If you thought about it for two weeks beforehand and came up with nothing, I have trouble lending much credence to that.

the commenter never said they came up with nothing, they said o3 came up with something better.

It's a good question! I've been hearing the joke for years that RN architects don't have any android devices to test on.
qt31415926 · 7 months ago
On our apps we consistently see a p50 3-4x speed difference between iOS and Android (though there are more lower end android devices). Hard to fathom if it's all due to variability in android devices vs RN being less performant on Android.

As excited as I am by this, I still feel like this is still just a small approximation of a small chunk of human reasoning ability at large. o3 (and whatever comes next) feels to me like it will head down the path of being a reasoning coprocessor for various tasks.

But, still, this is incredibly impressive.

Which parts of reasoning do you think is missing? I do feel like it covers a lot of 'reasoning' ground despite its on the surface simplicity

My main dislike for React is that I'm constantly learning React, its intricacies and idiosyncracies.

Disproportionate amount of energy I would rather spend learning JavaScript, something that would last.

Using React since 2013. Each release is an excitement, until I realise some chunk of concepts which altogether took months to fully grasp, are gone. Some even needed to be unlearned.

A lot of abstractions.

React doesn't make you a better developer, it makes you a better React developer.

I don't feel that with Vue. I don't feel that with most libraries I use.

React's pure component functional style translates really well to nearly every other type of software development.

yeah this is kinda cool i guess but 808 elo is still pretty bad for a model that can supposedly code like a human, i mean 11th percentile is like barely scraping by, and what even is the point of simulating codeforces if youre just gonna make a model that can barely compete with a decent amateur, and btw what kind of contest allows 10 submissions, thats not how codeforces works, and what about the time limits and memory limits and all that jazz, did they even simulate those, and btw how did they even get the elo ratings, is it just some arbitrary number they pulled out of their butt, and what about the model that got 1807 elo, is that even a real model or just some cherry picked result, and btw what does it even mean to "perform better than 93% of competitors" when the competition is a bunch of humans who are all over the place in terms of skill, like what even is the baseline for comparison

edit: i got confused with the Codeforce. it is indeed zero shot and O1 is potentially something very new I hope Anthropic and others will follow suit

any type of reasoning capability i'll take it !

808 ELO was for GPT-4o.

I would suggest re-reading more carefully

You don't need third-party APIs to make a YouTube viewer. There's a bunch of 3rd-party YouTube viewers like SmartTube, ReVanced, etc. that bypass ads and don't use the official API, plus of course the yt-dlp downloader.

I'd say the lesson here is NOT to rely on official APIs.

However, upon reading this blog post, it does seem he's using the official API so I guess he thinks he'll be fine as long as he doesn't block ads. Time will tell.

A lot of the internet would break if YouTube removed/tweaked their embedded video player so I doubt he has to worry.

I can't tell. Is Emmett for or against e/acc
qt31415926 · 2 years ago
He's pointing out a motte/bailey meaning he's against the motte. If to him e/acc is the motte, then he's likely against

Err.. no it's not. It's trained on this stuff. It definitely knows how those games work after being trained on countless articles describing those games in detail.

Cool project nonetheless though!

qt31415926 commented on How many medical studies are faked or flawed?   web.archive.org/web/20230... · Posted by u/PaulHoule

How do you discern between a study that is flawed and one that is faked? For instance, you could use some methodology that you know to be flawed, and allow that flawed methodology to bias your result in a pre-determined direction. If you're ever caught, you just claim it was an honest error, but it functions exactly the same as if you generated the data wholesale.
qt31415926 · 2 years ago
He groups them together because ultimately the result is that the science can't be trusted. He doesn't go so far to claim that one was intentionally faked vs gross incompetence.
