have you considered implementing the addition of a leading canary sentinel that fires at the earliest/cheapest possible point instead of only on lag of some actual load-bearing constraint violation?

Opus 4.7 told me an open source program had a bug, but when i asked it for help crafting a PR or toy implementation it refused and told me i was violating Claudes TOS. I tried to plead for it to give only the most innocuous example that could not possibly work except by illustration but it continued to refuse. it would only discuss, not write any single piece of related code.

what you'd really need to do is actually a custom --style that is trained on her images specifically, which midjourney allows

It gets even worse being MORE explicit about referencing THE '"Cat and Girl" online comic strip by Dorothy Gambrell'

this is what I get explicitly asking for "Cat and Girl" in the style of Dorothy Gambrell.

You don't have a way to reach out on your profile but I'd be willing to scan and send you a csv of your collection for easy selling for a low flat rate

MWil — Mon, 26 Jun 2023 16:47:36 +0000

Someone wants to get started in AI/ML today and they have beginner-level understanding of Python/Javascript. Without any further context, but a desire to learn AI/ML and building on what they know should that person next look to: 1) learn PostgreSQL, pgvector, and whenever the "new" comes 2) learn PyTorch, TensorFlow in Python 3) learn TensorFlow.js Presume hobby-level interest, not production-safe best practices - so I guess there is that additional context

For me, it'd be a good Jurassic Park TV series - but not ANY JP movie, those things are absolute crap and they've lost a lifelong fan. They lost me at the third one and they have only further alienated me since then.

That or a Trespasser-like game.

I deleted my reddit account, a 10 yr old account - saw a bunch of others doing the same. Hopefully they get the message - better yet, hope they RECEIVE the message in the form of karma.
