I'm curious how do people start writing longer novels.. what determines the length of it? Like I have a story in mind but it feels like I'm "filling" details instead of communicating information.
sometimes my devices will make noises that seem to go off for no reason. it really stresses me out though, I can't help but always think something is doing it and if it's not me, then what?
oh, I may not be able to get this since i am too young to purchase anything online and I lack the funds. I will definitely urge my family to get it though, because I do constantly have issues of hearing things or believing someone is watching me

Sure, thatโs what I do. Iโm not sad for it, itโs actually great to be able to put my very small dent in a few things. But exhausting it is nevertheless.

Glad you're still a part of it, it's all performing, really.
My meetings were useless. I was the youngest guy there, didn't have much to do but practise my doodling.

Brikka.
Someone on HN mentioned it as great design. I looked it up and bought it after a while. It's been such a delight. Even the occasional brew gone wrong adds to the experience.
v60 is also nice when I need it to slow down or be the experience a bit meditative. But Chinese tea is the best for that.
i just get lazier and lazier over time. now it is a portafilter espresso machine, DeLonghi Dedicated, along with a separate grinder, Baratza Encore.
what I love is try out regional types of coffee, but this then always outside, and on travels.
Made another important decision to remove all counters โ notes, replies, following, followers โ from both people and hashtags, so you focus on the content not the numbers. It was creating competition which feeds the dopamine system, which we have exhausted and try to avoid. #meta
. I like the design.

Do you code in silence or do you listen to music? If so, what kind of music do you prefer? Personally, I prefer Synthwave, vaporwave or the occasional country.
I can recommend rainwave.cc if you want an online radio for video game music. I tend to hang around there quite often and listen to their chiptune station.
depends on my mood and inner state
sometimes just silence
sometimes background from mynoise .net
sometimes a punk rock web radio
sometimes my music collection (I stream myself, that's right). mostly punk rock again.
very occasional let YouTube run starting from something I like
These days Ive been learning how to deal with guilt and feeling gulti about things I didn't cause. NGL is hard man, how do you start cntl-z your brains on that
It's one of the sad ironies of this computer stuff that the simpler solutions take longer to conceive than the complicated ones.

not marketing. yes their jobs positively select for concern about ai, but most people that are actively researching the field are concerned about the current state of safety, pace and incentives. I dont agree with a lot anthropic does, but i do believe the employees take safety seriously and they obviously have a better understanding of it than us. also theres no incentive for someone like coxon to sound alarm bells on twitter for "marketing" reasons, after quitting anthropic
Yes, but some people say that they are pushing for market regulation. They want the state to protect them from the chinese models and, also, to protect the massive investments in Anthropic, OpenaAI, et al. that these companies will never be able to return. This sounds plausible to me too.
Maybe but it would be convenient for them if they were the only ones allowed to train new models. I think that's much more likely what they're interested in.
read darios latest post. its not what they are after. its really not that complicated, the technology is simply if development continues to race as it is right now. they are already doing most of what they can to stop china from ai dev.
