GPT-5 has been a phantom boogyman for like a year. Any time something better comes up, people claim OpenAI is holding back by not releasing some secret model despite the fact that if they had it, they'd be fully incentived to release it.
Not sure who's to "blame", but I was super surprised a few days ago when I installed Kubuntu 24.04 (minimal), and Python was missing. Was fine though as I strictly use via pipx and miniconda only, but still surprising.
>It isn't necessary to destroy Hamas with violence
It isn't possible to destroy Hamas with violence, or apartheid for that matter. Israel has created hatred towards themselves that will last for generations, even if they could kill every last Hamas member, they've made damn sure that a subset of Palestinian (if not broader) youth will reorganize a militia and the cycle of violence will go on.
A gross projection, and you're out of your mind if you think peace is what follows that act.
For what it's worth I'm not suggesting anything, just pointing out the obvious fact that this war doesn't end with the whole of Gaza population being turned into martyrs. Looks to me like Israel responded exactly like the jihadists wanted in the first place with their attack.
You're still supposed to read it, like you hopefully wouldn't blindly paste a big code block from SO. A useless/unused line or variable doesn't seem that hard to spot?
Of course, but ease of detection can vary relative to the complexity of the code being returned. GPT-4, correctly prompted, can produce some pretty complicated stuff. But it also hallucinates in ways that are more subtle than one might think. The example I’m thinking of, it created an unused variable in a set of fairly complex ML training set up scripts that I mostly caught because I was familiar with all the proper inputs. But the unused variable was quite plausible if you were not familiar, new to the domain etc.
Compilers automatically detect unused variables. Unused variables are the last of your problems. You should be far, far more worried about all the misused variables.
Seems like there would be better odds of people complying if you gave them an "AI/LLM" mode to tick at the beginning to group their results in an AI/LLM leaderboard.
Isn't this more likely to have been inspired by marginalia* than a personal blogs thread? Doesn't seem to have the same results from the Apple Watch example, but it's what immediately came to mind for me when I read this post's title.
Vlad was dabbling with similar things to Marginalia with Teclis around the same time Marginalia first made headlines.
And to be fair, I was simultaneously inspired by the blog thread to build a curated blog filter for my search engine, which led to a series of changes that overall tends to promote more of this types of results in general.
The fact that we're several to have similar ideas sort of validates the ideas I think.
I'm not complaining, glad there's more tools for searching outside the scope of SEO spam or content mills, and competition can only make the niche better (presumably, unless it gets big enough to incentivize disguising commercial content as niche blogs). Just felt like it might be a bit disingenuous to quote a blog list as inspiration for a search engine focused on "the non-commercial part of the web" which is exactly your engine's aim and wording, didn't know they've been working on small web initiatives since a similar timeline.
Hopefully you both find success and with it uplift hobbyist websites.
Maybe someone can correct the details since it's been a few years I done this, but we sequence DNA by PCR. Roughly, (1) breaking it up in small pieces and split strands, (2) mixing it with an enzyme that completes each single strand, (3) repeat 1 and 2 a bunch to multiply the strands many times over to make the solution a sense DNA juice, (4) pass it through a machine that'll sequence thousands of these small strands and (5) align these short DNA sequences with a software that matches unique sequences.
I did it with COI gene, which is just a short (1000ish base pairs with our snails IIRC) sequence of purely random ATGC base pairs. Lots of unique sequences make the short strands easy to match, just get a bunch of 10-15 BP bits and you can match the whole thing.
Now if your gene is 62M BP of repeating palindrome sequences, you can imagine how hard it would be to align random pieces sequenced as it will be very hard to find unique sequences to match.
We don't use PCR anymore! It's direct sequencing of the primary DNA. We can read single molecules. That's the quiet revolution in nanotechnology that's driving all these complete assemblies.
