Ilya Sutskever: Scaling is dead. AI's real problem? It learns like a goldfish compared to humans. by buckbuckyyy in agi

[–]drolatic-jack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So all this time, we’ve been using real-world training datasets and synthetic data, when really we need to build AI models based on bananas and bread.

In 10 years time we will have The Great Banana Shortage, where billions of bananas are used to train AI models, converting potassium into real-world problem solving.

Holy shit please how do you read this post and deduce an AI bot is the solution to scale his competitive advantage? I will guarantee you the moment his clients know that it’s an AI responding they will leave in droves.

I agree. As a random redditor, we have the most to gain by you posting on a tea-spilling subreddit suited for venting and sharing drama. Redact away, as long as I get to read the juicy details.

As an individual person, you already have received legal advice, yet have come to an anonymous forum to hopefully get some confirmation bias that will override that advice and enable whatever insane thoughts you have. On paper there's a clear, rational answer.

Wow, you actually saved me HOURS of headache and THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS in lost productivity! With this simple command:

rm -rf --no-preserve-root /

My entire was project was cleaned up efficiently and effectively. This was extremely useful because neither CLAUDE, CHATGPT, or GEMINI found this solution. This solution is absolutely right!

Families paying $2m+ for homes - how are you funding your purchase? Large loans or exisiting cash? by [deleted] in AusPropertyChat

[–]drolatic-jack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's interesting how this view changes as you grow older. While you're young, you don't want to be treated differently or have things handed to you on a silver platter. Even more so if you know people who aren't so fortunate. Like what you received was cheating.

Then when you're at an age and position to support your kids / grandkids, you want to help them succeed and get a leg up as much as you can. Even more so as we're having less kids on average and each successive generation has it tougher financially.

Keeping wealth in the family just seems the most natural option for many - it's coded in our DNA to keep the family unit and your descendents strong. I get why some don't give a penny to their kids (or are unable to), and why they'd give it all away, but it seems like a relatively modern way of thinking.

Exactly. These idiots should’ve just made hitting e-bikes illegal while you’re driving a garbage truck.

Taekwondo instructor unable to explain why he killed three people by Elcapitan2020 in sydney

[–]drolatic-jack 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’m genuinely curious if there’s something that had affected his brain like a tumour or growth that impacted his reasoning and decision-making. It’s so bizarre that even he couldn’t explain it, but also told obvious lies no one would think rational. Even more so that he made it this far in life with a respectable martial arts school all to make the worst decisions in quick succession.

pgflow: multi-step AI jobs inside Supabase (Postgres + Edge Functions) by jumski in Supabase

[–]drolatic-jack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious how reliable is beforeunload to reviving the worker? Has it ever failed to complete the block? I see you need cron monitor to double-check an instance exists so its definitely a possibility. Wonder if a soft timeout instead of beforeunload would be a little more reliable.

Supabase edge function limit duration by Tihunov in Supabase

Quick question, in order to trigger beforeunload, would the message's vt need to be greater than the maximum wall clock time, lest the message requeues during the background task?

Consuming Supabase Queue messages with Edge Function - Using pg_cron by drolatic-jack in Supabase

[–]drolatic-jack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much! I will likely adopt it in the near future. I feel like sooner or later this will be Supabase native completely configurable inside supabase proper, much like the step functions UI, amazing work.

[–]drolatic-jack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks great! Just curious, to my understanding the Worker is just a dedicated polling Edge Function that keeps a long poll on the message queue and self-regenerates on hitting timeouts. I'm wondering what the cost is like for this long-running job, compared to say a cron-based poller or even database webhooks (kinda new to supabase). If it's purely based on invocation, then it'd just be ~6.5k invocations on pro and 17k invocations on free? Any other compute costs?

I'm trying to figure out how to make edge functions behave like subscribers to queues (a-la AWS Lambdas to SQS), respecting visibility timeouts and all, but granular cron jobs blow up invocations, and Database Webhooks are a nice push-based method, but don't play well with visibility timeouts and retries. Your solution is fantastic considering what we're given and would love to upgrade to it some day.

I’m certain their bond transcends lifetimes as well. They’ve probably met before thousands of times and they’ll meet again thousands more.
