They’re pure as far as I know. Would calcium be listed as an ingredient?

I experience a chalky scent from high dose caffeine pills. I don’t think the taste is unique to the intravenous caffeine.

The problem isn’t the platform, it’s the people. If mastodon got as popular as twitter the level of discourse would fall to the same level.

The said during the event that they have a custom chip to do the signal processing for the cameras and sensors. I fully believe they’ve solved the camera latency issue.

I’m convinced it’s not possible to build a decent headset without eye tracking. Low latency, high refresh rates, massive resolutions, in a tiny footprint just isn’t possible with our current generation of chips. Eye tracking lets you put y

It’s a chameleon of a term that can mean anything you want. That’s not a good thing.

That’s a monumentally stupid reason to alienate your most dedicated users.

A large portion of reddit contributors use 3rd party apps. Will reddit even be worth using if those people leave? That’s a huge risk, and I’m not confident Reddit has fully evaluated the second order effects of this API change.

I concede nothing. That clever play on words is comfortably outside the output distribution of a modern GPT. When the relationship between tokens can perplex a 175B parameter model, it’s no longer superficial.

Maybe, maybe not. The human brain trains on its own output without descending into chaos. It’s not hard to imagine a scheme where you use a model like GPT-4 to filter a dataset before training. Classification is easier than creation, so you

It was probably upvoted for the “inverse loop-de-loop”. That’s a great line.

I’d say humor gets upvotes precisely because it’s not superficial. Humor arises from presenting ideas in a simple but still surprising new way. It takes insight into both the subject and the audience. Humor is practically the antithesis of

So your theory is that people go around upvoting posts based solely on them looking somewhat correct? I’ve never upvoted anything that didn’t help me solve a problem. I don’t imagine random upvotes are very common. Also, to your point about

I think there’s value in a service that indexes and ranks AI generated responses. If hypothetically stack overflow was 100% AI generated content, it would be acting like a cache for GPT-4. Running GPT-4 is far more expensive than a stack ov

And? If the answers are getting upvotes then they’re by definition helpful. What’s the problem?

Average technical literacy decreases the further back you go. I don’t think that’s controversial.

Couldn’t agree more. The older generation didn’t go to school in a world with Google, and they dont’t understand what technology prohibition does to kids. I’ve gone to school with people who weren’t allowed access to technology. Saying it p

It’s a horrible move. When it comes to technology, the kids affected by this will be illiterate compared to their peers. I graduated college in 2018. Some of my classmates weren’t allowed to use “screens” growing up, and you could tell inst

Absolutely, we should be building public transportation for the next generation. But pretending that it’s a solution for people today and using it as an excuse not to build self driving cars is short sighted and stupid.

Did you really just compare Tesla’s driver assist to lynching?

Textbook prices are so high that they create the impression among students that the publishers are stealing from them. Copyright provides publishers with a legal monopoly, which they exploit to increase prices. Whether we like it or not, pi

Sure, with 80 years and a trillion dollars that could work. Why bother working on self driving software when you can restructure all of society.

Most people use FSD as a driver assist because the software will permanently ban you from the beta program if you don’t keep your hands on the wheel. No one who has used the software for more than a minute has any misconceptions about FSD.

I don’t know, can a train take you from any arbitrary point to any other arbitrary point?

There’s a large portion of the population in the US, mostly lower income, that commutes two hours a day. Solving self driving means giving those people that time back. That’s time that can be used to relax, take a nap, communicate with fri

You can imagine my shock every time the steering wheel nag goes off. You’d think I’d learn by now.

Is this the article you’re talking about? https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/17/magazine/tesla-autopilot-... The “totaled car” was a 2015 Model S which would have been running MobilEye software, not FSD. St

Is data compression really a problem? Compression algorithms are meticulously tuned to preserve important details. In theory, a model that operates on compressed data has a real advantage over one that operates on raw data. You’ve reduced t

I pay some money once a month for my car to drive me around. My car then drives me around. My argument is that since I’m paying month by month I clearly know what I’m buying and have properly evaluated the value proposition. The classic arg

FSD isn’t to the point where it can safely operate without a driver monitoring it. You’re arguing against allowing it on the roads with a safety driver on the basis that FSD isn’t ready to be operated without a safety driver. That makes z
