Wait. If ChatGPT ingested all of Reddit, shouldn't it be funnier?

The funny thing is that breaking up these giants would create more corporations, hence more highly-compensated execs, and also more value for the equity investors (this is less intuitive, but I think that's what typically happens).

> Spez assumes he has more power than Reddit users. He is likely right. There is a chance the protest wins. The interesting twist here is the moderators, which currently have unusual power. The sad part is that this power might go away

> The only interesting thing here is how this rule was simply not being enforced by anyone. Turns out that not even the notary, whose job is to check these things when a property changes hands, does it. I am in a local Facebook group and

Here it is, from a French article: > Les loueurs de meublés touristiques classés (de 1 à 5 étoiles), comme Airbnb, bénéficient aujourd’hui d’un abattement forfaitaire de 71 % jusqu’à 176 200 euros de recettes, contre 50 % pour les meublé

> It might be useful to "all be in the room" when brainstorming. Once the coding starts, this is just a set of distractions I don't need. This is not the dichotomy you make it look. There are lots of other tasks to do, and

Always-on air purifier + opening windows a couple of times a day is cheap and effective.

How difficult are these drugs to make? There is so much talk about the high retail costs, but I’m not seeing talks about the manufacturing costs, which should give some idea about how much they will cost to buy a few years from now.

It should actually be cheaper to run. Much cheaper, since the site operator acts as a restrict on URLs.

Indeed this very article doesn't come up in searches like [ddg site:natehoffelder.com] or [noindex site:natehoffelder.com]. And the article has been up since at least May 30. So yeah, looks like an outage at Google on the crawling side

I have the same question about Google's TPUs (ie, why is Google not selling them, as opposed to just access to them).

If you're wondering like I did how to do this easily on a Mac: you can set a hot corner to 'Disable Screen Saver'.

Yes, I would say code is usually denser than English. But sometimes it's not. This unevenness is I think part of the problem. You breeze through some parts, and stop and think through some others. It's unnatural.

> I enjoy writing my own code more than I enjoy reading other people's code which is probably not right. Right or wrong, I think this is true for most programmers. Would be interesting to understand why this is so. Probably related

It's been a while since they removed it. It's probably because playing rarely-played videos costs more in bandwidth. You can still find them, of course, but it's more work.

None of the apps mentioned sound appealing to me. What I would like is a map with points of interest around me. Even small things would entice me to check it out -- street art, weird tree, nicely decorated house etc. Seems hard to make with

This kind of demand has to spur competitors into action. I know it will take many quarters, but I assume AMD/Intel/others will catch up? So why do investors believe the current growth will continue many years, to justify this valu

I still have doubts. Google uses anchors heavily in search, so it's hard to prove if a result is due to matches in captions or in a website linking to the video. Would be good to find proof one way or another.

On web search, you can append &lr=lang_it to the URL. Maybe make it into a Chrome extension.

Beyond conspiracy theories it's interesting to speculate why Google is not providing native search-in-subtitles and search-in-comments. The easiest explanation is that they don't trust the quality. They probably tried it and reach

I would think you want basements (and ventilate them), since otherwise the radon comes directly into the living space.

They pay dearly for this though -- 7.5% of the price of the house goes to the notary/state. In the US it can be as high, but it's usually not, since most fees are fixed amounts.

I've been trying to cut down on salt and I realized how many recipes are handwaving when it come to the amount of salt. Yes, experience helps, but it can also cause you do add way more than needed, if that's what you've alway

I wonder if they omitted the explanation -- ie, how exactly it violates GDPR -- since it might get others in trouble (notably ChatGPT).

The new model used by Bard might be competitive with GPT-4 according to Google's tests: https://ai.google/static/documents/palm2techreport.pdf (search for GPT-4).
