I was wondering if this is a tweak of the data sources, or if an easier explanation is that this is a system prompt and perhaps they are not using the prompt that they made open and available online. Changes in the system prompt are much ea

The issue with Metro, imo, is that it was dizzying to use as you were swept away into new interfaces and for many tasks we lost a lot of usability.

Well yeah but then your problem is the fact you have to work at all. I doubt any modern societies have solved the issue of needing people to work.

by jhickok 1y ago
That is my stance as well.

Not OP, but presumably it's because it could cement a permanent divide between classes. We still have quite a bit of upward mobility in the US, but health is a tremendous predictor of future outcomes, so gating that to the rich is dang

I've been through two now, and for one of them nothing much changed, and the other one I was basically lost in a stack of papers for a year. Can I ask what made the experience miserable for you?

Agreed. I think beyond tourist voyeurism, there is something really maturing(?) about being inserted into a completely different culture where people seem to be content. I grew up in rural Wisconsin and even the micro-change of moving away

I think engaging with works of fiction is just as important. Like anything, if a work of fiction engages and challenges you, and you are an intentional reader, it exercises very important muscles.

Yeah I was wondering if those models try to smooth those bumps.

Is that true? I have three kids now, two of them in high school, that are perhaps more AI-savvy than me (both good and bad). I think the article, and my limited professional view, is informed by SoftwareDev, IT infrastructure and Enterprise

I moved to Kagi when Chrome moved to end Manifest V2. I am aware of workarounds, but I have really been moving to de-google my life. Honestly, I have been happy with the results and I think it's good to have various competitors out the

Not sure why this really matters a ton if they announced a 100+ billion pentagon budget increase.

Silly question, but what will it take for the "1.0" release? Seems like a fairly mature product at this point! ETA: found it: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/20451

They lost about 1.5x the value of Volkswagen today (so far). Crazy how (over)valued this company was/is.

Do you have thoughts about Kagi/Orion browser? I've been using it for a bit now and I've been pleased with the ad blocking capabilities and the ability to have ublock origin on my iPhone and iPad. The browser definitely has s

I recently migrated to Orion in order to continue using Ublock Origin, and became a Kagi subscriber as well. Very pleased with the results so far, and I have yet to try the assistant but I'll give that a go today.

Every time Trump mentions how the US “subsidizes” Canada I assume he is talking about the trade deficit? Maybe defense? I have no idea.

Not even in the abstract.

I don’t know who needs to hear this in the executive branch, but markets do not like uncertainty.

by jhickok 2y ago
So this is just going to be ongoing drama the beginning of every month indefinitely? I’m not even sure what we are trying to extract from Canada at this point.

>The opposite of being bored is to be surprised Eh, the opposite of being bored is being excited/engaged, and the opposite of being surprised is being predictable. I don't disagree that predictable is probably what we want for

Do you know how many tokens per second you are getting? I have a similar laptop that I can test on later but if you have that info handy let me know!

I think this is a great suggestion, but as a remote employee with occasional travel it sure feels bad to pay for the storage upgrade for a macbook pro.

Think that was the cause of their stock increase? I feel like investors use opportunities like this to pile money into safer bets rather than just bail on stocks altogether.

Regarding their earnings at the moment, I know it doesn't mean everything, but a ~50 P/E is still fairly high, although not insane. I think Ciscos was over 200 during the dotcom bubble. I think your question about the 5 major cust

I would love to but I it's pretty mothballed at this point. I might publish my notes/method on GH at some point.

Somewhat related, I built a local llm fine tuned on some open published literature on metametaphysics via philpapers.org, and I was surprised at how well it would respond. I think that philosopher's tendency to overexplain every fine p

My experience is similar to yours, and I went to a Macbook Pro during the M1 launch and am pretty happy with the decision, though I would prefer Linux. I take myself to be a tech enthusiast, but I did not have the patience to wade through h
