I love this quote from Mindstorms: "You can't think seriously about thinking without thinking about thinking about something."

First version of Torch was in LISP. Python is where people are, and in turn a data for LLMs. Optimal ML lang is half-way from LISP to APL.

Yes, we should store text in string tensors.

I thought the name was intentional. :)

That part about passthrough strongly reminded me of Turing’s Unorganized Machines (randomly wired NAND-gate networks): https://weightagnostic.github.io/papers/turing1948.pdf (worth a read from page 9)

I wish I was thought math with APL.

Time is indeed a flat circle.

APL desperately needs its renaissance. Original vision was hand-written, consistent, and executable math notation. This was never accomplished. If you are into this, read ahead: https://mlajtos.mu/posts/new-kind-of-pape

What was your motivation to do this?

No, GPUs are not needed for efficient inference. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.04732

Extremely valid counter points, thank you. We already interact with false reality through our "old school" computers – internet is full of bots arguing with each other and with us. But my proposition doesn't have to distort t

I know about Scamper, but it is dead. I've been thinking about SmallTalk web browser 4 years ago, more in-depth here: https://www.reddit.com/r/smalltalk/comments/jnigzb/native_we... Since then, a lo

I have never understood why nobody wrote a web browser on top of SmallTalk.

I propose a different lens to look at this problem. A neural net can be defined with less than 100LoC. The knowledge is in the weights. What if we went from source code of the web (HTML, CSS, JS, WASM) directly to generated interactive simu

Without looking into the source – GoldenLayout, right? :)

Problem was that iPadOS 18.0 did not support alive graphs.

by mlajtos 2y ago
You are right, graphs are alive since 18.1. I fixed the article. Thank you.

You are right, graphs are alive in 18.1. I fixed the article. Thank you.

You can try out MyScript Calculator, which is doing exactly that – https://www.myscript.com/calculator I prefer to keep my handwriting over the printed symbols. This might sound crazy, but when I see my handwriting transfor

> But the bad feedback criticism is spot on, though the better solution is to replace symbols in-place, why would you prefer your "awful handwriting" to beautiful math symbols with excellent legibility? You mean it should repla

I want to see more threads like this one – people using Math Notes for all kinds of needs. :)

Yes, the first version is already usable for everyday simple stuff. In the future, it will definitely gain more features. But you are wrong in one thing – it will become much-much more than graphing calculator.

by mlajtos 2y ago
You are not wrong. In 2021, I did bootstrap everything on my own – dataset, segmentation algorithm, neural net, UI, math engine, etc. And in the end, it worked properly only for me. But that was my aim – own complete stack to be able to try

It is true that in the WWDC24 keynote, Jenny Chen demoed a graph that could be changed by dragging a slider of one of the variables [0], but as you can see in demo in the article, graphs are dead – they do not respond to changing variables.

Yes, math engine works differently when you are in Notes and Math Notes. There is a setting ("Insert results" vs. "Suggest results") that controls this behavior.
