PROGRAMMING RESOURCES
The common practice of redirecting API calls from HTTP to HTTPS should be reconsidered. Many programmatic API clients don't keep browser-like state of things like HSTS headers they have seen. The usability-security tradeoff argument doesn't apply as APIs are mostly consumed by other software. HTTP interfaces should be disabled entirely or return clear error responses for unencrypted requests. API credentials sent over unencrypted connections should be considered compromised and revoked.
Andrej Karpathy has released an update to LLM C, a single self contained GPT-2 implementation aimed at reproducing the 2019 suite of models. With this most recent update, the library is able to train the smallest of these models in just 90 minutes. It runs end to end and has minimal dependencies.

PROMPT OF THE DAY
Time-saving automation
My business is [describe your business] and my tasks include [describe the tasks in your role]. For each task, ask how this task is currently being completed and ascertain if this task could be automated. Once we identify tasks that might benefit from automation, create a 3-column table with these column headers: task, process now, process with automation. In column 2, outline these processes in detail, and in column 3 create a plan for how each task could be automated. This structured approach will help me automate my business or prepare to work with an AI expert to implement time-saving automation.
