This is day one.

You're seeing the results of amateurs adapting unspecialized tools. They're using minimal effort and still deriving head turning results.

A great analogy might be all the folks making Geocities websites back in '99. Look at how far we've come from that. Can you even fathom where we'll be in five years? (Or even just this fall, given the pace of research and new startups optimizing models/workflows?)

These tools are going to be specially purposed for every domain soon. VC is going to pour into every possible optimization niche, and talented teams will build specially purposed tools that put entire careers on easy mode.

This is good. We shouldn't want to write HTML any more than we should want to churn butter.

The job of designer will change to incorporate the new workflows. But everything else will also change. Websites of 2000-2020 will look as dated as magazine ads. New websites will be rich and interactive as never before.

This is the biggest boom and shakeup of our industry perhaps ever. Get excited by the opportunities. You're not going to have to work like a caveman designer anymore. You'll be a year 2080 designer before the decade ends.

Agreed it doesn't completely invalidate it as a concept, but Elon turning the highest profile somewhat reliable implementation of an authenticity badge into a culture war artifact doesn't exactly bode well for it being a social media must-pay-for. The fact Facebook once aspired to be the platform where everyone used their real name and now can't be bothered to deactivate friendspamming sexbots without most users caring suggests that ordinary people won't exactly be queueing up to pay them $144 per annum because of their inherent trustworthiness as a verifier either.

It'd probably work a bit on LinkedIn because of the nature of the user base and lots of people already expensing Premium accounts, but funnily enough I'm not sure LinkedIn actually has that much of a fake account problem...

Public betas are usually only a day or two behind the developer beta. This just seems common sense; let developers test it for any major issues on a development device before letting Joe Sixpack install it on his daily driver.

If you need the original two comments paraphrased without the hyperbolics:

"This example shows that trans people are so powerful that even if you're saying something relatively harmless (the specific joke) on a niche platform (the specific Twitch channel) they will punish you for that."

"That's not true. There are major media companies amplifying far more hateful voices with no consequences. Politicians whom are famously dependent on populism, have actually experienced positive outcomes from attacking that group of people."
I look forward to lab grown human meat but I imagine the impending legal battles over it put it many years off
I disagree with this. If the only surface area of the underlying transport that the implementation uses is Read() and Write(), then it should be an io.Reader and an io.Writer. If it wants to mess around with read/write deadlines, then you'd have to bring in net.Conn, but it doesn't, so don't.

If you're worried about someone using bytes.Buffer as their transport layer, net.Conn doesn't fix that; there is net.Pipe. (It's not buffered, though.)
Meta-ChatGPT's loss function optimises for ChatGPT generating training data that maximises the shittyness of Google's LLM.
Surprisingly, they are using the term correctly. Although it seems that the main point of the post was to plug their "Colossal AI" framework but if you do an in-page search for "Low-cost replication of ChatGPT" subheading midway in the article they do claim to replicate RLHF thingy fully whatever it might be. Interestingly, they also suggest that it would work with both BLOOM and OPT meaning that you can potentially make things like ChatBLOOM and ChatOPT (even on a consumer grade GPU). Lack of demo doesn't inspire too much confidence though.
You're welcome! I dislike the tool for this reason - it changes too much. Though I've found that the guidelines are very good for my sites.

PS I get 100 consistently for your home page, so maybe you have an optimization there that can be replicated?
Hard to avoid when anything that's not overtly right-wing is included in the umbrella of "liberal", as tends to happen in the US, where a sort of ideological dithering renders everything in 1-bit color.

Some companies who do that have both salaried and overtime eligible hourly employees who are otherwise in the same type of position. Or they did at different points in time.

So the meaning of saying that it is not counting hours is as clear as mud.

It also extends to more than one industry. Not just, say, corporate litigation.
Think about what this project really is too.

I disagree wholly with the “revenue is easy, profit is harder” idea. I suppose it is tautologically true since profitable ventures are a subset of ones which generate revenue, so more businesses generate revenue than generate profits, thus it is is “easier”. However, that is only at the present instant. That statement does not factor in all the companies that generated only revenue and no profit and are now extinct. When considering these, it is vastly easier to be profitable than to have revenue.

Without infusions of external capital it is literally impossible to generate revenue without profit for any period longer than one can sustain their losses. Isn’t it way easier to focus on businesses that do this, that meet a demand people have, and are thus profitable? Instead, investments are made in areas where demand has to be induced via advertising spend, expenses have to be reduced by relying on the ability to “rapidly scale”, and the business has to sap round after round of investor capital at increasingly higher and increasingly more ridiculous valuations with the hopes that it can weather that storm.

When considering the above, it seems to me that we are systematically mis-allocating capital to bad investments. As the saying goes, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. You can see people behaving in accordance with this during high-risk periods, e.g. COVID, when capital shifted toward durable goods and physical assets (pre QE infinity). But for some reason, when the risk is not literally right in front of investors, they do not see it. That risk, the integral of which increases over larger periods of time, eats away at the growth rates of companies. I suspect risk would spoil the math that makes a lot of the high-growth companies worth anything, if it were properly accounted for. Not to mention, negative externalities are unknown and thus largely ignored in startups, and thus cannot be accounted for.
I understand that we can only talk bad about white people, and good about black people, but articles like this tend to ignore that because of the current political optics, police tend to only restrain black people that are extremely violent. Police essentially need unsurmountable social proof before they take action. Every other black suspect gets a free pass (see any of the daily looting videos). Meanwhile non-violent white people are restrained at a much higher rate but since they tend to comply there are fewer bad outcomes.
> One of my finance professors mentioned that ~70% of business fail in their first two years, and ~90% of those failures are purely due to a lack of working capital, not due to any fundamental flaw in the business plan.

Having seen my share of failed businesses - I'm very skeptical of these numbers.

People do that because they don't understand how to define and use opaque pointers.

Also if someone would put the C standards committee on an ice flow and replace them with people willing to add first class types and tagged unions to C that would be nice.

>Can someone tell me what the hell they use ChatGPT for?

Although it's free, I pay $20 for pro version ($240 per year) plus taxes, and use it daily. I get a lot of benefits from using it.

I use it to learn about things, solve problems, suggest approaches, critique my own proposals and approaches, generate code scaffolding and smaller code solutions, help me draft emails of all kinds, etc. I find it highly useful in a variety of contexts. You can give it obfuscated impossible code and it can analyze it and tell you what it does in seconds: https://imgur.com/a/m40TR4d (someone else's result)

It can help you find bugs and mistakes in your own code.

You can also ask it to tell you about a subject and it can give you a summary. Just tell it what you want and it'll do its best.

What areas did you use it where you got wrong results for basic things, to the point where you don't find it useful? Its major limitations are around logical numeracy (it gets numbers wrong) and lack of a visual cortex, which means you can't use it for graphics code or to write you visually correct solutions. Also, it doesn't speak foreign languages perfectly, it makes some grammatical mistakes.

I asked chatgpt about what people use it for and it gave these answers: https://imgur.com/a/qzUF5Ya

It mentions that it can generate a hypothesis. So a scientist can absolutely use it to make some suggestions, for example try "Generate five hypotheses a chemist might test as part of an undergraduate study program" - here are some examples: https://imgur.com/a/hOtGgKN

I'm no chemist, but those seem fine for me as undergraduate lab work tests. It's probably not going to get you a Ph.D. but often you don't need one, just a few quick brainstorming suggestions.

Some people have it plan all their meals and create recipes for them, which they then cook and eat. There are thousands of recipe sites, the reason people use ChatGPT is because they can just describe what they want, what they have, and have it come up with its own recipes based on what is available and can be purchased.

Just describe what you need and what you want it to do and it does a good job for you on all sorts of tasks.
Theoretically, one could compile whisper.cpp to run in the browser using emscripten, maybe made faster with webgl...

I think this would be quite a heavy page load time for a website, but if the model file gets cached, and the user has a decent CPU/GPU, it... could work?
Eh, using your line of thought in a reductionist manner would simply lead to "it was a mistake to crawl down from the trees".

Humans change technology, technology changes humans. It is a tale older than civilization.

Also, many people would consider racing a car a form of art in itself. Same with riding horses that cars caused the general replacement of.

My favourite piece of writing about engineering management, bizarrely, is this: The Eleven Laws of Showrunning http://okbjgm.weebly.com/uploads/3/1/5/0/31506003/11_laws_of...

It's about running a TV show - which has to be one of the most challenging management exercises out there: you have a limited budget, a hard deadline, activist investors ("the network"), you need to recruit 100+ different people in a very short amount of time... and you're also expected to write the first and last episode of the series too!

The reason this document is relevant here is that the it talks about the importance of having a clear vision. If you can express a clear vision for the show, you can then distribute that vision amongst your lieutenants - who are then empowered to go and make good decisions without you having to micromanage every step.

To my mind, this is the value of strategy and vision documents: they're about helping people in your organization make good decisions independently of top-level leadership.
I feel you! Especially when working with larger more complex projects, Figma files and code tend to diverge. For me the code is the source of truth and Figma a wished future state. I’d love to have a tool, where I can “reimport” code and work out ideas in Figma and the implement and iterate. What I do often now is design ideas I’m Figma and very early on work with code while strictly thinking in components.
I’m always looking to see how we can improve things. Appreciate your feedback! Let me know if you have any other questions in the future.
I was talking about the situation where you have to work on an existing codebase not where you start a Python project by yourself.

> Can someone tell me what the hell they use ChatGPT for?

I play DnD with my friends and I’m usually the dungeon master. I use ChatGPT to help me world build, and flesh out details.

Don’t imagine asking ChatGPT what should happen in the next session. More like asking for options for the name and title of a non-player character. Then it writes options, I twist them up, combine them and select the one I like the best.

I can even ask more complicated questions like “what was so and so’s first innovation and how did it help their village? Provide 5 options” and then chatgpt goes and does that. Maybe I like one, and then that is canon from then on, or maybe while I am reading them I get an even better idea.

Basically I use it as a bicycle for my creativity. And in that use case I care 0% if what it says is true, much more that it comes up with wild things. It also doesn’t have to be totally consistent, since what it outputs is just a first step in an editing process.

For example I did know that one of the main cities in my world have grown from a sleepy village into a bustling university town because two wizzards started a friendly competition between them. And then with the help of ChatGPT I have iteratively expanded that core idea into this backstory of the city: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19dea6p9WuLcZIRVX2ecYMw8W...
true but there's a ton of people I know who are looking for help at the... zero.five stage, and there isn't a good way for them to get in touch with people who are maybe between zero.six-one, does that make sense?
The Unix answer was to read the man page. The Debian answer (since I see `apt`) is `dpkg-query -L libopencv-dev | grep /pkgconfig/`

F360 makes me so sad. I'd gladly pay for it, but I make like 2 or 3 models as a hobbyist per year and their cheapest plan is hundreds of dollars per year. I wish there was something in between that unlocked the full functionality. Or at least multi-page-PDF support.
Highly agree with this. I was gifted an electric pressure cooker recently, and it has been a revelation for home stock making. It makes truly excellent stock in around 60-90 minutes all up.

If you're willing to wait the extra half hour for a slow pressure release, then you get a beautiful super-clear consommé-style stock because the pressurized environment means the liquid never boils. I've never achieved that in a stock pot, even if i'm being finicky about temperature control.
It's understandable why you'd think this but it seems either didn't read much or were selective about her bio. Briefly:

* After spending time in research on parapsychology and the paranormal,[5] her attitude towards the field moved from belief to scepticism.[6][7] In 1987, Blackmore wrote that she had an out-of-body experience shortly after she began running the Oxford University Society for Psychical Research (OUSPR):[8][9]

"Within a few weeks I had not only learned a lot about the occult and the paranormal, but I had an experience that was to have a lasting effect on me—an out-of-body experience (OBE). It happened while I was wide awake, sitting talking to friends. It lasted about three hours and included everything from a typical "astral projection," complete with a silver cord and duplicate body, to free-floating flying, and finally to a mystical experience. It was clear to me that the doctrine of astral projection, with its astral bodies floating about on astral planes, was intellectually unsatisfactory. But to dismiss the experience as "just imagination" would be impossible without being dishonest about how it had felt at the time. It had felt quite real. Everything looked clear and vivid, and I was able to think and speak quite clearly."

In a New Scientist article in 2000, she again wrote of this:

"It was just over thirty years ago that I had the dramatic out-of-body experience that convinced me of the reality of psychic phenomena and launched me on a crusade to show those closed-minded scientists that consciousness could reach beyond the body and that death was not the end. Just a few years of careful experiments changed all that. I found no psychic phenomena—only wishful thinking, self-deception, experimental error and, occasionally, fraud. I became a sceptic.[10][11]"

* She is a Fellow of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry (formerly CSICOP)[12] and in 1991, was awarded the CSICOP Distinguished Skeptic Award.[4]

* Susan Blackmore has made contributions to the field of memetics.[19] The term meme was coined by Richard Dawkins in his 1976 book The Selfish Gene. In his foreword to Blackmore's book The Meme Machine (1999), Dawkins said, "Any theory deserves to be given its best shot, and that is what Susan Blackmore has given the theory of the meme."[20] Other treatments of memes, that cite Blackmore, can be found in the works of Robert Aunger: The Electric Meme,[21] and Jonathan Whitty: A Memetic Paradigm of Project Management.[22]

This is all from her wikipedia, which is about a one minute read.

As I recall, her consciousness textbook is fairly opinionated but it still gives a fair tour of the mainstream theories. She happens to be an illusionist like Dan Dennett. There's no "woo" in her coverage of the topic.

Yeah, I would decouple it from any residential ISP, but use a $4 VPS to still self-host. That also removes the need for a DDNS setup. Given some basic Linux skills, all you need is SSH plus nginx+certbot on Debian with unattended-upgrades or similar, that you can point your domain to.
So this argument can be used these ways:

--headless

--headless=new

--headless=chrome

And each mean something different - but what?

Not documented, very frustrating.

Can you explain the difference between each of the above arguments?
That is true. I mean, I'm sure this will negatively effect quite a few people... I just don't see it replacing the majority of artists anytime soon.
Consider TDVP (Triadic Distinction Vortical Paradigm) from Ed Close (erclosetphysics.com) and Vernon Neppe (vernonneppe.org), based on the work of George Spencer Brown, who invented the Calculus of Indications which encapsulates boolean logic but does so in a profoundly elegant visual grammar. One that dramatically shortens calculation visually.

Distinction: to distinguish anything from anything else.
Consciousness: the distinction of self from other. Also has further distinctions of inside the self and the other organized into patterns, and distinctions drawn for negative entropy and spiritual evolution, the basis of all change.
Distinctions have three parts, that which is distinguished, that from which it is distinguished, and the consciousness drawing the distinction. This has reality differntiation along the lines of the Perceptual, Conceptual and Existential, and distinctions themselves have variables of Intent, Content and Extent.

Imagine a idealist, unified monism 9-D model of reality that has three main prongs. Other unstable particles teased into existence temporarily by LHC are not very useful whereas normalization based on the characteristics of the free electron when it comes to Space/Time/Consciousness are relevant.

For symbolic representation of Extent: this is Space that has three dimensions and is represented using integers. And then there is Time, which are image events of cause and effect on a timeline, that are represented like a plane, a volume, or that of more other people, and this represented with imaginary numbers. And then there is Consciousness-awareness, complex numbers, the awareness of being, or the distinction of Self from Other as spiritual awareness or life trace, and it too is a plane, a volume, and that of more other people.

For the symmetric resonance of Content we have Mass (subatomic, atomic and the universe), Energy (photonic, electric, magnetic) and also Consciousness-meaningfulness (individual, group and cosmic) aka gimmel, the third form of reality which is not mass or energy.

Primary Consciousness is one thing, but then gimmel, the organizer, is second and mass/energy is third.

For Intent or meaningful information: existential, conceptual and imaginary.

In this model we are all moving towards experiences like what is termed Cosmic Consciousness (omnipresence) in Yoga, especially along the lines of Kriya Yoga as brought forward into the West by Yogananda. Anyway, perhaps a start towards mathematizing consciousness that is compatible with ancient wisdom and modern mathematics.
