Mom called. She wants to know when to expect grandkids.

I get the opposite problem. If I get things nearly perfect on the first try, I’ll just think to myself that I’ll never top that and give up. There’s something satisfying about seeing improvement. In the same vein, seeing results get worse is highly discouraging.

I’m not sure if “impressed” is the right word for what you’re trying to describe. I’m just going to address the first example to try and figure out what you mean.

Stuff that has big value is worth a lot of money. Thus money is based on people being impressed.

This sounds tautological. Is “big value” not synonymous with “worth lots of money”? I’m reading this as saying “Something that is worth a lot of money is worth a lot of money, and people are impressed by things that are worth a lot of money, so if people are impressed by something, it will be worth more money.”

I train primarily for powerlifting, secondarily for hypertrophy. At a high level, that means my workouts are organized such that each day focuses on one of the three main powerlifts (squat, bench, deadlift), plus accessory exercises to address weak points.

• You like seeing numbers go up or big numbers in general
• Don’t like being sore after workouts
• Enjoy simple workouts

Do you know any exercises that are rare? Or ones that seem special to your locality?

That’s kind of an odd question. I’m not sure what kind of answer you’re looking for. People choose exercises based on goal, the available equipment, and ability to perform the exercise. So I’ve never seen anyone do a belt squat in person because I’ve never been to a gym with belt squat equipment. I don’t see many people do front levers because few are able to do them.

How do you meet your protein or calorie goals? How do you track it? Especially food that is local to your place.

If you have a particular problem with meeting your macronutrient goals, then that might be a more concrete question to pose. I feel like this is a bit too individual to give you anything useful. Tracking, I do with Macrofactor. It’s a paid app.

You want the url to look less suspicious, not more.

Same. That’s when everyone else goes to sleep and actually leaves you time to focus on your work.

I bake quite a bit and I don’t do my mise-en-place either when it comes to baking, but that’s not a problem. The way recipes are formatted works well for my process as well. I read through the steps ahead of time if it’s a recipe I am unfamiliar with, then I’ll just have the ingredients list open while I’m doing the prep. The things I make are pretty basic (cookies, cakes, muffin, etc) and the steps are all identical. Mix wet, mix dry, mix everything, bake.

I personally find that having less repeated information makes things easier and faster to read. The recipe says “add flour”, you know that it’s all the flour. If the recipe says “add flour (1 cup)”, then I have to check back in the ingredients list to figure out if that’s all the flour or only part of it. Then the more info you add to clarify, the harder it is to skim while you’re cooking.

To the best of my knowledge, this information only exists in the prompt. The raw LLM has no idea what it is and the APIs serve the raw LLM.

It’s not pointless. Depending on where you live, there’s a good chance you do have an abundance of cheap housing available. They’re just not in desirable locations, so many would opt to either pay extra for the privilege of living in more desirable homes or even living on the streets.

Regarding taxes, I’m talking about those who haven’t previously paid taxes, are not currently paying taxes while living in the area, and have no plans to pay taxes after they leave the area.

How did that work when it came to deciding who gets the more desirable housing versus the less desirable ones? Or those who are not from the area and don’t pay taxes to cover the housing?

Normally, portioning out the ingredients would be the first step of the process and is all done at once.

I’ve always interpreted it as being equivalent to “what’s done is done”

Valid opinion on the phrasing. Disagree with the premise that anything someone says is necessarily their opinion.

Example: “For me, potatoes are easier to peel with a knife than a potato peeler” vs “Potatoes are easier to peel with a knife than a potato peeler”. The former says that this is my experience and yours may differ. The latter says that this is true in general and if you find it easier the other way, there’s a good chance you’re doing something wrong.

I’m pretty sure you mean that you’d like a world with no landlords and not a world where short term housing solutions don’t exist. No rent would imply the latter. Unless you know of a way to do it without paying rent?

Is this the internet equivalent of laugh tracks to inform us that your comment is funny?

Quickly filtering out a subset of them to prioritize so that we get the most value possible out of the time that humans spend on it.

LLMs cannot:

• Tell fact from fiction
• Accurately recall data from its training set
• Count

LLMs can

• Translate
• Get the general vibe of a text (sentiment analysis)
• Generate plausible text

Semantics aside, they’re very different skills that require different setups to accomplish. Just because counting is an easier task than analysing text for humans, doesn’t mean it’s the same it’s the same for a LLM. You can’t use that as evidence for its inability to do the “harder” tasks.

Sounds to me like a 50% improvement over zero human eyes.

It certainly would be. Thankfully, there’s many more than zero human eyes involved in this.

Considering that it’s a language task, LLMs exist, and the cost, it’s a reasonable assumption. It’d be pretty silly to analyse a bag of words when you have tools you can use with minimal work with much better results. Even sillier to spend over $200 for something that can be run on a decade old machine in a few hours.

Yeah, this sounds like something I’d find at a diner.
