@VillainsIncFilm @colinmochrie looks like a really original and innovative take on the superhero movie

GPT2 1.5B, GPT3 175B parameters (albeit different than neurons). Human Brain 86B Neurons and 86B non-neuron cells. Could argue add. intel via wider nervous system, but needs to process sensory and different lobes. If GPT4 est 1-100T in 2023, shouldn't we expect near human equiv?

@MattoRochford @NamesOfManly Welcome back 🙂

@annie_parker @ChiefDisrupter @bigyahu @NickyWill100 @prosser_tim @onestepwalks @techfugeesaust1 @UNrefugees @steveathon @Catalysr @usmangiki @servantofchaos @developerjack @LynnDangAU A bit slow yesterday, but count me in as well!

@annie_parker Seems like she’s getting it from both sides. Tons of people shaming her going to Tokyo/games in the first place, and clearly being bullied to be at the ceremonies. The whole situation seems wrong to me

@VullinghsJ @WhoGivesACrapTP I must’ve gotten lucky. Found the loo 🚽 almost immediately. 😕 Fun concept though!

@bigyahu So, if you don’t represent a geography, then what are you expected to govern? How do you determine what jurisdiction you operate under if not by geo? Without good answers this isn’t any different than an elected official of an internet discussion group.

Nice work mate!

[Matt Allen 🧢 🚜💨 @mattallen]

Just sent our first 🚜 investor update.

🕹 we’re a team of 6 in Melb, Syd & Auck

We’re ~7 weeks in. 😳

@arcwhite Like MQTT?

[ryancross @ryancross]

@sydneycolemanSF @adblanche @Nextdoor Hmm, I thought it was illegal to employ small children in the US but even for a 13yo boy that’s pretty immature and unprofessional. Definitely not ok.

[ryancross @ryancross]

@laurenjcapelin Congrats

[ryancross @ryancross]

@bigyahu Its the ultimate troll move i think. Now all the media attention will be on this BS comment from him, that he’ll just walk back next week, INSTEAD of the media giving all the attention to the DNC / Biden, or covid deaths, or the 1000 other horrific things deserve more attention.

@nathanclark_ Even if it doesnt improve conversion much, i think this could have a positive impact on customer experience /satisfaction which could help retention/churn

[Samantha Wong @holasammy]

.@bigyahu is one of a group of @startmate people who believed in me when I didn’t even believe in myself, along w @nikiscevak and Mike Casey. Belief is totally underrated and more valuable than money. If you can get both from @bigyahu you should take it. https://t.co/k96N6P0KiD

@developerjack I’m in a similar boat and been thinking about a usb-c KVM switch as a possible option too. Really curious to see what you settle on. What else are you trying to connect/drive besides monitors?

[ryancross @ryancross]

@lants Yay!

[ryancross @ryancross]

@apglo Yea, embarrassing to know that I’ve made this mistake in the past - hopefully not as cringeworthy as this though. I try to be better now

[ryancross @ryancross]

@pjlaurie Whole heartedly agree. Worth noting though, when accelerators/incubators/programs consistently don’t compensate Mentors, this can create the misaligned incentives that can lead to these behaviors more frequently. Mentoring can be very fulfilling but time is a limited resource.

[ryancross @ryancross]

@vaibhavgeek @paulg Sounds like an election 🤣

[ryancross @ryancross]

@developerjack Nice work
