The whole point is that powers don't matter. Orders do.

I was just looking for that to post it! Instead google started trying to come up with its own Dr.Seuss themed parser combinator examples.

Also, I wish I had been exposed to stuff like that my first semester of CS.

Can't wait for these things to endanger my family's life on some Colorado mountain highways. If the suction works at speed, people are gonna drive even more recklessly.

Honestly, who are you talking to and what are you reading? Most Ukrainians I've met, my parents, their friends, refugees we've met: just want the Russians to go home.

Maybe this is covered by (3) but I would also want extensive coverage regarding using the tools for therapy or life advice. One of the hallmarks of being a teenager is "not being understood", which coincidentally is one thing LLMs will dole out in abundance.

Feedback, criticism, and guidance on your convictions and behavior from other thinking and feeling human beings is important.

For sure! Still more money than I can fathom bringing in if software engineering went away tomorrow.

Your solution to childcare is permanent unemployment?

This is Denver rent actually, and increasingly most urban centers.

Did you graduate yesterday? Have you actually lived in the world?

My unmet needs are $2.5k rent and $2k childcare, per month. Then there's food, healthcare, car payments. There is pretty much zero wiggle room for us.

This is cool! But also: am I wrong for thinking “Pareto frontier” is some pretty silly/clever marketing jargon? Is this common phrasing for basically saying: test performance per spend on tokens is decent?

The video game applications are truly pretty cool ... though I don't know who would admit to using such a tool in the current environment.

Some of the other things like the `Residential`, `Structure and Complex Shape`, and `Large Scale` seem like they'd need review by engineers to be useful in real world scenarios? Do architects just sketch whatever looks good as a first pass?

Citation of what? this was unpublished work! This computational blitz really just reads as "might makes right" on OpenAi's part... which isn't surprising, but they should probably be honest about what they've done here.

I don't know about the parent's project, but bit.trip runner immediately comes to mind for me!
