Maybe my reading comprehension is awful, but I don't see it mentioned anywhere in the article that the "ChatGPT" from the study is the worst at coding of the 3 models that people commonly use. It seems relevant to mention tha

Interesting study, but unfortunately already outdated. I don't think anybody uses ChatGPT 3.5 for coding anymore. From my personal experience, Claude 3.5 or GPT-4o work best. They're more coding assistants, not really capable of w

I was curious, because I was always told Hawthorns weren't poisonous, and I can't find anything more about this. The only source seems to be the book itself, I couldn't find the study, and I can't find any other sources

> It sounds like you think Republicans are in general against government regulation. Nope, but I think most Republicans think that. Personally, I think politics is more about money and power than adherence to any kind of ideology.

It's interesting how fast political ideology goes out the window. Here we have the Republicans fighting for increased government regulation of private businesses, while Democrats are arguing it's unconstitutional and violates &quo

I was tangentially involved in a news story a few years ago. The reporter went to a small town, interviewed a few people, then wrote up an article. Only problem was they didn't actually interview anybody directly involved, it was a lot

Look up Cantara Loop in Northern California, a derailment caused a major environmental disaster back in 1991. They've never really figured out how to stop derailments there, they still happen on a regular basis. We've just gotten

Yes, thank you, I understand that part. It's the might condition in the description that makes me think the results might not be the exact same as what's used in the live models.

I saw that, but the language makes me think it's not quite the same as what's really being used? "how a piece of text might be tokenized by a language model" "It's important to note that the exact tokenizatio

When put together, your first couple sentences seem to imply that we shouldn't call Apple "bad" because they're just out to make a buck.

> taking the position that Apple is the baddie here is just as absurd. These are all big companies out to make a buck. I see this logic often, and I don't understand it. If I did something people considered unethical, arguing that I

I'm sure Bezos appreciates the PR you're doing for him, but you're wrong. "Up to $20.75/hr" is what they're offering, that's not the same as $20.75/hr. The pay rates marginally above minimum wage

To me, reading new code is like separating a bunch of string that's been tangled together. What thread goes where, what's it's purpose, how is it connected to the other threads? It's a very active process. Reading langua
