This link puts Winnie at about half the merch revenue of Mickey recently. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_media... Still a substantial franchise though, and looks like it got a bit of a boost aro

Sure, but the claim was that Winnie the Pooh currently brings in more money than Mickey.

by Closi 3y ago
Hmm I’m not sure - that might be true for movies but is it true for merch? Think of all the Mickey ears that get sold at the parks. Either way there is a boatload of Mickey related revenue still…

Because these are businesses that are probably using a calculator anyway. It's very much a cultural thing - punch numbers into the calculator and pass it back and forth when negotiating on a price, or add up the costs on a physical cal

While we can't be sure of most of those answers, they have stated it is running in Azure. Also we can probably assume the pricing is likely to be somewhat in proportion to the cost to run (possibly subsidised to gain market, but they

Agree - possibly this is even an example of how to do it? Clearly labelled as LLM generated and used to summarise a long RFC (where I personally didn’t find the abstract as clear as GPTs summary). But everyone will have their own views on t

Not always, I think that is an unfair reflection of LLM's in their current state. See two trivial examples below: https://chat.openai.com/share/ca733a4a-7cdb-4515-abd0-0444a4... https://chat.openai.com&

You are right - that's the feature! Plus it's point in time - I'm sending you the document as it is now, and I might start cutting it about or changing it after to send to someone else, but this the version I want to send you

And a third question - what kind of machine are you looking for? If you want a laptop, that's going to be a very different machine to a desktop.

Well according to Tesla it wasn't working just fine for everyone - they have been able to massively simplify their internal wiring. Classic example of legacy automakers happy to maintain the status-quo because it is easiest, while the

Well the closed source bit is that you also cannot reproduce the binary yourself (so we don't actually know if there is other code in Chrome), and Chrome presumably adds a load of (non open-source) code around sending your browsing dat

by Closi 3y ago
That would be great, if Chrome was actually open source, and if the Chromium and Chrome projects weren't run by a company with perverse incentives (see: Manifest v3).

It's a balsamic vinegar glaze, which is an ingredient, not what you get when you mix the ingredients together. That's why it refers to a 'balsamic mixture' once it's mixed in with other things. I actually think it&#

Well I just googled and Valve has 1,139 employees, and Spotify will now have 7,800 - It's nowhere near 20x. Still a big gap, although I suspect they are very different offerings and companies. Differences include: * Spotify needs to se

And presumably this is why it requires an LLM rather than a transcompiler. You want to translate 'idiomatic COBOL soup' which has been added to over decades into clean structured (possibly OOP) code covered by a robust library of

by Closi 3y ago
But there is one way it can be done - lots of painstaking analysis of the Cobol source code to attempt to extract the business logic (which is incredibly slow). At least this is how we did it at my old work where we were replacing a mainfra

This does assume that nothing is getting broken along the way. Taking 45 days is probably more about caution and resolving issues systematically rather than pushing a big button and hoping you don’t cause issues. I’d expect them to have tho

Why would we teach kids maths then, when they can use a calculator? It's much easier and faster for them. I believe it's because having a foundational understanding of maths and logic is important when solving other problems, and

As an additional note - the cost of the robot is only part of the cost. You have to bring the parts to be welded together to start with (i.e. some sort of conveyor system - decent conveyor is like $4-5k per meter) and the cost quoted there

That's the main idea of Blazor really - to start imagining what building the web without javascript really means. Hard to imagine web development without Javascript now, but with work of projects like this, maybe it will be easy to ima

It’s trivial to trip up humans too. “What do cows drink?” (Common human answer: Milk) I don’t think the test of AGI should necessarily be an inability to trip it up with specifically crafted sentences, because we can definitely trip humans

While your post sounds like something that would be true, there are loads of examples of where companies have thrived under a clear vision from a specific person. The example of Steve Jobs used in the above post is probably a prime example

By completely smashes, my assertion would be that it has invalidated the Turing test, because GPT-4s answers are not indistinguishable from a human because they are, on the whole, noticeably better answers than an average human would be abl
