Now I work as a civil engineer.
I can go out and look at big machines whenever I want. Five year old me would be proud.
I thought this might interest the HN-crowd since we have a lot of ChatGPT and SQLite fans.
That would be nice.

I have had some luck with that.
I use the Assistant API, which I believe is not the same thing GPTs. I have played with it through the web interface.
I had 100+ PDF:s files that were OCR:ed with Tesseract. I then had ChatGPT write a script that combines all files in to a single txt-file keeping the layout.
I uploaded the file and started asking questions. The files contains highly technical data regarding building codes in non English so I am guessing the model isn’t so used to that type of language?
Anyway, it worked surprisingly good. It was able to answer questions and the answers were good. Plus that it is supposed to annotate from where it took the answer, although I didn’t get that to work properly.
I tried to upload PDF:s, JSON-files, CSV:s. Raw text has worked best so far.
My view is that you are basically a parent. You coach, guide and set boundaries all while keeping your and your co-workers dignity.
Regarding sources, I like the US army’s handbook on leadership (FM 6-22). It short and on point.
To me the fact that insurers aren’t insuring natural disasters due to climate change is a good argument that it’s real.
Otherwise they would just sell the insurance to a premium and collect free money?
Or do you guys think that it’s just some companies being dumb and are likely to go out of business?
I thought I would score lower than the average in dogmatism, but didn’t. So I’ll have to revise my belief about my own dogmatism. (:
I just skimmed the article but I got the feeling the author always is in favor of quitting.
If you wouldn’t mind sharing what you found most interesting while reading the books you mentioned.
Why do it manually you ask? We have thick layer of impermeable dirt that prevents natural infiltration.
We zig zagged between oil rigs.
I felt like I was starring in Water World, The Pirates of the Carabeean and The Goonies all at once.
It was awesome.
Then I just do something different. Take a shower, go for a walk, whatever. For me changing the environment helps a lot, or using my body.
Then the ideas start to flow.
Or did they just feed a script into some voice generator?
You get to learn words that describe things that your mother tongue can’t.
Just like a programming language? Some things are easy and other things are hard to express depending if you use LISP or Python.
I believe it’s the same with spoken languages. Some thoughts are easy to articulate, other hard. And it’s cool to shift language depending on what you want to articulate.
I am studying corporate finance and valuation. Recently we had an analysis assignment of a private company. In the EU a lot of financial info is still available even if the company isn’t listed on any stock exchange.
Would it be possible to answer golly_ned:s questions with public financial statements?
