It really seems like a trade off. Animals seem “happy” and “free” out in nature, but are they? They have to be on guard every single second because something might eat them. If they get injured, that is an absolute death sentence. There is

This quote seems like bad advice - feels like it’s telling us to focus on not looking stupid in front of other people (rather than risk asking a dumb question) and can lead to perfectionistic overanalyzing self doubt.

Has anyone actually used this? I tried using a few weeks ago and it just… ostensibly didn’t do anything I think I clicked “share to shareGPT” and nothing happened. I tried clicking around to see where to go, but I couldn’t find anything, so

I still think I will read articles for the opinion of the writer, the vibe of the site, and the experience of reading an article. I don’t see chatGPT replacing this for me

One thing I don’t get… I read blogs and articles for the experience I feel when I read them. There’s a look and feel to these sites. Conversing with chatGPT is just giving me information and facts. I don’t see it replacing the experience of

I find communities on discord and slack are good for this. I’m in a slack group where we have threads that last days. Occasionally I think of a related thing to a thread and post a new message there

Determinants always fascinated me, partly (completely?) because of the cool sounding name. I always wanted to get intuition for them because their formula is so simple, which has always been deeply unsatisfying to me to just take on its fac

It's hard to separate actual progress from placebo so hence hard to give a good time estimate, but I'd say 3 months in I was at my peak (I've fallen off since then and ultimately "failed" PT in terms of it helping t

I did this same exact thing back in 2010. I used khan academy for it. Started with positive and negative numbers, arithmetic, through trig and algebra. I like khan academy back in 2010 because all the videos were in one place and you could

In my experience, I’ve received answers to these questions working with a physical therapist. I’ve sustained several injuries partly due to muscle imbalance (that led to poor walking mechanics due to glute imbalance). So we try to correct t

When I take out the trash, I put on a pair of rollerblades and skate it over (I live in an apartment complex and it’s across a parking lot) It seriously feels like a real life cheat code when I’m doing this

While I enjoy the overall message, I don’t love the sense of finality in the author’s tone. Makes it sound like it’s an all or nothing thing, where you either identify or you don’t. In reality, it’s a spectrum that we’re always moving back

Specifically with cashiers at checkout, I find the question “has it been busy today?” almost always generates an enthusiastic response (“yeah, super busy!” or “no, not really!”)

My understanding is the transformer layer in the LLM is basically doing something akin to message passing, it’s like a mini computer. In predicting the next word, it has to understand a lot about a lot of different kinds of topics My unders
