   Have they heard of our lord and saviour “mapreduce”? x = mapreduce(f, r, arr, init) equivalent to x=init for e in arr r(x, f(e)) end Of course, if r is ever something different than a simple operator, slap yourself. But otherwise it’

   I wonder how these kinds of papers get funding at all…

   Terrific presentation. But I have a comment: His dismissal of the argument Knuth makes regarding the hot loops could have been explored a bit better. I found it weird he didn’t mention the difference of types of programs of then vs now. Eve

   We were encountering a panic in the lib and could not really figure out why it was firing. The project kind of stalled due to lack of time and funding anyway unfortunately.

   I am running Ornith 1.5 Q4 on my work issued laptop which surprisingly has 40gb of RAM and 20GB of “unified” VRAM. I am getting 50t/s of prefill and 5-6t/s of inference. You can’t get crazy with it, but it’s pretty nice to just le

    Very nice! I’d be curious to see if there are words that didn’t show a spike in utilization. So basically all those words that were used before and are still being used today by LLMs and humans alike!

    Small OT: > Maybe I should document what I did! Please do! Me and a bunch of friends worked on a project that used diamond-types as the backing CRDT engine. It does indeed go brrrr. But damn, it took way too long to reconstruct what it w

    Been using it for a year or so on my main box. Never had any kind of issue. Snapshots saved my ass a couple of times. All in all it’s been pretty boring (in a good way)

    I really like the approach Julia is taking. The std libs are their own packages with their own versions. You can then build your own “standard library” by compiling a sysimage that freezes the versions (you can add third party packages as w

    The Applications folder itself is the equivalent. You can select an app and just press delete.

    Been using the great and free AppCleaner[1] since I have memory. It's so good I just forget it's there. It autodetects when you delete an app from the Applications folder runs a quick scan and suggests which other files you might

    Here’s an even wilder take: to support the effort of someone that gave us an incredible font that is now being copied. Crazy right?

    Something something boomers? The 70s is when baby boomers start entering the working force (~in their early twenties). Not saying the sole cause, but the population (delayed) shock[1] alone could be a huge factor. [1] https://en

    I think that this new paradigm in mathematics will allow for more math being born out of curiosity and creativity. Many mathematicians have built their career around hyper specialization, and are now the most threatened because LLM excel in

    Americans don’t get scolded enough for their abuse of AC. In terms of accounting for preventable waste of energy, US guzzles more electricity on cooling than most countries do on everything else.

    This reminds me of Patrician III so much. The sailing battles had the same wind mechanics. It’s amazing, so many memories unlocked.

    You could take a stab at Julia. It’s still dynamic in nature. But you can tune how much staticity you want. The spectrum goes from Python to C in terms of staticity. And with tools like JETLS.jl maturing you get a lot of the benefits static

    I’ve landed on a very similar usage in my last pet project. I’ve used the llm mainly as a glorified refactoring tool/LSP/rubber duck. I can define custom skills that act as specific passes over the codebase that are hard to do wit
