I am in a similar situation. I have written most backends in AspNet Core, mostly because C# is usually my go-to language. I have looked into Blazor a bit. There are some aspects it does well and writing frontend in C# is very appealing to me, however, the way of datafetching is not the most elegant, as far as I have seen and can judge.
Generally longer inputs can help reduce the amount of cherry picking you need. And of course there are many jailbreaks to get around no access to the internet. In this demo I actually didn’t use any! :>)
I think you are smart and insightful person. There's too many of "yes we could be better but we are still the best while those other suck beyond improvement unless we fix them" East and West, left and right. I hope to fix my country and I hope you fix yours. Maybe we even come together and fix them both. But I hope some won't attepmt to fix my country again with dropping depleted uranium bombs on civillians in the name of democracy.
"Live and let live" is based on the hope that everyone adopts that philosophy.

Obviously with humans this can never be the case, until we modify our own brains/neurochemistry.

IMO, adhere to it so long as the "Non-aggression Principle" holds, once that's breached, do whatever it is you have to do.

“live and let live” has traditionally described the more tolerant end of the spectrum of possible “social enforcement”, not the absence of such enforcement - the problem is that the group that wants religious rights for society doesn’t want marriage rights for others in society, and the group that wants abortion rights in society doesn’t want gun rights for others in society. And so on.

So the question is whether to have a society where we generally allow people to do things we don’t like, as the price of being allowed to do the things we do like, or a society that prevents us doing what we want as the price of preventing others doing things we don’t like. Or, you know, each side trying to get freedom for the things they care about but trying to ban the things they dislike?

There is an obvious analogy with religion and religious freedom that I think the US constitution and bill of rights handled very effectively (compared to most other countries) at the “live and let live” end of the spectrum, maybe as a society we might want to see if the same principles might work more broadly?
These were installed in grad student offices, and as far as I can tell not in classroom spaces

It’s equivalent to your employer installing monitoring devices in your assigned desk and saying “trust us, we’ll anonymize the data”. And the administration got caught lying about submitting to the institutional review board
I can see the future becoming more analog than it is digital, only for specific groups of people in proportions that vary region-by-region.

There could be cultural enclaves that will only find community online, and conversely, enclaves who will find community in person. I reckon that whether a group is on either side of this spectrum that I’m imagining will be determined by acceptance, agency, freedom to operate, etc. within the constructs of their core values.

With community will come the utilities that facilitate its success. I’m not talking about stereotypical “Luddite” or “Amish” like scenarios, but something not too far off to degrees that will vary from culture to culture, region to region, etc.

TLDR: people are going to “migrate from Twitter to Mastodon” in real life soon.
I’ve also thought about this issue a lot.

> in a very small way

Financially it is certainly a small way for me, as I made a conscious choice to not depend on content creation or OSS dev as primary revenue streams and (while I can’t say the same about future generations) I’m somewhat sure in my work I won’t be replaced by an OpenAI product within the years I have left.

However, I have gotten where I am in many respects thanks to countless people who shared information in an open way—and some of those people either made living from ads/donation buttons/upsells or enjoyed knowing that somebody appreciates the work they do, maybe even writes them about it, etc. All of those incentives depend on people visiting their web property, and all of those incentives are being taken away.

(It’s adjacent but slightly different than the plight of illustrators or writers some of whom justifiably feel as if they dug their jobs’ graves by doing what they love in the open. Having a few close friends in art space, I feel ashamed for the bait-and-switch that people in ‘my’ industry have served them.)

> I'm not happy about this. But I also don't think it's possible to build tools that are this powerful without massive amounts of training data that have been gathered without consent.

Attribution would solve part of the abovementioned issues, and intuitively it seems trivial—some extra layers that let the network reflect on where it might’ve gotten the inspiration for this or that wouldn’t require any true “understanding” by ML (which like you I consider an oxymoron), and surely the investment they raised or profits they make could handle it. Call me a cynic but I suspect they intentionally don’t make this a priority.

> I’m most definitely not a vegan

So far as meat-eating is legal, I’m not a fan of this analogy. While I know for a fact that many people would find this useful, “whether to respect IP or not” is just not up to personal choice—IMO the only factor that makes ChatGPT’s a slightly vague issue (as in “not definitely illegal but still ethically dubious”), like SD’s, is that IIRC the model is supposed to be open to all for private use.
I think many of us who work in tech eventually come to the same conclusions as the author because we are more likely to see technology for what it is, rather than a social norm.

This is apparent in how many of us have ditched Facebook, or who leave our phones at home (or turn them off) during concerts, social events, and outdoor recreation activities to ensure we enjoy the moment. Personally speaking, I find I have better human connections today as a result.
Easy fix. Prompt:

Write an efficient, not brute force, program that solves the following problem: suppose we have two unknown quantities x and y. If three time x plus two times y is twenty, and 2 times x plus three time y is ten, what are x and y?

Output:

One way to solve this problem efficiently is to use the method of elimination. We can set up a system of equations as follows:

3x + 2y = 20
2x + 3y = 10

We can then multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 3, to get:

6x + 4y = 40
6x + 9y = 30

We can then subtract the second equation from the first equation, to get:

-5y = 10
y = -2

We can then substitute this value of y into one of the original equations (for example, the first one), to get:

3x + 2(-2) = 20
3x - 4 = 20
3x = 24
x = 8

Therefore, the values of x and y are x = 8 and y = -2.

The 1979 Iranian revolution was the pendulum swinging back hard the other way.

There's nothing good to say about the 1953 coup - but in no sense was the 1979 revolution a "swing back the other way", let alone a hard swing. If anything it was a swing sideways, to a different (and in the view of many people I know from that beautiful country, substantially worse) form of dictatorship.
Nothing. Do nothing. Bore yourself out of your mind. Resist wanting to do anything useful or productive. Look, listen and smell your surroundings. Remind yourself what it means to be alive. You now have time to gaze what the sky looks like again, or appreciate how nice your floors or walls are. Do this until you
genuinely want to do something again.

> literally any other text editor

Have you tried literally every other text editor?

I switched from Vim. In Emacs, I can inline previews of LaTeX formulas in the same buffer as the one that I am editing. This is possible because Emacs has a GUI. Vim cannot do this because it runs in the terminal, and it also doesn’t seem possible to do this in gVim.

Meanwhile Emacs implements Vim’s modal editing through evil mode. So for this use case, Emacs seems to be strictly better than Vim.

The Disappearing Computer (2017)
What do you mean by "better"? Planes are faster and more convenient, but they are polluting more, which has long term negative impact. If you want to know what is "better", you need to put everything in the balance. And the weight of each thing will also depend on subjective opinion (is it better to see 5 old people die 5 year earlier than otherwise or see 10% less investment from foreign investors?).

Also, this should not be decided by the "market", because the market is crap as evaluating mid- or long-term consequences.

I’m interested in the mechanics, I guess, ‘mechanism’ of engagement for rewatching. Yes, scarcity in the ‘ol days. Today, social media distributed lists. And, as suggested a social experience/event.

I’m not looking for a technological solution, but trying to understand the psychological mechanics of rewatching for entertainment, nostalgia, joy, etc.

Maybe in the ‘ol days the magic of rewatching was forced by scarcity. How does one come to multiple, annual, rewatching without this mechanism?

I commented elsewhere that rereading a book can be compared to revisiting a certain landscape. After a wery long time I am rereading "A Study In Scarlet", the very first Sherlock Holmes story. Just from the first few chapters some things I have not noticed or perhaps forgot:

* Watson is an Afghanistan veteran

* The London borough of Holborn is referred to as "the Holborn" (no idea why)

* Watson and Holmes are flatmates, they share an apartment as they can't afford to live solo - some things don't change.

* The word "ejaculate" did some cultural traveling over the years.

My go-to topic to test it with is talking about characters in the movie Hackers. I noticed in someone else’s session that it would take their correction but still hang on to the incorrect contradictory belief. In my session it came up with a seeming rationalization. So I tested it just now, trying to provide the correct information and directly contradicting the incorrect information (x is A. x is not B). That helped, but eventually it just choked. It seems to be handwaving and guessing (bluffing, bullshitting) at the most likely and generic answers when it doesn’t know something.

I’m thinking ChatGPT is best used for generating ideas, not factual information.

The only options I know of are the remix stack above (you still have to do some extra plumbing), elixir/Phoenix (or other turbo links like options but most aren't fast enough). To do realtime updates natively you need to move to evented data front to back and that is a very big move away from models the way we normally think of them. Check out eventide or resolv.js.

Not OP, but the way i read their comment is the problems only become apparent in the long term.

When you do a cost to benefit analysis on china it always sounds great.

Yeah, you have to deal with a couple minor PR blunders since you are hiring slave labor, 2-3 weeks ARO boat time kinda sucks but they are fair trade offs for World class manufacturing for half the cost, and obscene payment terms since the CCP is involved in the deal making (120 days Payment terms on each milestone for CapEx is normal in china).

Only do you realise that you are manufacturing in a entirely foreign regime and that regime can do whatever it wants do you realise it's a problem. You are at their whim from a import/ export tax, wars (trade, economic and real), etc.

But all the benefits are real and easy to quanitify. The negatives are ethical and imagined until they are not.

I have been developing a hobby project (AI powered document search) for a few months and was in sore need of a frontend. My frontend development skills however are stuck in late 1990s and I have zero skill with anything but plain HTML and a little bit of JS. Several times I tried learning React, reading tutorials, watching videos, but the whole idea of it was very removed from how I learned to code, so I gave up every time.

Today, I asked ChatGPT to develop the React app for me. ChatGPT guided me through the entire process starting from installing npm and necessary dependencies. The commands it suggested sometimes didn't work but every time I just copy-pasted the resulting error message into ChatGPT and it offered a working solution. I gave it the example of JSON output from my API backend and it generated the search UI which, to my surprise, worked.

My wet dream for the past few months was to implement infinite scrolling for my search. Again, after hours of google searches, tutorials, etc. I just gave up every single time. Not today. I asked ChatGPT to add infinite scrolling to my app. It wasn't easy. It didn't produce a working app immediately, it took a couple hours of conversations: I had many questions how different parts of React worked, how to fix errors etc. etc. In the end however, I had my working search app, and with infinite scroll to boot!

I haven't done a single google search or consulted any external documentation to do it and I was able to progress faster than I have ever did before when learning a new thing. ChatGPT is, for all intents and purposes, magic.
This means knowing the error in advance so it's not really the same problem being solved by search engines exactly. It's just a method of retrieving things you already know and can reason it into the correct state.

I don't think it's that complicated. The output to any input is non deterministic. Some borderline queries will sometimes work other times get rejected.

I sincerely doubt they just nuked this query in 15 mins. Much more likely is that it had a 1 in 4 chance of succeeding originally, and now when you ran it, you hit the 3 in 4 case of rejection. Try running it again or in a new session.

It does go off the rails sometimes, but this is kind of correct. Prompt:

Write an efficient, not brute force, python program that solves the following problem: suppose we have two unknown quantities x and y. If three time x plus two times y is twenty, and 2 times x plus three time y is ten, what are x and y?

Output:

To solve this problem efficiently, we can use linear algebra. We can represent the equations as a system of linear equations, and then use matrix operations to solve for the unknown quantities x and y.

First, we can represent the equations as follows:

3x + 2y = 20
2x + 3y = 10

Next, we can put the equations in matrix form:

| 3 2 | | x | | 20 |
| 2 3 | * | y | = | 10 |

To solve for x and y, we can use the inverse of the matrix on the left side to eliminate the coefficients. The inverse of a matrix is denoted as A^-1, and is calculated as follows:

A^-1 = (1/det(A)) * adj(A)

Where det(A) is the determinant of the matrix A, and adj(A) is the adjugate matrix of A. The determinant of a 2x2 matrix is calculated as follows:

det(A) = a * d - b * c

Where a, b, c, and d are the elements of the matrix A:

| a b |
| c d |

The adjugate matrix of a 2x2 matrix is calculated as follows:

adj(A) = | d -b |
| -c a |

We can then calculate the inverse of the matrix on the left side of the equations, and use it to solve for x and y:

| 3 2 |^-1 1 | 3 -2 |
| 2 3 | ----- * | -2 3 | = (1/5) * | 3 -2 | = | 3/5 -2/5 |
|-2 3 | |-2/5 3/5 |

| 3/5 -2/5 | | x | | 20 |
|-2/5 3/5 | * | y | = | 10 |

We can then solve for x and y by multiplying the inverse matrix with the vector on the right side of the equations:

| 3/5 -2/5 | | 20 |
|-2/5 3/5 | * | 10 | = | 6 |
| 7 |

Therefore, the values of x and y are 6 and 7, respectively.

Here is the complete Python program to solve this problem using linear algebra:

Calculate the determinant of a 2x2 matrix
def determinant(a, b, c, d):
return a * d - b * c

Calculate the adjugate matrix of a 2x2 matrix
def adjugate(a, b, c, d):
return [[d, -b], [-c, a]]

Calculate the inverse of a 2x2 matrix
def inverse(a, b, c, d):
det = determinant(a, b, c, d)
adj = adjugate(a, b, c, d)
return [[adj[0][0] / det, adj[0][1] / det], [adj[1][0] / det, adj[1][1] / det]]

Solve the system of linear equations
def solve(a, b, c, d, e, f):
inv = inverse(a, b, c, d)
return [inv[0][0] * e

I think it's important to consider incentives. When you search for a topic that's controversial or political you will find lots of spam in Google. But in that case you understand that you need to approach the results with care and do your own research. GPT is the same here. You're not going to treat its answers about political topics as "the truth" - For these kind of topics GPT is actually quite good!

But scientific facts are a different story. Nobody has any incentive to claim that 1+2=4 or that some function in Python does X when it really does Y. So when you search for these kind of facts on Google you can pretty sure that you get correct answers, or at least someone trying to give you the best answer they can. But not so with GPT. It may give you incorrect answers even for these kind of facts if they are not within the reasoning ability / training data.
