What aspect of Math are you referring to? Writing proofs intuitively is quite a claim, matrix calculus may have a say here, too. But please elaborate a bit on your statement.

And what about the governments like Berlin for example? Massive data breach, and guess what happens? Nothing to those who are responsible for the breach. So even though this is Korea, it is modern hypocrisy. Companies have to comply to more

Sometimes, sometimes not. It depends. My mantra is still "Don't give users what they want, but what they need." Product Design is a one to many relationship, while users are one to one tightly knit into their app. It isn'

I worked at a MS "fanboy" company around 2011-2013. Highly competent guys, really Senior Devs, C#, MS SQL, as well as using graph data - with one distinction: it must be MS. Open Source? No way. Git? No, they relied as die hard MS

I like it. I had a friend at school who came from SA and spoke Afrikaans - so I know how a natural sounds like. For language learning, translation, research - it is fantastic. It works very well for certain dialects as part of a local langu

I don't share your opinion. With no deeper knowledge to the matter, it is pretty senseless to speculate. "Numbers from GPT Astra" - well, well... Currently roughly 1000 engineers are working on Google Chrome. GTA 6 has around

"It is all just for your safety." and other excuses. Don't get me wrong, I think it is viable by Anthropic to do so, it is a business decision. Nevertheless the reasons sound contrived and mask the demand for such a lucrative

Maybe check in the other direction as well: Astra to Fable. I frequently simply let one of the three review what something that looks like awesome output by one AI gets totally annihilated by the other. Finished outputs are easier to improv

Exactly. See TikTok trouble as example and quite honestly, try a local open source LLM and ask it to use profanity, paint nudes - the LLM doesn’t answer the question of it is from OpenAI or Google. The thing is that needs more attention is

Did you study math? I did and I cannot relate to your comparison. Mathematics isn’t about calculating numbers but formulas and proves. I have to put it politely: until the advent of AI no machine ever “calculated” a formula for me, because

Serious question: how widespread and actually used in production is Zod? Honestly, it made things worse for me. JavaScript isn’t a statistical typed language and TypeScript already is something, where due to compiler issues I just use “any”

Hotkey usage means speed. Ironically you hinder people using their capabilities to the fullest. It also works in the other direction. And I agree with you: Vibe Coding literally automagically includes it, and I had the notion, that you must

This is an interesting ACID test, because at its root hotkeys as they are usually called, are a graph structure. And LLMs struggle a lot with kind of complexity - as we all do at a certain level, if we don't visualize it i.e. using pap

You are absolutely right. In fact with the hit on men’s sexual ability sometimes or often times you could consider this a hit hot (very sinister framing) on the practical side, having in the best case no anxiety and being able to meet peopl

The trick are tax deductions. I wouldn’t recommend buying any bare metal unless money is a second thought or you can fully deduct the price. Most often in the end you pay half the price then. Depending on the write offs you could even make
