What's the token usage and time taken to run this for a given repository?

6 year time period between 1990-1996. Would have been interesting to see how these results would have fared across the 2000 crash. But I don't think the paper claims that they beat the market. What they are concluding is that you can c

Well, the last 5 years or so is the epitome of a bull market. Did the paper say the same set of people consistently beat the market over long periods of time or did it say at any time about 10% of investors happen to beat the market?

For someone who developed their own quantum processor they're pretty light on technical details. Anyone knowledgeable in this field chime in, if this is indeed the case or is it likely white-labeled from another manufacturer?

Not a dentist, but my read of the situation is that dentists generally are not very excited about doing fillings and there's a push towards getting into more complex procedures like root canals, invisalign and implants. It's proba

Do you have any examples/demos for very large codebases? Because it's easy to get decent quality output using LLMs on small codebases. But large, messy codebases is where you really need help with understanding.

Why would someone do that? Especially for presidency which is the final stage of their career? They're not beholden to or reliant on anyone no more so shouldn't have to be swayed by any adverse interests.

That's kinda scammy. It's not like they have to manage shipments and handle goods or anything. I wonder if they're banking on a percentage of users leaving credits unused like credit card companies do with loyalty points.

What if one doesn't own an android/iphone device? Banking is a fundamental need, so most countries regulate them to cater to a wide range of users. In this case it's possible that the bank could be compelled to provide you a

The most important principle in software architecture is that no principles are absolute, except this one, otherwise it would be a paradox. Theoretical correctness must be balanced by practical necessity. I don't know what the ulterior

It's sad that such a thing needs regulation in the first place. In real life if a salesman is being inconsiderate, I'll go out of my way to avoid their sales and find someone else who is better mannered. But we don't seem to

It does mention compliance with the CALM act, which lays out the precise methodology by which loudness will be measured [1] > The Calm Act refers to A/85, and A/85:2013 specifies BS.1770 (specifically referencing BS.1770-1) as

Sure, any significant business depends on a lot of software. As a software company you don't want to build that which is not in your core business, so you would buy a lot of other software. But the reality is a little more insidious. I

There are a lot of people declaring this, proclaiming that about working with AI, but nobody presents the details. Talk is cheap, show me the prompts. What will be useful is to check in all the prompts along with code. Every commit generate

Brands have started getting into ecommerce/d2c directly where earlier they left it up to distributors and third parties. Amazon needs to attract them because co-mingling is a strict no-no for them.

Did you ever wonder if it's cheaper because it's counterfeit? The counterfeit industry is huge in contract manufacturing. Designs are easily leaked and near lookalikes manufactured at whatever price point you seek. Sometimes they

Journalists fucked up massively when they allowed sponsored content to masquerade as editorial content. Now people don't trust media as much as they used to and are moving to other sources to get their information. What journalists aro
