(Not OP) I can think of a convoluted and expensive pair-wise comparison method, but I hope there's also a way to figure this out during the application of principal component analysis in a way I don't understand. Edit: I'm th

Well, they do have meaning by themselves, but it's more work to figure that out. All regular, predictable relationships "have" meaning because all meaning is prescribed . And since we've captured many such prescriptio

We don't know what to label those features/dimensions, because they're a reduction form higher dimensions that we also didn't bother to interrogate. It's possible to figure them out. I wish OP would.

The Draeger's jam study, conducted by Sheena Iyengar and Mark Lepper in 2000, suggests that consumers are more likely to purchase when faced with fewer choices. When a selection of jams was reduced from 24 to 6, purchases increased sig

You had me at "whole org test" harness. This is a very, very interesting idea. Especially in conjunction with the concept of corporation as "slow AI" that I don't hear referenced often enough. I don't see why y

There are no sprints in agile. ;) On the contrary, per the Manifesto: > Agile processes promote sustainable development. > The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.

Yes, I know that it's my job to write good code. What I'm wondering is how must I design modules to accommodate this framework? I guess what's not immediately clear to me is what's in scope for eg eval. I'll have t

Why not? Shakespeare's prose is exceptional, and all in the form of dialog. It seems an exemplary, even ideal source of language to emulate.

Right, $1 / month is not worth the overhead to enterprise customers. My understanding is that many would rather find a $10,000 / month solution that has all the bells and whistles--and a support contract! Is there an uncanny valle

Slick looking website, novel and relatively intuitive DSL, solid documentation! Parsing the playground demo was a fun scavenger hunt! Too fun... it took me several minutes to find `(coins += income)` at the line break. For me, it's dif

I run ollama off a symlink to an external volume. It just feels neater that way, and can run any GGUF off of HuggingFace. I would like to know what configuration I'm missing out on, though.

For me, this competes with asdf. Otherwise, it would compete with eg nvm, rvm. I haven't managed versions "by hand" for over a decade.

To me, keeping a world state in sync with rapidly changing external state is the most compelling application. Something like dockercraft: https://github.com/docker/dockercraft

By "fat," most people mean subcutaneous adipose tissue, and isn't that the weight we seek most to lose? To what other fat might they refer? Intracranial lipomas?

This is a fun thought experiment, but our working definition of life is something along the lines of heritable metabolizing, which dreaming doesn't so obviously serve.

I can see how .pex or shiv's zippaps live at the Pareto threshold where converting a Python app to an 80% (or less...) executable takes only 20% (or less!) of the effort that would be spent re-writing the app in eg C, C++, Rust, or Gol

Wow, wonderful! Love the rendition of "Jupiter". Really a delightful experience. On mobile, I'd prefer movement on the left, and inventory on the right.
