If you are worried water will get cooler, let me tell you about global boiling… Cynical joke aside, renewable electrical systems also need cooling: heat pumps for AC, but also cooling batteries, solar panels if you want them to perform well

It's not that hard to suggest access monitoring, isolate routine aggregate metrics and occasional needs, and have a process around other reasons why you'd need to run some more detailed analysis. You don't need the separation

Has Nino integrated Git into their tools? Editing lines of code over a GitHub diff window makes sense, but I’m not sure how that would work in, say, a spreadsheet: I don’t know if adding a line =21%*G17 below G17 is a good idea; I’d much ra

One great solution for that would be the approach many advanced Markdown editors like Obsidian have: the documents remain usable. You might lose some benefits (the integration between documents in a graph-like structure) that are specific t

Nothing says that YouTube (Google or Alphabet) cares a little too much about automated processes and not enough about making sense of what’s happening than they not have pro-actively removed that IP from their content recognition system—hav

That’s a lot, but it doesn’t seem ridiculous to imagine that about half of the Western world (roughly Apple users) would pay them $20/m. That’s $240/y. Simplifying, it's roughly the same as if people replace their iPhones eve

I wanted to, but I have no idea if I’m supposed to write $20B or B$20.

You are assuming a lossy compression. Stylistic guidelines and personal habits of beat journalists suggest you might not, depending on how detailed the LLM is. The complaint has many quotes that are long verbatim sections.

Adding an extra constraint of no copying verbatim from a very large and relevant corpus will be hard to guarantee without enormous databases of copyrighted content (which might not be legal to hold) and add an extra objective to a system wi

You could keep that assumption and just serve a random video if some external IP dials a non-existent ID. Presumably, no one would do that except researchers trying to count videos (or randomly find hidden ones?). You can break the assumpti

I know many people who have set up Llama locally (myself included), and they mainly use OpenAI tools for their day-to-day tasks. I can’t imagine that for the vast majority of people, Llama would be an option, not without extensive packaging

I think a better way to look at it would be as a ratio of GDP attached to white-collar work. I’m happy to consider 20 $/m * 12 m/y * 300M = 7.2B$/y as their service to individuals: about a third of people in USA/EEA&#x2F

The talent itself isn’t, but the fact that they have the strongest signal for talent: they pay more, give more tools and talent-complements (data, training sets), and have more open business model helps them attract more talent for now. It’

People seem to think that’s an excessive valuation. I’m tempted to disagree—not that it’s high (it’s stratospheric) but that it makes sense. 1. People seem to think they don’t have a moat: They likely have more talent than anyone else in th

I think that’s the kind of pedantry that is relevant in that case and in designing your product and customer support tree. Friends of mine hearing him would say, He never says what the mistake is precisely, but there’s always the option tha

A little more than half of the plastic found in the ocean and large enough to be recognizable comes from fishing nets. Those are enormous and are used very aggressively: raking the floor, pulling hard even when it’s stuck against rocks, etc

As you point out, it really depends on what is an error. Most of the companies I know of have a Holiday freeze are video games, casual ones, even. Changes are minor fixes and optimization—glitches that a player likely won’t notice, but you

You are a lot more ahead than most companies. I’ve worked for too many places where the Christmas break was because of a lack of tooling. I’m glad you are two steps ahead.

Always be kind, and say it’s your fault. If you don’t do it for the sake of the person you are asking for help, do it because it works better. That’s the most practical advice [0] ever given by Hans Rosling [1], the Fact master himself: &gt

I think that’s a great policy as it’s clearly intended to help people when they need it, and get people to unplug when it’s valued by their loved ones. _However_ (that part is probably best bookmarked until Jan 2nd), it also betrays that yo

I don’t know about the specific local conditions there, but there have been more violent floods in Yemen and the UEA. Sudden precipitation is —oddly— somewhat common in Arabia and usually trickle through ergs, river beds empty most of the y

This article touches on the more critical and flip side of a significant problem, which I think will hurt many of the incumbents, while whoever figures out how to resolve it will gain a lot of credit. Facebook doesn’t explain how their ad t
