I just added your blog to my RSS reader and noticed that your blog title in the RSS is a bit weird (in case you were unaware): <title>Posts on A blog</title> <link>https://mbuffett.com/posts&#

That's neat, so it looks like ln2(216) =~ 7.7 bits to encode any valid move, and then compresses to even better!

I like to use different email addresses for different services. Please just ask me for an email address to use instead of using the one on github.

The problem with Extrapolations is that it's really a watch a single time series. Despite how good it was, I don't think I could sit through that twice.

Despite the claims of other replies that this is fine, I actually wonder if it is. Let's examine the MIT license and the effect on the software before and after: > Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtainin

Yeah, it's really something that you have to get buy-in for. You could always make a commit that just has the reformatting when you do start editing a file. If it turns out you didn't need to edit that file after all, then you can

Reading through the dataprep stuff, I wonder if doing more RAG during the prep stage might help this sort of task on structured daa. E.g. pre-indexing related parts and using those to build summaries / QA pairs. I took a look at the cu

For helix, I notice that GitHub is listed as a data source, but there's nothing in the docs about this. I'd really love to see what a model trained on my commonly used git repos (which generally are newer than The Stack etc), and

Image is too large, often useless for context and generally wasted space. Too much text per article means generally one screen page per article (consider just showing one line and having an expand button that shows the extra context). compa

Learning unit testing as one of the first things to start with, and then having that always be a part of every future programming class would be something I'd choose.

I used this a while back to simulate a 16+ port MIDI thru device using PIO on a Raspberry Pico[1]. It worked surprisingly well with just a small amount of simulation slowdown. Theoretically it might be possible to replace a $200 Kenton Thru

Perhaps a good metric for how much this should be worth would be to ask whether buying this book for a junior developer with your own money would save you that amount in the long term. Based on the article only, and the amount of times I&#x

This has been how I've usually define it too. I like the addition of the R+D section because I think a good Maintenance oriented team should be doing R+D related to bringing their maintenance costs down the same way a good sales team w
