   The linked paper makes it clear it will be released under a non-commercial license. You will download it gratis (so it won't be paid), but it won't be open source.

   "It wants to be free" is a ridiculous statement, considering that after full two years (GPT-3 was published in May 2020), there is no public release of anything comparable. In May 2020, was your estimate of time to public release

   Because you don't want GC to interfere with cache.

   It seems basically equivalent to gcc/glibc, which I think is a good default.

   I think you are reacting too strongly. Really, what's the problem?

   > Otherwise, what's the point? Hare seems to solve spatial memory safety and null safety, which I think is a big deal.

   Probably talking about libav. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libav has some pointers.

   This is a non-issue. YJIT only targets x86-64. After all, this is a JIT. If you designed a new architecture X, you need to port YJIT itself to target X, in addition to GCC, LLVM, etc.

    I confirm semiconductor writings in Chinese/Korean are much better than those in English. (Not Cantonese: Cantonese is pretty weak as a written language.) Somewhat surprisingly, best writings, at least at popular level, come from Japan

    I use PyPy for such cases. Is Crystal better than PyPy?

    An apple to apple comparison is impossible because rustboot compiled a very different language. But I suspect suitably updated rustboot would be still faster because compilation time is dominated by LLVM.

    For Rust, I think improvement was almost entirely due to LLVM producing faster code. That's not applicable to Zig case, since both old and new compiler use LLVM. I don't know enough about Zig to answer.

    I am not sure what code samples you looked at, but https://ziglearn.org/chapter-2/ should give you an idea.

    Well, OCaml Rust compiler also didn't use LLVM and used its own lightweight code generator and I think self-hosted Rust compiler frontend was in fact faster than OCaml Rust compiler frontend.

    Zig uses manual memory management too (even more manual than Rust), so that's a bit strange question.

    Note that linked post is an explanation of DALL-E, not DALL-E 2, which works differently.

    It's more of "this direction seems higher ROI than that direction", in particular quality vs quantity of data. Already in 2018 SenseTime reported that for face recognition, clean dataset surpasses accuracy of 4x larger raw da

    I still get lots of spam on Google. Maybe it's better for English? I mostly search in Korean.

    While "The Next Google for Wall Street" is one interpretation of "The Next Google", I am more interested in "The Next Google for me".

    How do I disable location based customization for Google?
26. 866.▲
    by sanxiyn 5y ago

    You can configure Kagi to disable location based customization, which can be a big improvement indeed.

    Kagi can filter domains. Do try it.
28. 868.▲
    by sanxiyn 5y ago

    Kagi is "users pay". Yes, average users won't pay, but I don't see how that matters to me as a Kagi user.

    I mostly replaced my use of Google Scholar with Elicit. You ask questions, and Elicit gives answers, with citations. Elicit is powered by GPT-3 and it is amazing. Go try it. https://elicit.org/
