expectations are interesting things... i was impressed with chatgpt, though not blown away as it's simply the latest in a chain of increasingly impressive research demos. substantially though my experience was the same as yours, though

i mean, the option is there depending on what your requirements are. i recently went from a 980ti to a 3070, doubling performance while decreasing TDP... as someone who has the card for casual use (only really make use of it a few times a m

just trying to make the comparison more precise: using copilot is like subcontracting to a company who you know has no institutional qualms about their employees liberally copy/pasting from a known corpus of github repos. you know thes

happy to answer any questions, though not necessarily imminently as i'm travelling at the moment. though i haven't been working on fructure lately, i'm very much working on ideas in the same space. i'm currently at the u

yes, for example it would take about 55 times more energy to get something to the sun than it would to get it to mars

clojure macros are quite retro and minimalistic relative to racket's. this is partly an intentional decision; clojure and racket are basically opposite extremes of lisps when it comes to how big a role macro authorship is supposed to p

yes, i only visit reddit directly a 1-2 times a day now as opposed to 100+ from maybe 2010-2017, but i still often append 'reddit' to certain searches with great effect.
