11 ways ChatGPT saves me hours of work every day, and why you'll never outcompete those who use AI effectively.

A list for those who write code:

1 of 16

 1. Explaining code

Take some code you want to understand and ask ChatGPT to explain it.

I've found explanations are very detailed. This is much quicker than trying to figure out convoluted code.

2 of 16
2. Improve existing code

Ask ChatGPT to improve existing code by describing what you want to accomplish.

It will give you instructions about how to do it, including the modified code.

3 of 16
3. Rewriting code using the correct style

This is great when refactoring code written by non-native Python developers who used a different naming convention.

Notice how ChatGPT not only gives you the updated code; it also explains the reason for the changes.

4 of 16
4. Rewriting code using idiomatic constructs

Very helpful when reviewing and refactoring code written by non-native Python developers.

ChatGPT knows the "Pythonic" way, and it will give you suggestions to improve your code and make it much more readable.

5 of 16
5. Simplifying code

This is one of my favorite tricks: Ask ChatGPT to simplify complex code.

The result will be a much more compact version of the original code.

Notice the explanation and how it tells us this is simpler but not the most efficient.

6 of 16
6. Writing test cases

This has become one of my favorite ChatGPT abilities: Ask it to help you test a function, and it will write test cases for you.

This example focuses on the quick_sort function from the previous example.

7 of 16
7. Exploring alternatives

ChatGPT told me its Quick Sort implementation wasn't the most efficient, so I asked for an alternative implementation.

This is great when you want to explore different ways to accomplish the same thing.

I've learned a ton from this!

8 of 16
8. Translating code

Anytime you want to port some code from one language to another, ask ChatGPT to help you.

9 of 16
9. Writing documentation

This is another one of my favorite tricks.

Ask ChatGPT to write the documentation for a piece of code, and it usually does a great job.

It even includes usage examples as part of the documentation!

10 of 16
10. Tracking down bugs

If you are having trouble finding a bug in your code, ask ChatGPT for help.

It took ChatGPT seconds to find the bug in the attached example. I don't know about you, but it would have taken me much longer than that.

11 of 16
11. Scaffolding

Probably the way I use it the most is to kick off the structure of anything new I want to write. GitHub Copilot does a great job at this as well.

An example where this is very useful is when interacting with a RESTful API.

Something to keep in mind:

I have 2+ decades of programming experience. I like to think I know what I'm doing.

I don't trust people's code (especially mine,) and I surely don't trust ChatGPT's output.

13 of 16
This is not about letting ChatGPT do my work. This is about using it to 10x my output.

ChatGPT is flawed. I find it makes mistakes when dealing with code, but that's why I'm here: to supervise it.

Together we form a more perfect Union. (Sorry, couldn't help it)

14 of 16
Developers who shit on this are missing the point.

The story is not about ChatGPT taking programmers' jobs. It's not about a missing import here or a subtle mistake there.

The story is how, overnight, AI gives programmers a 100x boost.

Ignore this at your own peril.

Next time, I'll show you how to build an end-to-end deep learning model using ChatGPT.

I'll only ask questions.

It'll blow your mind.

Follow me @svpino to ensure you don't miss it.

For a long time, I didn't understand how to use Virtual Environments in Python 🐍.

If this is just, let's end it here and now: 🧵👇

[2] Virtual Environments let you deal with the dependencies that your code has with external Python libraries.

It avoids having conflicts when your projects depend on different versions of the same library.

👇

[3] Let's imagine that you are building your first Python project and you install the "requests" library:

pip install requests

You get version 2.24.0 installed in your system.

👇

[4] A month later, you decide to work on your second project. It also needs the "requests" library.

But the latest version is not 2.24.0 anymore.

Now version 3 is available, and that's the one you want to use!

👇

[5] You could upgrade your entire system to version 3, but then you'll be potentially breaking the first project you built that depends on 2.24.0!

Can you imagine this happening on a server with many more applications running?

Here is a simple example of a machine learning model.

I put it together a long time ago, and it was very helpful! I sliced it apart a thousand times until things started to make sense.

It's TensorFlow and Keras.

If you are starting out, this may be a good puzzle to solve.


The goal of this model is to learn to multiply one-digit

I'll blow your mind with a technique you aren't using yet.

Sometimes, you want your system to do exactly the opposite of what your machine learning model thinks you should do.

Let me convince you. ↓

I'm going to start with a nice problem:

Imagine a model that looks at a picture of an electrical transformer and predicts whether it's about to break or not.

Don't worry about how the model does this. We are going to focus on the results instead.

There are 4 possible results for this model:

1. It predicts a bad unit as bad.
2. It predicts a bad unit as good.
3. It predicts a good unit as bad.
4. It predicts a good unit as good.

#2 and #3 are the mistakes the model makes.

Assuming we run 100 units through the model, we can organize the results in a matrix:

• The rows represent the "actual" condition of the transformer.

• The columns represent the "prediction" of the model.

We call this a "Confusion Matrix."


This is how we can read this confusion matrix:

• 60 bad units were predicted as bad.
• 3 bad units were predicted as good.
• 7 good units were predicted as bad.
• 30 good units were predicted as good.

TYPES OF SINS(PAAP) AS PER SKAND PURAN.

There are three types of Adharma- Sthool, Sukshma and Ati Sukshma. The group of Sins in the Sthul section carries you to Narak. These sins are committed through your thoughts, words and deeds.


It is of four types.

D)Talking ill about others.

3)Third type of sin is committed through your body actions-

A)Eating food not prescribed to you or forbidden.

B)Violence.

C)Eating fancier food.

D)Acquiring other's wealth.

So these twelve types of sins.

There are six types of sinners or Mahapatak

1)One not bowing his head in front of a temple.

“Don’t leave the church because of the people who hurt you. Nobody is perfect, only God”

I’ll explain why this comment is not only not helpful at all, but also very harmful.

1/

The comment assumes we can’t tell the difference between people and toxic theology, it assumes our issues are with a few people who are outliers and misrepresented God, and we just seem to think that’s the totality of divinity. Which makes us appear unintelligent and petty.

2/

But, that’s not the case at all. I didn’t leave because a few people hurt me in the name of God, in fact I stayed long enough to get hurt again, and again, and again, and again. Because it’s not a few bad apples hurting people in the name of God what we are dealing with.

3/

Instead we are talking about systemic abuse due to toxic theology that is taught as righteousness.

Go to any white evangelical church today and conduct all the tests you must to ensure only those who are “good Christians,” remain. I guarantee you people will be harmed there.
4/

Not because people just hurt people, not because Christians have good intentions but sometimes make mistakes; instead because the harm is caused due to indoctrination into toxic theology and a belief that their social and theological framework is not only good,

Trump is gonna let the Mueller investigation end all on it's own. It's obvious. All the hysteria of the past 2 weeks about his supposed impending firing of Mueller was a distraction. He was never going to fire Mueller and he's not going to


Mueller's officially end his investigation all on his own and he's gonna say he found no evidence of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election.

Democrats & DNC Media are going to LITERALLY have nothing coherent to say in response to that.

Mueller's team was 100% partisan.

That's why it's brilliant. NOBODY will be able to claim this team of partisan Democrats didn't go the EXTRA 20 MILES looking for ANY evidence they could find of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election

They looked high.

They looked low.

They looked underneath every rock, behind every tree, into every bush.

And they found...NOTHING.

Those saying Mueller will file obstruction charges against Trump: laughable.

What documents did Trump tell the Mueller team it couldn't have? What witnesses were withheld and never interviewed?

THERE WEREN'T ANY.

Mueller got full 100% cooperation as the record will show.

A thread on the life and achievements of Muhiyudin Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jillani RadiAllah who served Islam infinitely as the Reviver (Mujadid) of the 11th Century!


Muhiyudin Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) was one of the greatest Islamic Saint, Scholar, and Jurist. The honorific Muhiyudin denotes his status with many Sufis as a "reviver of religion". Jilani refers to his place of birth. He also carried the epithet Baghdadi.

[1]

Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani was born on the eve of the 2nd of Ramadan 470 AH. His birth was a great blessing for the Ummah. It was the arrival of the Sultan al-Awliya (King of the Awliya) of that era, which had been foretold for centuries before his birth.

[2]

When Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jillani was asked by someone what brought him to his high spiritual level, he said, The truthfulness which I promised to my mother. He related the following story:
"One day, on the eve of Eid al-Adhā, I went to my mother, who was then a widow and..

[3]

..and requested her, 'Send me to the path of Truth, give me permission to go to Baghdad to acquire knowledge, to be with the wise and those who are close to Allah. She cried, but she brought out 80 pieces of gold, which was all that my father had left as inheritance.

Stan Lee’s fictional superheroes lived in the real New York. Here’s where they lived, and why. https://t.co/oV1IGGN8R6


Stan Lee, who died Monday at 95, was born in Manhattan and graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx. His pulp-fiction heroes have come to define much of popular culture in the early 21st century.

Tying Marvel’s stable of pulp-fiction heroes to a real place — New York — served a counterbalance to the sometimes gravity-challenged action and the improbability of the stories. That was just what Stan Lee wanted. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i


The New York universe hooked readers. And the artists drew what they were familiar with, which made the Marvel universe authentic-looking, down to the water towers atop many of the buildings. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i


The Avengers Mansion was a Beaux-Arts palace. Fans know it as 890 Fifth Avenue. The Frick Collection, which now occupies the place, uses the address of the front door: 1 East 70th Street.
