You can never make fast and hard rules about when to repeat yourself and when not to, it probably takes a lifetime to know when to do it correctly. I'm pretty certain programmers are not going to be out of work anytime soon.

Using Elixir+Absinthe solves most of these problems and the idea that a non-self documenting API doesn’t need every field to be secure is quite frankly a ridiculous thing to label as a problem for GraphQL, maybe the self documentation encou

I actually think the BEAM is an ideal environment for machine learning, sharding things across machines. The only thing I’m not sure of is if PyTorch etc. are more optimised than XLA the backend Axon uses… would be good to see some performa

It’s like one of those logic problems isn’t it; if what you say is true (and it likely is) then why hasn’t the report been released? It likely contains information that even at the fantastic fees WilmerHale charge couldn’t be skirt around.

I’ve thought about why you couldn’t do this forever! Amazing technology but I always thought multiple audio input should be able to make a room a better source not worse and full of feedback.

I just bought a second hand M2 Air in perfect condition and it feels faster than my M1 Max in a really beautiful body for travel. I’m not certain it matters that much anymore to be honest. What are you using it for?

I think it’s time to cancel that Chat GPT subscription and move to something else. I am tired of the arrogance of these companies and particularly their narcissistic leaders who constantly want to make themselves the centre of the piece. It

Maybe it wouldn’t be an algorithm, maybe it would be a reporting site where you can review your experience if there’s no way to calculate it.

Are these people absolutely stupid, we could end up in a potentially catastrophic cyber war at some point and we need to be looking at better more secure systems than making even further holes in what we have!

I love that the Erlang guys seem to be so open to Elixir being a big part of their ecosystem even relying on ExDoc for their new documentation system (I think everyone can see it's a big improvement over the brutalist UI that was there

We have almost run out of training data already so I’m not convinced they will get massively more generalised suddenly. If you give them reasoning tasks they haven’t seen before LLMs absolutely fall apart and produce essentially gibberish.

Well I think the ICC disagrees with your assessment of them, and they are in fact proving you incorrect by doing the exact opposite of what you’re claiming; attempting to try people who have potentially committed war crimes even though they

That’s a lot of words with no proof isn’t it, it’s just your theory. Until I see a well designed study on such things I struggle to believe the conjecture you make either way. It could be quite possible that you benefit from Slack and I don

I think we should think of AI more like a search engine that understands deeply what we want right now than a person helping us. And if anyone owns anything the AIs regurgitate it is the authors of the training data.

The idea that Slack makes companies work better needs some proof behind it, I’d say the amount of extra distraction is a net negative… but as with a lot of things in software and startups nobody researches anything and everyone writes long
