They're the best. They don't even ask for personal information when creating an account (heck, they don't ask for anything at all) and you can pay with crypto or cash. They use Wireguard and their desktop and mobile apps are

Futures and options were born from commercial needs. Suppose you produce oranges. It'll take a few months for the harvest, and while costs are generally well understood and stable, at what price will you sell those oranges? What if by

It also depends on what the goal is. If you need to extract some data from a specific site (as opposed to obtaining faithful representations of pages from arbitrary sites like a search engine might need to), then SPAs might be the easiest t

The blog post about verifying ChatGPT code with Kani is very interesting. [0] It introduced me to model checking with Kani [1], which seems to be very similar to fuzzing, but with a different goal and underlying algorithm. Fuzzy testing inv

I found this paragraph so relatable: > Personally, I like to put a single song on repeat for hours and hours, days even. It helps me zone in. Why does this admittedly strange behavior help me? I'm not sure exactly, but I've kno

Same here. JupyterLab is just too overwhelming and full of things I don't need. I just need an interactive Python interpreter with support for visualizations and editing code blocks. That's Jupyter Notebook, so I keep using that.

I tried many alternatives, and finally settled on Kagi Search. It's a paid option but it's well worth it. They also have tools like FastGPT which I'm using more and more. It's a GPT model that has access to their search

I had the misfortune of inheriting a MySQL 5.6 database and I had to manage it for a year and a half. It wasn't very big (less than 100GB), but: - for some reason it hang periodically and had to be restarted during the night for no app

In that case, how is the AI going to keep tens or hundreds of thousand of lines in memory to produce cohesive code that works with the rest of the codebase? It seems prohibitely expensive to build and run transformer models with that much c

It's not trained at all. The bot finds relevant comments and then uses OpenAI's API to summarize them.

They have a nested structure, it's a pain to encode that in query parameters.

I think the main differences are internal state and feedback loops. The language model is stateless and immutable, whereas human brains are stateful and plastic. To mimic state within ChatGPT all the previous prompts and responses are fed t

Doesn't the WETH smart contract store all the tokens it receives at its address? Doesn't anyone have the private key of that address? It's been quite a long time since I have been playing with smart contracts and I don't

People already spend hours and hours per day on social media, very often just to fill time and avoid boredom. I can absolutely see the metaverse taking up some of that time.
