Nice! Last year, i did a very similar thing.. Recently, I found this [1] library by Tiangolo (the same guy who developed Fastapi) which addresses exactly the biggest problem i had w that setup.. That is, the code duplication between the Pyd

Crazy seeing this here! I searched for this last week, as I'm playing with building the same thing but as a VSCode extension.. See here [1] I found another similar project on Github, but it was from many years ago. Yours did not turn u

This was amazing and I loved it, on so many levels. The only thing I found ironic: "If you're going to record a historical occurrence, you can't beat a good stelae. ... What could possibly erode stone? Nothing that I can thin

I am not anthropomorphising anything! Nature doesn’t care, and i never said it does. Finding beauty in nature is a deeply human thing. It’s me who is sad, not the birds and the trees.. (*Nature as an ecosystem that is rich with biodiversity

I can see how many people think these pictures are cool. Unfortunately, all i can think of looking at them is how they are literally scars of the earth. We are obliterating everything that was there before and converting it into barren wast

Here’s the thing about modern AI.. They are black boxes. Not in a negative way, they just are. Logically, predictions are extremely simple: data (encoded in some way) goes in, answer (encoded in some other way) comes out. As far as traini

> Augustus a Roman emperor, was initiated into the mystery of two goddesses? What was that? Yeah right? That is weird now. But I’m pretty sure the simplified version of what happened to that is is: christianity + germanic invasions.. &gt

Very cool, thanks! This is a very useful and needed tool.. Can i ask what are the differences with respect to DVC, which has a similar purpose?

That’s a great writeup of what it’s like to learn to do this job ahaha. Everbody goes through this I think (Arguably I’m still going through this…)

That's amazing! Can you share more about what sector you are working in and what the software in question does?

Cool.. Thanks for your answer I have to say, in my quick tests completions do arrive slightly but noticeably faster than Copilot's.. Which is enough to make this interesting! Unless you are using a much smaller model, in which case it&

I'll go ahead and ask the obvious question.. What's the difference with Copilot? In my exactly 3 minutes test, it did worse, even if only slightly. Right now it is free, but that won't last, right? Do i have to expect any sha

Finally!! I don’t care what purists say, for me having a new set of graphics like this is a really huge step up for usability and immersion. When I tried it a long time ago, I couldn’t get much far. I’m definitely buying it, also to support

I am big fan of Gpt and not a fan of restricting its usage, but i think this decision is completely correct. Considering that, stack overflow is definitely one of the source materials for Gpt training, and probably a very significant one fo

That was beutifully written. Although, I feel like very often, the idea of resucing boilerplate should __not__ to hide the boilerplate one layer below- it should be to __try not to write the boilerplate__ … Take this very specific example a

Yes thanks! The date of video disappearing is so maddening. It is so blatantly, obviously bad design that is beyond me how that could ever have happened. Also agree with the sibling comment that youtube was _full_ of fun short videos, but t

I agree.. Except that, our exploits are so good now that we are not going to be victims of anything. Humans will adapt and continue to expand, we are absolutely not in danger I think. As for wiping out any other living ecosystem that is not

I agree with everything you say about the article, except for the idea that aggressiveness (in all its form) has historically been considered more childish that collaboration. I mean, the ability to go to war, together with being a father,

I actually agree with GP. Counterpoint: “the mess in software that we have today” (we at least agree on this) is precisely generated by the fact that people treat programming as a “craft”, where everytime a (apparently) new problem arises

Thank you! I wanted to tell you that I really needed to hear this today. I’m not even sure you are right about evertything, and you are probably oversimplyfing a bit. But lately I’ve been stuck on this projects with 2 developers (1 is me) a

Yes this is the the whole point of this Unfortunately, there is no way I can hope for that much… So yes, please, take my money and do All my boilerplate lol

Another data point: for me, it’s the complete opposite. On my new acer laptop with dual boot, windows runs nicely and quietely does what I tell it to, except for some random unwarranted Cortana stuff once in a while. On the other hand, Ubun

Honest question. Why did this happen? I mean how could it happen that such a basic utility as the router was developed with such fundamental design flaws that hosting a webserver at home is above the skills of 99% of people? There’s a route

> thanks to the [often hyperbolic] claims of its inventor To be fair.. I always see this in HN comments about V, and at this point it sounds just as a non-objective and prejudiced evaluation as the article is. I agree that the article

GPT3 does not think like a human, but it definitely executes code in a way that is more similar to a human than a computer.. Proof is, that indeed humans do get the wrong answer in quizzes like these sometimes! So i cannot understand th

I mean.. For many many humans, the Internet is Facebook running on a mobile device. Also, do they use Chrome in China? So I don't know about vast majority. Definitely one of the most reliable pieces of software that I use though, no do
