Have you actually tried reading a single law? If you have, have you tried to write just one article in formal logic? Certain laws, like parts of tax law may be possible to turn into code, like percentages and deadlines, but even those often

ML is part of AI, and has always been. AI is not equal to chatgpt and AI wasn't coined/conceived in November 2022.

There are plenty of smart people in the "AI community" already who know it. Smugly commenting does not replace actual work. If you have real insight and can make something perform better, I guarantee you that many people will list

2 months ago I built (with Claude) a quite advanced Python CLI script and Claude Skill that searches and filters the Claude logs to access information from other sessions or from the same session before context compaction. But today Claude

It was a joke. But also my use of not x but y is not rhetorical but declarative. The whole point is that what many of us are talking about is not simply these surface patterns but how they are used and how the narrative rhythm of the senten

But it's also often a shoehorned artificial contrast that doesn't really make sense. The Y is often not such a different thing from the X that would make it worthy an actual "not just X but Y" claim. Or the Y is a vague

by bonoboTP 7mo ago
It's not just patterns like "not just X, but Y", but also deeper patterns and a kind of narrative cadence. Sure it's also mimicking something real, but usually it's a mismatch between the insightfulness of the conte

You may like DokuWiki. It's a wiki you can browse and edit in a browser but stores its data as human-readable files, not in a database.

No, its the natural cycle. What passes away fades away. Anything that is kept up needs to be kept up actively by the generations. That which is valued needs to be preserved, such as wisdom, knowledge, art, science etc. All your drama and id

No, the dead can't exert such influence from the grave. You're dead. It's the next generation's turn. If you were the kind of person whose diary the kids or grandkids want to see thrown in the trash, then that's how

Yes, though unless you used non-mainstream platforms, all messages are already on the servers of Meta or Google. Not sure how much worse Anthropic is.

I agree, and now all that stuff is on Anthropic's servers. It is stalker-ish to write up biographies like this about your relatives. It's one thing to write up the weddings and upbeat things like this, but not all families lives a

Yes, every slack is optimized out of systems. If something has an ounce more quality than would suffice to obtain the same profit, it must be cut out. It's an inefficiency. A quality overhang. If people buy it even if it's crap, t

Oh I see, I hate the new UI of Office. I somewhat accept the ribbon, but this new full screen file menu replacement where they try to make you save stuff to the cloud makes me want to go back to the good old File > Save as... > Dialog

Files and folders are already a helpful metaphor taken from paper based office work. You have container folders and you can put different files (pieces of paper) into different folders. The thing thats a bit conceptually hard for regular pe

I agree on the facts but I think the gatekeeping effect is probably helpful for the current users. If we had a giant influx of computing illiterate people, the platform would enshittify. They would move towards android-type lock downs and u

That would be 420k/yr. To get to 4 million you need 25000 users. That's quite a big company.

That can happen if the history got compacted away in a long session. But usually AI agents also have a way to re-read the entire log from the disk. Eg Claude Code stores all user messages, LLM messages and thinking traces, tool calls etc in

There is a field of AutoML, with its own specialized academic literature and libraries that tried to achieve this type of thing but didn't work very well in practice. Years ago there were big hopes about bayesian hyperparameter optimiz

We are talking about a different kind of moderation. People want to filter out incorrect information that in their opinion damages the reputation of Arxiv, eg covid stuff. It's not about dumping binary data. This is a motte and bailey

Yes and if you withhold anything in Japanese language from the training set, the LLM will be quite lousy at writing in Japanese even if you put some language coursebook into its context. I'm not sure what this is supposed to prove. The

I'm not sure how long this state of robotics will last. Dexterity is improving very fast. Robots are getting cheaper and cheaper. But also, a lot of the manual labor is quite expensive and only affordable as long as there are white col
