The term absurdist pro-wrestling term "kayfabe" appears to be an attempt to pretend there are adults in the room in these situations. We've seen from the last years that's itself a deception to allow the right wing intel

Sagan comes in with a great quote - The problem is summed up by Carl Sagan: “Every time he [von Däniken] sees something he can’t understand, he attributes it to extraterrestrial intelligence, and since he understands almost nothing, he

Its completely trivial to export orgmode to markdown either as a process or just whenever you copy to the clipboard. Completely trivial isn't a big barrier to interoperation.

So this seems like a bit of a half measure in the sense that it doesn't provide client side build? With guix I can bit for bit reproduce with my client machine the upstream binaries. This seems flawed to assume that google's serve

Sprouted potatoes is a sing its time to get some new ones... you want to eat horded 6 month old potatoes glhf I don't eat fumigated strawberries so replacing fumigated strawberries with irradiated strawberries is... not useful?

You proved my point actually. Neither of those things is actually useful as an eater of food? You want less fresh food and from sketchier sources yet you think those are virtues?

As an EATER of food what is the benefit of CRISPR/GMO? There answer after a good 40 minutes of searching is... nothing. It's a technology 100% in service of being lazier/sloppier for industrial scale food production and in se

The alternative to radiation is mixing less poop into your meat etc.? You understand that the majority of "food science" is designed to allow increasingly lazier and sloppier food handling and allowing it to still be palatable

European consumers seem to not want factory farms that produce such low quality food that it needs to be CRISPRed (as is the case with this story) just to be kept alive long enough. I also am in that camp, I don't want to eat pork rais

Ask the LLM what calculations you might or should do (and how you might implement and test those calculations) is pretty wildly useful.

I think its much better to help people learn that an LLM is "not" a computer (even if it technically is). Thinking its a computer makes you do dumb things with them that they simply have never done a good job with. Build intuition

I agree with you partially, BUT when are the long list of 'enterprise' coworkers, who have glibly and overconfidently answered questions without doing math or looking them up, going to be fired?

I would never ask any of these questions of an LLM (and I use and rely on LLMs multiple times a day), this is a job for a computer. I would also never ask a coworker for this precise number either.

I have about 140 Emacs plugins running. I've never had to declare Emacs bankruptcy. 10 years of good times with Emacs+evil and 35 years of vim. Fwiw.

I don't understand the value of this abstraction. I can see the value of something like DSPy where there is some higher level abstractions in wiring together a system of llms. But this seems like an abstraction that doesn't really

This seems like a weird use of Rust. There is no mention of how much of the codebase is even in safe Rust after all this work so no clear value to the migration? Frequently when people get their code ported they then begin a process of redu
