What is the best local model for cursor style autocomplete/code suggestions? And is there an extension for vs code which can integrate local model for such use?

This is incorrect. Check your facts. They're made up.

It's funny that nobody mentions such an institution and how it was fixed. Elon Musk fired 80% of Twitter's employees, and it's better than ever.

Honestly, this is more of a PR stunt to advertise the Google Dev ecosystem than a contribution to open-source. I'm not complaining, just calling it what it is.

Barely an improvement over the 5-month-old Mistral model, with the same context length of 8k. And this is a release after their announcement of Gemini Pro 1.5, which had an exponential increase in context length.

'GPT assistant' is now associated with OpenAI's GPTs for me. Very confusing.

That's right. How else do you propose we stop American soldiers from raping, torturing, and murdering citizens of the countries the US invaded? By not letting NATO be at your doorstep, of course!

And for Ukraine, you can tell your friends it was nice knowing them. Russia is rapidly modernizing, gaining valuable experience, and outscaling NATO in ammunition production.

At least you can enjoy videos of peak human engineering while hundreds of Dorito drones fly over Ukraine every night!

For those keen on following this situation as it evolves, consider subscribing to keywords 'OpenAI' and 'Sam Altman' via my Telegram HackerNews alerts bot to receive related stories. The bot is completely free and open-source. My aim here isn't financial gain or power, but rather to offer a useful tool for the community (https://github.com/lawxls/HackerNews-Alerts-Bot).
While the unfolding situation at OpenAI is certainly complex, one can't help but question the role of D'Angelo in this scenario. Given his entanglement in AI development and his recent ventures that place him in direct competition with OpenAI, his continued presence on the board raises legitimate concerns. The essence of board membership, especially in a field as intricate and rapidly evolving as AI, should be rooted in unconflicted support and clear alignment with the organization's goals. If the circulating rumors hold any weight—those hinting at his involvement in the CEO's abrupt dismissal—then it only compounds the argument for a reconsideration of his board role. Entrepreneurship, while often a game of strategic moves, must also adhere to a code of ethics. If these stories of past betrayals among peers are more than just whispers, it does raise questions about the integrity of leadership and decision-making within such influential tech circles. In the interest of transparency and maintaining trust within the tech community, perhaps it's time for D'Angelo to reevaluate his position and possibly step down, ensuring OpenAI can navigate its path without potential conflicts.

I made a Telegram bot for receiving all kinds of alerts from Hacker News. One related feature is the ability to subscribe to a specific thread, which enables you to receive new comments directly in telegram.

Although not exactly that, here's a telegram bot I made with a bunch of features related to notifications from HN: https://github.com/lawxls/HackerNews-Alerts-Bot

Maybe I'll add such notifications in the future

"It's just a basic search (like Ctrl + F).

For example, if there's a story called "ChatGPT's API Is So Good and Cheap, It Makes Most Text Generating AI Obsolete" and I have the keyword "GPT", I'll receive it in my feed because the title contains "GPT" in it.

There's also a "-whole-word" option, means it will match if the keyword is a whole word. I use it for monitoring stories with "AI" in the title.

Bot was offline for a bit, sorry for that. /keywords to list your keywords.
If anyone here is a telegram user, here's a Hacker News alerts bot I'm developing for such kind of notifications: https://github.com/lawxls/HackerNews-Alerts-Bot (reply alerts is still in To Do stage)
