I just use Github as a backup and use my own git repos as primary. Works really well. CI/CD is blazing fast as well. You don't need all these complicated actions flows and all that. Just write for yourself. And a missing feature i

That's pretty clever. They're quite good on their own, but people do use this technique. Patrick McKenzie (patio11 here) says that people do use his voice to invoke assistance with corporations. Personally, I often ask for a UI to

You're right about who is causing the damage etc. but the 'commons' does not refer to the people; it refers to the shared resource. So a public park is the commons. And when it gets polluted with plastic rubbish etc. because

Fun idea on the cube. I tried it on my laptop and: * Found it hard to select the tape and drag it with the touchpad. If I happened to click in between two tiles I would rotate instead of moving. Very frustrating. * Your link starts out solv

Truly such a first-order Markov chain would not be a threat but it turns out that they have built a program that guesses the next word based on the last few hundred thousand and it turns out that it works pretty well for writing software.

All the communities that have high-anxiety seem to have universal high-anxiety. It's not that they have high-anxiety about AI but low-anxiety about dating. Or high-anxiety about loneliness but low-anxiety about AI. So realistically it

I think, crucially, we cannot do so without damaging the environment even without fossil fuels. In time, presumably environmental concerns will result in sufficient acceleration of depolderization until the Netherlands no longer has such a

This was loads of fun haha. I would have liked to have optionally clicked a button and started at my current physical location because the tile load time dominated how long it took to get there.

I wonder what distinguishes these kinds of communities over others. Some, like 'decentralization' or 'privacy' or 'security', require absolute adherence. If you're building a decentralized tool or a privac

Presumably the OP is proposing something like a TPM attached to the image sensor that signs the sensor output or something like that. You can’t sign it because you can’t get the key out. The key could be per-camera and be a published list.

Everyone likes to think “it’s the bots” or whatever but GDPR came before LLMs and the reaction to that was the same. I think you’re probably seeing just the effect of a bunch of Americans on an American site in awe at the legal barriers in

That makes sense given the structure of the society, no? If you were to build an organization whose purpose was a predictable amount paid out to the senior most members committed ahead of time for an indefinite period, you would prioritize

“It’s hard to do X under conditions C” is a good explanation for why “X is crappy” but it seems like a poor reason to re-evaluate “X is crappy”. For a small business owner, larger markets with lower barriers to entry are better than smaller

Yeah, Build The Wall rhetoric is pretty popular worldwide. While most associated with Trump, it’s a general view that people demand their neighbours be blood-and-soil compatriots. Immigration is generally seen as a threat to the local popul

Is it actually entirely a prompt-based information? I’d assume that some of it is the harness part of the agent setting reasoning token budget and compacting reasoning etc. In that case, the agent will respond incorrectly because it has no

That’s interesting. The browser is also a host of multi-instance applications which makes it a good platform for this. The ChatGPT web app works better with multiple tabs than selecting its in-app sessions in a single tab. Good observation.

Perhaps the real tragedy is not the animation. It is the fact that previously keystrokes would register even if the animation had not completed and now they do not. Interaction once you've entered a new mode should be instantaneous. In

I understand now that most software is slow because of co-tenancy reasons requiring controlling resources or simply because they're safely insulated from competition. e.g. GitHub is the former: you can give yourself a git host and CI&#

Interesting. Rather than run an in-house verification team, you allow for a third party (Howard Finkelstein's Help Me Howard ) to do the "this is not just a scam; it's worth escalating" and then trust them. Howard benef
