This is brilliant :-) thank you for this. I'd never come up with telling a LLM to "quietly think"... Now I'll be testing this with all my OS models.

I wonder if the UK ever decides to have a written constitution. On one hand they've been doing fine without one for centuries. On the other if this law passes the parliament that's it. There is no "constitutional court"

Is WhatsApp still requiring access to your phone's address book before it allows you to use it? It did last time I tried it. There is no chance in hell I'm giving it all the phone numbers, emails and names of people that trusted m

I wonder, let's say one uses it on an open source project that accepts donations. Is that non-commercial enough? Or is it a no-no because money is involved? I'm just curious. I'm glad such free datasets exist even if they are

In chatgpt there is plenty of "secret sauce" in their output sampling, sending the output for scoring by another model. As for Gpt4, allegedly it is a combined model(many domain specific models) so perhaps add extra input processi

I can't currently download the model, can people comment on the architecture. Is it a decoder only model? Is it using multi query attention? How many attention heads in all variants, how big is the context window? I wish they just publ

I have to say in my experience falcon-40b-instruct got very close to chatgpt (gpt-3. 5),even surpassing it in few domains. However, it is important to note (not at all)OpenAI are doing tricks with the model output. So comparing OS models wi

They say "medicine". I would say science in general, perhaps we could generalise even further to "any human activity is full of unethical people trying to exploit it". But 25%!? That suggest there is a big problem with

Exactly. I hate this too. I'd rather keep my github activity private. It's nobody's business to know if I commit 30 times per hour or once per week. On the other hand I recently encountered a very interesting hiring process.

I'm in a similar boat. I've used vscode, pycharm/idea, visual studio and vim etc. I'm currently giving neovim + i3wm a try, and there are certain things I love. Specifically instant switching between my browser and my id

I wish we lived "in the era of ipv6". Unfortunately one of the biggest mobile providers in my country (and the only one available to me at reasonable speed) has no ipv6 setup. Also, they NAT their entire network. So, to have any w

Thank you. It has been an indispensable part of my work from the very beginning. Tcpdump was fine, but being able to right on a packet and do "follow TCP stream" then see the entire conversation in a second was a game changer. Sam

You have a point, but my complaint is that a service like Google shouldn't work based on a binary choice. You either use a persistent session cookie and you're logged in at all times (even if someone else launches your browser),

I can only use my own example, but I'm very much of the idea point 2 in the article hit the nail on its head (there is no need for a CS degree to be a developer). For example in my own career. Back in the 1990s we used to have so calle

I'm definitely a skeptic when it comes to putting an AI in charge with no manual override of a 3 ton vehicle with humans on board, but having said that, this article didn't provide any meaningful information if these "inciden

If there is no collision, yes you're right, but if there is one.... Stuff gets thrown into various orbits. Most of the debris will deorbit quickly, but a small percentage can get a substantial kick and go higher.

Well, if they really released it as open source, I guess depending on the exact license a company that modifies(fine tunes) it and wants to make money on that modified version would have to distribute the weights and/or disclose the de

Exactly, I'm seriously considering taking my business off google's ecosystem because of the unwanted "we've sent a notification to your phone" confirmation requirement. I could understand if they did that if I sudde

At least in Europe there is GDPR, you have a right to request a copy of _all_ data any company has on you as well as you can request it's deletion.

I toyed with an idea of actually paying for a subscription, but I'm glad I didn't buy it. It seems other than "write me a nicely worded email about" I almost always use it for edge cases where it hallucinates horribly. S

The biggest difficulty people have IMO when trying to train language models in non-English languages is that there is not enough text written in these other languages to select a big good quality dataset. Also, there are lots of (poorly) ma

I'd imagine how much actual calories that is depends on the size of the potatoes. When potatoes fail, they often do so by producing tiny tubers. The smallest I personally ate were less than an inch in diameter. Also,people who don&#x27

Could someone explain what is the expected main benefit over btrfs? I've been running btrfs on all my "fast&busy" disks for quite a while, including hourly snapshots etc and I've been very happy with it.

Sorry, I haven't watched the film, but it's interesting to see how much of an impact it had on people in the uk. Looking at it from a geopolitical point of view at the time USSR was (economically) at the brink. They were failing i

Cool, but I suggest to look into using terraform for "infrastructure as code" for creating all sorts of aws services/infrastructure and maintaining state. It seems complex at first, but it is a lot more maintable and portable

Great stuff, I skimmed the article searching for some table showing a breakdown of content by language, but I haven't found one. I hope there is a lot of text in languages other than English. As for example in my language (Polish) curr

Exactly. It seems pretty obvious, so the real question is, why aren't all privatisation efforts do it like that (keep public control of the infrastrukture, privatise service providers running on it). I believe it's not done like t
