The advantage of frameworks isn't that they make it easier to write the actual agent, it's tooling + observability + ... Even Langchain, for all the (deserved) criticism it gets made this very clear very early: It might be easy&#x

Well similar to how turing machines are a sufficient theoretical model to make all kinds of arguments about runtime complexity of classical computers without relying on their actual physical implementation, we have theoretical models for th

In german, there is an idiomatic way of saying "I don't understand" (especially after attempting to do so multiple times) that literally translates to "Standing on the hose/tube", which is extra fitting here co

Of course it is beneficial in the long run, but beginners are still prone to overtraining and getting injured when they go from sitting a desk for 14 hours a day to running 3 times a week

I'm not performing any sort of moral judgement here, I'm using 'underpriced' to describe a good that is sold below its equilibrium pricetag. Companies are free to do what they like, but lower prices will always lead to

> It sold out in less than an hour. Scalpers are at it again. "Underpriced good at it again" would be more accurate.

I kind of agree with 1, but not really with 2 and 3. It's easy to come up with trivial examples where it is both unreasonable and not feasible to follow those two, both for AI and non-AI scenarios.

That depends on your use of "attribute". We shouldn't give them (positive) credit (use 1), but we can recognize them as the cause (use 2)

i think eml is fine, names should be connected to the thing they represent so 'exponential minus log' makes sense to me
74.
by fxwin 6mo ago
eh, i didnt find that paragraph very helpful. it just restates what it means do decompose an expression into another one only relying on eml, and vaguely gestures at what this could mean, i was hoping for something more specific.

I'm very skeptical of the advantage they're claiming here. The whitepaper [0] only compares these to full precision models, when the more interesting (and probably more meaningful) comparison would be with other quantized models w

We could do that! I'm just trying to say that given categories based on (biological) sex, we should find some criterion based on biological sex to sort people into said categories, which the OC decision seems to do (at least better tha

This looks pretty cool! However I feel that if the README starts with "Drop-in replacement for X", it should also start with "Why use this over X". I do like the idea of saving prompts for projects like these (Which is a

I thought that line was kind of funny: When a CI run fails, you don't rerun it and wait for the result, you rerun it and check why the original run failed in the meantime. Is it flaky? Is it a pipeline issue? Connectivity issue? Did so

this reads kind of... bitter? The theme of the hackathon was AI (as noted by the author further down), so I'm not sure why he seems surprised/upset that 'All winners had "AI" as a significant part of their solution.
