The point is not that it is something hard to compute that we can only approximate. The point is that there is no well-defined heritability independent of the environmental distribution .

Reporting on such stuff requires networking skills, not technical knowledge.

The UX of large cards and very abstract images feels poor to me. And I am sure there are a bunch of laws there on that very page that explain why.

Paris [1] and Copenhagen [2] have similar housing issues. Both are some of the most expensive cities in Europe [3]. Vienna has a large municipally owned and non-profit housing stock [4]. The situation in Tokyo was okay while it was growing

Weird title for a paper that argues that "Government intervention is critical to ensure that supply is added at prices affordable to a range of incomes". I would personally classify that position as "supply skepticism".

Yet the rent in Paris is still too high for an average French resident; and while rent is lower than in San Diego, the price of an apartment is higher. And, of course, median salary in San Diego is far higher than in Paris.

There is abundance of housing. It's just that people want to live in big metro areas that have extreme concentration of economic opportunity and amenities. I don't understand how transforming every urban area into Kowloon Walled C

I don't understand Stage 2. Did ContextAI app asked for access to Google mail, drive, calendar, etc? That's crazy. I can't believe any company bigger than a mom and pop shop would agree to run that outside of their own enviro

And I remember OSes today, 1 year ago, 5 years ago, 10 years ago, etc. Security was always a problem. People blindly delegate admin privileges to scripts and programs from the internet all the time. It’s hard to make something secure and us

An LLM. A coding LLM writes code with its tools for writing files, searching docs, reading skills for specific technologies and so on; and the analysis LLM processes all interactions, summarizes them, tags issues, tracks token use for vario

You analyze each conversation with an LLM: summarize it, add tags, identify problematic tools, etc. The metrics go to management, some docs are auto-generated and added to the company knowledge base like all other company docs. It’s like wh

I trust that an LLM can fix a problem without the help of other agents that are barely different from it. What it lacks is the context to identify which problems are systemic and the means to fix systemic problems. For that you need aggrega

What I think we will see in the future is company-wide analysis of anonymised communications with agents, and derivations of common pain points and themes based on that. Ie, the derivation of “knowledge units” will be passive. CTOs will hav

The article starts with the comparison of DSPy and LangChain monthly downloads and then wastes time comparing DSPy to hand-rolling basic infra, which is quite trivial in every barely mature setup. I conjecture that the core value propositio

It’s especially ironic considering the title and the fact that many employees are not US citizens.

The situation in which people exchange favors within their mutually beneficial personal networks seems to be the basic and typical way things function. It’s actually remarkable that we are able to resist this tendency and normalize fair and

Why for you is innate grit any more commendable than innate intelligence?

Are they even a developer? “Safety and alignment” as AI buzzwords are quite different from “security and privacy”. In any case, I wouldn’t take a random person with a sinecure job as exemplary of anything.

TL;DR There is no secret sauce, it's the same set of techniques you’ve seen in most PostgreSQL scaling guides. Those techniques do work.

The article puts punctuation into its rendering of the original text. That confused me too.

It clarifies exactly what that means. It doesn’t say that the information have to pass the test of time. Only that it is not a place of original reporting, unsourced gossip, etc.

That's a distinction without a difference, in the end you still have an arbitrary bash command that you have to validate. And it is simply easier to whitelist directories than individual commands. Unix utilities weren't created wi

If you are a professional in a sphere like engineering, then getting eg 10k views on your videos is very remarkable and acts as a indirect proof of acclaim. But when it is the whole metric, then it just overvalues public professions where i

Pearson correlation = cosine of the angle between centered random variables. Finite-variance centered random variables form a Hilbert space so it’s not a coincedence. Standard deviation is the length of the random variable as a vector in th
