My last startup CEO basically got called out for exactly this on Glassdoor...

- Forced a team to pull in their estimate by a month

- Verbally berated the team when they missed the estimate he forced them to set.

...surprisingly enough the engineers never got the chance to berate him for mismanaging strategy that led to layoffs and pulled offers with the promise this would make the company stable for the next two years only to have round two within six months.

You might consider how a company (or individual) ought to decide which products to develop in the first place. Ideas are cheap. Companies often have a portfolio in different stages of development. Alternatively individuals need to decide which to focus on. In larger companies, product development typically includes cross-functional teams. While ideas can come from anywhere, without validating the market (and therefore understanding the market) odds of success are slim. Therefore marketers often aim to validate an idea's potential before moving through to MVP and staged releases.

You seem to believe that marketing's job is just to promote products. It's not. Under competent management, marketing should be involved with ideas early in the process and feed into the product teams to help them build things people want. Then, through iterative feedback, products can be improved to achieve product-market fit. Anyway, plenty of books on the subject. I like "Nail it then scale it". Good luck.
Doesn't the United States run effectively the same sort of operations to enforce their laws on citizens and non-citizens around the world? I'm just wondering what is illegal about this, especially when the article says that these stations and foreign police offices are explicitly run with the cooperation of local law enforcement in some cases.

Or just live in a small town where all of your friends and needs are 5 minutes away.

I see no point to overpopulated cities with remote work so prevalent nowadays.

Cars aren't the problem, overpopulated cities are.

I can walk my town end to end in 15 minutes, there's a coop, grocery store, hospital, entertainment, etc. You can drive to another town if you want, or drive and park anywhere without paying, or walk, or bike. This is common for most small towns that I know of.

"That's pretty telling how the community feels about being used as training data"

I don't think most of the replies on SO mention this directly, they mostly focus on how this will impact the site's quality negatively. But really you are correct that people don't like being used as training data and imo the "arguments" everyone are making against AI disadvantages on SO, on art sites, on wherever else are pretty much "excuses". Quoted because even if they are correct they are just excuses for the core much more ethical issue - humans don't want to be replaced. Being replaced by a machine is even shittier. Being replaced by a machine that exploited your own hard work against you even more so.

In a real world example if my boss hired a junior whom I must mentor with the sole purpose of me being fired and replaced so he can pay him less. Well that would be considered very unethical even though it does happen and many workers do put up with it. Yet the current AI movement is that on an unprecedented scale and to the people being replaced it must feel like a massive bitch slap in the face.

To me it seems like an extreme expression of power and it's bizzare how many people are fine with it.
Thank you. Clickbait titles like this are painful.
Yeah I really like this project, and I've been meaning to dive into it.
They already have been granted trademark protection for GPT-3[1]. If I had to place a bet one way or the other, I would guess they will get GPT as well. You say it's widely used but even here GPT is mostly synonymous with OpenAI products and services. Even in this thread, plenty of people are complaining about the confusion caused by the name GPT4All.

I can go one step further. I was a part time fitness instructor. I taught at one particular gym 3 days a week. It was very much our social circle. We would meet there for class, train for runs, run charity races at different places at least once per month, we went to each others weddings, etc. It was my most fun group as an adult.

Then life happened in 2012. I got married and moved to the other side of the metro area and couldn’t find time to teach anymore and soon after “something” happened and my asthma flared up and it took over a year to recover and then other long standing physical issues started becoming more prominent.

But most fitness classes were mostly female. Mine was different since my choreography was simple and athletic. We were also all single or both the husband and wife would come. It would be seen as creepy as a male to try to make “friends” with women I met at the gym especially now at 50 and myself being married.

Ironically enough, my wife is involved in the fitness industry now and I meet a lot of couples via her friends.

Anyway, I started back training for runs earlier this year and will be joining running clubs.
Yes, that happens, but I've also had to take over a large iOS app written by a self-taught programmer who never learned DRY. They didn't factor out any shared code whatsoever. Any time they needed to do something that had already been done, they just bounced over to the other controller and copied the code over.

Of course, the copied code was often buggy, and they would only fix the instance in the controller where the bug was reported. When bugs were fixed it was pretty much random chance which version would be chosen to copy when needed again, so creating the right abstractions involved piecing together an entire phylogenetic tree of the code to decide which pieces were supposed to be the same and which were legitimately different.

Add a commit history that looked like "v1", "v2", "v3", and... yeah. We finally decided it would be cheaper to scrap the app and rewrite it from scratch.

So, yes, premature abstraction is a huge problem, but so is the opposite extreme, and after that experience I personally would choose overly-indirect code over the mess I inherited. It's easier to untangle a function that has too many callers than it is to find code that should have been shared after months of divergent evolution.

Kinda sucks but at least there will be some sort of competence-check. I paid $80000 for 50% of my profs to be overt progressive propagandists and I was too young and impressionable to really figure out what was going on. Credit to the Uni though, there was a physics prof who spent a lecture insisting climate change was not caused by humans whatsoever, so I guess there was a little balance.

Deep questions like why didn't anyone like Metro UI on Windows 8? :)
Even on touch devices it sucked.

I would say that was an obvious sign of a a sick organization when it effects that kind of carnage on its users. Only reason they got away with it, was that there were no real alternatives to Windows.
Windows 11 is something in the same league, but i would say there are more alternatives now than ever before, so Microsoft better watch out.

A classic mistake Apple has avoided. The Mac is not numerically their big platform but it’s key to their ecosystem so they have not abandoned it.

You didn't specify if you are using openwrt and which version. I used wrt1900 and wrt3200 as router with one of the latest openwrt (not the one posted) and do precisely that, have each switch physical lan port on a separate interface and network range. It has been possible for quite a while, but the latest DSA changes to the linux kernel make the process much simpler.

The reason that I've lost so many friendships in the past decade is exactly what you're saying: friendships are not a priority for the average person who is gainfully employed, married with kids, maybe has pets, and also has social obligations to their relatives.

For someone in your position, maintaining friendships is always going to be the lowest priority item, on a neverending list of responsibilities and social expectations.

That's one thing that frustrates me about American society. People who are married with kids are insanely busy, with a robust and built-in social network, whether it's through interactions with relatives, or even making friends with other parents through sporting events, etc.

It's tough for the rest of us. Obviously there is no quick fix to this problem, but for now I'm able to fill some social needs through meetups and other social events. I'll probably also get a pet eventually.

Hi!

First, congratulations on your project! As Onion said: determination is the key. I'd like to recommend a blog article called "Biggest Mistakes First-time Startup Founders Make": https://www.ratherlabs.com/post/biggest-mistakes-first-time-...

It provides an interesting read about startup projects and how to start making them.

Wish you the best of luck!
> but IMHO (tea leaves reading really) it would only lead to incremental improvements in overall systems.

It will reach a point where that is the case, sure; it is not there now, and if we are within one model generation of exhausting (for now) major core model improvements, I don’t think we’ll have reached the point of gradual incremental improvement from rest-of-system improvements yet.
Haha I didn't even attempt to convince you.

You keep circling around a "good company is good, bad company is bad" narrative.

You condemn the collection of data for the purpose of targeted advertising, because that's "spying".
You don't care if Apple is also doing advertising, because it's the collection of data which is problematic.

I just asked how Apple is expected to sell targeted ads any differently than collecting their users' data (to create personas for ads), and you keep reframing it to reply how others are "bad companies" because they collect userdata. This is the straw man argument you keep creating.

You made it very clear that there is no answer. To you Apple is simply different because they are a "good company".

> a signal that they'd misjudged and significantly overbuilt capacity, not that it's a good idea.

Unlike, say, renewables, that have overbuilding as a requirement I guess: https://twitter.com/energybants/status/1647799729734971396

What this means is that they built enough capacity to counter most requirements for power, and hand handle elastic demand without the need to overbuild or extensive expensive storage (something also absolutely required for renewables).
Any keyboard model run well on lineage these days? I've kind of given up on them. The Curve 9320 was my favorite phone ever, and the Q10 was alright. These days I have an old Moto. Map/route applications don't run very well on it so I'll likely upgrade.

Morocco is much more politically stable and friendly than Algeria or (sadly now) Tunisia, let alone Egypt or Libya. It's also in their best interests, as reducing the importance of natural gas, that their frenemy Algeria is a major exporter of, enhances their geopolitical influence over Algeria, e.g. to obtain recognition of their claims to West Sahara. That said, anything can happen, monarchies can be overthrown, and Europe would be well-advised to keep additional capacity on tap domestically so it is not at the mercy of a new regime in Morocco the way it was with Russian gas.

I have a soft sport for the old Rangers, but they had some serious safety shortcomings and lack many of the factors that drive modern truck sales now, like large size, higher up, and a correspondingly smoother ride.

It's a work truck, and in the US modern trucks are luxury vehicles, effectively mid-to-large-sized SUVs with a flatbed. I worked in Australia for a while and their 'ute's were quite stripped down in comparison, save for a few models (like the new Ranger, which IIRC was a model first developed for the Australian market).
That is really interesting experiment! I have so many questions.

- do you feel like this could be a viable work model for real projects? I recognize it will most likely be more effective to balance LLM code with hand written code in the real world.

- some of your prompts are really long. Do you feel like the code you get out of the LLM is worth the effort you put in?

- given that the code returned is often wrong, do you feel like you could feasible for someone who knows little to no code?

- it seems like you already know well all the technology behind what you are building (I.e. you know how to write a game in js). Do you think you could do this without already having that background knowledge?

- how many times do you have to refine a prompt before you get something that is worth committing?
Ni-dominant. It exists nowadays in various post-Jungian models, many of which are really fascinating, having fleshed it out a lot.

The opposing function to Ni is Se, which creates a dichotomy of planning/foreseeing vs. doing/performing. The functions oscillate as a kind of duty cycle, so a lot of sages out there have hobbies as musicians, stage magicians, etc.

This dichotomy also effectively shuts out detail memory for context, dealing mostly with present vs. future. Even nostalgia is often ignored on the daily. So a Ni-dom will usually describe their memory as pattern-based, gestalt, more vague or general, etc.

Could one seperate the kdf from the disk? Actually, not have any kdf?

Where the disk only has a fully secure huge random key, not generated by a kdf but supplied whole by usb or something.

Protecting that external component is a problem, but it's a seperate problem, and having a copy of the drive, and everything else in your posession, and all the ram and gpus in aws doesn't get you into that drive.

The external part doesn't have to be a thumb drive right on your person. It could be stored anywhere on-line and/or on paper, and you just know where it is and how to get it.

You might have to re-create some kind of thumb drive for conveient use, but you could also intentionally lose/destroy it any time and not have it on your person during travel or sitting in a drawer at home. You would only recreate it when & where you decided it was safe to.

The actual quote from Phyllis was "
I always carried knitting because my codes were on a piece of silk".

There's no need for knitting to be involved in the encoding. She had a message (unclear if it was a message she received or her own personal knowledge; likely her own knowledge from observing Nazi/German soldiers), and she had a silk with the code keys, and she had a transmission station.
Generally, I agree that approach works well. It’s going to perform better if it’s not trying to fulfill your teams existing patterns. On the other hand, allowing lots of inconsistencies in style in your large code base seems like a quick way to create a hot mess. Chat prompts seem like a really difficult way to communicate code style and conventions though. A sibling comment to yours mentions that a copilot autocomplete seems like a much better pattern for working in an existing code base, and I tend to agree that’s much more promising. Read the existing code, and recommend small pieces as you type

Sometimes companies do buy offices. But very often they don't, either because they don't want to or can't afford to. Sometimes they buy offices, then rent out space to other companies. Sometimes they sign long term leases, but then change their plans and sublease to others. It's not at all clear to me what people are arguing for here. Companies rent office space because they've judged it the best use of their resources. They aren't being victimized by some landlord class, they're making resource allocation choices.

You just select the size and get an image of the correct size, something like http://www.example.com/200x300/kitty.jpg , but I can't find the old post. The interesting part is that the author used the eyes as the "center" of the crop, so at any size you got an image that look strangely interesting.
