Might be worth considering that in a specific example or context this may make sense, but zoom out further you will find that goals are solutions and solutions are goals. It's a hierarchy, as Paul referred to as a "tree". Eac

Despite what most media wants you to think, the recent run up of GME isn't directly related to retail investors (having too much money). The price increases have been happening mostly in pre market and in big blocks, which indicate it&

Built for product managers who want quick bug fixes and engineers who want clear and reproducible bug reports. It's NOT built for everyone. Right?

This was exactly my experience. I have very complex prompts and I test them on new models and nothing performs as well as GPT-4 that I've tried (Claude 3 Opus included)

A pretty material portion of the population actually doesn't have much of any imagination, and these people, especially when they have had some success and developed "expertise" will always assume if they can't imagine i

For the record, I meant the same thing: (while maintaining privacy and security, eg while supporting anonymity). Blockchain attestations seem interesting but I'm not yet convinced by them. I'm glad there are people working on this

If you wanted to create a user authentication system that could reliably differentiate between humans and AI, how would you do it? Not trying to defend worldcoin. It's just that this problem of differentiating people and AI online matt

Yeah I guess to hell with all those people who are building the next generations of games and gaming platforms, and the millions of people who are looking forward to them. Let's sacrifice all their purpose and enjoyment so your AI star

Yeah I wasn't very clear in my comment that I don't mean to judge the unique software stack for each aircraft as a result of the broken culture, or even dysfunctional (though as an outsider I did find it surprising). My point was

A lot of talk about the loss of engineering culture at Boeing. Years ago I was doing a research project on data interoperability and learned that each jet Boeing produces relies on over 200 different software programs. That probably isn

I went to Maui and got tossed around in some big crashing waves. One time a bunch of water, and probably sand, got shoved into my ears by the force of the wave churn. I was pretty deaf for a day or two, but then eventually woke up one morni

I have two complimentary prototype products with multiple customers paying for them. I'm just scouting out people who are passionate about this problem and who could be a good fit for when it scales.

I am working on this problem exactly. The way I describe it is that I am making unmet market needs transparent. It involves modelling jobs to be done, importance and satisfaction at scale and then measuring areas that represent bumps in the
