Nowadays, I often see people say they have access to unlimited tokens. Usually for work, although in response to https://t.co/BuzKs79xk5, someone from Microsoft said they have unlimited tokens for personal projects. I wonder what this means in practice. Surely there's a limit?

Rather than thinking of this set of preferences as incoherent, or merely the expression of a sectional petty bourgeois interest, it makes more sense, surely, to view it as a coherent set of anti-systemic views.

I predict that in the next 10 years software development will survive, but it will become like any other white-collar professional work. No more $200,000 salaries, unlimited vacation, or incredible employee bargaining power.

Their words
I think the skill nowadays is less about prompt engineering and more about figuring out how do you give Claude a hard task that seems a little bit too hard. And then how do you make it possible for Claude to verify its work along the way? And the verification I think is probably the single most important thing that people do not get right

I think evals, they outlive the harness a little bit, but not by that much. Like an eval might live for maybe one, two, three model generations, but nowadays the you know, we're on the exponential. The model is improving so quickly, very often we just saturate the eval, and then we have to throw it away, and we have to come up with a new eval.

China's cultural and intellectual output to the world is far smaller than its economic weight.Their words
It surely does not “produce” one quarter of world culture or intellectual activity (if the latter is defined as influential books, of fiction and non-fiction, politics, history; films, plastic arts, music, theater etc.)

But in terms of like features, like a website like you can just throw features in there nowadays that nobody really cares about and you can you can do it so quickly. Like a new feature every single day, but do people actually care about that? Is that making it better? It could be making things worse.

And the question nowadays is less about like how to build because if you can describe the problem in the solution you want, usually AI can do it. Maybe not today, but maybe like two or three years from now on they can do a lot of those. The question is like what to build because we talk about like yes, if something exists, right? AI can replicate it.

You can staff a school with the best teachers on earth, give them unlimited resources, and wrap the place in every evidence-based intervention imaginable, and it still won’t work if students are resistant, disengaged, or actively hostile to the enterprise.

Nomonhan, 1939: The Red Army Victory that Shaped World War IITheir words
Perhaps that Goldman makes, at times, too strong a case for the importune of the Nomonhan war, but the conflict surely deserves much more that the oblivion into which it seems to have been consigned by political historians.

OresteiaTheir words
His thoughts on human psychology and the way he crafted his stories are why I liked this book. I have to admit, there is a lot in it that I need to absorb. I'll surely be re-reading this one sometime soon. It's one of those books that one ought to read multiple times in life because I'm certain that every time we read it, it will offer something new.

The app costs a few dollars up front and then has an optional subscription for unlimited requests, but I would recommend going directly to OpenAI’s developer dashboard, creating your own account, and copy/pasting your own API key into Petey.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
