I'm curious how it plays out if Trump simply refuses to allow electors from non-republican states physical access to attend congress after the next election. My understanding is, they have to be physically present to cast their votes.

One thing to openly recognise is that FOMO is one of the core marketing strategies applied in any hype bubble to get people on board. There seem to be multiple blog posts a day on HN that are thinly veiled marketing about AI and most follow

This is a fantastic way of framing it, in terms of simple fundamental principles. The problem with most presentations of injection attacks is it only inspires people to start thinking of broken workarounds - all the things mentioned in the

if employment reduced, did the industry contract? Or did it maintain its size and make do with less employees? It's not good for the individuals, but in broader economic terms, an industry that delivered the same value with less people

The edge is, "it actually works". Eg: I just set the device to "mps" in PyTorch, everything is using the GPU.Until nVidia gets monopoly treatment for CUDA and are forced to open their software stack, Metal is the next be

this is the real answer it has to be released because it's not much better and OpenAI needs the team to stop working on it. They have serious competition now and can't afford to burn time / money on something that isn&#x2

I think this is a belated but smart move by OpenAI. They are basically fully moving in on Meta's strategy now, taking advantage of what may be a temporary situation with Meta dropping back in model race. It will be interesting to see i

Aider does know the whole repository tree (it scans the git index). It just doesn't read the files until you tell it to. If it thinks it needs access to a file, it will prompt you to add it. I find this to be a fairly good model. Obvio

Perhaps you set a very high quality bar, but I don't see the LLMs creating messy code. If anything, they are far more diligent in structuring it well and making it logically sequenced and clear than I would be. For example, very often

I'm most interested in how well these tools can tackle complex legacy systems. We have tonnes of code that's been built over a decade with all kinds of idioms and stylistic conventions that are enforced primarily through manual re

One thing I'm really happy about with the rise of EVs is that they seem to be unlocking a fresh wave of innovation. This is in part because at a fundamental level, they are much simpler and easier to manufacture and more flexible in te

It's a good analysis. For me the big concern is really the level of detachment from reality that I'm seeing around time scales. People in the startup world seem to utterly fail to appreciate the complexity of changing business pro

The problem with this is that it's entirely evidence free. I could also say, if you truly believe nuclear fusion is imminent we will have infinite free energy and all current economic metrics are meaningless. But there is no nuclear fu

I think a key point from this article that I agree strongly with is the simple point that it is crucial that everyone recognise we are currently in an AI bubble . I often find people contest this with the non-sequitur of "No, it'

the law is pretty fickle that way. It's illegal to rob a bank no matter how badly you bungle it. Saying afterwards "but my gun was clearly made of plastic" probably won't get you completely off the hook if you actually

It really surprises me that embeddings seem to be one of the least discussed parts of the LLM stack. Intuitively you would think that they would have enormous influence over the network's ability to infer semantic connections. But it d

I accept most of your point - that engineering has a much broader definition than what I'm alluding to. But the part I'll quibble with is the extent to which there are "scientific principles" involved here. This seems al

It seems endemic to software to me that people constantly want to brand things as "engineering" that aren't. They always want to call it engineering because it sounds better but they don't want to do nearly anything asso

Yes, it does rely on charging infra rolling out - either at work or with fast DC charging. But that is happening too. Well, in markets where EV adoption is encouraged - for the US, I guess we'll see.

I agree with you it's very fashion driven and hence you see it in all kinds of places outside the core drivers of it. But my argument is, those fashions themselves are driven by the major players deciding to do this for less than honor

I think the article overlooks that it is not really an accident that apps and operating systems are hiding all their user interface affordances. It's an antipattern to create lock in, and it tends to occur once a piece of software has
