It gets worse when you read financial "social media" people repeating BS like "high yield savings account" there is no such thing as long as I am alive, it is something from maybe 80's or 90's or even earlier.

Not really because it works if candidates are trustworthy and you can evaluate the candidate without "hidden issues". Once you get all those applicants are good on the paper there might be one trustworthy, there might be one that

The second problem was trust. I’ve been burned before by hiring companies based on Internet reviews. A lot of businesses seem to optimize for low-cost labor and throughput. The person who actually shows up has little incentive to care abou

*Personally I think today's frontier models can be beat by training from scratch. Haven't proved this yet tho* On specific tasks sure on "generic performance" whatever that means for you not really.

I like to buy specific brand of soap. I don't want them to know that, it is my right and so is running local LLM "wasting" money on local inference to keep track of my stack of soap.

I don't believe this happened. Why would you go to a pub to talk to people if you have all those agents at home. Especially if one spent money on mac minis in bulk I wouldn't have money to spend on beer at the pub, just get cheap

Your answer makes sense for me only if your boss is Elon. For all the other companies fixing a bug has opportunity cost, they pick what to spend their resources on. Some 5 minute bug feels insignificant but if all devs start picking 5 minut

It is not "will" it always is money. There was an article some days ago where someone was claiming "with AI only you decide how many bugs you have" — well no the same forces apply because tokens are not free and business

Now my room is 26.5C and 40% relative humidity, it is really pleasant. There are days where it is 24C and relative humidity is showing 55%, that's when I turn on AC.

Now think about that he is counting it like: He never had to hire anyone in the first place. He didn't have to make any contracts, deal with screening, background checks, recruitment calls. All that money he didn't spend he can sp

I watched the talk and you had quite a lot of run-ins with feds. It seems they kind of had some idea about this stuff especially after what you uncovered. There was a movie from 1983 called "WarGames" !?!? Why oh why cyberspace wa

Correct me if I am wrong but I always thought http.sys is IIS. I guess if they can do changes to SCHANNEL but not to IIS for TLS stuff that would be good engineering. But it also makes argument mute ... because if Apache and Nginx and Caddy

Unfortunately LLMs made vector search more popular so it seems like something LLM specific. What makes it worse, a lot of people in the thread equate vector search with RAG, whereas RAG is the name for anything that model can query so a use

I think Bitwarden implemented some vector search in their password search feature ... totally annoying it gives me back all kinds of stuff that I don't care. I want fuzzy search like 95% of time and then I might consider having additio

It has newest TLS stuff like TLS 1.3, it has HTTP2/HTTP3 and QUICK implemented. I do think those are meaningful updates, well http2 was 11 years ago but QUICK is more like 3 years ago with HTTP3.

State surveillance builds infrastructure easily abused by bad actors, is a valid privacy argument. I see extreme comparisons, false binaries, and emotional framing, that is not really convincing me.
