You can export from Lucid to SVG. It also has its own version history. For me it has been working OK.

There are many embedded platforms that do not gcc/llvm based compilers. Also most companies making those platforms are not good at updating their toolchains. Expecting developers to compile their own toolchain, that is unsupported by p

Most important aspect of C is its portability. From small microcontrollers to almost any computing platform. I doubt that any new version of C will see that much adoption. If I want to live on cutting edge I would rather use C++2x or Rust

Here are few reasons that justify its existance. * Different form factor * Not tied to Apple Ecosystem. * Price * You can even use it independently (without phone).

AGI does not need to be based on biological intelligence. it is analogous to human will to fly, and our models were birds, but eventually we came up with something else (airplanes), that are much better at flying than birds (in some regard

I was also blown away at CNC grinding step. Perhaps he did it because heat gun would have impacted other parts of the PCB. With grinding the impact was limited to Nand chip only. He eventually had to use heat to cleanup the residue.

I agree with this sentiment. However maybe in few years AI will get better enough that you wont need to debug it?

QEMU is a great piece of software. I use it regularly to debug various cross compiled kernel images under gdb without requiring actual ARM hardware (buildroot + custom kernel + gdb).

This is awesome. In past I worked on adding support for meta-data queries to faiss DB, by hooking up faiss db with SQlite, but this approach (Sqlite extension) is much more cleaner and better. Not sure about performance though.

MoE (Mixture of Experts) is an effective way to scale transformers. Gemini 1.5 is already doing upto 1 million tokens. I have not seen any large scale mamba model, so not aware of its shortcomings, but I am sure there are tradeoffs. It shou
