They straight up respond to abuse. Shows you how consistent people are. Nb this is why so many of us found success with various strains of “game” in our youth.

Neither. It’s not a huge deal, but it is real. It needn’t be totally non serious nor totally important.

That part you quoted isn’t the problem. For many people their autism is or can be a gift. It’s in connection with “we’re the superior species” and there’s a whole Thing There that basically leads to white power and while the racists are gonna do whatever, don’t negotiate with terrorists, it’s...

Let's allll get rich

Yeah that's the whole point. it's a bit of a pickle. If neurodiversity is beautiful (and it can be!) but the big driver is that some of us are 1% a different species, especially if we tie that neurodiversity to say a guns-germs-steel sort of argument, it's just ugly fast. Like obviously the...

What are we gonna do, guys. People are out there, celebrating their autism like its a gift. Also like they (we? you?) are a special better variant and "if everyone was like us" the world would be nice, more fun, and more fair, and still rational and prosperous (hmmm). But also they're finding it...

Tax billionaires into millionaires

I find their timeline legend set to people, who don't change much, instead of naming new technology, incredibly obnoxious.

Exactly. There’s so much that can be done with good prompting, and there’s so much to be done with recognizing responses and running external code as a consequence. LLMs themselves, very powerful and a great tool but only go so far. But in conjunction, we’ve only just scratched the surface...

There’s a big difference between ChatGPT set to 4o and raw 4o api calls. Chat set to 4o has been reasoning a lot lately, and as of a few days ago, including when it does not search the web. But also what is “reasoning” is just extra prompting, iteratively, with some guiding rules. 4o gets a...

It’s funny because those two articles basically contradict each other in practice but reinforce each other in their literal truth. I have a personal source inside the model selection team at OpenAI and he told me that most of his team prefers models good at “competition math” when choosing which...

The smoke around the fire is that Trump was an active trafficking participant and doesn't know how to hide it. He's slithered out of just about everything else, but this one clearly scares him. And if he's scared, he can't do his manic magic, and he finally loses. It's like taking out credit...

They're all in. BTW the newest conspiracy theory is that Obama checked into the White house every day from 8am to 4pm during the Biden administration and ran things. It's not true, obviously, he was almost never there. But there's this recent upswing in deciding it's Obama who is the deep state...

What is this the exact plot of succession?

I believe it but depending on your app and its complexity both in size and in component complexity there is a wide window where if an AI slowed you down, it’s a skill issue. You definitely want your APIs stateless but do you want your agent stateless? My only experience with this other than...
