OpenAI is done. This is the biggest Silicon Valley power play I can recall in the last 3 decades.

I've been on multiple boards. This was the dumbest move I've ever seen. The OpenAI board must be truly incompetent and this Ilya person clearly had no business being on it.

Others here have given some good methods. I should clarify that I can't do it on command, but rather, I can encourage it with a good degree of success. It leaves you really tired the next day, so it's but something I typically do

I've had the ability to induce lucid dreams for years now. What they aren't telling you is that it's very easy to lose oneself in the fantasy of it all. At worst, it can induce complete detachment and schizophrenic-like sympt

I've never once heard of a recruiter rescinding an offer after a relocation. Not once in 35 years. Recruiters also don't dictate layoffs. This is a function of Finance and layoffs are a part of life. And it is extremely rare for a

Not only an excess number of managers, but an excess number of poorly performing and poorly trained engineers. 2018-2022 was peak shit eating time for managers. I had to put up with no end of candidates who couldn't pass even the easie

Well, CEOs do look at these letters quite frequently. At least, I did when I was the CEO of a networking company. We were only selling equipment in the US at the time but some had found its way around the globe. This one particular Indian g

I intentionally caused a problem like this for a co-worker in 1996. He was a flamboyant character and had a habit of talking loudly on the phone for an hour or so a day. I modified his mouse driver to give me remote control on demand and in

Nice, but I can't figure out how to search it. The "Small Web" site linked to in the article just shows a number of links to Kagi articles.

I agree. I would also like to know what the performance implications of this language are. Specifically, having two or more CPUs accessing a single object sounds easy in theory, but in practice it is quite complex. My suspicion is that this

Funny how the same things get done over and over again. I went down this road in 2016. Spent about a year on an incredibly sophisticated retirement planner, with customizable scenarios. It was personally very useful so I started down the co

The first time I saw this discussed here (a couple of months ago), I thought this was clickbait. Since then, I've found that the quality of coding answers has declined to the point where I have almost stopped using GPT-4 entirely. That

Right on. Though the safety features built in to modern cars these days are light years ahead of what they were back then. The primary safety feature of my 1960 MGA is a foam padded bar for the passenger to bounce their head off of during a

I just got the dual webers running on my VW beetle. I'll have to try that pedal pumping routine, because it sure as hell won't start without at least one pump, even if it's 110 degrees outside.
