I wonder when we’ll reach diminishing returns on new AI models. Haven’t tried Mythos or Fable yet but it seems like Anthropic is already priming itself for this by calling for a “slowdown” of AI development.
Equality is more expensive. It’s much easier to just cut advanced classes and shove the upper percentile students closer to the average in the name of having equal outcomes for all races.
Similar to other issues in this country, we like to address the symptoms of economic inequality instead of attacking it at the source.
I’m wondering the same. I’ve read multiple articles about formal methods and how they’ve been used to find obscure bugs in distributed systems, but usually they just show a proof and talk about formal methods without concrete examples.
People aren’t eating the right foods and not exercising enough. The cause is very simple, the solution is not. It’s hard to get millions of people to make lifestyle changes and that’s even assuming they have access to healthier food in the first place.
Historically, console makers have taken a loss on consoles they sell and they primarily make money on the games themselves. I wonder how much Microsoft actually cares about console sales.
This is nearly identical to the massive issues with retail and car theft that we have in San Francisco.
The uber liberals will say “oh they’re just trying to feed their families” while there are endless low skilled jobs (since the pandemic) available that pay $20+ an hour.
The reality is that current policing and prosecution rules/prosecution practices make being a retail thief more convenient than getting a job. Nothing is going to change until the punishment becomes a deterrent again.
With containerization it’s very quick to spin up test dependencies as well as part of your CICD. Why mock calls to a datastore when it’s super easy to spin up an ephemeral postgresql instance to test on?
Seattle became a tech city because of Microsoft and Amazon, period. If they didn’t decide to have their HQ there, we probably wouldn’t consider it a tech city.
Each engineer gets paid something around 200k-500k all in depending on seniority. I doubt just 1 team worked on this product given the bureaucracy of big tech companies like google. So why shell out millions of dollars in salary per year when the product isn’t making money?
Yep, we haven’t been allowed to hire anyone new on my team in a year. Definitely no headcount for junior engineers. With the cost of licenses for SaaS apps for a single developer my company would rather hire one senior engineer versus 2 juniors.
Managing IAM is a pain in the ass on AWS. I can’t speak to how much this product actually helps with that, but I would assume that that’s the problem they’re trying to solve.
