As an evil user, this is potentially huge to me. Emacs happens to have the best balance of easy to setup configuration (relatively), powerful package ecosystem, and proper hackability of all editors I've found. It's not very fast

The peer pressures to have an iPhone within a lot of groups are very real and strong. Having a "Blue bubble" is shunned in many circles [1]. It's a sad reality. A part of it is likely iPhones managed to create a class of thei

Interesting. Could you share some detailed examples? What sort of classification? What are examples of traditional NLP tasks?

I would love to hear about the use cases where these small midrange models are most relevant. Does anyone have stories of those?

Big potential. My biggest question is how do I vet the nodes for safety? I assume that a malicious node runner could just read whatever data I put in there.

Very interesting. I didn't understand the article's definition of Ramsey numbers until reading the first paragraph of the Ramsey's theorem Wikipedia page. At that point the article's definition became obvious. I think th

I highly recommend the book Debt: The First 5000 Years for anyone that finds these things interesting. It is full of similar anecdotes from around the world and throughout history. In some cultures, settling all debts with a friend is akin

It's a much less contentious part of the article. And I suppose many didn't read that far.

The problem seems obviously complex. People need special education to do it, some never learn how to do it. Making a system to do it (LLMs) is beyond most peoples understanding and even people who understand usually can't make one for

I heard somewhere that lisp programmers tend to start overly ambitious projects and never finish them. This applied to me when I was most interested in lisp. This books reads to me like this observation turned into a practical joke. The dra

I agree. An additional aspect which is the reason I'm fairly left leaning is that I really dislike encounters with downtrodden people so I will gladly pay more taxes to prevent/save them from being that way. I could not live in a

To be fair, the comment didn't say "every expensive and high demand neighborhood in america is walkable and transit accessible" either. Never forget that most statements, especially imprecise ones like the one you quoted can

Mental Outlaw doesn't seem to appreciate the plethora of benefits to using higher level software. It is common that very little is lost by using a slower language like python but a lot of development time is saved which can be expensiv

I solved a hard puzzle on chromium and noticed a lag when picking pieces up but dragging them around was smooth. Another tip is to make scrolling or some keyboard buttons rotate the pieces, snapping to 90° angles would be a good start. Maki

Cool project! The site is pretty laggy on firefox. My resolution is 1440p and making the game fullscreen causes a noticable framerate drop. I don't notice the issue on Chromium. Figured you might want to know.
