LLMs model their corpus, which for most models tends to be factually correct text (or subjective text with no factuality). Sure, there exist factually incorrect statements in the corpus, but for the vast majority of incorrect statements t

"American food" is in this context is a specific cuisine that includes things like cold cereal, eggs, bacon, sandwiches, hamburgers, chicken wings, apple pie, and much more. Of course americans can still eat other food, but that d

American food is most similar to european food, but is still distinct. "Default" grocery stores in america are focused on american food, not european food. I don't think it's problematic that american food is considered

This topic is mostly new to me so I'm sure this is a dumb question, but what is the benefit here? I would have thought farmers could just manually sample soil moisture levels to get pretty much the same data. The article also mentions

"Weak induction" might be a good way to describe this. "Hasty generalization" if you want a more common logical fallacy to name, though ironically it's a more general fallacy that doesn't perfectly describe the

If you practice too little, you'll screw up wording, miss important points, and sound nervous. If you practice too much, you'll sound robotic like you're reading a script word for word, which doesn't sound good unless yo

So basically the moon's position follows a combination of several sine(ish) waves, and this is (close to) a global maxima of that combination? You and the article both say "high" which I would usually assume to mean "hig

Super basic estimate (I'm not an astronomer, this could be wrong): The core of a star has a radius of 100000 km, and after collapse the radius becomes 10 km. Angular momentum is proportional to fr^2, where f is the rotation frequency.

This is an impressively irrelevant calculation, regardless of whether or not GPT did the arithmetic correctly. If you want to calculate something similar but actually useful, you could get a list of all "cathedrals" dedicated to s

It was closed as a duplicate because you asked 3 separate questions in your post, and the most prominent one (the title) was a clear duplicate of the original. I doubt it would have been closed if you had asked only "how powerful wou

I agree, the argument seems plausible. Just not as definitive as it purports to be.

Perhaps the hobbits enjoy a bit of work. Perhaps a society need not be perfect to count as a utopia. Perhaps I used the wrong word. Hopefully my meaning was clear enough regardless.

This article is interesting, but feels like a bit of a stretch to me, particularly when making assertions as bold as "I suspect the only reason it’s not spelled out is because Tolkien assumed any reader would understand that intuitivel

The design of the Kodiak card (logo? icon? not sure if there's a better word) also seems like it's intentionally mildly reminiscent of the Kodak logo, without being close enough that it's obvious at first glance.

Not familiar with Signoz, but a simple solution should be to check if the total number of requests in the past X duration is <= Y, where X depends on how much traffic you see and Y is some threshold such as 1, 1000, or min(yesterday, las
