The CoT might "in English", but is it really, or is the CoT just another presentation layer over the actual weights?
What I think the author (and I) are wondering about, is whether instructions like these might influence not _only_ the final output, but also the way it got there.
What is this "this" you're referring to? Was this on the ballot? Did Trump announce that he would do this?
It seems very easy to just blame this on the voter like this.
I just tried chatjimmy.ai for a bit and while it is absolutely blazingly fast, it's also not a very strong model. I suppose that with time, stronger models will be able to run on such hardware, too.
I've noticed the same thing. I would have three, sometimes four sessions run at the same time. It would be great, but mentally exhausting. To help this, I've set a self-imposed limit of two active chat sessions at a time.
Another thing I found is that it is too easy to keep going. I would work for too long and get even more exhausted. It feels rude to just stop a conversation. LLMs don't really care about social norms like that, but it still felt awkward to me and I would worry about losing the context I had.
To help with that, I wrote my own little plugin that reminds me to start winding down at the end of the work day and starts prompting me (pardon my phrasing) to take the off-ramp; to relay any thoughts and todos I still have in mind and put them down to pick up the next day.
This is in no way production ready, but it might be an inspiration: https://github.com/pindab0ter/wind-down
I think time and time again that incentives are most important in determining how a market and by extension a society behaves. These prediction markets incentivize the absolute worst in humanity.
These markets allow you to bet on when the invasion of a foreign country or the demise of a person happens. There comes a point where one bets against someone to die and you will see themselves incentivized to make that happen.
Where do you keep the skills it generates from docs? Does this not become a mess?
This post resonates with me. I recognize everything you said except for the metrics part, since my employer luckily doesn't do that.
It's addictive. You're fast, efficient, you feel like you're in control. All while you're slowly losing grip.
I love how nuanced your takes are. The biggest challenge of this new programming paradigm is not to see how you can use it to its fullest extent. It is to find out what a sustainable pace is, both sort and long term.
It is hard to understate how difficult that is.
https://hansvl.nl/I've tried writing a few blog posts just to mostly learn about writing. Any feedback is welcome. Most posts are written to an imagined audience of people familiar with the topic.
I've also written a very basic terminal, just for laughs. It's nothing special, but I had fun making it.
It's called title case and for as far as I'm aware this is a uniquely American thing.
21 mil BTC is set. But how many new BTC alternatives have been launched since?
Bitcoins in practice are not truly limited. The amount of gold on earth is not likely to change much, despite the efforts of alchemists in the past. However, new bitcoins (with new limited supplies) are introduced all the time.
What exactly is so bad about Finder? I've never had any issues with it.
I am not at all familiar with the US system. How come there is a $3500 donation limit to politicians, but the tech billionaires have donated hundreds of millions to the inauguration fund?
I would like to know, what are some things that you could use this for?
This seems like a very powerful dataset.
It leaves a lot unsaid. Advertising has a lot of connotations and cultural significance. It can evoke strong feelings for one and be a livelihood for another. Simply stating that an advertisement is 'a public notice' doesn't do it justice.
I understand that dictionaries are not encyclopedias, but a little more is warranted IMO.
You can also choose a preferred skin when you log in and go to Preferences → Appearance.
Is the useSkin parameter something you manually added? I am not logged in and when I navigate to another page the parameter (and with it the skin preference) disappears.
I understand that defining advertising is hard, but "1 : a public notice" is so broad as to be almost meaningless as a definition.
Reading the article, it doesn't seem so.
The drug looks promising, even though it will probably not work in all cases.
Imagine reading "one-second(th?) of all women". It seems absolutely ridiculous.
Yet "one-third" or "one-fifth" are perfectly normal. Language is weird and I like that.
Markdown being so ubiquitous is what makes it valuable, IMO. Do you think AsciiDoc has the potential to reach that point as well?
What do you mean? Is Ruby helping or preventing AsciiDoc from becoming more widespread?
Other than inertia, what is keeping AsciiDoc from overtaking Markdown?
Personally I like the ubiquity and simplicity of Markdown, but I can also see the benefits of the features AsciiDoc has to offer.
I think it’s both funny and fitting that a video game library opens in ‘early access’. Apart from adding more games over time, I don’t see the distinction between early access and an actual release.
The website is operational and usable, and will have more content added to it over time. Much like early access games. I wonder what the actual distinction is.
I often use ’ and –. What's wrong with that?
How much of the support is because they actually agree with the policies being passed versus "their leader showing strength"?
Cursor requires you to use their specific IDE though, doesn't it? With Copilot I don't have to switch contexts as it lives in my Jetbrains IDE.
