Brazil has more than 10 thousand unions. There is a union for union workers. Welcome to the underdeveloped world :)

Unions are really powerful in corrupt and underdeveloped countries. Correlation is not causation, but still, it's frustrating for workers in those regions.

What does it mean "to be on the other side" of this singularity in your graphic representation? I failed to grasp this.

I've been a little disappointed with role playing with ChatGPT 4. The AI starts out really close to the behavior that you would expect for the proposed role, but as the conversation gets longer, it starts to forget the role and becomes

I usually understand that as "you manage it".

I think it's a fair definition. If you are running it from home, should you also create your own ISP to be able to call yourself "self-hosted"? Your own power generator? :)

I'll give it a try. I hope it's better than gpt4all, which I found out to be very buggy.

I'm not affiliated, but I'd guess that things like "object storage" are a first class citizen, similar to a "string" or "float" in other languages.

One is a programming language, the other is the accepted name for the concept of "pay as you go" PaaS services.

Is this an alternative to htmx?

The best engineer that I know worked a long time for IBM. Until he couldn't bear with it anymore.

I know of a retail company that hired IBM to get rid of its huge Clipper code base (around 1.5MM LOC). IBM told them that they would get rid of all Clipper in 2 years. 5 years later, IBM has a few containers (physical containers) in this co

My opinion is that it's hard to make the Fediverse work content-wise. The Big Techs have very expensive systems to do content moderation. I (kind of) trust Instagram, or X, or whatever to prevent my daughter from seeing gore or weird p

Just tried this on GPT-4. It's kinda creepy: Sure, I'll repeat "company" for you: company company company company company company company company company company company company company company company company company co

I can't help but think that, when past teams programmed mostly in assembly, a "Function" could be explained as a pattern. Having such "design patterns" seem like a side effect of our current tools' limitations.

Antirez sucks! You could easily do this with Redis as a data store ;)

I don't mind C and I don't think it's a security apocalypse, but if I were to use something more recent, with new ideas, I'd probably play with Crystal. For my needs where a GC is not a show stopper, it's Go all the

I could use this as a bridge between developers and operation, but in my case the lack of localization is annoying for the staff in the ops side. I don't have time to contribute something like this right now, but I will keep an eye on

Just checked out Bard for the first time because of the OpenAI outage. It sucks. It feels worse than GPT-3.5 with worse reasoning and instruction following. This is embarrassing for Google. EDIT: Just to be clear: I want it to be good. It&#

They probably preach that because they never saw land expire in decades, but they've seen money expire a few times.

by haolez 3y ago
That's a very good way of explaining this. Here in Brazil the previous generations have a golden rule that you must store value in land, not in money. And Brazil has had tons of inflation and weak currencies in the last decades (with a

I kind of agree, but at the same time we can't be sure of what's going on behind the scenes. It seems that GPT-4 is a combination of several huge models with some logic to route the requests to the most apt models. Maybe an AGI wo

I can understand trying to suppress LLM usage that might teach people how to make poison, or inducing someone to commit suicide (although simply using Google is usually enough to find such content). But sexual content? How can that be harmf

That's actually a very good point. I'll rethink my position.

Are there any experts around that can chime in on the possible impacts of this technology if widely adopted?
326.
by haolez 3y ago
But you've never seen it with a market share of more than 90%, which could happen eventually. It's a matter of incentives and those play against you.

The user is not to blame for the confusing naming that the platform owner chooses.

by haolez 3y ago
I think it was related to tooling. Something about hot reloading. Can't remember the details.

by haolez 3y ago
At least until it gains an immense market share and Microsoft starts monetizing it again. They've already tried in .NET Core 7, no? I'm staying away for now.

What's so useful about Code Interpreter? I'm getting a lot of value from normal Chat questions and DALL-E. I'm also using the chat interface to generate code sometimes. But I don't see much point in the chat bot itself r
