> but all it does is regurgitate existing works

I am genuinely intrigued by this point of view and so would love to hear people who hold it's reasoning.

Over the last few days I've seen hundreds of poems and stories from ones about climate change in the style of a sonnet to peanut butter sandwiches getting stuck in toasters in the style of the bible. I even asked it to make a text adventure game for me to play where I could put in any instruction, leading to a unique series of events and narrative.

Is the claim that these were all simply copy and pastes of something on the internet in their entirety? And that as such the internet already seems to contain essentially every permutation of everything I could ask ChatGPT, as to me this sounds highly implausible.

If the claim is that whilst these are not direct copy pastes, it is essentially a remix of lots of different things people have said before on the internet repurposed to a different end, is that not literally just what language is? Humans use common sayings, idioms, slang and phrases all the time, never mind the 'tropes' and story lines that are reused constantly. Coders use common patterns and styles and copy from stackoverflow. In fact language literally only works because we all share it and share the meaning of it.

If we are saying that all ChatGPT does is remix existing language and phrases to a new purpose... to me we are saying ChatGPT does the same thing as humans.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Yes I do. Quite stupidly I went to too many all night/all day music festivals when I was in my early twenties and would hang out down by the stage. After one of the parties, I almost couldn't hear. It was as if I was submerged in a pool of water while trying to make out the sounds around me. Very weird.

Thankfully that passed and I can hear but the ensemble of differently pitched constant ringing ... can genuinely be a nightmare sometimes. As someone else stated, I cannot hear other people speak when there is background noise. I don't go to bars, concerts, or movies anymore (for almost two decades now). It sucks.

Talking about why I'm not hard at work... Nothing mentioned on the list motives me towards money at all. Just take a look of the photo of the house, I don't want to live in a place like that even if I have the money. And the motorbike? Dude, have you read the news about organ donations today?

The End Poem (https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/End_Poem) was the only text in the game that I completely read through. It rolls up, and I sat there read the entire thing. I'm the kind of guy who starts to load another game while the ending cut scene is still playing. GLaDOS starts to sing again? Time to load up Left 4 Dead and find a server. And yet, I read the entire End Poem of Minecraft.

That text makes me feel that somebody behind Minecraft actually cares, understands and put hopes in their game to make people inspired. It's kind sad that the truth comes up to be this.

There is a written contract. They agreed on the price on email and he then took the money.

Taurine cattle thrive in cold weather. They were domesticated from animals that lived in the forests of northern Europe. The reason they don't live in the arctic is there isn't enough grass there.

I didn't say it was easy, I said the difficulty (nearly impossible, according to you) was overstated. I also said there are circumstances where there isn't really anything the program can reasonably do other than terminate. However, there are other things it can do in other circumstances.

And the OS behavior has everything to do with it, that's the whole context of this discussion: Linux lying to programs about memory and having to deal with the consequences in a really dumb way.

Mine don't, at least they don't allocate a bunch of small shit from the OS all the time[0], that's slow. Again I suspect learned helplessness here: people have been doing it a certain way for so long they don't even consider alternatives.

I think this is a very important quote from the author:

So the fact that he kept the money does say that he agreed to write the piece for that amount of money, but it doesn't say anything about under which terms, and the terms is where they disagree. The money transfer says nothing about what rights do Mojang have over the piece and what rights the writer have over the piece.

When I need live chat support, it's because I've already exhausted the help center and can't find my answer elsewhere. I really do need to speak with a human.

Fortunately, many chatbots in my experience will indeed switch over to human support if I write "I want to speak with a human". I'm glad they take that into account.
Honestly? the main goal is surviving. 2022 fucked me so hard: my mental health was going downhill, my marriage is not in the best state, a war nearby, inflation, job issues, etc. I wasn't even recovering from 2021/2020. I really need a break.
It's not a fixed model. The point is you taught it to ChatGPT. It did not invent it.

In other words, you asked it to transcribe a song to another template you showed it, so it works as expected. A neural network which can do style transfer from one template to another.

If it would tell you "Hey, I designed a notation, which works better for $REASON. Can you give me feedback?", then this would be something notable.

Again, ChatGPT utilized the info you gave to it. So it was not novel to begin with.
This shouldn't even be necessary or even possible when it comes to science pretty much by definition.

Either you are able to provide the means to have someone independently verify something or you aren't. It should end there.
It's easy to confuse politeness with friendship if that's what you're seeking. It's a sad story, to me.

> having something go wrong in any number of regulated industries can be a 'news generating event'.

I did say that if you work in a tightly regulated industry, obviously stuff is different. This should be pointed out though! You can't give advice for the medical or financial sector to someone with a 15-person startup that builds low-stake products. It's just not going to be the right advice, as you well know security is a tradeoff. I guarantee that disabling root on dev computers is a huge productivity hit -- you need to be sure of the pros/cons of making that decision.

Maybe. Other languages also don't have consistency all the time in latin, so not sure if you need to force it.
I'm kind of confused by why and how trade-off alignment can be a goal setting exercise. Isn't this something that changes as the year progresses? Aren't project managers constantly negotiating these changes?

Is this the kind of solution a consultant comes up with because "teams actually communicating effectively outside a managed workshop" isn't a marketable silver bullet?

I guess the key take away is it's an easy pitfall to make team OKRs that ignore cross team dependencies. If your team expects deliverables from another team, it can be useful to get that reflected in OKRs. To that end... actually talk to teams your team depends on and figure out if your dependencies are a priority!

Seems like basic stuff though.
I'm definitely not a plumber but I know toilets with a rather slow flush which probably wouldn't throw much plume - although that might be a different design than the US ones and require wider drain pipes.
When I was working for the US government we had to obey rules against shipping "freeware," which RHEL wasn't because we payed for it. But it was cheaper and easier to do most of our development on CentOS systems and because the software was the same we weren't worried about compatibility issues.
To keep the dog & cat from drinking out of it. Very unpopular with the quadrupeds & half of the bipeds.

The growth that occurs on the underside of the lid makes for a good reminder that cleaning the toilet is (over-)due.

That makes no sense. If 25 random assholes can choose to remake the government, that'll keep happening until one group of them makes it illegal.

That story sounds way worse. Mick Gordon seemed to understand the business side better than the people at Id he was talking to. That's more of a sad story of a guy being treated poorly by an incompetent/malicious company steamrolling over him, throwing him under the bus, refusing to listen to reason, and doubling down every step of the way with no justice in sight.

Julian's story is more a story of a misunderstood artist caring more about the art than the money, mistaking contract work for friendship, struggling with the consequences, hating himself for it, and finally coming to terms with it.
> nobody asked questions from where it's actually coming from

What do you mean? The public story around FTX, and what they said when you asked them, was that the money was coming from charging fees on trading, which was plausible given the level of trading and the size of their fees. That the condemnation didn't start until it turned out that SBF and FTX were actually doing other things and lying to everyone is not surprising?
Presumably yes, for both of the same reasons, or at least the first one.

No, I don't, and I don't think I've suffered any negative consequences. But I've also never lived in a place that had the toilet placed in the bathroom. I guess if I were flushing the toilet next to my sink and my toothbrush, I might think differently about it.

I don't get the stigma explained in the article, about men with lower education degrees.

I've come to associate engineers and boring persons. Except IT security graduates who are full of themselves, and more irritating than boring.
How can a society look up at educated person ?! Most of them are just good at math and so boring !

(I began to do non-IT engineering, tried IT security, and then swerved into devops / automation to work with developers, who are often nicer)

Also, you're not always better paid when you're educated.
You're better paid before all charges. But if you need to live in a large city far away, your rent will increase. You will also have to pay to go back to your hometown and see friends and relatives.
Your large city will be soulless, instead of your charming hometown, so you'll have to pay to escape and travel around.
And lastly, you'll be sad and single after devoting yourself to uni, and having your soul crushed by it. In the meantime, all your friends will be in a couple, make a family, and their rent will be shared with their husband / wife.

Being educated just makes you sad and single :/

The best position would be to work as a car or bike mechanics or something like that, IMO
And don't care about social status. People with a higher social status are just devoted to it, they're not happier.
FTX had a pretty solid reputation and plenty of legitimate investors like the Ontario Teachers Pension Fund. Plenty of positive reputation signals.

It's not like it was some obviously shady businessman making political donations or something.

Yeah, the materials are great -in particular the old growth wood which simply isn’t available today. There’s also a good chance the home design is completely unique since home building by and large was done very differently pre-1940s. So a neighborhood of them looks awesome compared to one where everything went up in the post-war era.

Just compare a period revival built in 1915 to one from 1970. It probably isn’t even close which one not only looks better but also uses the right lines, moldings, etc. I think there was simply a better understanding by architects about what details a particular style of home should and should not have.

But yes a well constructed modern home is probably better in most ways than an old home. Better waterproofed, more efficient, engineered better, etc. If built well which I’d argue most modern homes aren’t unfortunately. But I have seen modern homes framed out entirely in engineered wood, have advanced sheathing and waterproofing and high-end siding. Will last many generations.

Lifelong tinnitus here.

Doing all of the followings has helped me greatly:

* Brownian noise generator, as needed

* cold compress on forehead as needed

* avoidance of large number of Rx (ototoxic)

* no tobacco-derivatives

* no cannibus (did not discern between THC or CBD (sp?)

* no overeating

All those are very noticeable in form of tinnitus when violated. But it took a very long time to discover what works and what doesn't. Self-awareness of all those stimulus is required to identify and it gets easier once self-trained to recognize association between your own action and tinnitus. Most are identifiable within 30 minutes, some Rx takes 5-7 days to notice).

At age of 48, I lost 85% of hearing within 30 minutes of taking one dosage of Zyban (Wellbutrin-class) Rx. Filed a report with FDA. Warning sheet made no mention of this.

Cochlear implant helps a lot with reducing (built-in Brownian noise generator) as well as restoring my hearing to almost better than avg. human. But it took away my natural sound spectrum (think 32 distinctively-sieved equalizer bars, or crescendo sounds jumpy) in favor of huge dB increase.

Edit: am sedentary, my BMI is 29. Relatively stress-free (might explains less need for exercise there but do do notice Yoga helps a little).

Listened to music that has varied rhythms (Jazz, classical, low-bass beats) but that music selection has noticeably becomes no longer the requirement for tinnitus reduction once my list above were maintained. (Derivative of Brownian noise, panacea?). I now enjoy nearly all music variety (metal opera, anyone?)

aspirin is noticeable but preferred over Tylenol (liver protection). And a light social drinker.

Tinnitus is largely gone but every now and then some new act such as eating enjoyable jalapeño would bring it back with a vengeance or a nasty bout of Staph-B (high temperature).

I only wished I was told of all this ahead of time because life quality has improved greatly overall with not just better in terms of avoiding tinnitus-induced depression but oral communication has improved.

Ask your medical professional to add to your medical record the anti-Ototoxic list as part of your known allergies to avoid hearing loss (as well as tinnitus):

Good luck with your self-awareness training.
I've had it for almost 30 years, until about a year ago due to some crazy amount of stress it became so heavy that I finally did something about it. What ultimately helped and brought lasting relief were a few sessions with a cranial osteopathic therapist. Highly recommended!
There is a difference between a a random person calling bullshit on a topic on which they're entirely uninformed in and a person which has studied the topic for years.

The people that complain about scientific findings being held in to high esteem usually have no clue about the topic they're talking about and are petulant that their uninformed opinion based on their feelings isn't taken seriously.
I love how you managed to pivot from soil quality to tech. It seems an innocent comparison at first but then you can't help yourself by devoling into complaining about what you feel are issues in modernsoftware development.

I would prefer to use RedHat based distros but their lack of official non free repos annoy me - I don’t want to add a community repo, I want packages maintained by trusted core engineers. Sure the community repos probably have that, but I last I checked I couldn’t find any assurance on the security of the community repos. SBOMs don’t mean shit if you’re installing stuff from random no-assurance locations.
I can confirm that - at least in my experience - FAQ's are pre-made (and never or rarely updated), when a new service/site/whatever starts, it is logically nonsense that there is even one FAQ.

In theory everything should be clear from the info/documentation/manual, and when it is not so (as it often happens) and something is actually frequently asked, not only an entry in the FAQ list should be added (together with its FGA[0]) but the sheer fact that it is frequently asked should mean that the topic is not clear enough in the info/docs/etc and these should also actually be corrected/updated.

As a "disciplined" user (who actually did read both the FAQ's and the documentation) when you (manage to) contact (via mail/chat or phone) the assistance with a question/doubt there are usually three possibilities:

1) the assistant knows less than you on the topic and cannot answer properly

2) the assistant is competent and manages to answer your question, though with some difficulty (you made an original question)

3) the assistant is competent and answers your question easily because it has already been answered by him/her tens or hundreds of times (your question was not so original but never made it to the published FAQ's)

#3 is the clear sign of a failure in the way FAQ's are managed.

Yeah. The point is that you're a somewhat technical person to manage to do that.
