I didn't make any claims about that, just that they can't be wrong. And by that, I didn't mean you can't choose the wrong types, just that once you've chosen types that compile they can't be incompatible or ot

I mean documentation can be wrong whereas types can't, so it seems like it's strictly a worse tool if your goal is to understand what's actually going on and not what someone said was going on at some point in the past.

Isn't mathematics the only thing that it's possible to formalize? Doesn't the process of formalizing something else turn it into mathematics?

I am assuming you mean it's a bigger concern in Lean than other languages because of what people are attempting to do with it (formalize all of math)? Because the language itself, somewhat by design and somewhat by nature, seems to be

I'm not an expert but I'd say based on my experience with Lean so far, the answer is yes. eg. I have entered some proofs from the Lean guide and then replaced tactics with `apply?` which searches for tactics to meet the goal, and

You don't see that `p(doom)` in the wild very often as it's a lot more characters than just typing "1".

I think a lot of people encounter this difficulty when they first get into functional programming, but over time it inverts, where you end up building all these small self contained pure functions that are easy to re-use and recombine and i

The work described appears as if it would handle a complex set of multiple tools just fine, but you do train the controller on a specific tool set, so you would presumably need to train (or at least something like "fine tune") a c

> notable because many other common agent definitions have the tools as required, not optional. This feels weird to me. I would think of an agent with no tools as the trivial case of a "null agent" or "empty agent".

You never need WASM (or any other language, bytecode format, etc) to talk to LLMs. But WASM provides things people might like for agents, eg. strict sandboxing by default.

Presumably it means starting multiple copies of Claude Code or whatever other agent powered IDE and having them work on different things at the same time, so while you're waiting for one you can be replying to another, etc. so that mul

I wrote a similar implementation a while back[1]. The major difference is that mine only allows rules of the form "n is divisible by m" whereas the one from the post allows arbitrary predicates over n. Wouldn't be that hard

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're saying but a connection pool seems like almost a canonical example of something that shouldn't be a singleton. You might want connection pools that connect to different databases or to

Learning more faster and learning for the love of it are not mutually exclusive. Also there are different contexts in which I want to learn, and in some of them, speed matters, in some it doesn't. I don't think it makes sense to

I am not affiliated with the program, but I suspect an LLC would count as incorporated, and therefore an LLC with a solo dev (that has raised less than $10m) would qualify.

Sure, but then what you're doing would be irrelevant to this discussion.
