Yup, variety is a big part of it. You don't just want a large language model that can produce meticulous text, you also need to be able to handle user input, which will frequently include faulty input itself. Otherwise you end up with

I mean, Wikipedia is certainly better, but Reddit covers some niches of language that Wikipedia will never cover. Wikipedia, Reddit, and Twitter are the three predominant sources of data for large language models, and Twitter has been such

Welcome to do all the moderating yourself Huffman. It's the task that all other social networks are constantly struggling with and coming up against laws and regulations, while Reddit had it somewhat figured out, or at least had some

My prediction is that pre-2022 data in machine learning will be like pre-WW2 steel in the medical industry (no radiation contamination from nuclear tests, cannot be replicated). An irreplaceable resource with a limited supply. As much as I

Even just a little bit of giving concessions to legacy customers would have been fine. It's not like you need to completely give up on your new pricing model just because your have existing customers. It's crab.

Also important to note that this is an indicator that Reddit has lost all trust from (this part of) the community. Even if that is a plausible explanations, many will not give Reddit's current management the benefit of doubt. I simply

Wow, they really did their research to come up with the worst possible responsive. First, declaring in response that they don't care and won't budge, then when that inevitably resulted in an extension of the blackout, threatening

I guess the only surprise here is that they're selling it.

You might be right that their partial victory may get them nowhere. But the more salient issue in my opinion is that they are unionized and 'extorted' some concessions from their employer that the employer cannot make good on, bec

Reddit already gave their strategy away earlier today when Hoffman wrote: > We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have o

Interesting site, have you considered adding carved rocks or maybe even clay sculptures? And what would be your policy on NSFW content like this: https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/art/news/af...

Twitter seems to be on a poor trajectory. What Reddit is up to is bad enough, but if the leadership was looking at Twitter and thinking "yeah, let's do that", that would be even sadder.

Interesting. Alberta had plenty of wildfires even before the 'regular' wildfire season even began. Before any other place in NA. Now they are starting to have crop failures and are en route to 'zero production': https:&

Well, we don't know the circumstances of your life, where you live, what resources you have. That all determines what possibilities exist for you to engage yourself.

I feel like I'm missing something. Why would you ever respond to that listing? No meaningful description of the company, no outstanding benefits, just the promise of being overworked?

I tend to ignore manuals, but two exceptions stand out to me. The Civilization series always continued making decent in-game manuals, or maybe 'wikis' is the more appropriate term. And while I would say that the manual for bash an

Didn't expect for shiny-server to be mentioned so prominently. I might actually give Debian a shot for my personal machine. The five years of updatea sounds great, the LTS option is the main reason why I went with Ubuntu so far.

So the idea is that in case leadership wants to 'carve out a kingdom' that is not in line with community wishes, the community could take the data dump and create a clone of sorts? Then now the last snapshot for doing so would be

Thinking about buying one. Would I be wrong in assuming it was just a matter of the order: (really) heat the pan, add the oil, and then whatever you need to cook?

What's so sanctimonious about writing code? If I vaguely know what I want to do in bash, but I don't know everything off the top of my head, I could search stackoverflow, or I could just type it into ChatGPT, apply some judgement,

It's an editorial from one of their technology editors. I have read a ton of useful editorials from Nature throughout my academic career -- not sure if it's beyond their scope, but I would be sad to see it go.
