Always interesting to browse these lists. Figured I'd add this week's browser %s from a site I run to the thread for others interested in another source: > Chrome 62.09% > Safari 26.55% > Edge 3.23% > Opera 2.94% >

Important to note that these tokens _can_ be words, but oftentimes a word will be comprised of multiple tokens, so 8192 tokens = 8192 words isn't strictly correct. That said, your point stands. Most short stories are low-to-mid four-di

I wrote the above answer with my brain and fingers without including ChatGPT. I think you'd find that, in a lot of contexts, a lot of humans care more about reading quality content than concerning themselves with who wrote that content

It seems like if the contextual analogy here was carried through and ChatGPT were to leave its message as a comment on a Java-security thread, the same approach would apply (a few minutes of research on Google) and the provably-incorrect me

This debate reminds me a lot of early-Quora moderation discussions over anonymous users. People wanted to mass-ban any answers from "anonymous" because they weren't from "real people". I argued that, in a public for

If you think about the space both models are covering from a rate-of-failure perspective, it kind of makes sense that images end up being a bit easier than text: both text- and image-models can output results that look plausible at first gl

According to this Viasat brochure [1], their top global (not regional) plan is $14k/mo with speeds ranging 20-40Mbps, or approx. $466 per 1Mbps. Comparatively, $25k/mo for 350Mbps would average $71 per 1Mbps, or ~6x cheaper for th

The GP comment you were referring to recommended streaming Netflix in 1080p to, assumedly, compare to streaming games in 1080p, too; not to compare 1080p versus 4K. If you can stream Netflix in 1080p, there's not much additional strain

Doing this now... what are you expecting to be obvious from this experiment? Obviously the video game has some upstream requirements (just user input), but neither are stuttering or having any issues.

There's been a "Google will shut down Stadia soon" news story almost every single month for the last 3 years. This time, it's actually sourced from Google though.

Within the context of Stadia here, you could purchase a game at cost and play it forever (or, until the service shut down, heh) without paying any monthly subscription fee, which does change the math somewhat.

Yeah, I mostly just bought games outright on Stadia rather than subscribing for the Netflix-y pool of games everyone said they wanted, which worked out really well for me in the end: I played for years and hundreds of hours and it was basic

Not quite hardware/software sales, but a lot of people pegged Stadia somewhere between 2-3 million users around the beginning of the year. It's also unclear how many of those break down into recurring Pro subscribers versus bought

Stadia ran (runs) well at 50mbps, and their competitors don't require much more (~100mbps for comparable results afaict), and 2x that minimum often results in a flawless experience if you have the bandwidth/latency to back it up (

This is mostly unfortunate just because of how far ahead Stadia's tech is in front of its competitors. I hope Luna, GFN, and/or xCloud improve a bit more by the time January rolls around, but also hope maybe an exodus of users fro
