Do you mind sharing why Go ballooned to 1M?

They're not mutually exclusive. You can exercise regularly and still have a substance abuse problem. In fact, substance abuse is a major problem amongst high-performing athletes [1]

The verdict was reached in December 1991. A lot of sampling has gone on since then.

It's just a large language model trained on textual content. It's not going to hurt you.

Do you have to wait until every product you use is bureaucratically vetted?

This was true for me too, but I'm starting to find the data's cutoff date a problem, and it gets worse every day. I was reminded about it yesterday when it knew nothing about the new programming language Mojo or recent voice conversion algorithms.

The eventual winner will have a model that stays up-to-date.

I get that AGI has a formal definition, but if I take the words "Artificial General Intelligence" on their own, I would say they describe GPT4 perfectly. It can plan my holiday, write a cover letter, code up scripts, explain music theory to me, etc. It is artificial, clearly a form of intelligence, and has a general application.

Fair enough, but the housing prices in the area will take a huge hit while the non-supporters move out. It would be political suicide for a local government to support it.

Here's a source from a recent Australian survey:

"...asked whether respondents agreed or disagreed with the statement "I would be comfortable living close to a nuclear power plant", only 28% agreed and 60% disagreed." [1]

The part about it being due to uninhabitable cities (referring to Chernobyl, Pripyat and Fukushima) was conjecture - I don't know people's reasons for it.

It's not environmentalists who are anti-nuclear; it's everyday people. Many don't want to live near a nuclear power station. [1]

Perhaps making multiple cities uninhabitable was bad publicity for nuclear power?

The definition of a continent is a continuous expanse of land. So technically, Australia is a continent, and Oceania is a region [1].

It seems that parts of the world refer to regions as continents.

I think the website linked might be a tip of the hat to the Turkington cut of Deck of Cards. It wouldn't be the first time; I've seen many other websites posted here that mention "codes", which insiders know are references to another of Gregg's characters, the great agent Kinkton from Decker Classified (15 minutes run time).

I use GPT4 many times a day. Instead of Googling for an answer, I will ask GPT4. Often, I will describe a function I want and have GPT4 write it. I use it to reformat strings, summarise text, and perform many other functions.

It is the most useful tool I have ever used as a programmer. It's absolutely not a "hype train".

In this interview [1] with Ilya Sutskever, he indicates that they aren't even close to tapping out of data.

The rule is one username per physical body, even if multiple identities are sharing it.

That is exactly what came to mind for me.

The difference is: I paid for Windows, but I didn't pay for tomshardware.com.

This will surely be the year of the Linux desktop.

The short-form video algorithms like TikTok, IG Stories, YouTube stories etc., seem to be masterfully tuned to figure out what you're insecure about and then harass you with content that reinforces that message.

It would have been poisonous to my adolescent brain.

Just rap vocals in this version. We are working on integrating our singing models for a future release.

Someone's family was nearly killed due to a defect in a product made by one of the largest technology companies of our time. It seems very Hacker News worthy to me.

I agree. I refuse to stop working. No matter how old I get, I intend to wake up every day to code and solve problems.

Very minor improvements: adding an extra rep every few weeks or so.

I won't be winning any CrossFit competitions, but I feel much better than not working out at all. I would love to push myself a bit harder, but this is the only way I've managed to stay consistent over the long term.

Have you tried Ring Fit Adventure? It seems like exactly the game you're after.

I walk my dog for an hour every morning; then, I will come back and do strength training in my living room. That's usually one or two exercises from a pool of bodyweight exercises like pull-ups, push-ups, jumping squats, rock presses, jumping lunges or burpees. I typically go for total count rather than sets and keep trying to improve how many I can do in a row without taking a break. I alternate exercises each day to rest muscle groups. Then I stretch and get on with my day. I do this every day unless sick or injured. I usually get this done within 5 to 10 minutes.

I've experimented with doing longer workouts at the gym 2-3 times a week, but my brain is good at using time shortages as excuses to skip workouts. Eventually, weeks go by without doing any workouts at all.

If I can get my workout done in the time it takes me to go to the toilet, I can never tell myself I don't have enough time for them. Doing it daily forces my brain to quickly normalise it as part of my routine.

They said that in the opening paragraph: "We are sorry to say that the app's sudden and undignified demise is due to an unannounced and undocumented policy change by an increasingly capricious Twitter". That sentence links to this post which explains in more detail what happened: https://blog.iconfactory.com/2023/01/state-of-the-twitterver...

This comment feels a bit out of place on a post about part of Twitter being down.

I'm not sure how much this matters, but Replica is already the name of a company: https://replicastudios.com

Horse meat is a staple at sushi restaurants across Tokyo.

Thank 'em.
