    Very inspiring to hear your arteries are so pure, @MTF. I have to check out that book by Peter Attia. Dr. David Sinclair and Bryan Johnson are doing some really interesting work in the field of longevity and both are adhering to plant-based eating habits.

    GPT-3 Is A Coding Moron, is GPT-4 Any Better?

    IDEA 
    It's significantly better but the quality of its output will rely on your knowledge and abilities. If you're a total noob it can do some things but the more complexity you add, the more you need to actually know what you're doing. It's not going to be very useful unless you give it very...

    Dropping out of school

    SLOWLANE 
    If it's 100x tougher for you to study just by knowing a degree isn't required for some jobs, imagine how tough it will be for you when you realize that in any given sector there are competitors working 24/7 to destroy your business and take your customers, who are way smarter than you, have more...

    just some doctor

    INTRO 
    Well, you have a great username. The world has a SEVERE shortage of honest, ethical medical professionals at the moment. Hang in there. Your skills are valuable. Also I can recommend, be careful what you say and write and make affirmations about with saying "I'm this, I'm that" because you...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    HOT! CHAT 
    The lowest performing 10%-20% will for sure be replaced by AI. That is, those who just do enough and just know enough to squeak by. Overall though, it will probably make those who are good, better, and will enhance overall code quality and product quality. Github Copilot has been out for a...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    HOT! CHAT 
    If we compare the current pricing on their GPT-3 language models, it wouldn't be too bad if you are finding real value in it. For a mid-tier, 2M tokens per month using their Davinci model you are looking at about $40 per month which is roughly 1.5 million words per month, but input queries do...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    HOT! CHAT 
    It's really good as a code companion. Here is a very detailed answer it gave me to a question, along with an example and reasoning. This is probably going to make productive people more productive, and help unproductive people become productive.

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    HOT! CHAT 
    Imagine all the improvements we can make to society now that we can use AI to think at 1000x the speed we normally would think at. The low-hanging fruit type jobs are definitely going to be killed off by this tech but now we can solve more interesting and complex human-centered problems that we...

    Coding advice

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Pick any single book, course, etc. It won't be enough. You are going to have to drink from the firehose for a sustained period of time if you want to have any hope of developing software. These are great resources although I would say for an absolute beginner probably not the best place to start

    My Covid Experience...

    HEALTH 
    TBH, I'm proud of Canadians right now, and happy to have a French-Canadian last name. While simultaneously extremely ashamed of my country of birth (America). Wish I could hop the border and protest with the truckers right now. Revolution happening over there frfr.

    My Covid Experience...

    HEALTH 
    "Whose idea of healthy is a lean cuisine and a glass of Sunny D Orange Juice." That was a great line. Glad you are doing well and decided to go with your gut! Hope you feel 100% soon!

    This is true, the fiber contains oligosaccharides which interact with your gut microbiome. However, I recommend to stop eating canned beans!! Don't get me wrong, I understand they are super convenient and I personally used to eat them a lot. But the quality of homemade beans is SO MUCH BETTER...

    Programming

    It doesn't matter which resource you use. There is no definitive resource for coding. Use them all. Some resources are bad, some are great. You have to just pick things up and try them. There may be a 'bad resource' that contains that one piece of knowledge that you couldn't find in all the...

    Instructive Videogames

    IDEA 
    Educational video games have been under research for decades. Thanks to rpeck90 for reminding me about Kevin O'Leary's Reader Rabbit. I took a grad course in Georgia Tech's online computer science degree called Educational Technology, I was focused on gamification in educational technology. Did...

    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)

    HOT! CRYPTO 
    Exactly! Bitcoin did not gain the popularity because of chance. It has a solid use case as a back-up global reserve currency and has proven to be a highly liquid way to move money around almost instantly, providing a dramatic advancement to the global financial system. Most pump coins fail to...
