via reddit via twitter, apparently r/MachineLearning lets visitors read it again? uses chatgpt, works on whole repositories https://github.com/sweepai/sweep <b>Sweep</b> allows you to create and review GitHub issues with ease. Simply describe any issue and Sweep will do the rest. It will plan out what needs to be done, what changes to make, and write the changes to a PR. Supported languages: Python, Javascript/Typescript, Rust, Go, Java/C#, C++ and anything else GPT-4 supports --- ## ✨ Demo For the best experience, [install Sweep](https://github.com/apps/sweep-ai) to one of your repos and see the magic happen. [Demo](https://github.com/sweepai/sweep/assets/44910023/365ec29f-7317-40a7-9… ## 🚀 Getting Started ### 🖥️ Sweep Chat Sweep Chat allows you to interact with Sweep locally and will sync with GitHub. You can plan out your changes with Sweep, and then Sweep can create a pull request for you. 1. Install [Sweep GitHub app](https://github.com/apps/sweep-ai) to desired repos 2. Run `pip install sweepai && sweep` 3. This should spin up a GitHub auth flow in your browser. Copy-paste the 🔵 blue 8-digit code from your terminal into the page. Then wait a few seconds and it should spin up Sweep Chat. You should only need to do the auth once. 4. Pick a repo from the dropdown at the top (the Github app must be installed on this repo). Then start chatting with Sweep Chat. Relevant searched files will show up on the right. Sweep Chat can make PRs if you ask it to create a PR. <img src="https://github.com/sweepai/sweep/blob/856ff66c2dbeaf39afbf6d8c49a620dfa7027…"> 💡 You can force dark mode by going to http://127.0.0.1:7861/?__theme=dark. #### From Source If you want the nightly build and or if the latest build has issues. 1. `git clone https://github.com/sweepai/sweep && poetry install` 2. `python sweepai/app/cli.py` ### ✨ Sweep Github App Setting up Sweep is as simple as adding the GitHub bot to a repo, then creating an issue for the bot to address. 1. Add the [Sweep GitHub app](https://github.com/apps/sweep-ai) to desired repos 2. Create new issue in repo, like "Sweep: Write tests" 3. "👀" means it is taking a look, and it will generate the desired code 4. "🚀" means the bot has finished its job and created a PR For more detailed docs, see [🚀 Quickstart](https://docs.sweep.dev/start). --- ## 📘 Story We were frustrated by small tickets, like simple bug fixes, annoying refactors, and small features, each task requiring us to open our IDE to fix simple bugs. So, we decided to leverage the capabilities of ChatGPT to address this directly in GitHub. Unlike existing AI solutions, this can solve entire tickets and can be parallelized: developers can spin up 10 tickets and Sweep will address them all at once. ## 📚 The Stack - GPT-4 32k 0613 (default) / Claude v1.3 100k - ActiveLoop DeepLake for Vector DB with MiniLM L12 as our embeddings model - Modal Labs for infra + deployment ## 🌠 Features * Automatic feature development * PR auto self-review + comment handling (effectively [Reflexion](https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.11366)) * Address developer comments after PR is created * Code snippets embedding-based search * Chain-of-Thought retrieval using GPT Functions ## 🗺️ Roadmap We're currently working on responding to linters and external search.

Ethiopia applies to join the BRICS bloc of emerging economies

Ethiopia applies to join the BRICS bloc of emerging economies BRICS countries account for more than 40 percent of the world’s population and about 26 percent of the global economy. Prime Minister of Ethiopia Abiy Ahmed arrives for the Meskel Square inauguration in Addis Ababa on June 13, 2021 Prime Minister of Ethiopia Abiy Ahmed arrives for the Meskel Square inauguration in Addis Ababa on June 13, 2021 [Amanuel Sileshi/AFP] Published On 30 Jun 2023 30 Jun 2023 Ethiopia, one of Africa’s fastest-growing economies, has asked to join the BRICS bloc of emerging markets, the foreign ministry said on Thursday. The term BRIC was coined by Goldman Sachs economist Jim O’Neill in 2001 to describe the rise of Brazil, Russia, India and China. The BRIC powers had their first summit in 2009 in Russia. South Africa joined in 2010, making it BRICS. “We expect BRICS will give us a positive response to the request we have made,” foreign ministry spokesperson Meles Alem told journalists, according to state-run news agency ENA. Ethiopia will continue to work with international institutions that can protect its interests, he said. The Horn of Africa nation has the second-largest population in Africa, but its economy ranks only 59th in the world according to the International Monetary Fund and is less than half the size of the smallest BRICS member South Africa. Last year Argentina, the world’s 23rd largest economy, said it had received China’s formal support to join the group, which is seen as a powerful emerging-market alternative to the West. The bloc has also previously said that other countries have also applied to join. BRICS countries account for more than 40 percent of the world’s population and about 26 percent of the global economy. South Africa said on Thursday it would host the next summit in August as planned, amid speculation it could be moved to a country where Russia’s President Vladimir Putin would not face arrest over war crimes accusations. In March, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued a warrant for his arrest for allegedly deporting children from Ukraine to Russia. That has spurred debate within and beyond South Africa, an ICC signatory which is obligated to arrest Putin if he visits the country for the BRICS summit https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/6/30/ethiopia-applies-to-join-the-brics…

China 'absolutely obsessed' with cutting spending at UN
by Gunnar Larson 03 Jul '23

03 Jul '23

Is China becoming a cheapskate at the United Nations? As the country of over 1.4 billion people increases its muscle-flexing on the world stage, that swagger comes with more financial responsibilities at the world body. Apparently, it also comes with a dose of frugality, our U.N. correspondent Colum Lynch reports. Earlier last month, Beijing proposed cutting more than $150 million from the U.N.’s $6.83 billion peacekeeping budget proposal for 2023/2024, according to an internal U.N. budget spreadsheet that Colum reviewed. In doing so, it joined the ranks of the fiscally hawkish Americans, although China’s budget battles have more to do with eliminating posts that promote human rights, gender equality, and victims’ rights (neither the U.S. nor China succeeded in slashing the budget, by the way). “They are absolutely obsessed with cutting,” says one U.N.-based diplomat involved in budget negotiations. “Their concern is now one of a major contributor, which is reducing to the extent you can the level of your contribution.” The spending squabbling came to a head over the amount of money it will take to evacuate U.N. personnel from Mali, where the government recently kicked out all peacekeepers. The U.S. and European partners wanted more money and time to close shop than did China and Russia. In the end they settled on a Goldilocks compromise — for some it was too much money, for others it was far too little. https://www.devex.com/news/china-absolutely-obsessed-with-cutting-spending-…

G man seems to have as much a clue about anarchism as that Semich imbecile. Both are clearly spammers attacking this list - so the only question now is which one of the larger circle of eunuchs will ever step up with a modest APster pledge on these perps? My Deadpool on Semich now also applies to Popgun. 2k sats cash in the claw. Money talks - bullshit walks
