The formula is generic; my weights are for measuring engagement. (And, yes, I am very scared by the future downvotes.)

Insightful! Do you know of any "large scale" research on this? I.e. analysis of multiple related projects and/or of "real life stories." (I agree regardless.)

by antononcube 2y ago
Yes, that is a part of the measure I have in mind. Let me be more concrete. Terms: - P: Number of positive votes (of any comment) - N: Number of negative votes (of any comment) - V: Number of views of the image album - C: Number of comments

It seems you are describing how functional parsers (aka parser combinators) work. (BTW, there is a "Parser combinators" section in the featured post/article.)

Very long write-up! If you read it and like the content, you might consider ditching Python and start using Raku a lot and often.

by antononcube 2y ago
I don't know... It seems to be fairly entertaining, judging by the number of image album views and the number of comments here.

The applications that are WL-units suitable are much more than the WL-units unsuitable ones you refer to. It is true that I (and others) avoid using Wolfram Language (WL) units. Or try to get the computation expressions units-free as quickl

Yeah! In my opinion, the corresponding "real life" globes I found are pretty ugly when compared to the AI-generated images. For example, here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1400131282/chernobyl-snow-globe

There are six images, not one. Also, some might say that "a picture is worth a thousand words."

by antononcube 2y ago
Yes you can do that (easily) with Wolfram Language (aka Mathematica.) Here is an example: mat1 = Table[ RandomChoice[{ Quantity[RandomReal[], "Meters"], Quantity[RandomReal[], "Seconds"

Sorry. If I knew you will have such a negative reaction I would have not posted my reply to your IRL story.

by antononcube 2y ago
It is wrong to assume/state that people do not want to see these AI-generated images. At this point, ≈40 people have seen that _hidden_ Imgur post.

Wolfram Language (aka Mathematica) is the best for doing scientific computing with physical unit dimensions. See: https://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/Units.html > The units framework [of Wolfram Langua

Again, good to know. Although, my AI-generation was a response to an interesting comment. You do not think readers are interested to see how the Chernobyl snow-globes look like?! (Looking at AI generated images or store links.)

It is very interesting that my comment above was downvoted!

@ars is not saying that; @ars is stating a minimum range threshold to buy an Electric Vehicle (EV). I completely understand why would someone have such a threshold in USA. For example, a round trip starting and finishing from/to a plac

R and its ecosystem have some unbeatable features, but, generally speaking, the "old", base R is too arcane to be widely useful. Also, being "made by statisticians for statisticians" should be a big warning sign.

Thanks! See the Mathematica code in this Markdown file: https://github.com/antononcube/MathematicaVsR/blob/master/Pr...

Thanks for showing this! It is very motivating to develop (and finish) my Raku numerical integration project.

by antononcube 2y ago
You will be completely blown away, then, from what Wolfram Language (aka Mathematica) can do. (When it comes to numerical integration.) https://reference.wolfram.com/language/tutorial/NIntegrateOv...
53.
by antononcube 2y ago
I think the project should be called "NIntegrate". BTW, that is not a serious suggestion; it is just that Wolfram Language (aka Mathematica) has both `Integrate` and `NIntegrate` for symbolic and numeric integration, respectively.

by antononcube 2y ago
All good points. Except, I do not like Python that much, I would rather use non-Python-centric tools. (That is why I talk about Raku and Mathematica.) BTW, thanks for pointing to https://github.com/imbue-ai/jupyter_asc

I understand -- good luck!

Thanks for mentioning "Jupyter::Chatbook"! There is also "RakuMode" for Mathematica: https://resources.wolframcloud.com/PacletRepository/resource...

I will soon make attempts to support this kind of HTML notebook in/for Raku. Right now Raku's "notebook solutions" are Jupyter-based or Mathematica-based.

by antononcube 2y ago
This puzzle should be easy to solve with Wolfram Language (aka Mathematica) and Raku -- they know about the Knight's Tour graph. (By finding Hamiltonian paths.) I downloaded the app and played one game: - I like the language options. -

Yeah, I was thinking why featured article's author did not use Forsyth–Edwards Notation (FEN) and more complicated chess prompts. BTW, a year ago when I used FEN for chess playing, LLMs would very quickly/often make illegal moves.
