I'm from a family that believed strongly in what some might call "useful child abuse", but that doesn't imply any actual abuse as it would have been defined even 20 years ago, and it isn't without love. Every one of

You wasted your second ever post here on this? It's not us vs them, my main point was that most people don't need bespoke art as code these days. The ones who do choose the people who can do it. Humble brag? Sure ;)

This is silly. You can't tell a chisel to go make a sculpture for you.

No... again a misunderstanding of the word, and a major one! A soul - and I mean this in the most atheistic, nonreligious sense you can imagine - is what you operationalize every single day when you're faced with hardship or any situ

Sure, but I'm an atheist. I got to being an atheist by growing up in a religious community that I ultimately rejected. But I understand the experience of that which people crave and I understand why they feel sorry for atheists. I&#x

I believe whales have a soul. And dogs have a soul. Perhaps even squirrels and rats have a soul. What's your point, other than that you are misunderstanding the word? It needs no mystical or religious basis. If you have ever played mus

Not really. I'll warrant I've clocked a lot more time on the planet, done a lot more jobs, lived in a lot more countries, studied a lot more philosophies, religions and languages, and learned the hard way through many more relatio

If you don't know what a soul is, and you think it's something people just make up, then you are missing out on the experience of being human and you have a bigger problem than not being able to understand what art is.

I agree about the cost-benefit of LLMs being negative from a logical perspective, art aside. I'm bothered by the exact quote you pulled from the article, although I didn't mention it, because it's reticent of a certain hypocr

It's amusing (although disheartening to me as someone who builds online games) that wasm is now being treated like a flash plugin by sysadmins. You're not entirely wrong, but it's just funny to me that we took a full ten year

This is a very useful idea. I don't know how many times I've had to prompt Claude "are you stuck?" after watching it go into a spiral, and suddenly it wakes up and says it was just going too far but it already has a solu

I like and believe in this paradigm, because I'm an artist ... I'm a painter and a musician, fiction writer and coder. Each satisfy something different for me intellectually. I can sink my mind fully into whichever I'm absorb

What is the situation if reasoning is "off"? And, it's asking for an API key for alibaba before I can start a chess game. This might get expensive

I'm sorry, I'm hung up on the idea that an LLM could look at a midi file and listen to something and write an improved version with better sustain. Did you feed it other midi files, or was this something it was able to accomplish

Wow. If I understand, your .name example kinda blows my mind. So that would be where the JIT compiler might be pre-optimized to expect a certain length for a supposedly immutable parameter... right? Even if the spec makes everthing mutable.

I don't see how we could have more vulnerability, on a massive scale, than to have two companies which pre-install both the OS and the browser, on their own hardware in the case of Apple, for 95% of the planet. Microsoft was sued by

I appreciate the thorough explanation... you seem to understand the domain... but I still don't get how this would work in practice. My experience with C/C++ is somewhat limited but I imagine V8 does something like reserve a whole

no, the ubiquity of 5G is what allowed you to be brainwashed into not storing your own files and using cloud storage or streaming for everything. It's kind of like water, food or electricity. You probably don't own a generator, do

Soulseek is great and reminiscent of the old BBS days. But it feels a lot more fragile than torrenting. 15 years ago, TPB was still a place you could get hard-to-find music. Now you are lucky to find a single person on soulseek with an albu

The thing is, it's difficult to tell what his opinions actually are when he's so committed to trolling and being crude. Even if you sussed them all out and agreed with them, he wouldn't be someone you'd want to emulate,

I think the point of the essay was that one shouldn't expect one's partner to be a servant, or remain in a relationship where you're treated unfairly... regardless of what societal construct expects that. Social constructs co

Right, but the risk isn't really worth the reward in an economy that could've slotted this kid into a college job as a loan officer or something. I'm sure having large stacks of Benjamins at his disposal probably had somethin

Hehe aww, thanks. Can't tell ya how much I love those kids. They're 4 and 6. The boy is just obsessed with baseball. They live down in LA, I'm in PDX. When they come up here, they get so excited like I'm the best part of

This. When I lived in Argentina, the maximum amount of USD you could pull from an ATM was $200 per day, dispensed as 600 pesos. That was at a government-enforced 3 to 1 USD to Pesos. The price on the open street market was at least 9 pesos

Frankly, the government that America has right now is nowhere near as extreme as AfD. I wouldn't be surprised or sorry if the next President of the US sanctioned goods out of Saxony. But we have both types of populism here. Both of the

Previous reality probably won't return... although you never know. I think a lot of the world would breathe a sigh of relief and get back to normal under a more rational American leadership. Unlike Brexit, we haven't literally bur
