You’d have to be entirely brainless to look at this landscape and think your hard work is going to “pay off” in any significant way.

That “hard work” gets milked at every job. Your “hard work” is just “meets expectations” on your quarterly review and that’s why you won’t see a cost of living raise this year. Maybe if you work harder next year? And don’t take any time off?

And then you see the billionaire class spending more money with a wave of their hand than you’ll ever see in your life. More than your entire community could pool together in your collective lifetimes. The billionaires didn’t “work hard” for it. They were born into it. Then you’ll see that massive waste of money implode at the bottom of the sea and wonder why people go hungry.

If you’re going to work hard - make sure it’s for yourself / someone you care about. Employers are here to take advantage of you.

still don’t think it stands up

How dare you. You monster. It was one of my favorites as a kid.

… but it’s a fair criticism. Game is mostly jank held together with hope.

Mark Mothersbaugh is an awesome composer & musician. His score for “The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou” is marvelous.

Cool. I like the idea of LinkWarden, but there’s too many bells & whistles for me. I love the simplicity, here.

Satisfied, I am now stepping away from the Apple ecosystem. My friends in the Asahi Linux orbit will carry the torch from here.

This whole project is badass. Well done.

Some prick at OpenAI says ChatGPT is great? Well golly gee.

Escape from LA is basically the same movie but dumber & wackier. It’s great!

Aw, poor employers. Gettin’ anxiety because they’re “forced” to underpay their employees. Seems like that anxiety’s been around a long time.

Is this shameless ignorance, or sponsored gaslighting? I’m assuming the latter from Fortune.

I cannot wait for everything from research papers to grade school reports to have product placement based on whoever’s paying OpenAI the most.

What he is increasingly worried about is a revolt.

Oh, gee. I wonder why?

This is a wild escalation. Wonder if the fascist party is trying to push for a revolt; I don’t know many Dems/Liberal/decent people who are capable of a violent revolution, but the fascists are frothing at the mouth for it.

It is not. “Formally dubbed” by people who want you to believe these LLMs are more than just a collection of GPUs. LLMs don’t “understand” anything. These errors pop up because it can’t think, learn, or adapt.

Personifying them like this headline does is stupid and dangerous. LLMs do not “think” because there is no thought. It doesn’t “hallucinate” any more than a rock does.

Don’t need to. Any writer trying to personify LLMs isn’t worth the bandwidth.

LLMs cannot think, and cannot “go into a delusional spiral”. Whatever the article contains, it’s bullshit.

From the original post:

Sure, they have huge GPU clusters, but there must be more going on - model optimizations, sharding, custom hardware, clever load balancing, etc.

What engineering tricks make this possible at such massive scale while keeping latency low?

The amount of hardware they’re using is far more than you’re imagining, x1000. To answer your question as simply as possible: Money. Money to buy nuclear power plants to power this specific technology. Money to market & sell the idea. Money to lobby for legislation so it can keep sucking up copyrighted works. Money, money, and money is the reason why these companies can run this stuff while OP cannot.

Also, and mostly just my own paranoia - I don’t trust anything these LLM companies are saying. Their entire product is running on hype right now. Every one of these companies is dumping absurd amounts of money into something that barely works, and there’s no incentive for them to be honest with any of it. If the hype doesn’t perpetuate, they’ve wasted that money.

In the animated series his character gets carried off by a giant bird in the first episode. Pretty sure it was the first thing they produced after he passed; his dialogue is just scraps they cut from other episodes.

But as far as I’ve heard they intended that to be canon.

“It’s true, I asked ChatGPT and it assured me it’ll be perfect within a year!”

Bullshit generator generates more bullshit.

This tells me LibreOffice has become a threat to Microsoft, and I’m here for it.

If anyone else is curious what it’s like, LibreOffice’s site is here. Highly recommend.

Always liked Nord.

Everforest is my current favorite.

Solarized has been around for eons. As well as Gruvbox, but you may need to do more legwork for that one.

Catppuccin and Tokyo Night have some nice palettes, too.

And no - I’m not aware of a solid centralized place to find high quality, multi-app color schemes like these.

Just once. Right at the end of the movie.
