Can anyone measure in how Claude compares to copilot? Copilot feels like a fancy auto complete, but people seem to have good experiences with Claude, even in more complex settings.
That's a good point. For more complex topics, the act of verifying correctness is also more complex. I think it's a fair tradeoff though. A more powerful tool also requires more work to use CORRECTLY. Now, whether people will actually put in due diligence is another matter.
This doesn't seem much different to me than how people should use wikipedia. It looks like it will be a useful tool to use, you just can't be careless.
That must be one of the more extreme examples. I'm probably being under compensated at the moment, but about half of recruiters reaching out are matching my salary.
I'm just an engineer with no background in finance, but didn't a fair part of the 2008 collapse come about by trusted third party risk auditing that went bad? Rather than maintaining a centrality of trust at some level, it seems intuitive that if there is a public database with trust decentralized among all the participants, there is less of a chance for that trust to be abused.
I used to work in concrete construction, doing post tensioned and SOMD for elevated slab. Coring might be simpler for SOMD, but post tensioned has such a high density of cables that I don't think it would work.
This is an issue that makes me feel conflicted in the case where there are already a lot of people cheating. If there's already a lot of people cheating, it doesn't make practical sense not to cheat, you're really just putting yourself at a big unfair disadvantage, and making an inefficient use of energy that could be used else where. It's unethical to join in the cheating, but a situation like that feels like there's just a lot of arguments to cheat. I think making the best of that situation would be to participate in the cheating but also make the best effort to understand the material as opposed to leveraging cheating to min-max on effort-grade.
On the other hand, all the effort could pay off in an unexpected way down the line because all the cheaters pushed you to achieve more than you would have normally, plus the ethical implications.
Full disclosure, I did have a situation where cheating like that happened, and I did take it. It was for a pretty irrelevant course, and I don't feel bad at all about it. I also haven't made much use of the course material afterwards.
This was back when I was a student and had the FX and one GPUs. Getting an internship meant that I had the money for an upgrade, and the cheapest, most straightforward was to get a second GPU, or so I thought. Wasn't even that cheap because I had to put both the GPUs under water to keep them from overheating when both in the same PC.
For a bit of time, I ran an over clocked FX 8320 and crossfire 7970's. The heat that machine put out was tremendous. I only had a wall mounted AC unit so I had to practically take my shirt off when I loaded it up.
