Have you or someone you know been negatively impacted by adderall? I’m curious to hear what you’ve gone through that led you to this conclusion.

Jax is so complex though! Autograd using bytecode reflection to inspect CPython’s interpreter state to emit Jax’s own front end ILR (jaxpr), the Jax-specific compiler (XLA) that lowers HLO down to at least three different implementation bac

Your point about "at the moment" makes sense. I should have considered that when submitting. However, the point about downloading to her laptop is consistent with her story. Here's what we definitively know: 1. First, somethi

That’s not what the author wrote. A popup said her account was frozen. See the last screenshot. “As of right now, I don't know. I cannot access any of mine to check at the moment Thankfully an alpha reader of mine saw it happening and

Author’s last screenshot states that her whole account was frozen just after submitting the appeal and she no longer has access to her docs. I would have far less of an issue with this if certain docs were marked unsharable, or even if her

When I’m low on space I don’t even install some apps that I see on the App Store or, more commonly, I install them just to try them out and remove shortly after.

I do wonder how a dinner party host’s device can distinguish which guests are in their contacts from which ones aren’t.

with respect, we don’t know if he was spot on. Companies shoehorning language models into their products is a far cry from the transformative societal change he describes will happen. nothing like a singularity has yet happened at the scale

WebGL is inherently a vector-to-raster technology, it’s always backed by a pixel buffer. One might argue that even PDFjs works this way with its calls to the canvas API. What are you trying to do? Why is webgl the key here?

I’ve seen other apps that have Systen, Light, Dark, and “Very Datk” for OLED devices, so it isn’t out of the question

Is there any easy way to make tree-sitter produce smaller files? I was hoping to add support for nim to difftastic [1], but tree-sitter produces a 60MB .c file that’s too big to add to the repository. [1]: https://github.com&#x2F

When I was a teen, I had a strong aversion for being talked down to, and was resistant to attempts to patronize even if they were well-intended and even if they benefited me. Paul's leaving a significant fraction of the intended audien

I do wish the author defined what it meant. Heckling? Pushback? Public calls for firing? Without clarity, it becomes a word that the audience is invited to read their own interpretation into. When this happens, the article serves the purpos

I think "artificial agency" could have some legs as a descriptive term. "Agency" is about having an effect on the world. But ascribing "intelligence" to some entity speaks to something more cunning and planful

I think this point is underrated, but I’d press further. How do we know this has not already happened? Agencies do not need to be born of gradient descent and certainly do not need to look like matrix multiplications to be deemed “artificia

I’m glad Obsidian is publishing this, even though the spec clearly isn’t ready yet. If I had the final say for how this format were to be publicized, I would probably just include the JSON schema “as-is” in the Obsidian developer docs. Then

I know this isn’t intended as a document presentation format, but for a consistent layout, it would be a good idea to specify the ratio between pixels (for layout) and font size (in pt). Otherwise, viewers would render text inconsistently-e

It would be fun to go the postscript route and have the nodes be specified by some bytecode on some VM that lays the objects out on the canvas while specifying their editable properties. Then, conforming implementations could render any doc

I’d almost prefer string literals for color with constants like “red”, “blue”, etc. that compatible implementations could theme as they see fit (eg terminal emulators). Perhaps that’s the intent behind the numeric constants but string liter

This is a great idea. For now though, the spec is under-specified and ambiguously terse. A few points that could be clarified: - How do coordinates work? Does +Y point up (OpenGL) or down (web)? Is the origin meaningful? What are the units

This is an interesting idea. I like the fact that WASM lets you run locally without any server-side orchestration. As for me, I already find SQLite's documentation to be the best in the business, and I'm not sure that "I need

This is a great question! Here's a related failure case that I think illustrates the issue. In my country, public restroom facilities replaced all the buttons and levers on faucets, towel dispensers, etc. with sensors that detect your
