And what would they do if you refuse?

It might be worth looking into probabilistic programming languages. I'm out of date, but I remember webppl, stan, anglican, pymc (a python library).

Seems worth an investigation and maybe mention on the article.

Decisions by small groups should be the default. Others only need to be involved if the risk/consequences of failure are high.

I started ignoring all PRs from our large team because we had a similar policy. My teammates can handle, they don't need me to check on each PR.

I recommend finding a real project that is likely to have some complex needs. It's easier to learn when there are real problems to solve.

In general, the harder it is to undo and the broader the consequence, the more you need to check.

Agreed. I enjoy looking at and using a lot of these components.

The first picture is of overcooked pancakes. Hard to trust the rest :)

If Imagen generates a digital painting after my prompt, I didn't make the painting.

I don't want them to say "I wrote it." They're still responsible, but it's helpful to know they weren't deeply involved in its creation.

I have no problem with my credentials being revoked everywhere before I know about a layoff. I don't really care how I learn about it, just please don't make me come in to the office.

What models are you using, on what type of codebases, with what tools?

I feel the same way. In general, I prefer working on a couch with my laptop. My eyes aren't great and I end up ruining my posture at a desk, invariably.

Their decision to... use AI for coding?

"...the system described here does it all automatically: It proposes optimizations using LLMs, formally verifies safety properties, shadow-evaluates against real production traffic, and hot-swaps improved code into running services without human intervention or service restarts."

Next up: proportional fonts and font weights?

To increase the contrast of our sampling vector, we might raise each component of the vector to the power of some exponent.

How do you arrive at that? It's presented like it's a natural conclusion, but if I was trying to adjust contrast... I don't see the connection.

Maybe try finding a software engineering job at a place that also uses your scientific expertise. You may be able to find or create opportunities there. The position might not exist, but you can maximize your chances of something coming your way that needs both skill sets.

Which LLM was used to generate that post?

the real challenge is standardization and integration

In what sense? I'm a newbie, but curious because I'm working on stuff related to https://mesastandards.org/mesa-der-std/.

Absolutely not. It's not like there isn't a million other images that work just fine. It's a symbol (even if most people don't know) of the objectification of women, that is pervasive in a field that struggles enough with treating women fairly.

One of the "Hello, World" applications would be learning to classify MNIST digits. They have a tutorial on their site.

These communities aren't exclusively for Mormons. I think k he said gay people could hold some kind of leadership position.

Not sure what's implied by commune, but it seems like he welcomes people of other faiths in the community, even in leadership positions.

I have an MSI with Linux and Windows on it. I prefer to do everything in Linux and mostly only use Windows for games.

I'm a programmer, and working in Windows sounds kinda scary to me.

I don't think your question deserves the down votes.

Sounds like it. Our university web security lab was testing this.

Time to get a new password.

Blessing in disguise, I guess. Seems like MagicPython was better anyway. :)

And instead of writing MCMC samplers yourself, with probabilistic programming languages you can define a model and the language figures out how to do the sampling for you.

Pretty close to how I feel. It's not about the money - it's about personal progression and impact for me.

Upvoted to combat the lack of caring about honesty. Even if you don't have the money, stealing isn't justified.

So this is why they've been asking for donations? Made it seem like they're on the ropes.
