The class of models that Yann Lecun is bullish on (look up I-JEPA) do exactly this.

I really want to use helix but was turned off by the lack of Copilot support and the developers' contempt and holier than thou attitude towards people who use AI assisted coding.

In Zuck's interview with Lex he was talking about a text-based social media platform they Meta has been experimenting with recently. This would be a great time for them to try to acquire users

There are pills for beauty. Look at Kylie Jenner, you think that's all natural? In fact I'd say you have less control over intelligence then you do over beauty.

You're being ironic right?

The mediocre don't deserve to make a living?

> It's still just predicting the next word

Predicting the next word is a much deeper problem than people like you realise. To be able to be good at predicting the next word you need to have an internal model of the reality that produced that next word.

GPT-4 might be trained at predicting the next word, but in that process it learns a very deep representation of our world. That explains how it has an intuition for colours despite never having seen colours. It explains why it knows how physical objects in the real world interact.

Now, if you disagree with this hypothesis it's very easy to disprove it by presenting a problem to GPT4 that is very easy for humans to solve but not for GPT4. Like the Yann Lecun gear problem, which GPT4 is also able to solve.

In my experience of using LunarVim (which is also a preconfigured neovim). It is incredibly unstable. Plugins often don't work well with each other. Keybindings overlap. You do it with the hope of having fewer things to configure but what ends up happening is you create more config to disable slow default plugins, or add workarounds to existing ones. Updating neovim or lunarvim always breaks my config. These things aren't the least bit backward compatible.

I'm slowly switching to helix, and this time around will be forcing myself to use the defaults, and not adding a single line of config.

This isn't unique to duckdb. Almost all databases allow for sorting and joins of large tables that don't fit into memory.

Second this. The simplicity of getting a site up and running with surge.sh is just unmatched.

How long ago was this? There used to be a way to do this for earlier versions of Vimium but that doesn't work anymore. Very interested in knowing if it's still possible. Will check out superhuman.

The bfcache doesn't just store cached resources like static files but the entire javascript heap. It makes back button action instantaneous.

I've observed the effects on both Firefox and Chrome and it's like day and night.

On chrome you can even test it using Devtools > Application> backward forward cache

It's not possible to detect the presence of Vimium.

I've been using Vimium for quite some time now, and while I like it, there are two things which annoy the hell out of me.

Vimium disables the browser's backward-forward cache (by listening to the "unload" event), causing navigation to be much slower.

There is also no way for a website owner to warn a Vimium user of conflicting keybindings. I run a website which implements Vim keybindings and several of my users complain that it doesn't work. I have to remind them to disable Vimium. This issue has been open on their GitHub for more than 4 years with no end in sight.

I like the general idea behind it but you need to increase the pool of websites you're crawling by a lot.

I did not get any results for "Kardashians"

It itches me when people get pedantic about what to call things and take it upon themselves to define what an "actual" engineer is.

From Wikipedia: Engineers, as practitioners of engineering, are professionals who invent, design, analyze, build and test machines, complex systems, structures, gadgets and materials to fulfill functional objectives and requirements while considering the limitations imposed by practicality, regulation, safety and cost.

What part of this does not apply to software engineers? They can't go to jail therefore they're not engineers? What bullshit gatekeeping.

If and when the friction stops, it will not be because Elon Musk's ideas were successfully implemented. It will be when things go back to the way they were. It's fair to say that all of Musk's free speech experiments have failed to have the intended impact on twitter. If that's not failure then what is?

It's definitely not a slippery slope. Firstly it's a drop in the ocean for cloud providers. Secondly, there's some effort required in establishing whether it was a case of stolen credentials or not. Not everyone is going to put in that effort to lie. And finally, you're forgetting that most cloud users are enterprises and small business that have some moral compass and aren't going to lie to the cloud providers to their face.

My foo is "yo" and my bar is "ho"

If you are interested in on cutting edge research oriented work like development of models like GPT-3 and Stable Diffusion, then you should know that such opportunities are rare and limited to large FANG type companies. And you need to be super talented with a PhD from a top tier college.

The next group of ML practitioners are data scientists or ML engineers in smaller technology companies and startups. Their work involves applying advancements in these areas to improve their products or services. Very rarely do they do research oriented work. You could look into applying for such roles. An ML engineer role would be more suitable given your background. My advice would be to get your hands dirty and try to build a product on top of some ML model. It would give you some experience in model deployment and MLops type activities which companies often look for.

Are there terminal based keyboard first audio/video editors? Sort of like vim but for multimedia.

Hi joouha, I've been using Euporie since you first launched it in HN. Great to see you've made a console version of it.

Had a question. Is it possible to go back and edit previous cells in the console?

For me that's the biggest limitation of terminal IPython and it seems to be a result of the design of the terminal itself.

Also is there any way to contact you? I want to discuss where things are headed and how I can contribute.

You could literally say that about anything.

The world is falling apart and people are worried about Nim compiler version 2.0. Talk about misplaced concerns.

The world is falling apart and people are worried about who wins champions league this year. Talk about misplaced concerns.

Where exactly is the line for you? What if this article began with a picture of a guy with his dick out fucking a pig that had a picture of an airport drawn on it. Would that still be acceptable? Because if its not then I have to say. The world is falling apart...

Prudish? What are you even talking about? I said I found the article interesting and have no problem reading it myself. I also use such language with my friends all the time. I'm not squeamish about it either. And no I'm not Christian, but even if I were why should it matter?

I don't want to share it with others. These others include young kids and a parent who has an interest in construction. We don't cuss at home, and I've never cussed in front of them. Similar situation for most families in my country.

What I'm saying is that by choosing to use language like this (which is COMPLETELY unnecessary btw, and kinda lazy tbh) you're preventing me from sharing it.

There's a reason why serious newspapers don't publish such headings. They cater to a wide demographic, and not everyone is ok with reading such language, and I don't see what's wrong in that.

Why can't such interesting articles be published without the unnecessary profanity? It actually prevents me from sharing it with a lot of people.

Why should I use this instead of SQL?

>> "To be fair"

You're joking right? It's not fair. It's capitalism.

I noticed that the dollar value on this page is not income, instead it's the dollar value of the consumption per adult in the family and adjusted for purchasing power parity.

That means that if there are two households in India and USA, and both have an "income" of 1000 USD, their consumption is similar. However it's very likely that the Indian households has significantly less actual income because stuff in India is cheaper. This also means that for goods that cost almost the same around the world e.g. an iPhone would be more affordable for American household.

A terminal based IDE that has quick startup time, vim's keybindings and plugin ecosystem, and just works out of the box without me spending hours on configuration.

I'm currently using LunarVim, which is poorly documented, painful to install, update and configure, and with lots of tiny issues that I've spent hours trying to fix. But, it's still the best thing out there!

I would pay a ton of money to whoever can solve this problem.

Another thing I would pay money for is a terminal based python REPL that resembles a jupyter notebook. The IPython repl doesn't cut it for me and is missing a bunch of features, and projects like Euporie are missing things that I like in IPython. So something that borrows the best of both worlds would be incredible.
