It's not survivorship bias. Survivorship bias would be if you made any conclusions from the 1000 merged PRs (eg. "90% of all merged PRs did not get reverted"). But simply stating the number of PRs is not that.

The fact that other browsers are huge engineering efforts only makes it more interesting to many. It's arguably one of the hardest things a programmer could build, how could you not wanna build one!

Sure! Although I think we both agree that the way those embeddings are transformed is significantly different ;) (what I meant to say is that it doesn't do embedding math "LIKE" the OP — not that it doesn't do embedding

You are being unnecessarily cynical. These are all subjective. I thought "datum" and "datasets" was quite clever, and while I would've chosen "man" for "king - crown" myself, I actually find &quo

In the panel, you can drag one of the items (eg. Water) onto another one (eg. Earth), and it will create a new word (eg. Plant). It uses AI, so it goes very deep

For fun, I pasted these into ChatGPT o4-mini-high and asked it for an opinion: data + plural = datasets data - plural = datum king - crown = ruler king - princess = man king - queen = prince queen - king

What are you referring to with "until this year"? There was a report last year that Sam Altman would receive equity in the new for-profit, but he denied this, and the recent restructuring post makes no mention of it.

Which ones are misaligned? At least the ones shown to me are perfectly aligned on my computer (both Safari and Chrome on a Mac). Is it maybe caused by an adblocker? (I have YouTube premium, so no ads.) Edit: Actually, the picture in the art

I know we don't comment on formatting here, but WTF is this website?? I can't tell whether this is some early AI experiment or just someone trying to imitate the slang used on 4chan, and also there are ads covering literally two t

This is a silly argument. Breast cancer awareness (rightfully) gets a lot of attention; it's also fine to have an article about prostates every once in a while.

Source? It's much more likely that the LLM generates the latent vector which serves as an input to the diffusion model.

This one seems to make it easier — if the promises here hold true, the multi-modal support probably makes o4-mini-high OpenAI's best model for most tasks unless you have time and money, in which case it's o3-pro.

Of these, some are mostly obsolete: GPT-4 and GPT-4 Turbo are worse than GPT-4o in both speed and capabilities. o1 is worse than o3-mini-high in most aspects. Then, some are not available yet: o3 and o4-mini. GPT-4.1 I haven't played w

The assumption in my comment is that your entire salary is in stock — otherwise, obviously you need to adjust accordingly. But only 1/4th of the stock being exercisable makes sense if you think of vesting like a monthly salary — each m

An understated benefit is that, if you have 4 year vesting, you can choose after year 1 or year 2 whether you want to stay. Meaning, if the company's stock went up 2x after year 1, your salary has effectively doubled for years 2-4. If

Water is not a fire retardant. Water can extinguish fire, but you can't apply water on a forest to prevent a fire from spreading there in the first place. Your last paragraph seems to agree with parent? We should know what's insid

Yes, it's about block scoping — but that doesn't make it less weird . In most languages this doesn't really make sense — a variable is a piece of memory, and a reference refers to it. JavaScript doesn't work like that,

The label "tariffs charged to the US" is just straight-up wrong, either due to incompetence or malice (likely to justify the high tariffs). But basing the tariffs on import/export ratio makes sense if your goal is to be a net

Even if you use Rails or HTMX to get it done, you're still building an SPA.

Are there any code examples? I've looked for a bit but haven't found any. That should IMO be the first thing on any blog post about new frameworks.

SPAs are great for the hordes of B2B SaaS apps out there, which for the most part are just some fancy variants of a table. They're not a Photoshop, but they're still highly interactive.

What do you mean by "lighter than a React button"? Do you mean lighter than the entire React runtime, plus a React button? If so, that's somewhat disingenuous because even though a page with a single button would require the
