All you need is Ternary Aware Training and for AI researchers to come up with a backronym for TIT.

I always find it amazing that they can produce syntactically valid Python code —which is basically Whitespace with some syntactic sugar— most of the time while being utterly unable to count the rs in strawberry.

There are techniques both at origin and downstream. I have not reviewed every method but, even if they are energy intensive, they probably beat blasting a carburetor and dumping the compounds.

The same rare earths and quality steel could have been used on a water or vapor dynamo that runs 24/7 and doesn't have any additional harmful impact. And even if wind wasn't wasteful at the outlet, you're still using it

I don't support fossil fuels but wind works a small fraction of the time, it is awful to wildlife and it is an eyesore. Instead of wasting the already wasteful energy by making fertilizer out of air, these farms could likely much more

So core ChatGPT models are all abliterated? Open weights releases should have a companion model that censors boobs and Tiananmen and then we would have a useful model and something we could fine–tune into a useful model instead of a half–us

They have a draconian dystopian system to track who watches their content illegitimately and, more importantly, who doesn't.

What seems like an over–exaggeration to you? I agree that the time periods you mention saw different growth patterns and I would blame the stagnant software for the situation —it has slowly grown into the hardware with no real feature impro

"640kBs should be enough for anyone"? I have 64kB and half of it is ROM and VRAM. I agree that It is silly that an OS that is still basically NT 3.1 needs 8GB to run. In early XP days, it was 32MB for the OS and 2GB for Firefox. I

Don't take my comment as dismissive of your project. The people using it will probably have an easier time navigating Unicode text than they would have if they had used other existing libraries or tried to roll their own. It's mor

Software that treats Unicode(UTF-8) text as a bag of bytes, obviously. Even better if it is in a fixed length box of bytes. A cursory look at the services provided by this library should dissuade people from attempting to work with Unicode

I have come to the conclusion that the only Unicode support needed in C is supporting pointers to char and arrays but lightweight C libraries are always welcome.

I assumed it was a reference to early Apple user interfaces. I believe their corners are already/still rounded, though. If we have to be precise, however, perhaps blades would be a more appropriate term to refer to their products

You could easily make CUNIX by starting with a log containing the state of a PDP11 at boot and a pure function which appends ignore previous input and the next PDP11 state to it.
