GLM 5.2 vs. Opus 1 month ago

My understanding was that n-shot prompting just referred to the number of examples included in a prompt, not the number of prompts to achieve the desired result.

"Build a 3D platformer game from scratch, in raw WebGL, with no game engine or 3D library" would be a zero-shot prompt.

GitHub Stacked PRs 3 months ago

'Large pull requests are hard to review' is a good reason to keep PRs small, but small PRs also encourage continuous integration/delivery/deployment. Stacked PRs sound like they encourage long-lived feature branches instead.

This thread [1] on Zuckerberg from 7+ years ago doesn't look too different. Top comments saying it's "pretty cringe-y", another posting an image from Reddit and some "Twitter bingo cards". The nature of the situation doesn't really offer much for deep analysis, but the discussion yesterday [2] on the product itself seems fine to me. You might disagree since people are more skeptical rather than being glad Meta is pushing it.

Yes, considering it was ~2 years from freezing withdrawals to the approved bankruptcy plan to repay customers.

FTX was only able to repay customers because the value of BTC increased during that time. But customers were only repaid the value of their portfolio at the time of the collapse.

If I steal your money, invest it, then return the principal amount after 2 years, would you consider it financial harm?

Incredibly difficult to estimate this, in large part because the probabilities are so small.

The UN chief has been stating that the risk of nuclear warfare is at the highest point in decades. Not because of the risk of a 'fuckup', but due to geopolitical tensions. Historically the risk has been highest during periods of geopolitical tension.

Honestly, we should look to fix the issues that lead to people depending on weed, alcohol, and other drugs instead.

It doesn't have to be exclusive or. People are looking to fix these issues. In the mean time, we don't have to ruin people's lives by convicting them as felons.

No one can simply state "I am not interested in Bitcoin" in a discussion without triggering some "response". Regardless of the merits of Bitcoin, or absence of them, that is fscked up. Red flag.

If the topic is some positive news about a technology (Bitcoin or otherwise), and your only contribution is "I am not interested in this" then you'll probably trigger a response. Might also be time to revisit the commenting guidelines.

There are ideology issues in every stream of education. I went to a religious high school where the majority of students came out of it as atheist/agnostic despite their parents or teachers intentions. I think that’s more valuable than reaching the same conclusion because your parents told you to.
