ChatGPT can now browse the internet to provide you with current and authoritative information, complete with direct links to sources. It is no longer limited to data before September 2021.

This new research from OpenAI presents a method for AI systems to explain itself and in ways prove alignment with goals. Very interesting!

[Siqi Chen @blader]

new research from OpenAI used gpt4 to label all 307,200 neurons in gpt2, labeling each with plain english descriptions of the role each neuron plays in the model.

this opens up a new direction in explainability and alignment in AI, helping make models more explainable and potentially easier to align.

Auto code generation tools have a lot of potential but this by @Replit still has SQL injection and other vulnerabilities. Even while explicitly asking for these issues to be fixed, the code generated still has these issues.

@dabit3 @edgeandnode Great thread, how best to query the state of an contract along with its balances at a given block height? Does the graph help with this? We’re looking to get accounts, balances of an ERC 20 contract at a point in time.

I went from zero to building full stack apps with Solidity, React, & Ethereum in a couple of months to prepare for my role at @edgeandnode

Here is a crash course of 16 high quality resources, tutorials, and videos I'd recommend for anyone looking to do the same (thread) 👇

The key to the success of the Laravel framework has been the continual stream of talented people that build cool stuff for it - or write books - or write blog posts - or do other awesome things for the ecosystem. ❤️

We activated our Disaster Recovery plan following a fire at on of our European data centre providers. Most of services continue as normal.

[Octave Klaba @olesovhcom]

We have a major incident on SBG2. The fire declared in the building. Firefighters were immediately on the scene but could not control the fire in SBG2. The whole site has been isolated which impacts all services in SGB1-4. We recommend to activate your Disaster Recovery Plan.

@mmhmmapp This is a great app. Presentations look great. The slide sharing feature does not work as well though compared to regular Zoom

@maxlynch Battery is not great.

[webdigi @webdigi]

iOS 14.0 definitely drains battery much faster. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next release. #iOS14

Hey @expo there are a lot of issues awaiting response here https://t.co/ZGLuGrQ9DE some input will be very helpful.

[webdigi @webdigi]

Last month we've been closely evaluating @Ionicframework and @expo for Mobile App development as web devs.

Pro Ionic
- PWA (reuse website code)
- Lots of plugins
- Fast dev

Pro Expo
- Better performance
- No Xcode or Android Studio
- Hosted hot updates

Thoughts? Experience?

[webdigi @webdigi]

@framer Do you support React Native or Expo?

[webdigi @webdigi]

@Ionicframework Looks great! Interactions look great.
