  • I have passkeys setup for almost everything and on most sites I just enter my username then I get a request on my phone to sign in. Scan my thumbprint and it's good to go. It's actually so much simpler than passwords / MFA, but admittedly I haven't had to migrate devices or platforms.

    I have everything setup through protonpass right now

  • Like a apple TV / Roku which then... Reports everything you're watching and or viewing. We truly live in the day and age where nothing you do digitally is private, and it's almost turned into privacy via aggregation imo now since the PBs of raw data isn't really worth it for major corporations.

    Obvs if you're the .0001% I'm sure the NSA can tap into it and you're still gonna be fucked that way, but that can be said for pretty much any digital device.

  • Imo it's bc it's the new kid on the block. Yes it's 10 years old but barely becoming common use in production and government mandates are only speeding that up. In actuality it's a great language and has been hyped for a few years by people who actually use it. Python went through the same thing in the 2010s where devs really tried clowning on it, now it's used everywhere.

  • Yeah 3.5 was pretty ass w bugs but could write basic code. 4o helped me sometimes with bugs and was definitely better, but would get caught in loops sometimes. This new o1 preview model seems pretty cracked all around though lol

  • Not sure entirely where this fits into this conversation, but one thing I've found really interesting that's discussed in this Convo w Dr. K (I don't have a timestamp sorry). Tai Chi has much more significant affect on all health perspectives than typical Western running/jogging/yoga etc.

    And research papers can note this, but as soon as researchers start attempting to dig into the actual mechanical process behind why it has such a significant affect, their papers will be rejected because it dips too far into Woo/Spiritual territory despite not describing what the woo is, just acknowledging that "something" is there happening.

    I think it's interesting we can measure results and attempt to explain what we're seeing but western research tends to be so tied to physical mechanisms it has almost started hindering our advancement.

  • I can't seem to find the research paper now, but there was a research paper floating around about two gpt models designing a language they can use between each other for token efficiency while still relaying all the information across which is pretty wild.

    Not sure if it was peer reviewed though.

  • which does support the idea that there is a limit to how good they can get.

    I absolutely agree, im not necessarily one to say LLMs will become this incredible general intelligence level AIs. I'm really just disagreeing with people's negative sentiment about them becoming worse / scams is not true at the moment.

    I doesn't prove it either: as I said, 2 data points aren't enough to derive a curve

    Yeah only reason I didn't include more is because it's a pain in the ass pulling together multiple research papers / results over the span of GPT 2, 3, 3.5, 4, 01 etc.

  • nobody out there has come up with a good way to permanently archive all that stuff

    Personally I can't wait for these glass hard drives being researched to come at the consumer or even corporate level. Yes they're only writable one time and read only after that, but I absolutely love the concept of being able to write my entire Plex server to a glass harddrive, plug it in and never have to sorry about it again.

  • As much as people around these parts despise algorithmic feeds, I suspect an algorithmic feed would've worked far better in this situation to feed all academic based content to someone immediately on account creation if they show interest/ follow peers in the field.

    This would've helped the migration since they most likely don't know the accounts of the Twitter accounts posting academic content as that was algorithmically fed as well. I'm really doubtful it's a problem with decentralization, seems to me mastodon had a problem with both not having a critical mass and the content that was there wasn't easy enough to find.
