The last few months I've been picking up Spanish language editions of Borges's short stories and poems from used book stores. Two decades ago during school I took two years of Spanish, so reading native Borges would be way beyond

I use a Kobo because its overdrive integration lets me read ebooks checked out from my county library. I'd love to give KOReader a try -- does anyone know if it can be used with library books, via overdrive or another integration? A qu

Sigh classic LLM -- without you, the expert, I can't quickly tell from the code / output how the answer the LLM produced is wrong. I also asked it to solve sudoku by "propagating constraints" and the answer seemed to wor

I was curious where GPT-4 would come up short on the problem and I was surprised -- it seemed to solve it pretty well whether or not using coroutines. (I dropped both solns into a python interpreter and both appeared to solve the problem.)

Ah, one more tweak I was curious about: even with the default chat temperature I haven't seen GPT-4 get the prompt wrong once with this addendum: > Note the rabbit doesn't eat carrots. Carefully considering the restrictions and

True the temperature is throwing it, I just ran it four times and it got it right 3 / 4 -- still better than I'd expected from the initial description of it's shortcomings.

As far as I can tell this error depends on the LLM assuming rabbits (as opposed to pumas) eat carrots -- if you just append "Note: this rabbit doesn't eat carrots" GPT-4 will answer correctly on the first go. > 1, First, t

Common lisp has a smaller community than the currently most popular languages, but I'm consistently impressed by the range of and quality of libraries the community has created (despite all the "beta" disclaimers) [1] Regardi

From a week of usage my outstanding missing piece is yubikey support. Really can't complain tho: it's still early, open-source, and a great product.

Congrats to the Atlas team on the release! Nyxt truly delivers on the Emacs experience in the browser, and the addition of data-profiles to give a Firefox-container-like experience lets me use it as my daily driver. Yup, there are quirks fr

I'll be keeping an eye on this post throughout the day -- if anyone is curious I'm happy to answer questions about HealthTensor. (somewhat obvious disclaimer: I work there)

Late to response, but I'm a big fan of reaper also -- its fantastic comping tools in particular keep me coming back.

I ported lisp-koans to elisp https://github.com/jtmoulia/elisp-koans It's still rough and doesn't include @phoe-krk's latest changes (forked 1.5yrs ago), but I found it super useful for learning lisp.

Awesome to see such a comprehensive update to the lisp koans. much thanks! Like you said, elisp-koans was forked from lisp-koans awhile back. Bringing over the additional coverage you added will be a great improvement! I love the addition o

I love that the soul of this post is about music production on Guix using FOSS -- over the years I've used most of the tools the author listed. That being said, I have been super impressed with the non-free DAW Bitwig [1]. It was built

No to both. Despite using Vim-like modal bindings it is implemented in Elisp and uses Emacs packages.

Thank you for this! I'll be trying it out in about a month, and I'll let you know hos it goes.

In that case, would the caller be responsible for ramping up the number of users?

Thanks for the explanation! Not the most flexible solution, but if you want the load spec to be authoritative you could allow it to recursively specify a different load generator rather than a task_runner. Instead of running a task, it woul

I'd love to use this to test my application, but after reading through the docs, I'm not quite sure how to get the setup I'd like: My application is a server which clients login and then issue commands to. As I'm imagini

For a stretch I helped research Alzheimer's effects the olfactory system -- one result of the cascade of Alzheimer's described in the article is that olfactory sensory neurons start mistargeting their downstream glomeruli [1] [2].

Elixir runs on the Erlang VM, and has all of the same attributes of fault tolerance and distributed computing. The point about a lot of quality applications being in Erlang is well taken, though the interop is effortless.

Not product-y, but I've built a PEG interface [1]. Long term goal is to use it for parsing in an IMAP library. [1] https://github.com/jtmoulia/neotomex

Mind expanding? edit: wait, are we talking about no parentheses at all? If so, I'm wrong. I meant lisp-like.

You can add erlang/elixir to the list of paren-free functional languages.

Yup, my post was a bit incomplete: I loved to play with those browsers, but they always left me feeling frustrated. I was hoping that times had changed, but your response seems to say that hasn't happened yet.
