Thread: Imagine internet as a building: each room corresponds to one domain/social network account/online community. When you are browsing, you are visiting different rooms, looking at the stuff inside, adding directions to other rooms into your room—your feed.

@RealYaacov TBH the semantics for GET requests is to not change any state. Also, you might want to let the link work only in the browser where the link was requested from by e.g. setting a cookie on link request and checking against it.

An edge-case in GPT-3 with big implications: Inference is non-deterministic (even at temperature=0) when top-2 token probabilities are <1% different. So temperature=0 output is *very close* to deterministic, but actually isn't. Worth remembering.

@christineist This! I'm so bad at it! I don't even consciously notice when I start criticizing immediately.

@jondotbo I got a Rad Mission 1 last November and it's great, though it is discontinued now. Would recommend other Rad bikes.

@demiurgently Are you exercising? Playing tennis, climbing, and swimming 5+ times per week did it for me. I slipped off the schedule a month back and was feeling down again, picked it back up now and feeling much better.

@dela3499 Also female friends giving dating advice ftw.

the thought of getting palpable attention from telling the story can sometimes be more inspiring than a sometimes harder to appreciate outcome itself

[Gleb (offline, send me emails) @posobin]

it's interesting how a desire to have an engaging story to tell can be a great motivator in itself

you could google how to start running and lose weight, follow the advice, get results
OR you could ask chatgpt for a plan, follow it, get results, AND have a cool story to tweet

idk about you, but I discovered that on a rare Saturday the thing that gets me out of the bed at 7am, way before alarm rings, is a ridiculously exciting thought of filling out my budget for the past few months...

@djmicrobeads What recipes did you follow for both of them? I have also been thinking about baking some flaky pastries...
