I've used this app for like four different talks over the years, I could clean it up, but then I break code samples in my talks.

The text is written to be spoken, it works better when I present it. I'll have the video edited next week, that may flow better for you.

There's one notable exception! Tech work in the Silicon Valley area. All other jobs should be paid like that to keep up with productivity and inflation since the 70's.

No. The money-havers will just cut the costs from software developers and our jobs will be gone forever.

Roger, I'll go get hacking. Until then, grab the version on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/layoff-xe-iaso-fefqe Soon I will migrate XeDN storage to Tigris and then we should never have this problem ever

I have! A lot of the drafting process for vetting ideas involves having a model generate out a few paragraphs of what the story could entail, but the rest of it is really writing out outlines like this: https://xena.greedo.xeserv

Yeah, the trick to writing science fiction is that it's almost never about the grandeur of the setting, it's using that setting and its technology as a tool to lay bare the inherent problems with society and humanity. One of the t

Something that got pruned from the final draft was the manager also being there to monitor the call, but also an AI duplicate. I thought that was too creepy and it would make it too realistic, so it was left on the cutting-room floor.

I'd love to not have to put a disclaimer there, but legal counsel advised me to.

I've heard from a friend that the way they found someone was laid off was by Google Calendar suddenly removing the person that was laid off from invites while in a 1:1 with their manager. The manager had no context. That kind of inhuma

The best science fiction uses technology to shine a light on the inherent problems of the human condition. The hard part is not making it depressing or a stand-up comedy routine. It requires a lot of balance, which requires me to take weeks

I've been considering compiling my Techaro stories into a book eventually, it'd probably involve a lot of editing and reformatting, but it's a thing I want to work on eventually.

Wellllllll, technically there is LSVD which would let you store model weights in S3. God that's a horrible idea. Blog time!

The slowest part is loading weights into vram in my experience. I haven't done benchmarking on that. What kind of benchmark would you like to see?

by xena 3y ago
Well, let me put it this way. I have a MacBook with 64 GB of vram so I can experiment with making an old-fashioned x.ai clone (the meeting scheduling one, not the "woke chatgpt" one) amongst other things now. I love how Apple Sili
