OpenAI has 3 unique advantages that others don't.

Namely : Sam Altman, Microsoft and self-fulfilling prophecies.

1. Sam Altman - OpenAI does relationships like no other company. They are getting doors opened to data that others (even big companies) simply do not have access to. having Altman at the helm has a lot to do with it. He is also the reason OpenAI is arguably second only to Tesla in terms of being a self-marketing behemoth with no real marketing budget. The super-fans do all the talking for you.

2. Microsoft - Whatever the fine-print of their relationship is, despite not owning OpenAI, Microsoft is throwing its entire weight behind them. This means that the entities who can compete on compute and endless money supply are Google and Amazon. The fact that Microsoft obscures its relationship with OpenAI, also means that OpenAI gets to move with the sort of agility and goodwill, that something branded MSFT/AMZN/GOOG simply cannot.

3. Self-fulfilling prophecies - These models get better with human in the loop (HITL) feedback. OpenAI is the one getting the most human in the loop feedback due to being first movers and that lets them make better models. The better models mean that users keep coming back to OpenAI to give more HITL feedback.

(This is more so true with NLP than Vision. Vision has a healthy set of competitors across the board)

Ugh, i got a bit of pushback on supporting dark mode in my native app, luckily i was starting from scratch and once you show you can pretty much do it by setting up assets correctly and that you can switch modes from the quick menu to test, noone even thinks about it anymore.

Yeah, because that's more reliable data.
Depends on the size of your codebase and how many people work on it. Once you have 20 years of code written full time by 200 developers in your monolith, finding the constants file out of 400 different subsystem's constant files for a given subsystem that you've never seen before can become a legitimate and challenging pain.
I have had similar experiences on several decent sized mobile projects.

The idea of a single code-base to rule them all is very seductive.

The reality, when you get to UI and hardware issues, is when you begin to get frustrated.

If your app doesn't need perfect hardware coverage, great hardware sub-system coverage (cameras in particular), and you have some cohesive UI design that won't irk people on seperate platforms ... then go ahead, React Native, or ionic, or flutter, or plenty of frameworks will work for you.

Otherwise, I think it is better to just bite the bullet and run two separate code-bases with pretty tight project managment to keep them synced.
Kotlin is so close on so many things, but then keeps messing up.

arrayOf(1, 2, 3) - why not [1,2,3]?

These are all solved problems. Why would they make up some harshly suboptimal syntax?

>> We're probably just nit-picking over definitions but a career

No, that's fair. Like "carpenter" and "programmer" are both very broad professions of course. I think there's something about the way various industries get hit by down turns more or less visibly (like when construction goes down it feels like it's everybody, and so every framer, every concrete layer) that creates an (often false to be sure) sense of narrowness.

But also Plumber, Electrician, Carpenter, etc. are very broad trades and even though articles get written using those words because everyone knows what they do, the articles are often really talking about the lack of elevator technicians, crane operators, industrial HVAC, PLC programmers, train conductors, air traffic controllers those more niche trades. A lot of machine operators end up so niche that their current company is the only one in a state that could employ them. My sister makes M&Ms, other than company policies about like sanitation she'd be no better than a new hire on the Twix line.

I don't agree with that reasoning, even with your premises. Willpower could be a skill, but some people could learn it better than others because of innate ability. Piano is a skill, but some people learn it much better than others.

None of the current crop of big companies are being led by founder-CEOs - except for Meta. They're all being led by manager-CEOs.

Manager-CEOs, historically, don't have the stakes, the vision, or the sheer pull to cannibalize $100B existing business lines with a brand new, untested product.

Big Tech's bigness will be its biggest liability. A chatGPT-like tool, for instance, competes against Google's search products. And Google can't monetize it with 10+ ads on every page.

Google et al will dawdle and hem and haw and watch nimbler competitors take away market share. Tale as old as time.

My 7 year old routinely tells me he is going to be a YouTuber. I routinely remind him about power law distributions. So far he has made 2 YouTube channels with a handful of videos each and even less subscribers. I can't recall if it was for his 6th or 7th birthday but he had been talking a lot about wanting his own "merch", so I asked him what kind of design would he put on his "merch" and he told me what he wanted. I whipped one up on a t-shirt making site and got it for him for his birthday. He still wears it and still refers to it as his "merch".

I think it's mostly harmless and of course most kids will grow out of it. It's definitely like wanting to be a rockstar, but I think the scale is larger and the barrier to entry so much lower that they seem much more convinced it's actually a viable option than what I thought being a rockstar was when I was a kid.

My guess is for many of them it will be a second "wait, Santa isn't real?" moment when they get a bit older and realize that power law distributions are a thing and that's just how it is. Followed by fun times reminiscing about it with each other as adults.
Hey! I'd naturally recommend SignalWire (as one of the founders over there.)

Have any of these companies (meta, google, etc) actually had to PAY any of these fines? I hear about them getting the fines, but usually they can weasel out of them or just delay them indefinitely.
Lua also allows you to choose the string delimiter. If your string contains "]]" you can delimit it with [=[ or [==[ instead. Any number of "=" so long as the opening and closing delimiters match.

I've got a friend who went into the trades instead of going to university, he (correctly) recognised that what he was passionate about wouldn't even pay for the degree (composing music) so he figured he'd do it on the side and do a trade to earn a living. Unfortunately due to a workplace accident he cut the tendons in his wrist with a box cutter, which means he can't now play the piano for any reasonable amount of time. So i guess it's less "the body wears out" but more "you accumulate a lot of small injuries that eventually prevent you from perfoming your trade"

It's hardly surprising that a 5 minute job that requires travel to and from the customer site on your own dime costs enough to cover their travel time & costs; 20 years ago they had to read a map, plan a route to their jobs for the day, drive to and from the site.

Sama is an Entrepreneur. Most major stable companies are typically run by the MBA types, Execs etc who won't be taking any major risks. Risking their reputation, rocking the boat aka Status Quo etc. If the risk doesn't pay off they are screwed. If they maintain the status quo it will take a long time before consequences catch up.

That's why Elon, Zuck, Steve Jobs etc make major singular decisions without much bureaucracy standing in their way.
> They also may already have pre-arranged agreements and relationships with the big companies that represent the company you are suing to essentially pay you as little as possible.

This is illegal, but I imagine I could see something like this happening naturally and cynically... you get similar effects with realtors and recruiters.

Still, there's plenty that are honestly and earnestly do their job for the most part. Often times these people can make deals happen. Taking a relatively basic deal instead of going to trial is often a good call.

If he knows he can get something pretty decent and you have to risk $30K+ for a long shot chance.

And error unions with corresponding semantics. And explicit casting requirements. And @TypeInfo. And no hidden allocations. And probably like 4 or 5 other things I'm not thinking of right now.
More or less, yes. Because you have more opportunity to maintain state locally on a mobile app (which isn't done as much in browsers), you will see more business logic. But it's largely very similar to web dev. Again though: depends on what you're building and how much you need a remote backend.
Agree with kebab-case.

> Most languages have multiline literals, but what makes the Lua version great is that the beginning and ending marks are different characters. This solves the infuriating “unnestable quotes” problem string literals have, and you don’t have to escape all your literal \s.

That paragraph also uses “nestable marks”.

>Just like crashing your car isn't the same thing as wearing it out.

Not taking precautions, for instance, when driving over potholes can wear certain facets of the car down without doing significant immediate damage, the same way that taking certain falls or hits can wear a body down. You don't need a crash.
Out of interest, how often do you do this, and what are the semantics of the numbers you're grepping for? I literally can't remember a time I've ever tried to grep for a number.
Perhaps.

But the relevant point here is that California has long had state law banning most forms of non-compete clauses in employment contracts. It's considered to be one of the strengths of Silicon Valley and other California industries -- talent can move from established company to established company, or established company to startup.
Microsoft's willingness to run ChatGPT at a 6 figure loss daily is a strong signal of the value OpenAI's researchers place on RLHF to make the next leap -- both in raw capabilities and alignment. If they're proven correct, which it's likely they are, then the first mover advantage runs unusually deep, given that the feedback-from-usage flywheel is integral to the core tech. Google could, of course, deploy more broadly overnight if they chose, but their positioning seems to indicate more interest in solving hard science problems with AI than with building human-aligned productivity tools and assistants. The market is broad enough for both, and the latter more readily aligns with Microsoft's business, so I expect the trends to continue. No one aside from Google stands a chance at making up OpenAI's lead.

I'm sorry that you're going through this. Unfortunately, the system is rigged against you, even if you feel like you have been rehabilitated, done your time in prison, and paid your dues.

With that in mind, you may have to change careers, you're very fortunate that you're not still locked up, or civilly committed.. which happens quite a bit in TX. I'm not sure where in the USA you're located.. but have you considered talking to your local workforce commission? you may need to become a day laborer, a welder, and take on some dirty jobs, but you're not alone.. there are plenty of SO s that are gainfully employed.. they may not have the obligations you have, but they're making do. One of the hardest things for you will be the transition from white collar to blue collar.. it can be done.

And quit that crap about dying.. if you really mean it when you say you want to provide for your children, do it.. where there is a will, there is a way.. and all those other cliches.

It's not over for you just yet.
Congratulations on launching! I love the combination of an app coupled with physical books. It really demonstrates your understanding of your customers.

* I would love to know more about your phonics instruction. From what I can see, Ello embeds the instruction into the "help the child sound out the words" component. Is that correct or is more systematic instruction provided?

* How do you help children overcome the seemingly maddening inconsistency of the English language? For example, the long a sound can correspond to the a, ai, eigh, aigh, ay, er (RP), et, ei, au, a_e, ea, and ey graphemes.

* Does your speech recognition system understand at the phoneme level?

BTW, I would love to connect. I am an independent educational researcher and early literacy edtech founder. My background is big tech (principal engineer at a FAANG company) and am now navigating the treacherous waters of building an audience, securing funding, bringing in experts, etc.
