It's a bad idea.

Not even economists trust him.
You don't need an interface to just prompt and get a response from chatGPT it works pretty much out of the box with the API. I guess these interfaces make the interaction a bit more user friendly though.
I'm too old to be homeschooled.

I'm not sure bricklaying makes a lot of sense as a construction method, when you can 3D print a house.
Shouldn't this be the space force's role not the airforce?

The site doesn't appear to be getting much use, there is one little free library in my neighbourhood and as others have mentioned here in their neighbourhoods as well, but the sites search engine isn't picking these up.

Exactly.
Re:The Ergodicity Problem in Economics on Sunday March 07, 2021 @02:09PM (#26378738)
This is also not correct, it depends on which economic model you are looking at. Some assume equilibrium some study transitory dynamics to the equilibrium. You can't make general statements like that and expect them to be always true, you need to refer to a specific model not the field as a whole.

One could always use Choquet expected utility to get around any behavioral objections to the von Neumann or Savage axiomatizations of expected utility theory. Unfortunately this ergodic paper by Peters is simply not a constructive contribution to the debate but rather a red herring.

In terms of supported languages why doesn't pidgin support pidgin. Tagio tumas.
I guess George Lucas gets to sue Google now.
Combining it with bash and psql + csvkit + xsv will give you a powerful combination for data ingestion, wrangling and training all on the command line this would seem to have clear benefits for fast development and prototyping.

OP, here. It's not that long ago, I've used troff myself. Or maybe it was that long ago, but it just seems like yesterday.

I'm curious how this compares with the DAT project https://docs.dat.foundation/docs/intro I've had issues using that with networks throwing NAT errors, but need a secure P2P file solution for large data transfers. Wondering if this wil do the trick.
Online Universities at least some of them do offer those things, within the limits of their funding. And that is really the issue - funding.
This is a great intiative,over 800 devs now participating
Re:Dropbox Transfer on Thursday December 26, 2019 @07:41PM (#21888137)
These are often blocked by network configuration and firewalls , although with some effort you can probably by-pass this issue. The dat protocol is a good example.

How does it integrate with Slack? This would be interesting but details are sadly lacking.
