If you truly believe you have a revolutionary device, you don't need to advertise before its time. You wait in secret, and launch it in a big surprise. I smell bullshit, and some kind of partnership in which OpenAI provides model acces

> Altman argued that future AI competition will be won through devices What this really signals is the intention (which might be sincere or not) of getting some sort of OEM deal with some device manufacturer. And yes, if the path to prof

People still hate being told they're not actually the new Copernicus, no matter how much they think they are.

I love prose.

by gaigalas 11mo ago
Fascinating. I would appreciate a post with examples, not just prose. It helps to put things in a more grounded reality.

I don't need to. Those are well-known estabilished facts. If you need more information, you can search them or ask an LLM. Here you go: https://chatgpt.com/share/69384dce-c688-8000-97f7-23d0628cd5...

If an agent gets things wrong you should stop it and correct it instead. Sometimes the correction will cost more than starting from scratch. In those cases, you start from scratch. You do things manually only when novel work is required (th

People back then were primarily improving engines, not making articles about engines being better than horses. That's why it's different now.

Dude. HTML4 era was full of parser hacks. Increasingly more and more parser hacks. XHTML tried to solve that, and make HTML parsing more acessible to everyone . It's not about rigor, it's about making it simpler. HTML5 goes in th

When you're on the internet for a while, you develop an intuition for the average level of Microsoft hate that is supposed to exist at any given time. It's a rather stable measure. I'm seeing an unusual increase in that, and

I think the author underestimate the forces that introduce coordination overhead. "Good AI developers" are a mystery being (not really, but for corporate they are). Right now, companies are trying to measure them to understand wha

Can I offer some valid criticism? The original Space Jam website is fluid (it's 90s lingo for responsive). It is also a still relevant website because it is a living fossil of that era's way of doing webdesign. Asking to recreate

Only the digital ones? oof, why so specific? I would have accepted `22/7`.

The outcome does not justify @johnfn's redemption celebration. That's why I decided to give him a heads up. Aside from that, I think it's a joke. Like the value of pi example I gave in the other comment. If it's not, it

It's a joke, right? A joke similar to this one: --- > Make me a python script that calculates the value of PI ```python print("3.1415") ``` "I think it's passable!" <--- The joke --- If it's not a jo

Dude, the recreation is a joke (hopefully an intentional one). It uses the screenshot instead of the assets. Go ahead, turn on the Web Inspector, and remove the body background: https://tilework-tech.github.io/space-jam&#x2F

This is the first thing: https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf It has nothing about the collapse of the banking system.

I don't think this approach can work. Anyway, I've written a library in the past (way way before LLMs) that is very similar. It validates stuff and outputs translatable text saying what went wrong. Someone ported the whole thing (

It originally meant nothing. Bitcoin was a proof of concept, with some examples of things it could solve, but no actual ideological arc. Some people saw it as an opportunity to push for an ideological agenda because you can convince a lot o

Let's go the other route. What would change your mind? It's an exercise in feasibility. For example, I don't believe in time travel. If someone made me time travel, and made it undeniable that I was transported back to 1508

Explaning is hard. Examples often work better. You need to be able to show an example where deduplication would be made worse by applying DRY, otherwise it's hard to argue using just vague descriptions. I totally agree with deduplicati

Is there any code (yours, open open source, doesn't matter) that you would recommend as non "huffman compressed"? Give us an example of what you like.

Super excited about this kind of stuff. Sutherland, mother of all demos, Bret Victor, live fish, etc. However, going this route for real likely means multi-decade research and iteration. Demos are quick to make. Generalizing and turning it

It wasn't me that muddled the terminology. I ain't going to fix it. They wanted to make those synonyms, that's what they'll get.
