on: RWKV: Reinventing RNNs for the Transformer Era
(Note: My comments do not represent or project those of my collaborators)
I remember talking to Blink DL about this, I think the plan is just to build an ecosystem, provide more diversity in the DL space. There are plans to make a RWKV5, they are in the open in the RWKV5 channel. From an engineering standpoint I don't really see the "reap" the value of random contributors to the project. Most of us I believe ... are hackers and tinkerers that just want to learn and contribute and be apart of something that can change the current

Pretty high, we are going to be deploying something similar to Sono's GPT based LLM, and leverage RWKV for that, still playing around with it though!

on: RWKV: Reinventing RNNs for the Transformer Era
one of the authors here!, I think someone in our discord did experiments to prove that it does work for longer contexts, The pace of this work moves really fast. This might have been an earlier models in the series. RWKV it needs to be trained for longer contexts lengths in order to obtain that skill a context tuning if you will. IRCC there will be a follow up paper for it.

on: Ask HN: Will programming continue to be a lucrative profession in the future?
MOOC's have been shown to be ineffective most people dropout, and if you learn from an MOOC its unlikely you will hit most of the concepts, I think I have seen that when I worked as a tech recruiter for a year, there were tonnes and tonnes of iOS "Developers" who learned from coding shoppes and mooc they never make it past fizz buzz or even building anything more sophisticated then a twitter api call app.

In Canada here, you have this opposite issue I was just fired because a couple of 35+ said I was not a culture fit LOL, despite bringing a project out of development hell and giving the product a doable realistic feature.

Okay so, the first thing I would do is join this community
http://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap. Once you do you will feel alot of social anxiety go away, since it's likely you would be "letting" go of your testosterone that way.
A friend of mine had an addiction and started with this and it worked out so well for him.
Next you need to hit the gym, and start small and try 3 days a week.
Second make some goals about things you want to get done before you reach next year.
Next do deep introspection, think about your self in the third person, and ask your self what you hate about yourself.
Go write it down and spend a everyday on one of those things and chip away at it by breaking it down into smaller tasks.
Lastly Smile people love other people who smile, it makes them more approachable.
Reddit says, 30 is the best of your life if you are not married or tied down to a relationship.

Nice writeup, I always felt mongodb as a really fast product prototyping database . After you get to certain point you in web scale I would guess you would use one of these alternate solutions.

on: The problem with Angular
I don't think the author has heard of JSON,restful end points, and or design patterns, I don't understand why he would develop with the intent of rendering the pages on the server side, when the client can do that faster and you can reduce server load. Not only is that a performance advantage its a design advantage, now you can have mobile clients that render data natively and you don't have to work as hard to develop for mobile.

on: No more JavaScript frameworks
I feel the author does not have enough development experience, or maturity to make such an statement. The reason for such frameworks is to clean up the mess and the void left with years of neglect on the web as a platform. To possibly blossom ideas, on how to improve the web, clearly not many people can agree on standards

on: Object Oriented Programming is an expensive disaster which must end
I think articles like these are akin clickbait. Mature developers understand that every paradigm has it's place. I mainly use functional for data processing and pipelining, and OOP for object modeling.
