I kind of love Meta for all the seemingly unnecessary internal stuff they do. They have so many projects that are absolutely not critical for them, maybe not even net positive, but they spend who knows how many hours building and maintainin

What's the statement that OpenAI are making today which you think they're violating? There very well could be one and if there is, it would make sense to talk about it. But arguments like "you wrote $x in a blog post when you

And Apple's product line this year? Phones. Nothing to do with fruit. Almost 50 years of lying to people. Names should mean something!

We’re at a point where regular users already have everything they need, from any model in the past few years.

There’s definitely a feeling that the Pro models are the actual model and the non-Pro is a bit closer to the old C/SE models. It didn’t feel that way a few releases ago. I do love the colors on the regular models though!

Let me clarify that (1) I've written a decent amount of Rust before giving up on it (2) I'm not a systems programmer, all of the problems I work on can be solved with higher level garbage collected languages. The thing that I find

So you do agree that other languages achieve the same thing with much less complexity?

by sk11001 2y ago
I don't understand the people who look at this and go "yep, we should have more of this language". It's complexity for its own sake.

Yes, it's treatment for obesity too, not just diabetes. Many of the people who come off it gain back a significant amount of weight (good to keep in mind that most people regain weight regardless of the method of weight loss, this effe
