No, even contractors who are more expensive per day can be had for £200-300 per diem. Employee costs you are looking at closer to £165 including national insurance and pension on a standard £35k a year salary. Even an employee on £50k a yea

Does it really? Your average software engineer is like £20-30 an hour, for the cost of 1m output tokens you can get a Dev for a full week.

I'd be interested to read about the gibberish in UMAP, I know the paper "An improvement of the convergence proof of the ADAM-Optimizer" for the lemma problem in the original ADAM but hadn't heard of the second one. Do yo

Given ARM is mostly an IP bsaed company that wouldn't really work. For reference just look at what happened with ARM's china susidiary with which this basically happened.

the first case was literally a border check at an airport, and in which no evidence was ever shown of him committing a crime other than this one. The others yes. The point is no court was required to compell him, no warrant was needed. The

It has to be in writing, and given a time-frame, but the police are authorised to write such a note, as is the border force, the NCA and I think HMRC as well technically. There are cases of people being prosecuted under it [1], [2], [3] [1]

Another re-phrasing of my comment is that perhaps using Go they do not require the strong senior to kick it off. Otherwise yes there is always the argument of "they're just using it wrong" etc... ultimately: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've had rerun bookmarked for a few years and this comment is enough to persuade me to finally try it out. Currently I resort to notebooks for simpler stuff and just spinning up a quick GUI for anything more, I've always found the

I like to think of these problems as having skill ceilings and skill floors like in video games. For large companies often the skill floor is more important than the skill ceiling. If it is easier to start in B than A, even though after yea

I can't suggest a new test no, it is a hard problem and identifying problems is usually easier than solving them. I'm just trying to say that strong claims require strong evidence, and a claim that LLM's can have theory of mi

Yes but I am using the same source the commenter used to backup their figure, merely saying look your source doesn't say what you claim it does. If they wanted to talk about frontier models maybe they should have cited a link to talkin

My point is merely if you are going to make an argument using a source, the source should support your argument. If you say "the accuracy of an llm on task 1 is 90% [1]" and when you go to [1] it says the accuracy of an llm on tas

You are correct, in a large number of fields the PI (principal investigator) goes at the end, the big boss of the lab who manages it and often handles funding and the likes. Similar to the C-suite in a company.

Fantastic product and props to the creator on it! Though Mac only and a subscription price of this magnitude for an IDE is a hard sell, given the availability of other options, which aren't neccesarily $20 a month worse. Never the less

That same source you link says that your view of 100% is not accepted as a consesus: "... GPT-4's ability to reason about the beliefs of other agents remains limited (59% accuracy on the ToMi benchmark),[15] and is not robust to &

I'm not sure I'd say it understands this, but just that there exists an enormous amount of training data on road safety which includes these sort of examples for peoples motivations for poor driving. It is regurgitating the theory

You've looked at postdoc salaries, not PhD salaries. very different. For example in the UK a PhD will get somewhere aroun £19-21k a year, whilst a postdoc will get anywhere from £37-45k a year......

Yup, I recently travelled to Hong-Kong from the the UK and noticed just how much better coverage was in the city. I expect poor coverage when I'm in Yorkshire, but there is no excuse for just how bad London's coverage is. A lot of

you can instead use btrfs for your drive so you can access it on windows and linux, as the windows btrfs driver[1] is rather mature these days! [1]: https://github.com/maharmstone/btrfs

Also from the Harrogate area, but moved to London for uni and haven't made it back yet. Whilst Harrogate is very nice and affluent, I'd say the biggest difference isn't the personal wealth but the council wealth. There's

I think any list like this has to include: "Time, clocks, and the ordering of events in a distributed system" By Lamport also, in almost any networked system having strict ordering is fantastically useful. And of course how could
