Does OpenAI also have access to all github repos via partnership with microsoft?

But why? when you become top contributor, there are many people who will report you, but there is no system for reporting someone for "good work".
Users with 100s of highly upvoted posts with 10s of thousands of karma, all their content gone! I had bookmarked some of the content.
As a result in Reddit, many top contributors across many subreddit have been banned by Reddit's AI.
what's interesting is, i DMed those subreddit Mods and asked them, why X who is top contributor is banned and those Mods told me they don't want him banned but reddit simply deleted all posts from that user and they can do nothing about it!
Imagine, subreddit specific mods setting a user as "approved user" only to have Reddit ban and delete all of their post.
I wish someone comes up with a Reddit alternative where content is owned by users and not "reddit" and banning someone requires a proper procedure, not just because Reddit Site Wide Mods did not like their content.
Haskell is great, once you write code, chance of certain kind of bugs appearing is very low.
Biggest problem i've is i develop on Apple Silicon and can't cross compile to x84 linux which is most common deploy platform for servers
Compare this is to Go, which is what i use for almost everything else, cross compile, copy to server and there you go! So simple.
this causes a lot of pain and suffering and slow development loop in Haskell.
I'd use Haskell for more things if someone solves this issue.
Please haskell community, come up with a way to solve this issue. It wouldn't be a problem if i've to install a JVM like we've for Java.
can this be used to make these style of videos from prompt?

I wasn't happy with how it turned out, so after making 3–4 videos I dropped the idea.
Later, I came across several different video styles that consistently kept me watching. That's when I realized what my videos were missing they simply didn't have the same ability to capture and hold attention.
But i never managed to generate those styles after dozens of attempts and gave up.
Style 1: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vGjrv2zjfsM
Style 2: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6KoRHpAZ4zk
These are the two styles that consistently keep me watching. I can't really describe them well in words, so I linked the videos directly to avoid losing important details in the translation from visual format to text.
Maybe someone with more experience in video production can explain what techniques are being used here and why they're so effective at holding viewers' attention.
For example, I have several posts that explain concepts in detail, with supporting images. They're written in Markdown, and I keep refining them until I'm confident that the average person can read them and immediately understand the concept.
The problem is that text is becoming a less popular medium for learning, while short form videos are increasingly being used to explain the same ideas.
From what I can tell, this tool only lets you provide a prompt. Can it turn my existing Markdown posts and images into videos, or is it mainly intended for generating videos from simple prompts? I'm looking for something that preserves the explanations I've already written rather than creating something entirely new.
Sometimes people link to our "guides", like this one https://macrocodex.app/knowledge/measure/bodyfat/
my app is in fitness field https://macrocodex.app/ and the people who use it are:
1. Bodybuilders
2. Overweight / obese / skinny fat / underweight individuals
3. General gym crowd
Bodybuilders, well they immediately understand the app on first impression.
One user told me he has kidney disease and asked if I could add a “low protein” diet mode, so he could reduce protein intake below standard recommendations. I had never faced this requirement before, but after hearing him out, I decided to add it. This is just one of the many interactions.
Then there is another group, people who have spent a long time being underweight or overweight and have started attributing it to genetics. I often see posts like “I am genetically fat” or “I am an ectomorph / hardgainer"; "I can’t gain weight no matter how much I eat” in subreddits and fitness groups. Don't you dare to call them out of anything, they'll get mad! but are willing to give app try especially if they hear about it from someone else.
They typically use it for 2–5 weeks, and then they start gaining or losing weight depending on their goal. They are genuinely surprised that it’s possible.
Once they start seeing results, they usually just keep going.
I am not particularly good at communication, nor a guy with social skill.
I run an app with 16,000 users and receive 2–5 support tickets per week. I read every one of them.
Around 20% of my app has been built based on user suggestions.
People are generally kind and promote my app across multiple platforms for free. I don't have any budget for marketing.
Users don't always show their appreciation with words. Instead, they show it by eagerly helping resolve issues providing clear steps to reproduce bugs, sending screenshots or videos, and responding quickly to follow up questions. I also regularly come across people recommending my app on Reddit or in YouTube comment sections, which often surprises me. :)
If you're supporting your users well, they're probably giving back in their own way too. :)
I was also offered money by supplement companies to promote supplements on our sub which I never accepted.
Unfortunately, reddit mod team is of no use, they cannot really tell who is high quality contributor vs who is getting nuked by fake accounts created by competitors/supplement companies etc...
some companies are marketing themselves as AI despite barely using AI and customers demanding AI and with a belief it's superior to anything else.
While i see the articles where they say average person hates AI?
which one is true?
Can you link evidence for this? I stay at 12% year around as male (confirmed via DEXA)
but bigger reason imho is that people overestimate calorie burn from exercises and fool themselves into thinking now it's OK to consume more food.
The title says they are focused on improving body composition which is boosting lean mass, lowering of fat mass which kinda seems achieved best by focusing on Hypertrophy and fat loss?
general prescription these days for Hypertrophy is 10 sets per muscle group per week 0-3 RIR.
TDEE rises as body weight rises (heavier body burns more)
Overfeeding increases NEAT in some people (more fidgeting, movement)
Basically, you walking 20,000 boosts your maintenance calories up, since
deficit = tdee (maintenance) - intake
Once you've lost the weight, there is no need to maintain "deficit" to stay at that weight when you do not understand something as simple as this. I’ve no doubt what you did was perhaps over-restrictive, which made you suffer.
which means no you do not need to walk 20K steps for life, nor you need to perma lower your calorie intake, you just need to eat at maintenance calories after getting to your target weight.
>There are people literally starving to death because they can't force themselves to eat and of course many more people eating until it kills them.
They are rare, so rare i don't run into them at all.
People with that low of maintenance calories are usually sedentary and undermuscled.
What happens if employees say no power tools are needed and after a few months a competition shows up with power tools and hires a bunch of noobs and beating your production numbers and sales?
Your employees simply may leave the company and work for them and learn the new culture at this new competitor.
Is there any law which prevents people from moving between companies? No? Then the promoters of that company are going to do what they think is fit to keep them in business and stay competitive. Many times they'll be wrong, sometimes they'll be right.
But models did not become good at coding just because coding is replayable. It’s because there are countless repos, issues, Stack Overflow threads, and Reddit posts/comments/questions where a solution is clearly marked as “solved” or “that helped,” and AI can learn from that feedback.
Being replayable does play a role because a solution can be tested against a compiler, and the resulting errors or lack of errors/warnings can reveal whether it worked.
This becomes much harder in fields like fitness, where changes take much longer and cause and effect relationships are not straightforward to establish.
Your muscle gain increased but was it because you increased protein intake? Or was it because you started eating more carbs, which added more energy to the system?
Once protein needs are already met, calories may become the limiting factor. In that case, the additional gains may come primarily from increased calorie intake rather than the higher protein intake itself.
AI is bad at fitness, evidently.
Many people forget, conversation with a model also generates training data. This is how your problems, algorithms, solutions end up in training data and end up right at your competitors without your competitor trying to actively steal your code.
I simply do not expose core algorithms which improve my product to AI agents.
People in pro sports take PEDs.
>can be very physically active and muscular but still pretty fat.
you can retain higher muscle mass at higher bodyfat% like Sumo Wrestler.
being lean limits amount of lean mass you can carry.
>Yeah I know bodybuilders manage to get jacked and many of them are doing nothing
bodybuilders who take PEDs do not easily gain fat because steroids change nutrition partitioning.
also, some bodybuilders take DNP, clen, t3 etc... but many bodybuilders also do hours of zone2 cardio.
You probably move much less than you used to. Metabolism slowing down with age is already known.
