Wait, you are telling me people vibe created apps before LLMs? /s This is beautiful. I loved Hypercard when I was a kid. If they added networking to it, it would have been superior to web browsers! Please people, have some joy and stop

Thanks, that's some great research, I updated the post! As you pointed out, how objects handled message passing is isomorphic with Simula's discrete events. However the real story about messages is late-binding, which is the core

I wrote to Alan Kay over 8 years ago about my fears of global warming and how tech seems to dismiss it as a concern on the whole. A little known fact about Alan Kay is 17 years ago he was part of a group of "systems people" who pu

We live in the USA. I had a friend tell me they won't use Chinese models because models like K3 only have moonshot as the provider which is in China. They were afraid of surveillance. My rebuttal was that the Chinese can't send po

I have built something similar like this for my fund 7 years ago. We were doing parametric optimization on large computational graphs. I have never programmed Ocaml but my understanding is introspection is kind of a weak spot for the langua

I can second this. I was using Fable for some research and fable said it wasn't going to do it and downgraded to opus. Switched to K3 and continued my work. And it worked really well for what I was doing. You can easily switch claude c

This is beautiful. I went there 20 years ago and my mind was blown then how big it was but I really had no idea!

The point of a democracy is the people regulate it. It seems we are so far from a democracy and people feel so little agency, that we forget this. Yes, this should be done by the government. Yes the people MUST make sure the government is d

The guy's vision is a world where children don't get the medicine they need and fascism rules (he gave a nazi salute, unironically). DOGE has killed people. Has killed children.

Quick question, what is your mental model of the climate?

You are an engineer or programmer? Why are you working in this industry if you can't take the time to learn about how this system works. We are supposed to be systems thinkers with a scientific mindset. How can you make a statement lik

I think it would have been because it was a technically impressive OS with a beautiful UI created by at-the-time biggest smartphone maker in the world. iOS was first but that doesn't show it would win. Android now has marketshare and A

I was working for a Nokia subsidiary called HERE maps at the time this was happening. All I can say is MeeGo was a great OS and would have competed really well with iOS. They released one phone with it called the N9 in some smaller countrie

Question to you, if they looked further back, do you think the variability would increase or decrease. Do you also believe the mean temperature would be lower or higher? Just want to understand your mental model of the climate.

If hoarding is spoiling. You know what would be better than using fable and gpt 5.6, being able to run that level of model on your own hardware.

Someone like Trump probably couldn't even be a CCP party member. I've heard it's a relatively meritocratic organization, at least compared to pur political system. Though maybe someone from China can correct me.

If they can help figure out how to make turning office space into apartments attractive that will solve the vacancy problem and help keep housing costs at bay.

Yeah, when I hear about how the tax changes are going to result in a huge exodus of millionaires it's not backed by data. The data shows millionaires actually move LESS than the general population. Places that instituted high taxes did

This is so cool and I wonder how effective it would be using this technique when using LLMs to generate code. Have the llm generate code and a TLA+ model. Use the TLA+ model as the test bed of the code (instead of writing tests in the origi

I have built a radically different system in general called Abject ( https://abject.world ). I have been thinking about how agents are the wrong abstraction and what an operating system can look like now that we have LLMs. It&#x27

This is great in concept but what prevents me from using it is TDD. I don't want to waste tokens on producing code that doesn't ship to the end user. Design by Contract is a far superior approach. If you've never heard of Des
