So, first time in like 5 years, I’m hiring a team. This time, I lead Answer Quality at Perplexity; preempting the “but frontier models are made by other companies”, yes, sure, but almost nobody gets to play with all of them to choose the best one. We do. jobs.ashbyhq.com/perplexity/461…

To all my new followers, you missed out on these Eastern screech owls I posted a few weeks ago. No worries, I got you guys! Most people rarely get to see Eastern screech owlets, much less THREE of them at once! My only regret is that my telephoto lens isn't all that great in low light so ISO grains were terrible to deal with under the shaded canopy of this Cypress dome during nightfall. I managed to get dad too who happened to be a red morph!

@Phellyx_ The art is arguably better than in S1 and it was already insanely good. Also the worldbuilding is impressive, plot is just comprehensible enough to be fun and it’s a rare anime with female beauty standards aligned with mine!

@varrock The war really interfered with that, many key AI people left the country to found/join @recraftai, @poolsideai etc. Also, less well known, after the Yandex split, the Russian entity kept the IP but @nebiusai kept most of the GPUs and all of the long-term Nvidia contracts.

Is Russia just not involved with AI at all? Absolutely nothing coming out of there and they have plenty of gigacracked math/cs academics

@varrock Isn't Yandex the most advanced Russian Tech company? I remember they had a huge autonomous fleet in Ann Arbor before the war/sanctions so I am sure they're investing in Ai

The Right looked at Trench Crusade as a possible home, a place where you could have fun and be *left alone*, only to be rugpulled once again. But I think it’s worth studying because Trench Crusade is one of a handful of examples of motivating Conservatives to patron art.

Still blows my mind that someone made a setting where Christianity is fighting the forces of Hell in brutal trench warfare, then threw a tantrum that it was attracting edgy Christians. That's like making a game about sexualized, anthropomorphic animals and then getting mad that Furries show up in droves. Who the fuck did you think the audience would be?

Моё мерзкое правацкое мнение в том, что если бы мне нужно было N лет копить на поездку за границу, я бы выкинул из головы эту идею и достал бы ее обратно только когда скопил бы поездок на 5 Иначе велик риск провести так всю жизнь и после каждого отпуска возвращаться к нулю
｡.:*.☆..электрический снежок..*:.☆*.:｡@Alice_Traum

Откуда у вас деньги чтобы ездить заграницу? Я коплю год, но все ещё никак не могу скопить даже 100к…. Мне на это надо 2-3 года откладывать по несколько тысяч в месяц..

@SuJinyan6 As a former Microsoft FTE I must warn you that this post breaks the social media policy and may be grounds for immediate termination, as you both don’t use the proper hashtags and discuss work processes.

It took me two weeks to onboarding for my internship at Microsoft, somehow, my collaborators relies too much on the agent to fix everything for them, such that they can't explain how things really works or have some basic understanding in what's blocking me. Though they offered to meet in person and help me "solve the problem together", and when we meet, they prompt their agent while I ackwardly watching with them or they asked me to prompt my agent while they ackwardly watching with me. Why don't I just prompt my agent for everything to save both of our time? Both the learning and human interaction are missing gradually.

it's so funny to see this and then look into the trench crusade lore and the two best, most hopeful places in the world are devoutly muslim arabiran and the prussian democratic republic which is the only country to have invented parliamentary democracy

@saoirse_sikhu When I was dating my wife and visited her at her home for the first time for a dinner, she said that the dinner was practically ready, I just need to fry some pork cutlets. I was a bit surprised but cooked ofc, it turned out to be one of the best decisions in my life

@normalishvegan I know a guy who is a big fan of farmers markets, returned to Serbia after 15 years in the US as a Principal SWE at Microsoft, and was like “ok, everything is better at home except potatoes, potatoes in Seattle are a highlight”

I still think the most impressive award show performance ever is Neil Patrick Harris's opening number at the 2013 Tonys. like, the ONLY time they were able to successfully complete it was during the live taping. and every celeb in the audience was STUNNED by the end. here's the video in honor of tonight's Tony Awards lol

@hayakacz Think about it as an American form of safety net for people who fell on hard times. The credit card debt this guy has is now most likely attached to his house btw (and he would not be able to get $20k in debt w/o a house to his name). @patio11 has some great articles on that.

Many keep asking me why I am in debt to my dentist, as he’s the only “small business” on my list of debtors, so it’s time for a short story: Back in early 2021 I had to get all four of my wisdom teeth removed. Went to the dentist and was quoted around $700 for everything (very good price then and insane now) including anesthesia. They promised I’d be put under for the procedure. I agreed and set a date. I showed up for my appointment, and I’m seated in the chair and they’re about to start drilling my teeth when I ask why I’m still conscious. The dentist tells me “oh if you want to not feel anything, it will cost about double what you’re paying now”. We go back and forth a little, I’m pissed this is only mentioned when I’m literally seated in the chair ready to go, I bring up being told by the SAME DOCTOR that I’d be put under 100%, but I reluctantly agreed to pay more because he did not give a fuck. They fed me nitrous for the entire thing, so I wasn’t all the way out, but I was blasted. Procedure was fine, I get done and once I sober up enough from the nitrous I go to the front desk to check out. I am given a bill of $1400. I say I can’t pay that today (I was really broke back then and actually couldn’t), they told me I had a month. I went home and never spoke to them again. They tried to bait and switch me. They didn’t know they had a 380 credit score demon in the room. Next time run a credit check. Fuck you dentist

@vikhyatk @GergelyOrosz Did you find a way to set it up so that it does not feel extremely tiresome and degrading? I personally look at datapoints a lot but I’m quite bad at any repetitive work and failed to label meaningfully large N a few times. So I cannot push the team to do that as well.

@GergelyOrosz don't agree tbh. data labeling sounds low status but it's actually incredibly valuable work and no one is above it

Just learned: Software engineers used to do manual data labeling at Scale AI while Alex Wang was CEO. After he left, new leadership joined, and were HORRIFIED to learn this. Stopped it ASAP Now at Meta, software engineers are assigned manual data labeling... see the pattern?

@yeroneem Greece, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania -- all of them rely heavily on tourism, far more than more industry-heavy countries in Germany's backyard.

The real surprise here is *Serbia*, which is not your stereotypical touristy Balkan country. It's an industrialized (by Euro standards) & economically complex country (~ Croatia, despite lower gdp per capita, also it had the *highest improvement in complexity ranking in the world* as per the OEC). Underrated country when talking about E Euro "growth stories". Probably because it's not politically advantageous to ppl talking about such things (non-EU country, "muh illiberal politics" etc.). Turns out clustering near the Euro manufacturing hub (Visegrad, Romania etc.) matters more than this.

@sarahlol1863603 This is not true. For several hundreds of years, Orthodox Church of Russia was the number 1 state religion and served the government faithfully. During the Soviet times, it was the second official religion and enjoyed tacit support in exchange of snitching on the churchgoers.

What's most annoying to me is how technically competent these artists are, they would kick my ass on a sculpting-to-production ready character competition. What baffles me is how a character art team with thousands if not hundreds of thousands of hours of design practice under their belts can look at that lineup and say to themselves "yeah, those are good designs, they definitely don't look like they are wearing intestine armor". I would be embarrassed to even put those in my portfolio. I would honestly prefer to say I went to jail for a few years rather than say I worked on Concord characters.

Under the Labor Theory of value, the game Concord should have been a great success, because of all the effort that went into making it. Looking at their characters, it's mind-boggling that they thought you'd play to be these awful cringe "heroes". I know Concord is old news now, but it is incredible. I was invariably on much smaller teams, but we apparently put a lot more effort into making our games look good to players. 1/2
