I think they cared a lot more about the cinematographic aspect and its connection to the story[0].

Ask HN: Main link to ChatGPT is broken?

Posted by Witoso on Thursday January 26, 2023 @04:00AM
from the ask-hn dept.

I noticed that the first result in Google for "chat gpt" leads to https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt/ but when you navigate to this page, it fails with too many redirects on the strange https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt/qwe.sh/%2F../ url. Any ideas?

My scratch was actually kid related. I couldn’t find a simple, quick and ad-free tool for my daughter to learn reading. Hence, I created https://czytanko.org/ to practice with her a few minutes per day (Polish lang only).

I recommend "Understanding Variation: The Key to Managing Chaos" by Donald J. Wheeler, colleague of Deming. Good intro to SPC.

I would add some clarifying quantifiers to your statement as not all rich people are rich because of markets knowledge. Inheritance of wealth is also an important contributor.

Ask HN: Learning How to Teach

Posted by Witoso on Monday September 21, 2020 @04:15AM
from the ask-hn dept.

I'm wondering what resources (books, blogs, talks, etc.) would you recommend for learning how to teach. How should I pass knowledge to my colleagues at work? How to prepare most effective workshops?I think teaching requires a set of skills like presentation skills or change management but I'm curious if someone described the whole activity with advices how to get better at it.
