The most effective learning is when you try it yourself, but can also get immediate feedback and explanation.

It’s doing the problem set, but also being able to check the key. Basically a private tutor or TA available at all times.

Without that you can’t get a tight feedback loop.

The most effective use of these systems will not be copying the answer, it’ll be trying to do it and then asking when stuck.
I've been writing since I was a teenager, opened/closed different blogs, this one is my definite one: https://domenicoluciani.com

I didn't earn that much, just a bunch of euros thanks to some donations (thank you!)

But the most important things I've gotten from it was:

- Improve my written english skill (I'm not a native english speaker)

- Learn how to put my thoughts down, it made me to learn more about a specific topic

- Share my thoughts with clients and colleagues, if I need to say something multiple times it's really efficient since you can just send a link to them.

- Could have been helpful for my CV but I've never had any feedback for it during my interviews
This is just one form of “information ochlocracy” in all forms of media. Ochlocracy is the evil cousin of democracy - basically mob rule.

Because the business model of media (old or new) requires a large audience, the least common denominator inexorably pushes content towards the basest human emotions and targets the least educated (as they are the vast majority of people).

This is how we end up with the History channel focusing on Nazis and Ancient Aliens and Bravo transforming from a channel focused on the arts such as Opera, to broadcasting Real Housewives non stop.

In terms of social media, it’s the same incentives. Those that post or share the most inflammatory content get more reactions and engagement. Even cat pics produce the same level of emotion, except on the opposite end of the spectrum.

What’s not rewarded is intelligent discourse. See also “eternal September”.

A nice new trend is the small newsletter subscription model, where those that most appreciate in-depth, detailed thought are able to support it directly. But this model is simply a boutique solution, and it won’t result in another Time Warner.
I consider myself a happy person and love to stay on top of the news. It makes the day more interesting.
It's not about insurance profiting from it. Carmakers are able to pass off certain things like this due consumers having more or less mandatory insurance on this.

Why do we lock our doors when it's proven doors don't stop thieves (putting aside the fact that locking does prevent people from just simply walking away)? Why haven't we improved our security systems? Because people will still buy homes, and insurance covers loss and damage in case of theft.

Without that, we would demand houses that are harder to break into. So it is for cars.

That’s a feature for outdoor radios so they don’t interfere with airplane radars. Not sure why it was in a laptop. As the other poster said it’s for some non-US countries.

My APs have an outdoor mode I was curious about and turns out it’s for plane radars. I was very confused when I turned it on. They were outside APs so I turned it on. I was looking at the channel interfaces and noticed missing channels.

Trolling too is an attack of some kind.
Reversing time on an attracting force still gives you an attractive force. Velocity is reversed, but acceleration isn't.

Imagine a ball being thrown up and then falling down, in a parabola. Reversing a video of that still gives you a video of a ball in a normal parabola trajectory.
Yes!, one can literally learn these skills but still practical knowledge is required.
I don't think China will achieve a "bolder global role" by being mealy-mouthed on Ukraine. They can let Russia distract the West, but that doesn't really bolster their position.

They probably consider Ukraine a border skirmish beneath their notice, and they're probably right. But that's just it: Russia is reduced to attacking vastly smaller neighbors, and looking pretty stupid in the process. Russia isn't a world power, and it does China little good to snuggle up to them.

I don't see this as a real power play for them. They can gain access to Russia's mineral resources, which is a boon, but not really a "bold global role". It's just ordinary industrial noodling about, of less importance than what they're doing in Africa and possibly Latin America.

Those are genuine opportunities to play a global game. With Russia they just look weak on a chance to play a real global role. If they really wanted to throw their weight around, they'd tell Putin to end the war, and gain a ton of international respect -- or at least fear.

They researched bamba, but then recommended peanut butter.

I remember reading that boiled and roasted peanuts have different allergen profiles, and are not interchangeable.

If you want to do this with your child, use actual bamba, not peanut butter.

On thing the US military is betting on is that nobody can tell WHERE this video took place. But geocoders on the internet work miracles. I recommend searching to see where this took place.

It was an example. I've already pointed out to you you've gotten hung up on a minor, unimportant detail of an example. You're right, you can do the raw disassembly of the instructions by different means first. Which is entirely irrelevant to the point made. In other words: You're being incredibly obtuse and arguing against an imaginary point nobody made.

The recommendation was literally to try the prompt. The purpose of that recommendation was that if you tried it you might see some of the additional commentary ChatGPT adds, which is where the value was. I could have suggested you disassemble it first, but it seemed easier cut and paste the hex values. That is all.

Do you have anything you want to discuss about the actual point? If not we're done here.
Ok wow this is big news, did Facebook or OpenAI threaten them with a lawsuit?
It actually got me my current job. An investor found my blog on Go microservices, and was looking for someone with some experience around that to help get his product/platform off the ground. I worked on it part-time for a couple of years, then when I got made redundant late last year, I got the chance to work on it full-time. And I absolutely love it.

Asides from that, it improved my written communication skills, my ability to constrain ideas and concepts down to the bare minimum. I took it down recently as the content was old and the website needed updating, and I got requests from folks in India, China and Russia requesting me to put it back up again because they use it as a reference. I even found out it had been translated into Mandarin, and was shared a lot around Chinese tech blogs. It blew my mind. It wasn't some huge effort to make really, but it had a big impact on lots of people trying to learn Go and microservices. I wish I had time to revamp it and do some more, but sadly not these days!
Right, the formatting and reading experience has been off. I know for a fact that Amazon does the heavy lifting in converting to ebook format and delivering it.
I like it given the current state of Reddit & Google search results.

I think they need to focus less on moderating questions and more on making sure that answers are high quality. Lots of low effort gate keeping with no intention of being helpful from the get go.
It gets you more of whatever you love doing - even if no one reads it - because you get better at whatever you write about.

If you knew no one would ever read your writing, would you still write it? If yes (the likelihood is no one will read it apart from your future teammates) you'll have found your subject.

It can give you jobs, learning & connections, but it also takes time. Time that can be used for other things that could get you the jobs, learning & connections you want without writing. There's no one way to approach it, you need to find what works for you.

For me - I've written a lot (mostly as principles), but only recently I've focused on learning how to write, which meant I needed a blog to write on and a way to make it fun for me ( https://principles.dev/blog/first-principles-thinking-a-visu...)
Because I don't think that the model learned the literal memorization of chess moves. It must've at least compressed said information in some way way. And since the model is not biased to play chess on its structure nor sampling policy, I think it's fair to consider it an emergent ability.

Chess moves are a tiny/diminute part of all text learned by the model. This memorization argument is very similar to the "Stable Diffusion just takes bits of the images in the original dataset and parches them together".

Ruined? That seems like hyperbole. Maybe 10-20% of posts that make the front page are LLM/GPT related, more on days when a big feature or model is released. Tons of other topics are getting upvoted and discussed.

If you're biased against something or some group, you are more likely to overestimate how prevalent it is.
I refer to Tesla's practice of releasing videos after Tesla crashes in an attempt to discredit the drivers involved, which came as quite a surprise to the drivers, who didn't realize that the cameras on the car they bought would rat them out.

> They almost exclusively target africans, middle easterners, etc.

That's because the last major war in Europe (before the current round of Russian aggression) was before the ICC; the ICC was a follow-on to special ad hoc tribunals for individual situations, one of the most significant being the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, which targeted, almost exclusively, Europeans.

> Wonder why the ICC isn’t targeting anyone from france, britain, etc for Libya or Syria.

Because they’ve gotten no reports of such crimes? (Unlike the UK in Iraq, where they did, and performed an extensive investigation and report, ultimately concluding no basis for charges at the Court.)
I wondered what kind of liquidity buffer participating institutions will have to provide in order to insure that instant payments really are instant, even in high demand situations, and found the following, which I don't find very satisfying:

Mediatek and Qualcomm are pretty well supported afaict. Realtek is hit or miss. Broadcom should probably be avoided.
At Grab, we have an internally built system (that I think is backed by Active Directory and leverages experience from ppl from okta).

As a "requestor", I choose from a list of services, then I select which role I want, then there are meta attributes (like which country's data I want to access, etc.). This then lets me oAuth into the internal app with a JWT. My access is time limited (max of 90 days or only 2 hours).

As a data owner and EM, I approve requests for services and data that I own.

As an service creator, I have to register the service in the tool, provide all of my various roles and configurations.

This system works with both internal and external authorizations. Like if I need prod AWS write access.

It doesn't cover all data (some tools have similar internally built systems), but we will eventually migrate everything to it.

This is probably all I have time to share.

This is not a scientific paper, and I at least find this decision justified, as he could have been more lenient and grab headlines with a bigger ELO.
Agree, the pandemic didn't hit the way I expected and I've heard many with similar experiences. This type of response (generally speaking, not necessarily you) may for some be driven by hypervigilance, as one of the ways it manifests is a level of calm in emergencies when others are freaking out. Rather paradoxical on the surface, but has to do with adaptation to certain stress levels and threat/friend response. The pandemic made a lot of friends into threats, if you were trying to avoid covid. Safety came from a greater level of suspicion and alertness to surroundings; an unhealthy response in everyday life but rather suitable for a pandemic. Another example is soldiers who come back from war can feel really out of place in civilian life, but in wartime can feel like they're 'home'.
It’s terrible. But at least I rarely have to touch the config. I guess the silver lining is it’s so bad we don’t use it for anything besides dependency management so configs are simple and just copy pasted between projects and rarely touched.
That's basically my point; that sort of context is exactly the sort of thing you would not need to say to a person who grew up in a typical social environment. If we focus too much on teaching AI technical skills, we might later find out that some of the social skills we think of as implicit were just as important.
I'm a US academic, so there's not much choice but to have a website. It has definitely led to increased learning and new connections. Hard to say for sure, but I suspect it has opened some side opportunities.

I'd have a website even if it provided none of the above. Think about how good it feels to have a deep conversation with someone on a topic you love. That's what it feels like to write for my website. And in 2023, the cost is basically zero.
I've never visited a Scotch distillery, but I had the same experience at the KY Bourbon distilleries. I found that I liked it best in the middle: with a drop of water to smooth out the alcohol and open up the flavor profile.

Same with coffee, actually: a little milk to bring out the flavor, in all but the most dry and winey specialty light roasts. From what I remember, the milk actually binds with certain chemicals in the coffee, allowing other flavors to come through. I believe this is also why even a small amount of milk makes coffee significantly easier on my stomach than completely black.
It's amazing how I'd never heard the word "spelunk" before today, and now in the span of the last few hours, I've heard it multiple times in three different contexts.
Can you elaborate? How do you "make" two-sided markets (particularly when building on foundation models)?
I like how it ends with it can write code that is repetitive and has many examples of solutions floating around which is most of coding.

It will probably edge upward as well as time goes by till there are only very edge problems that it cannot solve. Even then I would use it to write the broken down version of the solution. It is going to be getting fed by pretty much every programmer,knowledge profession on the planet using copilots of some sort. Eventually it will have knowledge transferred everything humans can do into its model.

Wish people could turn back time, and get back the time spent reading news/politics articles. Such a waste of time. Nothing ever happens. And if WWIII happens, nothing you can do about it reading articles.
Dude, they're mask-off race scientists these days. Look at the ACX comments for example. Or at least two of the several recent scandals in EA.
My tests on small parts of big programs suggests if anything that it does far better than I expected, but you're probably right that it would struggle with that for many things if you tried turning it into a bigger tool, and having it generate summaries is probably essential. While we can "fake" some level of memory that way, I really would like to see how far LLM's can go if we give them a more flexible form of memory...
They (1-3) do not exist but they are psychically real- they are genuine illusions, as instantiated in the dynamic, split-second successive whiffs emerging from the processing of neurons. To think that they (1-3) "exist" in a classical sense is a reification error.

> My bourbon drinking friends think it is unethical to add water or ice. The local bourbon groups on Facebook will roast someone with ice or water in their glass.

Which is funny, because if you visit any distillery or talk to industry experts (I'm friends with one of them), they'll say that you should drink it however you enjoy it most.
This just makes me wish e-ink displays were as cheap as the API calls that pi is making.
They are both bad, you don't have to enable threats of self-harm or suggest woes disappear when you give in to external influence. Just show how easy it is to transition into a healthy conversation that involves no attention-seeking.

The value of a masterpiece is quantified in the human ingenuity and labor (aka craftsmanship) that it took to produce.

Michealangelo’s David is a masterpiece that took one of the greatest marble workers and masters of human anatomy to carve.

A completely identical David produced by a machine, or a 3D print of it, based on a model derived by a GAN, is worthless.

"For this invention will produce forgetfulness in the minds of those who learn to use it, because they will not practice their memory. Their trust in writing, produced by external characters which are no part of themselves, will discourage the use of their own memory within them. You have invented an elixir not of memory, but of reminding; and you offer your pupils the appearance of wisdom, not true wisdom, for they will read many things without instruction and will therefore seem to know many things, when they are for the most part ignorant and hard to get along with, since they are not wise, but only appear wise."

Yes, this is going to make us smarter. Just like the personal computer was the 20th century "bicycle for the mind", large language models will be the 21st century "copilot for the mind". The only scary part it it feels like we're handing over some of the reins.

I have seen the benefits of:
- Having some kind of concrete output to learning or little micro projects. Organizing and adding to my notes is kind of fun.
- Documentation for my future self. Sometimes I do go back to refresh.
- Some people have reached out for collaboration solely because of my blog
- Not having to fixate on ideas anymore because I got them out there.
- I don't know for sure, but I think it has helped my case getting hired, especially since my pedigree is a bit off for the job I'm doing.

I think controlling your content is really important. I want it to still exist in 20 years. Getting off of wordpress was annoying and scary. I'm a fan of simple.
