Flask is decent. Can’t we use that?
Lots of negative comments below which I think are overly critical. I think the stack looks good and I’ve also had no issues with mongo. Will take a look!
I love Amiga

Helpful. I was thinking today about when it makes sense to fine tune vs use embeddings to feed into the LLM prompt and this helped solidify my understanding.
Recently moved from Vancouver to London. I’ve had enough with the drugs issues there.
This reminds me of Vancouver Canada. What happens is decent people and families move out of the downtown core, leaving the worst offenders to run amok. It’s sad. I wonder how many of the 200 experts advocating for the continuation of this policy have children.
I love London
Doesn’t this mean crypto has a major problem ?

I would be interested to know how this was done.

Unless they have access to Code Interpreter then gpt4 won’t generate graphs and images.

Did they have it generate Python that made the graphs in matplotlib or something ? What did the prompts look like?

If the platforms revenue doesn’t come from ads, where does it come from?

Is there a description of what the api does ? I don’t know the vast majority of these names.
Man, what will be left for devs.

Feels like people running small websites monetised with ads will get killed. Why go to a recipe website to search for healthy meals for your kids if you can ask chat gpt in Instacart? :(

America has more natural resources than Europe. That’s just luck.

Well the story is pretty different if we are using waste like animal manure to create fuel.

I find running hurts my knees so I cycle. Similar benefits but I see more nature and protect my joints.

Built a qr code generator website 15 years ago and it paid me $750 a month in AdWords revenue. Gold.

Not if you locked in a feed in tariff from years ago. They lasted 15 years I think.

Btc is a more akin to a commodity like gold, which also has no cash flow. It can’t be valued by dcf’ing cash flows, hence methods like stock to flow for valuation or comps.

Pos assets like Eth also have a running yield so you can discount cashflows on those.

I’ve been using render.com. Pretty good alternative.

Nice, what’s the tech stack?
FTX is a centralised exchange, it is not routing all customer trades on chain. It’s not a blockchain failure, it’s just a lack of client asset segregation by a traditional centralised trading house.
