Everybody knows GPT hallucinates - so occasionally it suggests code, you try it, and discover the functions or arguments it’s suggesting don’t exist. Code interpreter takes you out of that loop - GPT can find and fix its own mistakes.

Two things: - your 18 year figure is inaccurate, I know people who have made it to the top of the pay scale in half that time - GS-15 step 10 is not the cap for a role like this one. this is scientific/technical expertise, which is 20%

Those limits seem to be decreasing every year though. Lot of competition in the analytical SQL space. Also worth noting Delta Live Tables, another very popular streaming SQL implementation. https://www.databricks.com/product

I am a bit suspicious because ChatGPT knows which version of Python it has installed, as well as which packages, without actually executing any Python. And yet, this context is not in the shared system prompt for advanced data analysis.

If you’re interested in doing the reverse of this (replacing pyspark with sql) - Sqlglot can do this: https://sqlglot.com/sqlglot/dataframe.html

Taxis tend to cost half as much as Uber; if I see a taxi, I’ll take one to save some money

Uber sold off that division years ago, and is no longer focused on self-driving https://arstechnica.com/cars/2020/12/uber-sells-self-driving...

People pay more for digital media than physical media in other contexts for the convenience. I'm not going to buy a DVD on amazon to save a few dollars. It's subjective, I'm sure there's still people buying DVDs, but you

I’ll endorse one - been using Airalo for a few years, works great. I prefer using that app to finding someone at the airport to buy a SIM card from.

Not complying with the tax prep company’s requests is a bit suspect - we’ll see what happens, but it wouldn’t be impossible that Meta knew they had sensitive data and were taking advantage of it.

In this conspiracy theory - why wouldn’t the intelligence agencies get tax returns from the IRS directly?

Couldn’t you make that argument against all SaaS?

Awesome, thanks for the reply! The fallback approach sounds like it could be really great, hardening against modals and popups can be really annoying.

I really like this, but I wonder if a better approach would be to take that simplified DOM and instead generate playwright or puppeteer code instead of direct DOM manipulation. That way it’s reproducible browser automation.

At a glance this looks like closed-source langchain - is that a fair comparison?

Check out dbt - it's a great tool for organizing queries and solving such patterns

I've supported 3 different models over the years with inference implemented in SQL. First one I inherited, loved it so much that I implemented it twice again. Amazingly fast for TBs of data and no waiting on other tech teams. That tool

Exactly - and the challenge with that is the data is sometimes only available on BBG. So by not using BBG, you’re missing data, and are at a disadvantage. This is a data problem, not a software problem. The solution isn’t open source, it’s

In a war of attrition, yes, but this is a one-off. It’s not purely PR, I am sure the primary motivation is actually counterintelligence, which is why they are recovering it over shallow water.

For the pilots, it was - the US achieved air superiority quite quickly. Whatever point you’re trying to make, you lost it along the way. The outcome of of the afghan war was not ideal, but that was not caused by a lack of pilot training, th

Referring to it as a “prank” is what puts it over the top for me
