You’d think Junk Removal guys would be masters of Zen detachment, seeing everybody’s relief as their possessions were tossed by the truckload.
Mine was wistful when he saw poker chips that I’ve been hauling unused for 10y. Also, I’m glad the rubber chicken got one last gag tho
@MeganTStevenson@RefineDotInk Look into “evals” — if you can quantitatively determine whether it’s done a good or bad job, you can adjust the skill or prompt to optimize performance. In certain cases there are ways of doing this without the extra labor
@cblatts How is most of your (and your employee's) time spent? Do you have any workflows public, say, in papers or on github? If you make more public, others may find it easy to help.
I always ask: what's the most tedious, time-consuming thing you wish you could delegate to an AI?
@nickcammarata@deliprao the juxtaposition of this tweet and your rep for meditation inspired me:

tidbits from the alumni holiday party:
* The biggest thing in OB is still pre-term births; but anencephalic fetuses can go on and on so they think it's some interplay or chemical released by the fetal brain?
* there's a remake of Running Man out
* snowboarders complement skiers
Exactly who is risking life and liver foraging mushrooms just obtain negligible calories?
The best days for mushroom enthusiasts are surely still to come, when digital and/or chemical identification becomes fast and foolproof.
Will there be hunger in the future?
Had an interesting conversation last night. In the future the world will be 10x, 100x richer, will our basic needs be cared for? Claim: there is no hunger presently in India, but greed will eat away at that achievement, so things will regress
Long-form AI reading is back and we’ve just dropped the ultimate summer read.
Inspired by the likes of Stripe Press, we’re proud to announce the first book from HF Press: a carefully crafted, book-length PDF edition of the Ultra-Scale Playbook.
