  • The dog pees or poos on the floor? You take them to the pee, you point their face at it, tell them “no!” in a stern voice, then put them where they’re supposed to go.

    If you don't give the feedback immediately, the dog is not going to be able to properly connect to the action of peeing/pooping, but rather the existence of the urine/poo being agitating to the human.

    You gotta catch them in the act and provide the feedback immediately for it to be effective.

  • Probably because they are not one of the FAANG-companies, but yeah, they are indeed pretty bad.

    I think Amazon is the undisputed leader in having a reputation as a PIP-factory though

  • It's basically pointless to try to provide feedback to the dog if it's not immediately when the action you want to influence happened.

    Make sure to provide direct feedback to the dog (food reward for encouraging behaviour, commands in negative tone when discouraging) immediately when it happens, and they will eventually understand, in my experience.

  • It is a sign of the times that Amazon gets to call this fair use

  • There does indeed seem to be some level of disproportionality going on here, yeah.

  • No, that was never the case. Anthropic got told in court that using copyrighted works that they had legally procured for model training was fair use, but since they had used a pirated data set, they got ruled against - there's no fair use protection for things you haven't actually bought. Subsequently, they settled that lawsuit for $1.5B

  • When I worked at Apple, I remember seeing code that was 15 years old

  • As opposed to the high-value "didn't read, commented anyways based on the vibes of the title of the post", who clearly contribute massive value to the community

  • Looks a lot like the Swedish dish Smörgåstårta (Sandwich Cake), which is not uncommon to be served at parties.

    It's really quite tasty! Also quite convenient for parties since you can buy a few in the deli section of well-stocked supermarkets.

  • Thermoelectric is hilariously inefficient, so you can't really use it for electricity production, once it's served its purpose of turning the turbines.

    What you can do with spill heat is to reuse it in district heating networks to provide hot water. And heating, of course, but there's no use for that during heat waves

  • But it's a sizable and growing factor so trying to make out like it's not a good reason to not support using big LLMs is nonsensical.

    At what point have I expressed support for the use of LLMs?

    Have whatever opinions you want on LLMs, but do not poison conversations on the actual causes behind our climate problem.

  • It's not nothing, that's for sure. It's also unequivocally not the main factor.

  • It's quite literally 0.1% of emissions globally.

    It's perfectly fine to be against AI for whatever reason you so happen to choose, but to call it one of the main factors behind climate change is beyond inaccurate

  • On AI Coding and Its Discontents - Cal Newport

    Jump

  • Are you seriously positing that AI is one of the main factors driving climate change?

  • Why Is Everyone In Tech So Sad?

  • It can certainly be someone working in tech, in particular a startup founder.
