Those are some pointless tests. E.g. test_activation_stats_functions [1] that just checks that the returned value is a float, and that it can take random numbers as input. test_get_state_dict_custom_unwrap [2] is probably supposed to check

Now that we're moving towards context-specific compression algorithms, can we please use WASM as the file header for these media files, instead of inventing something new. :)

Thanks! Bookmarked. This could be a really useful resource when testing for e.g. thundering herd issues in data structures, while not being in control of the hash function.

Hmm. The state of California would probably argue that both the potatoes and the rosin has turned into cancer-generating zombie paste, at temperatures where using rosin for cooking makes sense.

The same question scales outwards. Are there forces taking over from gravity at galactic scale? Like, perhaps the galaxy filaments and voids come about due to something we can't even comprehend. It seems unlikely that humans just happe

I was walking through the narrow tourist traps that are the Venetian streets the other week. Lots of stores with shiny pins, bracelets, caps, hats and T-shirts. I realized then why I don't like stores: they're too cluttered. Doesn

Plus the 2^-l(m) correction term. Feels like multiplication shouldn't be needed for convergence, just monotonicity? I wonder how well it would perform if the model was actually trained the same way.

I used VitePress for a site, but gave up because the themeing is limiting. IIRC, it bugged me that Vue components weren't full-class citizens in pages: you have to define the components in a theme. So I switched to Nuxt (the common Vue
