I see a Notion example in Langchain, I assume you guys did something similar. Do you know if there is maximum size of documents that it supports?

First time I hear about it, but just checked it out - seems pretty cool, but you still need to feed some model into it right? Many examples seem to use OpenAI.

I see a bunch of apps using LLMs popping out like mushrooms in a forest, but how do you fine-tune it for your dataset? The biggest (GPT-3 davinci) model on OpenAI is not available for fine-tuning.

Would be cool to know some technical details, like are you fine-tuning GPT-3 on Open AI or built something yourself on top of an open source pretrained model?

In USSR my grandfather's parents were stripped of everything they had and sent to Siberia with nothing but the cloth they were wearing.

Skip a few years, my grandfather was the youngest doctor of science (in Russia that's next level from PhD) in his city in the field of Nuclear Physics and during his life was a dean in 3 different universities and a head of another one.

My 2nd grandfather was born in a village and had to tend for his younger sisters because his two older brothers were fighting in WW2 (and died there).

Skip a few years and he taught himself engineering and later became a head of a department in a big spaceship construction factory that employeed 10s of thousands of people, was doing research, travelled whole of soviet union overseeing testing of spaceship componponents.

Both died in poverty a few years ago: doing any government jobs in Russia is extremely unrewarding if you are an honest man.

(and here I am doing stupid crap in Javascript and Ruby earning 50 times what they did).

As a Russian last year I learned that any money in a bank are not really yours.

Russian government banned withdrawing USD/EUR from ATMs while Mastercard and Visa banned using their cards.

Your balanace ended up being a number in the app.

Cashless - no thanks.

would be cool if there was an API

These new ARM chips are almost perfect, the only bad part is... ARM.

Most backend devs these days use Docker, and serious Docker usage on M1/M2 macs isn't really possible due to bugs and super slow performance.

I was doing benchmarks and for our workloads images would build several times slower as well as our test suites.

We had many devs in our company buy the shiny macbooks only having to return them due to incompatibilities with Docker.

My computer journey was Windows -> Linux -> Macos, now more than decade later I am returning back to Windows, because WSL is a total blessing.

Most air conditioners I encountered (as a person from a cold country) had this option. The Samsung one I have works from -15C (which is really not that cold, but still). Is this the same technology just for even colder tempreratures?

I am lost.

Are heat pumps the same thing as split air conditioners that can heat air?

My wife has just got better from a case of pneumonia that developed rapidly within several hours. If not for antibiotics...

We are back to medieval times if antibiotics stop working.

it's actually possible to download a list of all domains in .com TLD. Google for how to download domains from ICANN. I think it takes like a day to your request approved.

I want to love Mozilla and Firefox as it promotes diversity and standards for the web, but god do I hate Mozilla's marketing.

It's completely outrage driven and feeds on fearmongering: "google bad, we good, give us money".

Having spoken to people who work at Mozilla they say the management is pretty toxic which makes me think they are being hypocrites with their message.

Testosterone increases desire to maintain high social status.

If that can be achieved through aggression - a person going to do just that, if that is achieved through team play and compassion, the person would do it instead.

As Robert Sapolsky said, it is sad that in our society aggessive behaviour is the one that leads to success.

Zebra stripes are basically an adversarial pattern for Neural Net in a fly's brain.
