Not my experience. I think you are either just parroting what you read online, live in the countryside, or have not been to Japan for 10+ years. I live in Tokyo and none of what you say is true here. I pay all my rent online, and have for 5

I successfully quit Twitter. I used to be on it ~2 hours a day, now I haven't opened in for almost a year. Unfortunately that habit has been replaced by others and I still have FOMO from not being on Twitter when I see colleagues shari

I don't understand where the bank analogies always come from. Crypto is not a bank. Holding crypto is like holding cash. If you put it under your bed and it's stolen, do you go to the government and complain about reverting the tr

That's only true in good economic times and non-war periods and places. What you're saying is true in America right now, but not in many other countries [0], and it's also not true across time. Even in America, eventually a t

I guess most reasonable answer is that you should include anything that would transfer a significant amount of money to the IRS. Starbucks points and FFXIV gold may be theoretically included, but the liquidity for those is so small that the

I think the op may be asking the more general question of why it is defined like this. What makes a "digital representations of value that are recorded on a cryptographically secured distributed ledger" so fundamentally differen

That argument doesn't make much sense. You don't control your bank balance, which are just IOUs, either. It's just an entry in some centralized company's database.

I use Hugo [0] and host on Netlify, but anywhere works. Couldn't be happier. I used Wordpress and Jekyll previously, but Hugo has been a good upgrade. The problem with Wordpress is that it's difficult to export content if you ever

Interesting, I didn't realize this is the case. Unfortunately it looks like there won't ever be MacOS support, which makes this unusable for me. I think my point about broader applicability still stands though. Compare the guix [0

I agree with you that the Nix language is a problem, and most likely a mistake in hindsight. Even for someone with lots of functional programming experience it's ugly with bad usability. I'm not familiar with Guix, but I am with N

I generally agree with you, but it depends on how obvious the semantics of the code are. In your example, noNameDateFiltered is most likely superfluous. If the filter function is short it's self-descriptive what it does. Adding long

The problem with the Data Scientist market is that Data Scientist is a fuzzy definition. It's pretty clear what skillset makes a good software engineer, but nearly anyone can call themselves a Data Scientist, even if they just clicking

I'm pretty shocked by this. That someone who was involved in the fraud just as much as SBF can away with this simply by cooperating is appalling. What's the point of villainizing and heroifying the most public figures? Is that jus

Yes, just like the FTX website is on the internet. So, do you blame the HTTP protocol for every online scam? Anyone can put scam token on Ethereum, just like anyone can publish a website. It has no relevance to Ethereum whatsoever. What the

What you want is full transparency and incentive alignment. A government, or rather the people running the government, fundamentally don't benefit from these things because they use monetary policy to benefit themselves and the elite t

The problem is the nondisclosure. When you're selling something (do this program to get a body like mine) and don't disclose that you got there by taking steroids, that's a scam. The influence may still be positive, but you&#

That's a great summary, but it's important to understand that much more goes into training these models. The architecture is not any kind of secret sauce, or special in any way. It's just a typical Transformer. I call this &q

I have no doubt that exercise is good for you, but I'm extremely skeptical about these kind of books. I haven't read this one specifically but from your description it fits this archetype of pop-science books that cite studies as

But these are "old" models from 5+ years ago. Implementing them is not going to help you get up to speed with more recent AI research. From the OPs post, it seems like he already knows these basics.

I agree. What I meant to say is not that there won't be any use cases, but rather that they won't be as obviously transformative as people expect them to be. We won't have new kinds of products that are uniquely enabled by Ch

I'll make an anti-prediction instead. People will fail to find decent use cases for ChatGPT/etc. We'll get used to the fact that AI models can generate language that looks indistinguishable from humans on the surface, but the

Why are these low quality resources being upvoted? Not only is there basically no content here, but some of it requires signup. You get more than this from reading a single page of PyTorch documentation. The web is flooded with Deep Learnin
