Surface Laptop 5 costs $899. Still no sign of "extra up-front cost" of Apple. For me, Surface Laptop isn't even in the running because of poor screen resolution. The old Surface Book has 3000x2000 resolution which is 200%, bu

In the last few decades, there has been an increased interest in the role of prediction in language comprehension. The idea that people predict (i.e., context-based pre-activation of upcoming linguistic input) was deemed controversial at fi

A lot of people are already benefiting from ChatGPT. I know I am, and I am only paying $20 a month for a digital assistant that is expert in everything.

The whole "holistic review" crap should be banned. It was originally invented to reduce the number of Jewish people [1]. It is still being used for illegal or illicit discrimination of one kind or another. This article [2] says &q

Right, I would be surprised if Bing sees any sustained benefit. The search engine still sucks, and the way they integrated ChatGPT sucks even more. I use Google a lot less these days, but the beneficiary, in my case at least, is not Bing, b

With Wolfram plugin ChatGPT is going to become a Math genius. OpenAI is moving fast to make sure their first-mover advantage doesn't go to waste.

You expect trillion-dollar companies to contribute to society by occasionally doing some original work. Instead, they suck the oxygen out of the room by copying market-successful ideas, thereby stifling innovators.

Looks like they are copying Notion. A lot of things have changed at Microsoft under Satya Nadella. One thing that hasn't changed is their inability to create anything original.

Yes, but by "supercharging" artists, each artist will be able to do more, which means fewer artists will be needed.

> ChatGPT/GPT-4 alone are limited to reformulating what they know from their training data. That's not true. They are extrapolating. If they weren't, they wouldn't have the problem known as "hallucination"

This is not a helpful comment. Why not point out the actual issues, instead of just calling it "self-righteous", and assuming everyone understands what you mean?

Microsoft should not have mentioned this, because it shows how bad Microsoft is at managing AI. Look at how many glowing articles have been written about ChatGPT vs. Bing Chat. Microsoft is tarnishing AI chat bots' reputation.

SVB purchased corporate bonds that declined in value, but didn't decline all the way to zero. They still have those bonds, and I believe they can still be sold for > 80% of the price they paid.

That's awesome! It lets me use POJO (Plain Old JavaScript Objects), and it makes efficient copies? Definitely going to give this a try.

by petilon 4y ago
immer makes an "efficient copy" of the object, right? Keeping references to some nested objects in the original object when possible? If so that's cool... but not sure it is worth the effort.

by petilon 4y ago
Just read the docs for useReducer. It says you should not change the original object. You have to make a copy.

deepClone is convenient, when you want to modify a field that's deep inside the object.
