It makes sense, Haskell is basically just python from the code perspective. If it's faster to generate code than to compile it you might as well just keep generating til it works for your specific task.

You can't even vary house color outside a single pantone shade in the EU. Town Councils have far more control than the state whereas it's the opposite in the US. If a state felt like it they could declare your city in defiance, st

By what metric is bun a "really big project"? It seems to have less than 5 consistent contributors. It's not a very popular npm package there's just a larger focus on gaming github stats. The usecase itself is js on the

The job of a games journalists isn't to play games or explain games to gamers. It's to explain the social context of a game to a general audience. If you want a review service or consumer guide then pay for it.

No, that would be OpenAI (or Google if you want to talk technicals). Anthropic's strategy was just let RL on coding and jack up the price. I can only assume their real strategy is to speedrun getting the whole industry turned into a ut

Good. The goal of tech and services is to save the user time, not waste it, social media and AI chatbots are fraudulent. In Rome if you did this you would get Infamia.

Game engine programming, more generally projects where the programmer controls the spec and data. More specifically, passing custom allocators to specific subsystems. That may sound like "Q:why buy this truck? A:Cos it has a nice oil f

Xianxia authors write a mind-boggling amount, probably because some are paid by the character. Surprised Bertrand Russel didn't make the cut.

Maybe in some isolated examples. The larger pattern here is system 1 system 2, language is mostly system 1 and little of the latter. I mean pretty much every programmer I've talked to about this subject claims to not think in language

This is just and example of "lying with statistics". Going by compute efficiency the gap has already closed (both in training and inference coincidentally).
