From accounts it seems likely that they completely squandered that opportunity covering up for the exaggerations and fraud. If at the start there had been, at least internally, an honest view of: We have no idea how to do this, existing tec

Be nice to see some of these run on languages the pretrained model is a little less good at than Python and JS.

Pay differs a lot from place to place and sub-industry to subindistry. It's not uncommon to see people comment on redding claiming pay for something or another is far lower than I know of people earning in that field. To go by red

Requiring a government run cellmodem camera in every residence's home and bathroom would presumably help combat child abuse-- probably vastly better than DNS blocking as well. Am I correct in assuming you'd be all for it?

Taleb took payment to promote cryptocurrency scammer Craig Wright and his BSV scamtoken. If you see fraud and do not say fraud, you are a fraud.

I never heard of Galloway until a year or two ago when he was doing an obviously paid promotional circuit for cryptocurrency scammer Craig Wright, but since then his name seems to crop up all over the place. I'm generally not surprised

What? US banks won't bank you if you don't have 27 distinct forms of government ID and a recent rectal exam. And then they have someone with an incomprehensible accent in a call center that probably also runs scam calls calling yo

Not so much examples, though those can help... but you have to imagine a document of a sort that would be in the training set whose completion would be the answer you seek. Like, "Solve this equation for me: " more likely gets co

It's tricky, because you run the risk that any use risks disclosing the capability. Targets can even set traps. E.g. I caught irc opers spying on PMs by sending trap URLs where I secretly could see the access logs. Because great car

Wrong assumption. Lets imagine they could costslessly crack the encryption there. But as soon as they use any information gathered that way they risk leaking that they have this incredibly valuable capability. ... valuable and very fragil

Just noted to my partner last night, a screw and a nail are similar things, but "you screwed it" and "you nailed it" are opposites. But if you take them as sexual innuendo they mean the same thing again.

All of Solidworks, Onshape, and Freecad have a very similar operating philosophy (I believe they're all based on the same backend engine). I used onshape for a while because I found freecad unusable but recent improvements solved most

This is fantastic-- while I'm aware of most of the techniques in it, it would have saved me a ton of time and trouble if I had it a few years ago. Each of the points could basically be expanded to an article on their own. E.g. they do

IBLT operates over sets though, your downloading example is not over a set (the data has a position). You can make it work over data with positions by adding a position number to every encoding unit, but it's pure overhead. Other cod
