I don't know about GPT 4, but I did not find GPT 3.5 great for summarizing long documents. I tried it on two long that I knew the content on, and it did not pick up the main themes well. Not even well enough that it would be believable

My impression is, Sundar has perfected it? I remember the post the other day that listed all the products that were killed over the years, that has been going on for a while. It would be interesting to see products launched vs. products kil

He has been CEO since 2015. Would it be a stretch to blame him for the current company culture of nurturing new products left and right just to kill them off after 3-5 years?

Interesting, I wonder if something like that is happening to me. The TNR install seems to have worked, but some of the Sans fonts looks wonky, not sure if its Arial or something else. From what I gather, Inkscape takes the name of the font

I am quite a fan of Andrew Ng's courses on machine learning. Well made, improved over time as he got more experienced, and he is just a likable guy frankly.

VW is investing ~$200B in EV manufacturing. Yes, VW is about twice as big, but still, that puts the numbers into perspective.

Yeah, I should have looked at those. Really weird, paint by numbers questions that are just about leaning into the professor's beliefs.

I have done a lot of scraping in the past. Cookies are a pain, this is a really elegant solution. Of course the biggest problem is that everything interesting is hidden away behind JavaScript these days and then you have to resort to Seleni
