Abstractions are just technical terms for analogies, and they commonly break down as you go deeper down the stack ;).

Right, but we are talking about data loss, so I think we are all talking about durability.

Surprising, where I am in Canberra, I never see it below 1.99 AUD/litre for the cheapest ethanol heavy stuff, but at my local nearly always see it above $2 AUD. But I don't get fuel that often so maybe I've just missed the dr

Ahh interesting, I thought this was a calculated reliability rate, not an actualized one.

Wow, really? Different here in Australia, petrol is $5.50/gallon ($2.2 per litre converted), batteries I don't know, but EVs are crazy expensive. And housing is absolute madness, Eg Sydney median house price is something like $1.1

Turns out "Cloud" is someone else's computer, with the same possible issues. Saying that, I would be very surprised if the same ever happened on S3. Not saying it won't, but if the specs are to be believe, seems pretty r

Rise like rockets, fall like feathers as they say. Out of interest, in what markets have you seen prices come down?

How is that possible when they don't even disclose pricing on their main page? I'm not disbelieving you, I'm just struggling to understand.

I can't see any citation to accuracy comparisons, or maybe I just missed them? Given the amount of data, and complexity of the domain, it would be good to see a much more detailed breakdown of their performance vs other models. My expe

I think the parent is more talking about the other common situation where organizations start focusing on maximizing profits, rather than just working towards a basic profitability. Eg, Google Maps API pricing comes to mind. Yes, OpenAI mig

"What looks like squeezing value out of OpenAI today might look a lot like technical debt and frustrating lock-in a year from now." Just wanted to highlight this as such a great, concise way to look at the Buy vs Build with pretty

Australia broadband is not great, but a few years ago I got fibre installed (at my own expense), and since have benefitted from actual competition among ISPs. The little ISP I’m with bills a daily rate which you can change at any point with

From my understanding, embedding models are just one layer of a modern LLM that do the similarity part as described in the post. The translation of representing content as a part of a common vocabulary in a vector. My understanding is that

Absolutely, same here in Australia. Using markets as a mechanism for price discovery (what they are good at) for a necessity has gone predictably badly. Yes, people will put themselves in huge amounts of debt for a secure living situation,

I can't seem to find what the original prompt was in the article? I'd hate injected ads, but if the prompt was literally "What are the best gaming laptops of 2023, how much do they cost and where do I buy them?" I don&#x

I use GPT4 like I would ask a question on StackOverflow. While my prompts are relatively long compared to a web search, I’ve found the results really good. I usually state the problem, provide code context, motivations, and end with restati

Completely agree, discovered I didn't own the game on Steam (not my type of game), but just bought it anyway. Win-win move.

Can anyone more familiar with the subject let us know around what year of manufacturing in cars did this trend start? I don't particularly want to keep driving a petrol car, but seriously don't want this crap either.. I might just

From what I can tell, their 'local' mode still can't use your own LLM model, just host it yourself, and still charged per request despite using my own hardware to run? Very confusing.

Hi author here. If you are using GitHub, I can't see why you would not want to use Actions, in which can they are all "hand rolled", you could abstract a lot within a custom action, but that is just another black box (which w

I believe that is more related to how the default Huggingface inference UI is prompting. Running locally with the correct prompt template it gives default completes, eg ``` def square(x): return x*x ```

On the exact same journey as well. Ceramic, glass and cast iron, but still avoiding non-stick coating. My partner has IBD, and various gastro issues. Probably not related, but doing what we can to avoid anything that can make things worse.
