I do think prompt engineering is a new industry, and your experience (if you actually good) will translate will into future jobs.
In my opinion it has to be combined with engineering to be competitive in a commercial sense.
With remote, I simply exercise _during_ work with my home equipment, it's fantastic.

I'd prefer when seeing these articles that the author talks about which land mass or eco system they are talking about.
Australia has hundreds of thousands of acres of land where the animals roam in self sustainable set ups.
Ripping up these ecosystems to grow nuts and beans would be "worse" for the environment.
And yes, that is what I meant. curl hackmeplease.com 57 stack traces down.
Aka if I am running Metabase locally.
'“AI Alignment” is just a cancel culture for GPUs.'

On a more quasi-serious note, surely no technically-modest person has a sincere idea on how to regulate LLM's or any GAN stuff et cetera for that matter.
If so, does it imply there is a potentiality for a black market?
Defrosting is a funny one, most people don't know you can roast frozen chunks of meat perfectly fine.
You can reverse sear a frozen steak too. (it works, I've done it)
I sound like a tosser, but you know, food is one of the greatest things humans have to experience. (and perhaps the reason we exist at all)
I've never owned one, traditional cooking, food taste better and insert other conspiracies...
I think you can _feel_ "introverted" or "extroverted" sometimes.
Not a topic that overly bother me, I personally find it hilarious watching people describe themselves with so much confidence. As if they know how the human mind works, and are so capable at it they can perform some meta-analysis looking from outside in.
(If you haven't figured I also think Meyers, Big Five etc etc is all garbage too, "I'm cynical" </joke>)
I've been on here for 15 years and definitely feel phases when it seems like a lull because I am personally not interested in the current hype.
Side note: A few months ago, I swear I saw about 150 different databases I had never heard of on here.
It is mandatory reading — if you can't be bothered, just read the top five or ten.
Love this sentiment, stealing it =)
I love naming things, it really helps you think about abstractions and guides you to reusability and more minimal design systems.
It probably depends where you are coming from, my day job generally involves building finicky complex UI's, Tailwind and other frameworks always just get in the way and look fugly by the end of implementation.

Had it hooked up to speech so you could just talk at it and it would talk back at you.
Gave incredible answers that ChatGPT just doesn't do at all.
When using davinci the onus is on you to construct prompts (memories) which is fun and powerful.
====
97% of API usage might be because of ChatGPT's general appeal to the world. But I think they will be losing a part of the hacker/builder ethos if they drop things like davinci-003, which might suck for them in the long run. Consumers over developers.
The idea being after installing your distro, you could
> curl -sSL <script_url> | bash
It was somewhat of a social network. (10-20 years ago)
Am I taking crazy peoples or was this something...
And/or you could use a prompt injection strategy to make sure it does have the available context to solve your problem.
e.g. a vector search for some text book snippet that gets injected in
And did you also try the problem with Co-Pilot?
I gave GPT-4 a bunch of code that had two regex functions to parse a given custom url. I also gave it in the same prompt an example of a url of what I wanted it to parse, and asked it to explain the code and tell me the answer.
It explained the code perfectly in moments and also gave me the correct answer.
Here was it's response -> https://pastebin.com/raw/CP9iZh7S
I would use this as an interview question, asking a junior dev to "reason" through the code, explain their thinking and without running it, tell me what they might think the answer would be. If I had to give them feedback for that answer, I would have commended their ability to "reason" about the problem. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(extra: The GPT-4 response knew to not bother with the second regex because it should only run the second if the first regex had a third part match, amazing...)
(side note: I can't wait until I can generate live documentation of every file in my code base)
