That's a super interesting hypothesis. From an information theory perspective, rarer tokens are more informative. Maybe this results in the caps lock tokens being weighted higher by the attention mechanism.

I don't think an LLM can fear or come to harm, I just don't see any evidence of that, but I did have a similar thought once. I was having a very hard time getting it to be terse. I included the phrase, "write like every word

Introducing auto save into the discussion may have been confusing, you're both right that that wouldn't generally cause jank, debouncing an auto save is more about not using resources unnecessarily and may help provide a better ed

They describe that approach in another comment [1], so I take it to be a descriptive statement about low end keyboards. Perhaps the engineers designing these keyboards view 30ms as an acceptable latency to prevent spurious key presses. [1]

What value would you recommend?

No, you should definitely exercise good judgement in delivering a good UI to the user that doesn't lock up if they happen to type very quickly. But it is context dependent, and sometimes you will want to show them results for "a&

Consider some people (the type to enable prefers-reduced-motion) find it very difficult to use a UI that is updating too frequently.

"Instant," in the context of a user interface, is not zero seconds. It's more like 50ms to 1000ms (depending on the type of information being processed). If you want your user interface to feel snappy and responsive - then yo

Perhaps the people at MDN are 10x typists, with competition-grade gaming keyboards.

No one wants to see results for the letter "a", no one wants their database processing that search, and updating the UI while you're typing can be really distracting.

It's the term used in frontend dev. It is actually a little worse than you're imagining, because we're not sampling, we're receiving callbacks (so more analogous to interrupts than sampling in a loop). Eg the oninput cal

Can you point to a film that has used this technology? Can you point to anything that substantiates those numbers? Genuinely asking, my mind is open to the possibility but I don't want to take it on faith. (I watched that Kalshi ad to

Poking around, I've not been able to find anyone else claiming higher than 10%? Is this 50% from your benchmarks, or is there a link I can see?

Who is pro-GIL...? The point is that, unlike in the Bitcoin block size debacle, you don't have people who are pulling in different directions because it directly impacts their bottom line if Python does X or Y. There's no one who

I think the Bitcoin part is simple - it doesn't have the perverse incentives of an investment vehicle. Everyone's financial stake is indirect and diffuse, it's not likely that any given PEP is directly connected to a develope

I doubt their executives agree that one another are not a competitive threat. They wouldn't have tried to merge if they weren't playing ball in the same court.

It's ridiculous to suggest corporations will treat their customers better if they have competition? That if their customers have somewhere else to go they have more negotiating power? Adobe and Figma are competitors, right now, regar

No, that's just wrong, if you let Adobe buy up all the design tools then you limit designer's choice to just Adobe. Will they come out with a competing product? Maybe. That's their business. But the potential is there, and Ad

It's possible life existed in the Hadean epoch before the Late Heavy Bombardment, but for the most part there are no rocks from the Hadean epoch so it's difficult to say whether there was life. Those rocks were swept into the mant

What are you thoughts on using Redis Streams or using a table instead of LISTEN/NOTIFY (either a table per topic or a table with a compound primary key that includes a topic - possibly a temporary table)?

> My pet theory (that I don't sincerely believe)... To be clear, this combination is a tetradic palete on a color wheel. Color theory and simplified logo trends make this coincidence much more likely than it would initially appear.

Something that has occurred to me is that I have sometimes been that asshole entitled customer, and as I've matured I've learned to remove myself from a situation when I feel the urge to yell at a service worker. It has never been

My hot take is that the Slack logo is an Alphabet-product logo. The colors aren't quite right, but it's red/yellow/green/blue like an Alphabet logo. It would fit right into the lineup. It's particularly similar

Long running transactions interfere with vacuuming and increase contention for locks. Everything depends on your workload but a long running transactions holding an important lock is an easy way to bring down production.
