Also having issues pushing...

Can you speak more to why you think taxes are barbaric? Is there an alternative?

They strike me as one of the cornerstones of civilization. I.e. the state builds things that are for the common good using those resources.

Did it reason though? My understanding is that these models just give back the answer best statistically connected to the input text.

I find stars helpful when I'm evaluating several different repos to choose a particular tool for a job.

If one of the repos has many more stars, I weigh that strongly when choosing. Freshness of commits is definitely important, but for me the fact that many other people starred the repo shows that there are eyeballs and activity.

Definitely not good. You don't want this sort of thing floating around.

Wasnt this issue caused because SVB bought a long term, illiquid instrument?

I.e they made a rather individual choice to lock up most of their assets this way. Does that actually suggest this is more broadly systemic?

It looks like there was a little movement in the space not too far back:

But I don't know how often this is used in production. I've ended up training the models in python and then loading them in Ruby.

To me, that's actually one of the most optimistic parts. The author is willing to build what markets want, not a passion project, which is a turning point.

I remember chatting with you about your recipe app at the IndieHackers meet up in NYC. Man, what a journey from there to here!

Pretty neat! So it looks like you have a few things happening in parallel. What is instruction level paralellism and how does it speed the sort up?

The richest man in babylon - a book of parables about an ancient babylonian who accumulated wealth - is a fun read and a nice way to pick up some essential concepts in an entertaining way.

You love to see the continued investment in this language. I've been using Ruby for about a decade and I'm still enjoying writing code in it. I hope the language continues to improve and the community stays vibrant.

I can remember about 8 years ago someone telling me how they were worried Ruby (and Rails) was dying. At this point the community could dry up and I think I'd still stick with it.

There are probably partners who have significant reach, and would be interested in a revenue share with your platform, or maybe a white-labeling solution. HumbleBundle, or something along those lines comes to mind.

It could be useful to graph things on a server where you don't have a graphical desktop. Graphing CPU performance is a common example.

The FAA has risk reduction baked into it's very heart and soul and this is evident the more you learn about how the system operates (go look at a flying textbook).

It is not perfect organization, but I think it deserves more credit than it is receiving in this thread.

You could (should?) ask others in your company at the C-Level to give you a high level briefing on what they work on, and how they think about their work. They may also have favored books, materials etc.

Coming from a technical background where you've likely had to understand and work on complex structures, I think you're well positioned to understand the structures in your organization.

Neat platform. I think geopolitics, currently is, and will likely be a heavy driver of market moving events over the next couple of decades.

Any plans to support that space more deeply?

I'm picturing Bob Ross standing over this palette whispering "We're going to put a happy little div here with a shade of cornflowerblue".

I built https://topstonks.com, it was one of the early sources of information during the meme stock craze, and a primary source for several major news outlets.

"These are the Version 6 sources for trek. They must be modernized before trek will compile. Everything is under SCCS ready for some willing person to come along. Documentation is in ./doc. Kirk McKusick 3/25/83"

Who's going to step up?

This assumes that the human mind can continue to expand and hold increasing amounts of information, right?

Is that something that we know for sure?

There have been some interesting ML gems rolled in the past few years:

Any thoughts on what the Ruby community would need to build in order for it to become an attractive tool for AI work?

Very cool. There are some really interesting opportunities to integrate stable-diffusion into many creative apps right now. It's neat to see it all happening at once.

Another interesting example of how stable-diffusion could be integrated into a workflow: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/wys3w5/app...

So many applications...

I'm actually working on a product that identifies catalysts via AI and presents them (currently through text, possibly through API and imagery later). Drop me a line if you'd like to chat more about this space.

"I do believe this content is relevant when helping us all prepare for what might be coming next in 2023 and beyond. Happy reading."

Anybody want to hazard a guess as to what that will be?

That first article just reads like scare porn, calibrated to maximize clicks, while being light on actual substance.

It looks like the author has a history of writing like this. I wonder what her track record of being "right" is?

Yep, it's been a game changer and I happily spent the money.

As someone who has strong programming intention, but is not always able to easily remember syntax, or visualize a solution, it's been a force multiplier.

We're working with AI to help human writers write financial content, and we're not far off rolling our own models. Is that too run-of-the-mill for this? We do have some traction.

Hey! This looks a lot like my old project https://oppslist.com - open them side by side ;)

(which I no longer maintain, and yes I know it throws a warning when you open it)

Best of luck with the platform! It's an interesting space, but a challenging one.

This reads like scary marketing material designed to get you buying products.

For what it's worth, I think it's important to be prepared, and I can understand how someone would look at the financial system and feel uneasy.

But I'm not sure that a financial system collapse necessarily implies a complete collapse along all the other vectors the author mentions.
