I love the idea of robot helpers but I don't love the idea of putting cameras all over my house and having ad companies surveil my intimate space. I do not think people are even recognizing the security ramifications of these devices.

I don't think anyone is using "autocomplete" in the way your phone does it. But it is shorthand for a much more sophisticated version that is built in similar ideas. And autoregressive models certainly have that in their core

On top of that, the only time they would get to think, about anything, is when prompted. That is, if we're following the same logic.

I think people have more passion to argue than they have passion to learn. Probably doesn't help that SV culture tells people to hustle so hard that they don't have time to think. Gotta go fast?

FYI, math is a language. Which is actually an important part of the Navier-Stokes conversation. Solving hard problems expands the vocabulary. The problems are hard, illustrating a region we know where the language is insufficient. So the po

There's nothing wrong with that. Everyone has their own vimrc, you do you. But most people don't know about <C-[>, which works across your terminal, It isn't just a vim thing.

He said the same about vim, but did everyone forget about netrw? Here, go into vim and type `:Ex`. You can also have mouse support. (Netrw can also do trees if you don't like the format, go look at `g:netrw_liststyle`) My friend on eMa

I think the reason people are suspicious is that OAI has shown itself to act a bit irresponsibly, especially recently. As two examples, of course it was artifactory, why wasn't that watched more closely, especially after the first inst
