>Yes, there are trade-offs, but you can get really great tires on all three. there is another metric at play with Michelin, they're consistently one of the most expensive options in every segment.

this is a common concept in space-craft thought experiments because of the dual-use nature; can shield yourself with a big water balloon essentially at the tip of the space craft to catch all those pesky extra energetic particles that are b

the picture of that GPU installed on the side of the firewall tunnel reminded myself and my husband of a gadget they would have shown off in the original Batman series. "Golly gee whilikers Batman, what is this high tech contraption?&q

this is becoming less true with every generation of model. a decent model with a decent harness will determine when the knowledge base is lacking and attempt to fill the holes; thus the good general models can be very easily brought up to s

>Pick something slightly esoteric (eg Haskell) and the quality of public code is very high, because you only have enthusiasts writing it. that and the language supports (enforces) good decision making; static typing w/ inference and

there is a relationship there, but there is also a relationship to the safety of the language and the guard rails in place. it's a lot harder to experience an agent telling you with certainty that something incomplete is totally finish

conceptually it's a cool idea. practically the results seem about as coherent as import random; print(random.choice(list(my_dict))) ..but way slower is there a practical use to a model this small?

Well you don't actually know that from the story. Being in the same yacht club as the owner of the building conveys these kind of powers - it's like no one has encountered preferential treatment, good or bad, before.

If a professional group of people are wasting their time and attention on you then it's fruitful to imagine what resources they may have to leverage against you, I don't think that's hard to argue. Few people cave when there

I felt zero sympathy after the author decided to ignore any possible valid reasoning under the cemented position of 'well I pay rent' -- that's not maturity. Further more, my rule: the more someone tells you how mature their

At the very least it's a cliff hanger. If the authority figure has the balls to say 'fine, I'll get your contract terminated' I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if that was exactly the outcome.

Neat to read about that technique being used in port of Los Angeles while sitting here eating breakfast in my boat. Unexpected.

Because llms can write like anyone in the same way that a type writer can; with a skilled human typist behind it. You see a lot of crap for the same reason most code is crap - the human who did the thing sucked. Language models aren't

Well yeah, probably -- during this self made crisis oil prices in the US are some of the most well controlled. Destabilizing everywhere else is a potential step taken toward achieving continental superiority in certain regards. ( not a GOOD

War is one of the most high tech and technologically interesting things humans do, and is often the first place that truly state of the art abilities are showcased. It's not hard for me to understand why techies would be so interested.

I don't think these kind of language struggles are as minor as you paint them, especially around regulation and law-making. a well understood and unified spoken language is the keystone to a lot of human endeavor; even if the goal is a
