Past year's personal projects that went viral: Yet I'm poor and can't get an interview :S how do I solve this?

replied to:

personal projects probably just arent the right knob if you want to get unpoor. if you want my honest advice i would recommend not showing hallucinate to potential employers, its landing page looks one-shot claude and is gpu heavy. but the others look very nice.

replied to:

nice to hear though! did you like it? living in berlin for 6 years now

replied to:

loved it, I visit whenever I can, it's my favorite place on earth :D tried to live there many times, even had a job two times but it didn't work out. The air is different.

replied to:

its a rough but very lovable place i agree ^^ maybe youll find your way back!

Do your stuff well, with love, and life will sort it out.

By the way, I visited the rave and it is a good party! The current DJ is blowing it. I already have a soundtrack for today.

Textlog for me is a meditation to slow down. It somehow nudges me towards working on my penmanship.

replied to:

Only images of handwriting allowed? I share this sentiment about textlog entirely. All my other social feeds are so "information" dense and distracting.

At a philosophical level, can we have nice things?

…

replied to:

I want this expanded and enacted by one of those guys doing Jordan Peterson impersonations :D

replied to:

And kermit the frog sardonically

replied to:

I think yes, but precisely NOT "at a philosophical level". You can have it only if you get your hands dirty and build it yourself. I think already proved this, just as a close example.

replied to:

entropy says no

…

replied to:

If speaking on a philosophical level, then first we have to ask: what’s “nice” and what’s “to have” 👀

replied to:

If you consider what you have nice, you can have nice things. If your expectations to your surroundings are very very low, you will be amazed with all the nice things you get from people you meet through your day. My personal approach.

Beautiful day with local community. Lots of physical labor, all my joints are swollen, back sore, soles of my feet aching, but a beautiful day of people working together and recognizing what a special group we have.

I notice that language models are much better at programming than at writing. This is largely because, in programming, they have a closed feedback loop that allows them to find errors. Writing is much more complicated because the feedback is much more diffuse and delayed over time. In fact, it is often not well-defined.

continued:

What is the function that determines whether a poem is good? This means that models do not know how to think; they lack judgment. If they do not know how to think, it means that we humans are still essential. In fact, even when programming, you have to stay right on top of them. My conviction is that this will not change.

continued:

They will become increasingly useful, but they will never be able to replace the human who defines objectives and evaluates the quality of the work. All these news stories claiming that AI is going to kill us all are stupid. Humans will always be able to turn off the machine.

In three years Cyberdyne will become the largest supplier of military computer systems. All stealth bombers are upgraded with Cyberdyne computers, becoming fully unmanned. Afterwards they fly with a perfect operational record. The Skynet Funding Bill is passed. The system goes online on August 4th, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defence. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14am, Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

Windows 8 szintű elbarmolást látok (na, jó, Windows 8.1), nekem amúgy kihívás a bonyolultabb kezelőfelület, ha a szoftver maga jól működik, de már a kezdet sem alakul túl jól, a Windows-nak új filozófiai szlogent találtam ki, ami egy magyar mondás is: "Ez van, ezt kell szeretni."

I see Windows 8-level nonsense (well, Windows 8.1), for me the more complicated interface is a challenge, if the software itself works well, but the beginning is not going too well, I came up with a new philosophical slogan for Windows, which is also a Hungarian saying: "This is it, you have to love it."

Vår konges livsgjerning går mot slutten, landet samler seg for å ta farvel med en konge som har vært samlende og god for landet. Må Gud velsigne hans minne og hans etterfølger.

Our king's life's work is coming to an end, the country comes together to say goodbye to a king who has been unifying and good for the country. May God bless his memory and his successor.
