As predicted here in March… Open Source AI catches up with GPT-4 for writing code. 😎

Model is called CodeLlama-34B-Python

It achieved 69.5% pass@1 on HumanEval, GPT-4 achieved 67%

NB: 34 billion is significantly smaller than GPT-4 it’s approx 1/10th the size.

Again I confidently predict that many small and open source specialists will destroy monolithic general models, when it comes to creating something akin to AGI.

The large forest of super narrow specialists will win. It won’t even be close. Monoliths are a dead end.

I’m OK with the principle of paying for anything, but the amount is everything.

I think nano transactions would be a net positive for the world, we just haven’t adopted the tech yet.

Thinking out loud is just a skill.

How you feel when you do it is down to endocrinology and that’s why some people practice it more than others.

It’s easy to get into positive or negative reinforcing endocrine loops for all kinds of behaviours. That’s literally how we have evolved.

But now you can recognise it.

Fear is just a hormone signal. It’s not actual danger. Same for embarrassment and stuff like that. Often the signal is the product of a reinforcement loop rather than an accurate real life trigger.

You can get a lot of self improvement by the exercise of unpacking yourself to a profound level. Nobody will ever give you such advice.

There’s no such thing as a race, only traits.

“Race” is really just an American socio-political construct. The word originally referred to culture and not biology.

I don’t understand your myth part?

I can’t speak for others, but covid lockdowns turned my little nuclear family into 💎.

WFH + homeschooling = 💎

Are you allowed to talk about INAH-3 (third interstitial nucleus of the anterior hypothalamus)?

It is the part of the brain that governs sexual dominance in adulthood and is twice as large in straight men as it is in gay men and straight women

Asymmetric sexual divergence happens at age 5-10.

Science understands why and how this happens in rats, but I don’t think you are allowed to talk about it in humans.

I will say, evolution is a phenomenally powerful self regulating system. It has learnt to detect when a population is succeeding too much for its own good, and has also learnt to assert correcting pressure.

I hate email as a technology.

It feels private and it is not private. It’s like putting a sign up on a tree outside someone’s house.

It’s also spammy as hell, difficult to self host, riddled with terminal vulnerabilities it’s just hot garbage.

What’s going on in America where one political party spends a huge amount of time and energy hyping up enormous media attention for their main opponent?

Are all the Dems planning to flip sides and join Trump? Why have they spent all their time and resources raising his profile?

Has anyone thought about nostr relays co-hosting OpenVPN or equivalent?

Could probably figure out a way to dual purpose the infrastructure as a VPN.

It’s probably not a scam, but if anyone asks for, or stores, your nsec then you should presume it’s a scam.

There’s no good reason for it.

It defeats the whole point.

If true, it would be rational to presume ZBD is a scam. nostr:note1m6qc9saeq9qn4d3h3tyekvyk7adtd6xg40h08veuc96yvlv485ts9e0pj8

Also it’s an entirely artificial number that doesn’t actually exist in the real world.

It’s a crude metric that is spat out by a very long and overly complex spreadsheet.

Calculating CPI might have made sense in the 1930’s, but it pure hocus pocus in 2023.

Really Central Banks should be talking about monetary velocity, and income distributions across the tax base.

The should be able to talk about i) Wealth and ii) Income as two different things.

They should be able to talk about PPP of the consumer.

Much of our economic woe comes from the fact we are still using 150 year old statistical concepts that predate silicon chips.

It’s embarrassingly obsolete, they talk Ye Olde economic nomenclature because the boomers still hold the marginal vote. Not because the concepts are good, or work.

By 2045, there will be more children in Africa than all of the rest of the world combined.

People really don’t understand the future, at all.
