I don't get it. I know the Johnathan Swift reference, and the many parodies of parodies based on it. But I don't get why the author is being so sarcastic about things. Was compression or optimization "overdone" in 1996?

My mind was blown a night or two ago when Groq had end-to-end answers in ~0.25s. All my GPT-4 developer friends minds were blown too. Then we got sad the next day, when it became of crapshoot of 10-20s end-to-end latency, due to the hug of

I guess the younger generation grew up with unmoddable consoles, so the concept is less known nowadays. The older audience immediately knows that it's for. You can run free homebrew apps, games, and if you really wanted, with a little

This was a low quality clickbait fluff piece. The article did not match the headline at all. It gives the authors vague musings that some online retailers bake the shipping cost into the prices and offer free shipping, as has been the case

Ironically I already clicked my "Generate page summary" button, and GPT-4 was dutifully token-spewing in my sidebar, before I even got to "You could copy and paste this article into ChatGPT". Touché my friend.

I think you're overblowing the difficulty of creating filters. It's one of those tasks that pays power-law dividends forever. Sure, I initially sat there for 3 hours making the filter list, and every week or two I have to spend 37

I could see the phenomena as a spiral. Each spin of that configuration complexity clock begins the next higher-level layer of abstraction. It begins with the intention of a safe sandbox layer of easy to make changes. Eventually, those users

People often get upset with Wikipedia along these lines, but familiarize yourself with the official rules for inclusion and goals of Wikipedia - they've stayed nearly the same for decades. It's not intended to be the internet arch

Exactly. It is arguing an opinion (a piece of software shouldn't try to do everything), and is paraphrased from small list of sources that all paraphrase a single source https://thedailywtf.com/articles/The_Inner-P

It's not a word, it's a proper noun. It's like "Panda Banker". Cybercrime groups often don't choose the name, so security researchers coin one to talk about them in articles. Here's an explainer I found &q

I feel the opposite. I've been overwhelmed with a sense of my mortality, that I need to care for my body better, in order to live as long as possible into this age. I feel like I won the lottery of birth date to be able to see this. I

It's possible that through sheer volume of training, the neural network essentially has a 3D engine going on, or at least picked up enough of the rules of light and shape and physics to look the same as unreal or unity
