The difference in the dates example seems right to me 20 October 2024 and 2024-20-10 are not the same.

Months in different locales can be written as yyyy-MM-dd. It can also be a catalog/reference number. So, it seems right that their embedding similarity is not perfectly aligned.

So, it's not a tokenizer problem. The text meant different things according to the LLM.

Improving OKRs 2 years ago

IMHO, cascading is OKRs' real power. It forces the organization to say no to most things, which sharpens its focus on what needs to be done.

Throw that away, setting aligned SMART goals would achieve a similar effect as aligned OKRs.

OKRs Are Bullshit 2 years ago

Helping teams know what to say "no" to is the real power of OKR.

You do that by having the entire organization's O and KR roll up and cascade down. My Objectives directly roll up to my parent organization's Key Result. My parent org's Objectives rolls up to their parent's KR, and so on to the top. Then, you have the top-level check downwards if the sets of OKRs still make sense in their entirety.

Unfortunately, I have never seen any organization I was with ever do this...

Never liked the way these problems are worded.

`You take a random ball out of the urn—it’s red—and discard it.`

How normal people read it: Given this specific instance where you just discarded a red ball from this urn, what's the probability of the next ball?

How it expects you to read it: Given infinitely many random samples from the urn. For cases where you get red, remove it, then take a second sample. What's the probability of the next ball, given all the samplings?

Is it terrible at the content or the delivery of the content? I find it to be bad at the prior but rather useful for the latter.

If you asked chatgpt to generate a document, its generates one that reads well but has terrible content. Eg. Super broad or just plain contradictory. But given some not so well written piece of writing, it can clean that up fairly well.
