There are no other laptops on the market with as much VRAM as the 64GB MBP's have as far as I know. You could make a Linux desktop computer with two 3090's, linked together giving 48GB of VRAM. Wich apparently can run a 4-bit quan

He's deriding the agile movement. He's saying if you don't know how to properly design software (up front), then he supposes that doing it in an iterative fashion is an acceptable alternative. The way he says it implies that

Ah my apologies, it wasn't intended as an attack. I suppose it comes across as flippant.

Yeah the 2010 Macbook Pro is clearly superior in every regard. It had 32 more pixels heightwise, so that's at least 2 lines more code on your screen too.

No, it is still your only option. And using it is the best way of signalling that it is still an important browser.

The OpenAI assistants API is an implementation of a RAG pipeline. It performs both RAG on any documents you upload, and on any conversation you have with it that exceeds the context.

You have to invest some time into making it able to solve speicifc kinds of problems. I haven't used AutoGPT in a while because I'm working on my own agent. That it spent an hour figuring out it wasn't running on a Debian bas

I don't get how they're in the "Low" category for model autonomy. "Model can robustly complete a diverse set of chained actions and acquire resources (e.g., spin up an AWS instance, complete a Fiverr task) OR model,

I think it's a reference to something Elon Musk recently said about the 48 volt system in the Cybertruck. Apparently switching to 48v allows them to use ethernet in the car and save 77% on wiring. I'm not sure why 48V specifically

You've definitely hired more than me, and if you're interviewing as the owner of a company that makes you a hiring manager right? If not then I've got my definition wrong and I'm not one either. Are you saying that if yo

If you're grinding leetcode and are working on side projects you're already in the top 10% of applications for me as a hiring manager. I'm not in the Bay Area so maybe competition's a bit more intense over there. Besides

Sorry you're feeling bad, hope you get out of it soon. I'm a bit tired working two jobs and a baby at home so I probably went in a bit too hard as well.

Did you even read the article? These people are very young, and deeply regret the way they decided to live their lives. And tradies is not some kind of slur, it's how they refer to their colleagues across the trades. And wtf is up with

Yeah, I feel the reflog is more of a tool to do introspection on a git repository than that is a tool for collaboration. It's just something I've felt was missing from Git. If you're looking at the main branch of a repository

In my opinion the feature Git has always been missing is version control of branches. Of course the immediate consequence would be that you'd be able to roll back changes to branches but there'd be some more fundamental consequenc

Not super common, but many people dream of having better jobs and there's few better jobs than software engineering in the US. It's harder to move to the US since Trump cracked down on immigration.

Yeah that's true, and I do believe there's a good chance our minds are perpetually adding tokens. But our minds also have an efficient/effective way of dealing with the context cut off. We don't have (or we don't ex

by tinco 3y ago
I feel the "let's think about it step by step" is a bit of a hack. To circumvent the fact that there's no external loop you use the fact that it gets re-run on every token so you can store a bit of state in the tokens th

I think that if they would, that would be very surprising and indicative of a lot of wastefulness inside the model architecture. All these tests are simple single prompt experiments, so the LLM's get no chance to reason about their res

Yeah so I was wondering if a possible solution to your proposed market failure could be a service that motivates people to get rid of their mortgages by buying them off. This would eliminate the problem of having to find a counter party, yo

Would a bank pay cash to be relieved of a 3% mortgage? My brother sold his house half a year ago when he split up from his partner. I'm pretty sure they had a 15yr 2% mortgage. Did they do the bank a huge favor by just selling the hous

Humans don't work this way either. You don't need the LLM to do the logic, you just need the LLM to prepare the information so it can be fed into a logic engine. Just like humans do when they shut down their system 1 brain and go

This is due to a conflict of philosophies within the RoR community. Basically the clean code enthusiasts (which are also more likely to subscribe to DDD) argue that business logic should not be tied to which specific web application framewo

Makes sense, we're also very small (pre-seed) so definitely no cash cow for you guys yet. We probably shouldn't be prematurely optimizing our prompting performance as it's not really a bottleneck, but a 4x improvement just by

I can't edit my original comment anymore, but I was wrong. It's not government mandated, just regulated in the sense that there's an income tax break for any travel compensation up to 21ct per km. Most unionized (CAO) employe

Will you be offering the model as an API service? The product my team is working on would benefit from a significantly faster and possibly better performing model than GPT-4. If you're planning on keeping pace with competitive models w

Is it typical that gas for commute is not covered? In The Netherlands that's a government regulation as well, never realised that might be uncommon.
