That's the value prop of large language models (and here, of OpenAI's LLM): because it's been trained on some "somehow sufficiently large" corpus of data, it has internalized a lot of real world concepts, in a "

Funfact: PQ is short for toilet paper in French So libpq always cracks me up. But then again there's a theorem prover called Coq (which is indeed pronounced as you imagine, it means rooster) and it's been named by French researche

A few years ago, I found surprisingly difficult to sort a file that didn't fit in RAM in Python; I couldn't find any simple libraries for this kind of stuff. Disappointingly, I ended up writing my data to a text file, sorting with

The fact that 85% on all new jobs are temporary contracts is nothing surprising, given that somebody with a permanent job (CDI) will usually stay much longer at her job. So for each permanent contract there will always be many more temporar
