Big fan of unsloth, they have huge potential, could definitely need some experienced GTM people though, IMO. The pricing page and messages sent there are really not good.

You are wrong. The examples which you describe there are illegal. Laying off people is not.

Not much to see here, a company cuts cost to maximize profits because that's why it exists.

Even though this post it utter nonsense per se, it's kind of refreshing to see how the 2021 arrogance of the SWE job market turned tables...jokes on who?

This is sad, devastating, and not surprising. Yet, people voted for policies that will further accelerate climate change and its consequential destructions in the next four years. As someone not living in the US, this is unbelievable to wit

Why would it matter whether such a tool uses an LLM or not? Tech for the sole sake of tech never worked and never will, so this is an immediate red flag.

Not sure about that, but resentfulness, arrogance and hubris are more present than ever on HN.

Am I the only one who finds these types of comments arrogant? I mean, we get it, you know better and have been doing this for a long time and so forth...Sometimes I feel like it's just about relativizing whatever tech is popular right

> you can't accurately forecast beyond a week Totally wrong. You cannot generalize such a statement because it depends on the micro and macro weather conditions. A very stable situation makes it very easy to forecast one week and be

Wondering whether this development will decrease the high level of arrogance that one encounters across developer teams (not always of course, but the tendency is evident). Yes, programming is much more than coding and not everything can be

I was referring to the comment I replied to being downvoted. That being said, I agree with you, my point still stands though.

> The large model is the one that has memorized the whole internet This is totally wrong and a potentially dangerous way to think about LLMs. They have no clue about what's factual knowledge and what is not, per design.

What is "gifted" supposed to mean? Money? Career path? Not being sarcastic, but reading through the majority of comments is much more sad than any kind of gifted. What does being a CxO really mean when all your fundamentals are me

How are 'hallucinations' a phenomenon? I have trouble with the term 'hallucination' and believe it sets the wrong narratuve. It suggests something negative or unexpected, which it absolutely is not. Language models aim a

Well, engineers have been very much at the top of every layoffs list these past 24 months. Not sure who is speaking to you.

Companies that don't want/can build it by themselves, so the majority of enterprises. It's a nice series A by the numbers, at the same time, generating relevant revenue will very likely not happen (given the valuation at this

As we see a very typical bubble right now, what's likely the right time to sell? Nvidia for example is horribly overvalued with a full blown PE bubble, which, as in every bubble, will pop eventually

Regarding your last sentence: the European HQ might not exactly help for non-EU customers, but much much more so for actual EU customers (which is a multi billion Dollar market by itself). Sensitive EU companies would not use Pinecone, even

Nice. Top bad it's not a thread about OpenAI and/or Rust. I'm sure we'd see a magnitude of more experts here.

Reads like you're implying superior soft skills for MBAs, and the other way round. If SWEs really thought this type of way, this statement would explain more about SWEs than MBAs, oh well
