It's the reduced caloric intake that does it, not the specifics of the diet. But also > Patients are given low-calorie meal replacement products such as soups, milkshakes and snack bars for three months Something that goes below the

The thing about Berkshire is that they're so big that they can either buy pieces of huge companies like Apple, all of which have high valuations, or they can sit on the cash. Nothing else moves the needle for them - an amazing multi-mi

Pydantic, dataclasses and mypy help a lot, I don't get what you mean by incentivizing strings and dictionaries for everything, that definitely doesn't sound like good modern Python. The go-to-definition functionality is available

Can you expand on the features you need for managing complexity in large code bases? We’ve built a few APIs which serve millions of users without any problems and with very low latency with FastAPI, and so far we’re very happy with the choi

Not taking in as many calories helps weight loss.

Are those additional positive effects reported specifically for semaglutide/GLP-1? Because over time we're moving away from semaglutide - tirzepatide is much more effective for weight loss than semaglutide and is a much weaker GLP

The "failing to lose" group should be very small, these drugs are very effective. The main reason to discontinue will be people who have reached their goal weight, many of whom unfortunately will gain it back after stopping the me

I got into Acquired through the Jim Simons episode which was great but the rest of their content is hit and miss. Sometimes they get hard to listen to because they treat every company as something incredible and many of them aren't - t

Nobody should use TIOBE for anything ever. Except maybe for making jokes. As one example, it ranks Typescript lower than languages like VBScript and FoxPro which have been dead for many years. The worst kind of garbage information is the ki

It’s good and useful. Some use cases in NLP have moved over to using LLMs, many use cases in NLP/vision are basically using pre trained models and adding some simple similarity search or simple classification on top of it. Then you hav

Typically what happens for ML engineering roles is that you have a regular Leetcode round as for any other SWE position and an additional round with ML questions without coding - there's no ML-specific LC questions. Which is nice as a

Having good taste - about code, about the tools you use, about what to build in the first place, about how you collaborate with people, about what’s worth spending time on and arguing about.

> Data engineering feels like the DevOps of AI/ML. I wouldn't label it that way, AI/ML has its own ops and devops which is very distinct from data engineering.

I would give the exact opposite advice - data engineering is one of the least rewarding or respected career paths.

Isn't the interview the same anyway, just that candidates from top schools get interviews and the rest don't? I woulld love to work at a hedge fund or a trading company but since I don't have experiene in a similar company or

In other news, for a couple of weeks now Youtube on Firefox lags so much that it's barely usable and Prime Video is completely broken.

We had solutions to Leetcode problems before LLMs, I don't see what's changed. If your concern is about the value/signal of such an interview, it's the same as before regardless of how high or low you think it is. If you

Both GPT-4 and 4o have been completely useless for coding in the past couple of weeks for me - constant errors, and not just your typical LLM inaccuracies but incapable of producing a few lines of self-consistent code e.g. defines variables

Recently I'm getting some strange behavior from ChatGPT (with GPT-4) where it outputs a code snippet in which it declares a variable, and then on the very next line it forgets the name of the variable and refers to it as something else

It's hyped. It's also legitimately useful. I expect to see many more real use cases and integrations into existing technology and into everyday life. And that's just with the models we have at the moment, who knows if newer m

Another distinction is that “weightlifting” typically refers to the sport of Olympic weightlifting which includes two movements - the snatch and the clean and jerk. It’s not the same as “lifting weights”.
