As much as I understand their decision, I hope they didn't stop. I don't use Facebook myself but now I am worried YouTube now knows that if they try a bit harder uBO would just give up.

> I'll risk sounding antagonistic and ask you this: if LLMs are not "good enough", why are they still around?

To quote the parent commenter:

> They seem to be able to solve the immediate problem,

but not long term

As many have pointed out, I think the cartel is just using the engineering perspective for justification. If avoiding racing to the bottom is the goal, the rule could be that "no one can advertise a lifetime longer than 1000 hrs" as opposed to actually limiting the lifetime.

Oh, I solved this long time ago by only opening the discussion page, never read tfa, and pretend I did. /s

I am not up-to-date in this area, and not necessarily that I don't trust you, but do you have a source for this? Just curious.

I cannot agree more. Cloudflare has some services that are really cheap (r2) to lure you into their worker "ecosystem", which is just serverless. Once you are vendor locked into their absolute garbage custom JavaScript runtime, you are pretty much forced to use their distributed database Cloudflare KV if you want good performance. Cloudflare KV is so extremely ridiculously absurdly expensive that make predatory pricing of vercel that HN likes to complain about feel like child play.

And every PR turns into a triple recursive reverse merge.

Oh that's why. I didn't connect the dots until I see your message. I had like 5 vscode open and all of them were spamming GitHub PR extension requiring login alert at me.

Frequency of actions matter, especially for security changes. If we are talking about git, I agree. If we are talking about npm, I bet 95%+ times people install packages in order to use them, not just to admire the code.

Someone else in this thread mentioned that npm can be used to manage pure front end libraries, which is a fair point.

I don't get it. How does this help with anything? You pull in a dependency to use it, right?

People are so different. When I was in college, if I had an unsolved problem, I could not fall asleep.

There are explicit residual connections in a transformer block. Look up "residual connections" in Google images and you will see.

Thanks for the explanation. Honestly, your explanation is better than the entire video. - I watched it in full and got really confused. I completely missed the part where he said the light is pulsing at 30kHZ and was really puzzled at how he is able to move the mirror so fast to cover the entire scene.
