no 100% with ai, but yes, I'm implying that a mistake like this is not likely to happen with high parameter count models, and very likely to happen with low parameter count models.

I don't know how these things are deployed, but I imagine they are using sub billion parameter count models? It doesn't make sense to use high parameter count ones at least due to costs. But then I feel there is a disconnect in ad

On a slightly related note, does anyone feel copilot is not as powerful as it used to be? It's kind of hard to pinpoint exactly what it is, but it feels like it often either does nothing, or generates the bare minimum. I think one conc

In some weird way, LLM's act out our collective fantasies and "AI sentience" is included in that. We write fiction covering many scenarios of how AI will be sentient, so an LLM's training data is full scenarios like this

Aha, so in the case of Bắc Ninh, its English name is the same as it is in Vietnamese; with diacritics. I was going to say Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City have gotten english names indirectly due to their popularity or relevance in Vietnam, but
