The sidebar is nice. I miss the grid though. Higher information density meant it was easier to skim through and look for a nice font.

Doesn't surprise me that Inter is number one. It is just so good. Every time I try out something else, it feels like a subtle downgrade.

That person should be banned from ever invoking "intersectionality" again. They've failed one of its most basic tests.

That's a separate issue. What I linked above is an opinion specifically on whether generated output is copyrightable.

by caesil 3y ago
You're referring to a Copyright Office administrative ruling. It's a pretty strange ruling at odds with precedent, and it has not been tested in court. Traditionally all that's required for copyrightability is a "minimal

MyFonts is a very convenient marketplace. Perhaps the indie designers should band together and create something like that of their own.

Is this similar to cursor.sh, or does it have advantages over that product? It's hard to tell if "knows your entire codebase" refers to small-context-window retrieval-augmented generation or something like loading all your co

I trusted that people could piece together that climate change is the upstream factor behind both the hurricane and drought. Sorry you think I don't have a conscience.

by caesil 3y ago
The drought and hurricane are likely climate change related. So if climate change is causing outlier weather that can induce wildfires to become more common near you, you should start preparing before the government makes you. That's t

This happened because of a confluence of several different factors at once: 1. Wildfires that threaten neighborhoods are not particularly common in Hawaii, so people don't have the same level of awareness around defensible space and fi

So many projects still using GPT in their name. Is the thinking here that OpenAI is not going to defend that trademark? Or just kicking the can down the road on rebranding until the C&D letter arrives?

GPT-3.5 is pretty much useless for reliable NLP work unless you give it a VERY proscribed task. That's really the major breakthrough of GPT-4, in my mind, and the reason we are absolutely going to see an explosion of AI-boosted product

With ChatGPT function calling I get valid JSON 100% of the time from GPT-4 unless I have made some error in prompting. The chief error is not providing escape hatches. LLMs look for a right answer. If you are feeding it some texts and askin

The LinkedIn case has already established the legality of scraping, so this argument falls flat too.

Since that delta is clearly a transformative use of your photo -- as in, the output doesn't even remotely resemble the input -- you don't have any legal claim to it, no. I'm not sure what the plaintiffs arguing otherwise are

Fundamentally, Big Tech is an outsized part of what sets America's economy apart. Breaking up any of them would potentially be a footgun.

Out of curiosity, since this seems like a real inflection point toward trending in that direction, if it becomes increasingly likely that LK-99 or similar material is indeed a high-TC superconductor, what will savvy people be positioning th

"once someone figures out what combination of prompt + extra data was used" This is assuming your thing is one call to GPT-n rather than a complex app with many LLM-core functions, and it also assumes that data is easy to get.

I'm also a member of Community Notes and I've seen it several times, as well as explanations from Twitter staff that this is how it works (this was pre-Elon).

I wonder if this doesn't have a lot to do with cars. In surrendering utterly to the preeminence of streets, we have essentially taken our open, free world and overlain it with an immense grid of electric fences -- thick lines all over

Can you explain why?

I'm surprised when I see a comment ascribing this to Elon deleting things upvoted higher than the comments that explain this is a normal part of how Community Notes work for so-so notes.

The idea that we need rules limiting how tall buildings can be, and anything taller is a blight on the public that we only begrudgingly trade away, and that this is axiomatic, is absolutely one of the core causes of the housing crisis. Espe

Whether you like it or not (and I certainly don't), you've gotta sort of admire the sheer vision of a fifteen-year project to build a browser so good it comes to monopolize the industry, all because you've had the foresight t
