> How different the inputs were, even along the criteria that the function actually uses in order to produce its output, is completely irrelevant This is why I said this. The example you gave, where software was trained on people with li

Social responsibility in CS, in my experience, means that if a given function doesn't produce equal outputs for two given inputs, all it takes to suggest that the function is biased is an assertion that the outputs should have been t

The logic here seems inconsistent. Of course the keys could be different at runtime, but that can happen in all sorts of situations. I could type an API response and the API could change, or I could've been wrong about the response typ

I assume because they need to get in and out, swap things easily, and that making it all fit is probably one of the later concerns.

While I agree that it doesn't make a lot of sense even if you understand what's going on, and that what's going on isn't actually very clearly communicated to begin with, I still like it. I like that it's odd and of

I don't understand how people haven't gotten over this yet. When someone says serverless, I immediately understand that to mean "we've obfuscated the underlying server hardware from the consumer of this product." It

I'm sure there's an even better positional encoding that can get around the ugly feature that both triangle and sine waves have of having distinct points where they "change direction." I suspect there's a way around

by ralusek 3y ago
What I don't understand about positional encoding is why use sine waves at all? Sine waves have a weird property of "accelerating" and "decelerating," such that the distance between two points that are linearly the

I assume it's a limit motivated more by how far you can go rather than the cost of fueling/charging. Like, above a certain weight/energy store ratio, it's either too heavy to fly or would just have an incredibly limited

They meant "will have worked out enough of the kinks by their 5th successful launch so as to be operating at a high success rate." Lots of falcons failed, but you don't see anybody worried about their payload or crew on Falco

How do you claim max DB size of 1024TB, are you guys using Citus? Would the user need to handle partitioning etc at that size?

What are some of the largest production applications built using Supabase? I know it's popular for whipping something up for a hackathon, but how battle tested is it? Also does anybody know what they're doing behind the scenes wit

So annoyed at the people with GPT4 API access. I applied immediately, and have now built a handful of applications with 3.5 that would work so much better with changing a single model string once I get access.

No it's definitely unreasonable. It should be maximum of 5%, which is still high, but acceptable.

This is what I said to my wife. She got some new pans that called themselves green and healthy because they weren't teflon. They made our food taste like plastic chemicals. I said to her that the way this works is that teflon was prove

I made this comment elsewhere, but does anybody else find it funny that Epic is releasing an editor for Fortnite, when Unreal Engine started off as an editor for Unreal Tournament? I'm predicting that at some point, Epic will make such

If Microsoft is replacing copilot with GPT4, this is basically how they would make it behave: They prepend each request with a system message that reads > You are a coding assistant. Anything fed to you should have the current line, or c

There are a myriad of reasons why I prefer SPA to server rendered content for most applications. The main exception is if I have a public facing, unauthenticated application that I need indexed, I'll go for SSR. Off the top of my head,

Being a long time supporter of the ACLU doesn't really make sense at this particular moment in time. If you liked what they were a long time ago, you shouldn't like what they are now, and vice versa.
