  • In computer science, garbage in, garbage out (GIGO) is the concept that flawed, biased or poor quality (“garbage”) information or input produces a result or output of similar (“garbage”) quality. The adage points to the need to improve data quality in, for example, programming.

    There was some research article applying this 70s computer science concept to LLMs. It was published in Nature and hit major news outlets. Basically they further trained GPT on its output for a couple generations, until the model degraded terribly. Sounded obvious to me, but seeing it happen on the www is painful nonetheless…

    Thanks, now I can understand. I wouldn’t know about US demographics, but stil… I’ve lived in Argentina for 95% of my life and never heard this thing until I emigrated to the EU. Truly, I can hardly think we have more Germans than the rest of latinoamerica… We dodid have lots of europeans that came in between, and around, both world wars. The majority are from Spain and Italy.

    It’s difficult to know if this might just be a correlation to age of onset, plus the effect of new project or work. Maybe other graduates of similar careers (i.e. chemists going into big pharma) that doesn’t go into PhD programmes would be a nice control. But there’s no curve there.

    Alas, I know academia is difficult. But I wouldn’t dare drawing conclusions without a proper comparison.


  • Create a user, and then a systemd unit for it, under ~/.config/systemd/user/ with contents like these:

    [Unit]
    Description=Caddy web server
    After=network.target
    
    [Service]
    ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/caddy run --config /path/to/Caddyfile --envfile /path/to/Envfile
    ExecReload=/usr/local/bin/caddy reload --config /path/to/Caddyfile --envfile /path/to/Envfile
    Restart=on-failure
    User=caddy
    Group=caddy
    
    [Install]
    WantedBy=default.target
    

    Adjust the paths in the arguments. It will require systemctl daemon-reload for such unit to be available for enabling and starting it…
