We need to invent "Touch Grass Driven Development" TGDD. These products are clearly built by people who live in the SV bubble. Nobody is going to use this pin in their day to day if you can't wear a seatbelt with it. Nobody i

It's a 25w processor. How will it ever live up to a 400w GPU? Also you can't even run large models on a single 4090, but you can on M series laptops with enough RAM. The fact a laptop can run 70B+ parameter models is a miracle, it

M1 Max sorry, I don't mean to compare a 4 year old tablet processor to the latest generation of laptop CPUs.

The focus on TOPS seems a bit out of line with reality for LLMs. TOPs doesn't matter for LLMs if your memory bandwidth can't keep up. Since it doesn't have quad channel memory mentioned I guess it's still dual channel? E

You have the right idea, stainless steel is supposed to require minimal work, but on a car its much different. You don't typically drive your stainless steel piping and sheet metal at 70-80mph into debris that can result in its surface

They had a ton of demand for them, but when the reality set in that stainless steel is a nightmare to align (sub 10-micron accuracy!!) and a nightmare to maintain, the car fell into the niche category. How it got this far will be written ab

"Let me plugin my car every night now, and take it to the gas station every week." People are lazy. Worst of all worlds combination. At least with a EV I only plugin once a week at my home.

Aider is the only tool I use for coding now with ChatGPT. Copilot is pretty good but I like the split context of declaring what you are working on in the CLI. It still suffers from ChatGPT laziness sometimes, you can see it retrying several

I am in the same boat as you. LLMs cannot even solve math problems, and we expect them to do tasks far more complex e.g. software engineering. Attempts to make them good at math have shown its not easy, and often times sacrifices language q

You can join dozens of tables with almost no impact? The only issue is joining with aggregations and sorting, that's where things get ugly with MySQL.

Definitely a multi-faceted problem, a big part is the pandemic, where some students just completely failed to do any work or learning while at home, creating a sort of tidal wave. My second theory is we have a dopamine casino in our pockets

I am glad we have an alternative to Docker, we tried to switch to it recently but it didn't work out. Hopefully long term it gets easier and easier to switch + performance improves.

I generally agree with your sentiment, maybe more when it comes to people like Donald Trump or SBF... But what do you want them to do? Build a shitty case in 1 year and get destroyed in court? Remember, Apple has thousands of lawyers too, t

Reminds me of a project I made to de-identify PHI as it was streaming across PG. The documentation on postgres data is very well done, and it's pretty straight forward to understand, you can find it here for anyone who is interested:
