The history of the Internet shows you really shouldn't trust that. If I had a Substack list I cared about, I'd regularly export the emails.

This varies a lot by people - some people's conscious thought is in images, some in language, some in unsymbolised concepts. Hurlburt's "Descriptive Experience Sampling" is a good source on this - see for example table 2

The more automated ones will separately write tests and code, and if the code doesn't compile or pass the test, give itself the error messages and update its code. Code Interpreter does this a bit in Chat-GPT Plus with some success. I

Yes, but the paid-for Plus version only. Ignore the free version, pretend it doesn't exist.

Not sure, but I remember clearly this Simon Wardley (of Wardley mapping) blogpost from 2016, which thinks Amazon's Lumberyard will kill Unity and Unreal (amongst others) by doing their normal Amazon play for game development. https:&#

The fix is pretty obvious - migration assistant should copy granted app permissions across.

It's also not for sale - OpenAI is still owned by its non profit, and Microsoft only has effectively debt equity (capped profit).

To add, it is pretty poor there is no FAQ linked to from that post to answer basic non-technical questions as to how this is intended to be used. I assume as a technical person, the answer is I should have a backup device with a friend an

As a user I still don't understand this. What happens if there's a house fire or something and all my devices where I'm logged in with Google break? How do I log into my account again?

It's hard! There are some professional artists who are aphantasic, e.g. this YouTube video talks about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewsGmhAjjjI IIRC, the artist does lots of sketches, and looks at them to see w

Adobe's generative AI features all use appropriately licensed training data.

Yeah - I think books from non-Amazon publishers is probably the filter to use

We understand the training algorithm, but not the network that was trained. There’s the whole interpretability sub-discipline which has limited but interesting results. Those just indicate even more that we really have no idea how something

I also really like that I’m learning tooling that lets me easily switch model provider later.

Part of the problem is that GPT-4 inference is too expensive to roll out at scale with current GPU availability and cost, so even basic features aren't generally available (e.g. your word processor writing for you) or if they are the m

Norway is only 5 million people - if every country in the world did it the fine would be more like $30 billion per annum, which is about a quarter of Facebook's revenue. Still, agreed would be better if it was a more punitive fine!

Flutter has a wild accessibility system that also exports DOM elements just for the aria labels. This all breaks the browser’s in page search function though! Long standing bug with no fix yet.

I think over the years it's healthy to switch back and forth between management and IC, and sometimes inbetween as a tech-lead manager. Being recently hands on with the technology helps coach and assess reports and means you know the r
