Just do what Apple does and add a BMS that’s coded to the ECU or so. Can be worked around of course but definitely makes it harder.

The reason it flipped is that it’s a SUBSCRIPTION. That’s just insanely obvious nickel and diming.

I find in the article the assumption almost insulting, that labs haven’t tried training smaller models for longer. Everybody tries that first, of course. It was the common wisdom for decades. No, it doesn’t work better or even as well. The

About as often as I have seen them be used, I would say. People also don't throw trash in their textile bags, they use plastic bags for that as they are disposable, so this creates a pretty clear selection bias.

I agree, this is just iterated or in series. Recursive would be a rack made of racks made of racks etc.

Plastic bags certainly have their issues, but I don’t think that a textile bags won’t tangle and kill marine life and wreak havoc in new and unique ways.

I’m not sure about paper cups but I know the numbers for plastic bags vs textile bags is something like you have to use the textile bag /several years/ for the emissions to even out. Let alone making any positive impact.

Which current public models do you think are getting to ChatGPT levels?

How is localization done here, onboard or with an external system eg mocap?

WebKit is probably the only thing holding the web open at this point. Imagine if this last bastion of non-Chromium went away, and Googles stranglehold on the web was finally total.

What would you have wraps() do for two functions? Concatenate the docstrings and union of the annotations? Perhaps you want only the latter, that seems like it could easily be its own decorator: `@functools.annotate_intersection(f1, f2, …)`

Sadly a problem with any wrapper function is that it nullifies this kind of information. Use functools.wraps.

I like this variant, it also works to show why any([]) is False.

So clearly 2 applies to Scheme, 3 game engine programmers and kernel hackers, 5 most of us, and 6 almost all of us.

The tokens are chosen by a method called BPE, and there are single letter tokens. IOW you can encode the same text many ways. That said, this is probably just shown like this for illustrative purposes.

Have you tried a waterpik? Considering an investment there myself.

More like Jupyter LLM.

Minor nit but commutative is the wrong term. Floats always obey a+b == b+a, but not associativity: (a+b)+c != a+(b+c).

Doesn’t ring true for me at all, academia is many things but if your supervisor is onboard, you can generally do anything.

I think you can tell people other ways that you degraded their experience intentionally. I guess I’m actually fine with popups too. The goal is to make Chrome known as the slow browser so people stop using it.

/More/ popovers and popups? What about just making the site slower?

Nice idea, but needs a better name!

That’s not similar at all, actually.

You would have to formalize the inputs and outputs of your notebook, perhaps a preamble with imports and so on. Then other notebooks could use yours, kind of like importing (perhaps exactly by importing?) As it is now, you typically wind up

All you have to believe is that there is a market for alternative tech stacks, and the embargo on exporting CPUs and CPU tech to China is basically guaranteeing that outcome. That’s the thing about totalitarianism, there can only be one.

Or maybe it doesn’t really do anything to improve performance.

I think you never actually used the mdfind search, only the bastardized version that is now available as Spotlight. That interface used to be good, now it’s so bad and slow I don’t know why they let this happen. But try mdfind with filename
