Only if you profoundly misunderstand what GC is.


Ping Identity run the largest enterprise identity platforms on the planet after merging with ForgeRock last year. Think HSBC, JP Morgan Chase-scale.


>Humas learn dynamically

In-context learning (Few Shot Prompting) is absolutely demonstrable by LLMs since GPT 3.5 at least.


Yes, ICL demonstrates some capability, but is still extremely limited compared to a human's ability. It's an interesting baby step at this point.


So if someone inherits a fully paid off house, they are only allowed to rent it for a fraction of the rent allowed for the mortgaged, identical property next door? If a landlord wins the lottery, are they forced to lower the rent if they pay down their mortgage?

Public housing runs because the people administrating it have no disincentives to making poor decisions because ultimately it’s the tax payer who pays.

All this guarantees is a two-tier system. Owners and basic rental properties available.

Idk, what do you think is fair? In most rent controlled systems there is a per sqm pre-allowed rent. If you take out a mortgage that you can not service a mortgage with this rent-level, then you are at fault. On the contrary, if you don't have a mortgage, then you can pay yourself a higher salary for maintaining your rental unit.

However, if you "win the lottery" and get a house for free, don't you have the moral obligation to not maximize your rental income? You really don't need all this money (this discussion, btw, also goes into the nature of inheritance tax, where one could argue that a fair society should tax you in a way that forces you to take out a mortgage on the house you inherit - after all, you did not work for it)

The core of this is to what extend housing should be a part of a free market.

IMHO, there is plenty of opportunity right now - just move a out of the big cities and you get housing thrown at you. I do see an insistence on wanting to live in a few select cities followed by complaints that it is expensive.

Those markets are frequently characterised by poorly maintained rental stock.

>Don’t you have a moral obligation

No.


> Those markets are frequently characterised by poorly maintained rental stock.

Sure, you get what you pay for.

> No.

That is fair. You definitely represent the profit obsessed sentiments that put money ahead of people. I hope you go bankrupt in a crash of a bubble with nothing but your own greed to thank.

No.


>there goes 50-70% of the jobs in that sector.

Does this always follow though? Mass automation can just as easily make the existing staff far more effective, making the ROI easier to justify.


> uneducated people are highly limited in their use.

>taxes footing the bill.

It sounds like it is surviving only its own merits, merely shifted in time.

(Admittedly, from the perspective of an Australian whose strongest institutions are all public and the private universities are a bit of a joke)


If that architecture has no value in any circumstances at the beginning of a project and no value once the code base has matured, it’s an anti pattern.


Most devs / architects which initially designed the system then to not stick around and find out if what they did actually worked.


What an incredibly impolite way to respond to someone who is trying to tease out the point you continually failed to make.

Be better.


Friend, I read the comment that you’re replying to that if hostile governments wanted to backdoor our software supply-chains, it wouldn’t cost that much to corrupt an open source maintainer.

Whereas, if it was the norm for well used OS projects to be sponsored, it’s far less likely to be tempted by relatively small bribes.


GPT4 isn’t a chat service, friend.


I think the point that ipsum2 is trying to make is that Copilot's chat service and its code completion service could be using different models, which is not uncommon for coding assistants.

Continue[0] for example can use up to 3 different models in a session: a large model such as GPT-4 Turbo for chat and code QA, a smaller low latency model such as StarCoder2-3B for code completion, and yet another model such as all-MiniLM-L6-v2 for generating embeddings.
