Commenting to follow, curious about the answer. From what I've found through Google (with no real understanding of llm) 2^16 is the max tokens per minute for fine tuning OpenAI's models via their platform. I don't believe thi

I'm a completely unknown artist with 4 songs on Spotify, mostly released during 2020. In total I'm at 54388 plays, which has earned $42.41. This is across all platforms, though Spotify is 95% of the plays. I'm not sure if Spo

Shout-out Nebula, an alternative YT/creator platform which has no ads or sponsor segments. It's a monthly subscription but fairly cheap, and it gives you access to all videos on the platform (unlike patreon which is for a single c

I don't think I've ever completed a training course on time, only after getting "urgent: 7 days to complete". I've got severe ADHD so these types of assessments are near impossible due to the slow dialogue and force

The problem wasn't necessarily the A/B testing rather than what came next, Cambridge Analytica. This current headline seems to follow the same message, that being able to manipulate a users mental health is beneficial to Meta.

When I lived in Sydney I had a few friends that frequently bought Rikodeine (dihydrocodeine cough syrup), which is also meant to be tracked via pharmacists recording IDs. My friends knew what pharmacies didn't bother to track it, norma

Relative to infinity, anything finite is small. I agree with OP, if anything it should be "finite universe".

Normally mine last 2 - 3 days, with maybe a couple days of ramp up. These ones sound very real, exactly like the voice of a friend or relative etc. The thing that makes them especially feel real, the voices always have some 'spatial&#x

Adding to this, I've experienced a few psychotic episodes but am not (for now) diagnosed schizophrenic. Even during my first episode, which was by far my worst while having the least experience, I was aware that what I was experiencing

Thanks for taking the time to explain, very informative! I've been meaning to look into the mechanisms of Ritalin for a while buuuut ADHD. Strattera is really interesting, I've heard of it but I don't think it's availabl

Not sure about the pharmacology, but I want to say methylphenidate (Ritalin)? I have severe ADHD, so I'm taking a pretty high dose daily, and I haven't noticed diminishing effects nor rebound. My dose hasn't changed in years

When you fall off a horse, do you get back on? Personally I head straight home and refuse to even look at a horse ever again.

I'm not sure what the solution is, but I do feel IP protection is important. If we were to get rid of it entirely then your success in the market largely depends on what resources you already have. Large companies have the upper hand a

I've managed to break venv, npm and composer (php). I don't use that as a reason to choose what I'll use in my projects, that's decided by the PTSD incurred from 7 years of php.

I absolutely would not opt to self-host, but unfortunately that's not my department. I agree about the performance issues, most of our issues were performance related and did seem quite random (though unsure if that was our self hosted

The company I'm currently at uses a self hosted instance, which due to our "security"* constraints we're grossly behind in updates. Not to say that's Gitlabs fault at all, but the amount of issues we have near daily

Do people really not know how fractional reserve banking works? I'm not saying the general public, but those with >$250K sitting in a bank. I agree on the disconnect, but I don't think it's all relevant to this situation.

It's unfortunate, and I only see it getting worse, though I'm hoping there's enough of us to influence the velocity. The sentiment seems to be growing, so I'm trying to be optimistic, but it's going to be difficult

Disliking the industry does not mean you can't find a space where you're contributing to something you believe in. In my opinion, the industry has been downhill since FB blew up and started abusing its power, though I wasn't

I'm not from the US but I started working part-time as a developer at 16, and full-time at 17. This was 10+ years ago, but I know more teenagers now doing something similar than there were when I was growing up (for non-typical teenage
