mayerwin | 11 months ago | on: Ask HN: Why hasn’t AMD made a viable CUDA alternative?

Tinycorp (owned by George Hotz, also behind Comma.ai) is working on it after AMD finally understood that it was a no-brainer: https://geohot.github.io/blog/jekyll/update/2025/03/08/AMD-Y... Exciting times ahead!

Worst visualization ever for a study about obvious correlations (that are misrepresented as a result of the poor display of data).

Cool tool, do you use Selenium?

Nice tool as well. The whole process took about 3 hours. Mostly for polishing, including 1 hour to fix an arcane CSS layout issue that ChatGPT wasn't able to help with (it may have been if I had provided it with the whole rendered HTML along with a screenshot). I really feel the LLM needs to have access to the same feedback we have, and be allowed to iterate (as it is very good at evaluating its results), to be effective with code. I also tried Gemini 1.5 Pro and Claude 3 Sonnet and it wasn't better than ChatGPT.

Same here, what a horrible customer experience.

Are you GPT-3?

Looks like you'd really be best served by an app like Todoist. A .txt file doesn't scale. But beware the productivity trap (becoming more productive means you'll end up even more busy).

mayerwin | 4 years ago | on: Extending GPT-3’s context window infinitely

What do you think of this idea to infinitely extend GPT-3's context window, by storing context in GPT-3 itself or in secondary layers?

The extension isn't just a Javascript overlay, it actually modifies the document in real-time while storing a full understanding of the document structure behind the scene, in the document itself (thanks to the Google Docs API). So other users would see "=name is out!" if this is what you've chosen to show on your own interface, or "MySoft 1.0 beta is out!" otherwise. If they have installed the extension, they would be able to access the document structure information, see placeholders and change variables as they like.
