This is the exact same comment as in the previous thread from days ago. This is some kind of automated collection activity.

There is a real concern rapidly developing for artists just like there is for all types of human labor. That is valid. But the idea that AI necessarily reduces the level of art produced by artists seems to be a false conclusion. AI art DOES

If you want to look at something specific like software engineering, it is not even a little bit similar to being an athlete or musician. Athletes and musicians are performers. They are repeating a set sequence of movements over and over. T

Could it be that a larger more representative portion of the general population has gone online since 2000? Maybe a little earlier on in the history of the internet, it was a somewhat more individualistic and dare I suggest more educated an

I believe that a significant amount of what happens is based on herd movement. Which is similar to the concept of social trend, but I think that makes it sound more rational than it is. People seem to be largely motivated by a subconscious

Sometimes I think some companies are playing a different game. Where profit was never really a concern. The goal is just to keep showing growth and raising. You just have to cash out before the music stops or The Singularity happens. One as

I love your service, but this erroneous take makes me think that even if I was looking to spend up to $500 with a "real" business, you don't have me in mind. There should obviously be multiple types of caps. AWS and others ha

I think that this is kind of an obvious "optimization" for making application generation much more reliable. Just because the models can generate code for one of 1000 different platforms, doesn't mean that you need all of the

Hm. I wonder how well this works versus a large LLM. Seems like something a very strong LLM should be able to handle well with the right prompting. If you can handle it with just phrases that would save a lot of time and money though.

For the problems given in the article, it will 100% work. It's very easy for Claude 3.5 or gpt-4o to look at documentation for a couple of API endpoints, compare it to submitted code, and point out invalid endpoints and properties. It

ok.. thanks.. but the reaction in this thread seems to slightly contradict that? I didn't see anyone say "we use pip + venv, it works fine".

If you want to avoid all driver issues you should probably be asking about a hardware/OS combo, not just one or the other. But over the last few years I haven't had significant problems.

Take a look at aider-chat or zed. zed just released new AI features. Had a blog post about it yesterday I think. Also you can look into cursor. There are actually quite a few tools. I have my own agent framework in progress which has many p

"Delivered in phases until end of Q1 2025" -- sounds like it could be reasonable, or might actually be some kind of waterfall disaster. My advice is that you do your best to push for actual users having their hands on the software

I'm going to answer more from an applied perspective than 'real' ML. Hacker News is a good source for news. As far as learning, you have to build something. I suggest you just start with example code from the OpenAI or Anthro

I also use vim (or neovim). But that doesn't mean that I believe in modes or that neovim/vim is a good editor. I think there is some kind of psychological thing driving this. Like subconsciously, I came to the conclusion many year

Fascinating.. you are aware of the context of how WYSIWYG came about? So presumably you don't want to return to that state, where you literally would have no idea what it would look like until several minutes later when it finally came

It's interesting to me how many people can look at the exact same thing and have completely different experiences and takeaways. I suggest that this is largely determined by things like the person's previous experiences, maybe eve

There are many companies that just do whatever they can get away with and because of their market position, this is a lot. Maybe someday there will be a movement to boycott these abusive companies or something. Check out https://
