Maybe watch the video first he actually addresses a variety of scenarios including the one you mentioned

You can use full screen mode. (I asked my pi agent about this and it told me about it) That fixed the flicker issue for me

Oh and that will be the new default 'Full-screen mode by default'

Cause tech is controlled by MAGA.

This is wild

I've found how CNN map to visual cortex to be very clear. But I've always been a bit confused about how llms map to the brain. Is that even the case?

You have to be careful with nature. There are the scientific articles which are top of the line and written by deep experts.

Then you have the journalism side which is basically just another main stream news website. (I'm not even against main stream news but it's not the same as scientific articles)

You should probably have a requirements.txt file instead of just a list of requirements. It's often hard to tell which combination of package versions will 'actually' work when running these things

My guess is it will be like pascal or smalltalk, an important development for illustrating a concept but is ultimately replaced by something more rigorous

I kinda suspect it might be that chagpt is excellent at getting you to an "average" performance in any field.

My background is computational material science, but more on materials than the computational part. I have an ok broad knowledge of most CS topics but I'm always finding I'm playing catch up. My work also involves a lot of making research prototypes in areas I don't have time to get a proper background in.

For me GPT has had a transformative impact on my work.

For example I had a lot of projects that needed Docker. I have an ok idea of what Docker is and what i want to do with it. But, I don't have the time of a real software developer to learn the syntax and deal with subtle bugs or how to do basic things, e.g., "how do I ssh into my Docker container X"

I think I'm on the end of users that is best poised to make use of llms. A decent knowledge of what strategy i want to go for but don't know the tactics. And I'm mediocre enough at programming that the Llm can usually beat me. Another example, I would just never write any unit tests, not enough time. With llms I can get simple dirty tests done + I know enough about testing to filter out the bad ones and tune the best ones.

I see poor responders on two extremes on either side of me. People who really don't know what they are doing and can't prompt correct the llm into doing anything better. And people who really know what they are doing and are generally working on one tech stack/ project and don't need help getting dumb basics in place + have more time to write things themselves.

"Well, Stan, the truth is marijuana probably isn't gonna make you kill people, and it most likely isn't gonna fund terrorism, but, well son, pot makes you feel fine with being bored, and it's when you're bored that you should be learning some new skill or discovering some new science or being creative."

Not really a new problem:

Take this quote from George Orwell on the Spanish Civil War

"I saw newspaper reports which did not bear any relation to the facts, not even the relationship which is implied in an ordinary lie. I saw great battles reported where there had been no fighting, and complete silence where hundreds of men had been killed. I saw troops who had fought bravely denounced as cowards and traitors, and others who had never seen a shot fired hailed as the heroes of imaginary victories, and I saw newspapers in London retailing these lies and eager intellectuals building emotional superstructures over events that had never happened. I saw, in fact, history being written not in terms of what happened but of what ought to have happened according to various ‘party lines’. Yet in a way, horrible as all this was, it was unimportant."
