Not mentioned in the article, one of the main reasons to ALWAYS do this is SEO. Regardless if users will play the video or not, web crawlers will not play the video and Google will penalize your SEO ranking if you use official Google's YouTube embed :D
Wow, to my surprise, the sound is incredibly annoying and stress-inducing.
At first I wasn't sure if it's some kind of poor-taste soundtrack, but that is only the background tune. The tap tap tap is the stainless steel device.
Edit: @hombre_fatal - Steel on steel will always clang.
it's supposed to be alarming, so you can go turn the heat down once something starts boiling enough to boil over. Similar to a stove-top pressure cooker, you have to wait for the sound to know where to set the heat.
I use a glass milk watcher while boiling milk for making yogurt, and the clak (not clank) sound is not that stress inducing. On the contrary, it's a heartbeat which says that your milk is safe from boiling over and tasty yogurt prospects are still strong.
Since then, I always try to book plane tickets with PayPal. It is a bit ironic that as an EU citizen, I was screwed by EU company (Lufthansa), EU politicians (German government), but saved by a private US company (PayPal) :D
Selling vouchers where you know some of them will go unused should be straight up illegal. It's fraud imo - taking money without actually providing a service. At the very least they should be automatically refunded after a reasonable time period.
It is there, not for all the benchmarks, but for those where it is included, GPT-4 scores much higher.
Not surprising since GPT-4 is still state-of-the-art and much bigger. Where Mistral has been particularly impressive is when you take the size of the model into account.

...can you just talk about why war work feels like war, and then what maybe people could do to make it feel less like war?
Jason Fried (01:09:29):
...a lot of work uses war metaphors. You're targeting customers. You are conquering a market... It says, "They conquer the market. They capture mindshare. They target customers. They employ a sales force. They hire head hunters. They destroy the competition. They pick battles and they make a killing."
That's how people talk about business. I find that to be depressing... We use words to establish a perspective in a way of thinking about the world. And if those are the words that are in your head, then you feel like it's this war. This is the other thing. People are always like, "What do the Navy SEALs do?" And they're like, "Heck, yeah." That's the Navy SEALs, man. It's not your software business. Why are we always looking to Navy SEALs to tell us how to run our business? "The military, they've got a group of eight and they do these."
It's like, "Yeah, okay, that's that context." Can we not look at that for a second about ... That's amazing. What they do is amazing, obviously, but what you're doing is you're making B2B accounting software. Let's just chill for a second here, okay? I like to think of words that are more additive and alternative. " We can exist. Let's exist. Let's make something great." Not, "Let's beat them, let's conquer them, let's make a killing." Let's just make something great. I think that matters, and it changes the way you think about the work that you do.
But the money does expire, it is called inflation!
Mainstream economist think inflation is good and recommend 1-3% for a healty economy. And inflation is more practical to implement than putting date stamps on the back of bills like the original idea in the article.
