I was in the beta test for Jev—one fun way I've used it is as a kind of router that decides whether to process some chunk of text using deterministic rules, or to spend on a more expensive model. You can basically do cost discrimination instead of price discrimination! Quoting @CompleteSkeptic After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x cheaper (w/ output toke… Related

Co-founder of Sundial; former vice president of product design at Facebook; author of The Making of a Manager; writes The Looking Glass.
This question... I have spent far too many hours contemplating it. I have discovered multiple answers depending on how deep you want to go. The most pragmatic answer: you want to win a marathon, not a sprint. Too much sprinting makes you worse at marathons. The hard part, of course, is knowing how much is 'too much sprinting.' But in my experience, if the person thinks they need a break, they need a break (or, more extremely, they are not a good fit for the company.) Related

Web developer and writer; an early GitHub employee, author of speaking.io and of widely read essays on startups and product.
Every developer should volunteer for a non-profit on the side these days. There’s unlimited things to do, a magic tool for your knowledge that accomplishes things in minutes, and you learn a *ton* about a huge undervalued chunk of the world. Related

Palaeontologist at Queen Mary University of London; studies dinosaur behaviour and writes about what the fossil record can and cannot tell us.
Their words
They're relatively efficient compared to a lot of other things, and particularly compared to the herbivores, so that means they're probably looking at long distance rather than speed.

Pen name of the Canadian-American writer behind mrmoneymustache.com, a blog on frugality, early retirement and index-fund investing that has run since 2011.
Wow, have you seen the stock market lately? And by lately, I mean the past several years or more. The value of the S&P 500 index of stocks, where most of us hopefully have a good chunk of our retirement savings stashed into index funds, is up about fifty seven pe…

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.
