Yeah that isn't a magic get-out clause. I don't think I would have been immediately fired for this from anywhere I work at, but that's partly because I live in the UK. Every company I've worked at has said very clearly n

Surely the way streamers talk to "chat"? I've never heard anyone call ChatGPT "chat".

Sure, the problem is most people can only see the risks of changing code. They're completely blind to the risks of not changing it.

That is a super weird definition. If you only want to allow that you're going to have to ban basically everything.

Define "necessary". Good luck.

You know there was someone who tried to refactor whatever code it was that broke here and was told it was too risky.

Ohhh the WiFi scanning is for geolocation, of course. I was wondering why they'd do that.

I solved this by switching from Claude to Codex. It's crazy how much faster it is to reply and how much less verbose its replies are. Dunno why Claude is popular at all...

Yeah unfortunately it doesn't handle hypergraphs IIRC, i.e. one edge going from a single node to multiple other nodes.

This is great! There's a real shortage of good layout algorithms. Everyone pretty much gave up after Graphviz. Although tbh I have come to the conclusion that automatic layout algorithms don't work very well for large diagrams and

Very good idea! Google abandoned these long ago. I don't really get why so many Americans want RCS to succeed though. Do you guys not remember when carriers charged 10p/text? Why on earth would you want to give any power at all ba

I don't think their architectural view of CoT works is correct is it?

I expect they don't actually care whether or not people run Linux on macs. I mean they used to let you run Windows! Probably the real reason is just that it's extra work - both in terms of producing the docs, and in dealing with

Yeah I don't quite understand it either. Where's the intersection between people producing AI slop and people that have never read AI slop? I guess it's bigger than we thought... Or maybe they just don't give a shit. Tha

Local wealth & social class. Also population density.

I sort of agree with you... The trouble is your logic is trivially obviously nonsense. "Word calculator", "linear algebra"... This is just a variation on it's just a stochastic parrot / it's just a n

Well indeed. I think the ultimate point is that Git is severely lacking here. There are clear use cases (you listed some) that drive people to submodules or LFS, but they are both shitty solutions. We need Git (or something else) to provide

Nonsense. The USA is not bigger than the rest of the world.

> Set this config: `git config submodule.recurse true` Well that does save a flag at least so thanks! But I still have to run the command. There is actually a flag to do submodule update automatically when you checkout or switch branches

I disagree, even when you understand them there are still big problems with them: 1. Git doesn't support them very well. Bugs are disappointing frequent. Try changing a submodule to a directory or vice versa and feel the pain. 2. They

Rubbish, it was a great decision. So many websites wouldn't have been possible otherwise - Google maps, YouTube, ChatGPT, WhatsApp, etc. etc. Do you remember what the alternative was? Flash, Java, ActiveX. No thank you. Sure security i

It kind of is an explanation though - the explanation is that they believed the stochastic parrot / "just" next token prediction nonsense, and that those are actually not true. You can ask for a deeper explanation of why th

by IshKebab 1mo ago
Humans essentially do "next token prediction" too - there's always a choice between the next actions to take and they pick a good one based on what has happened in the past. That doesn't really limit how clever we can ge

It literally doesn't. You're going to have to be more specific.
