Nice! To be clear for my usecase I didn't mean calling the local LLM directly, rather simply being able to point to an OpenAI compatible API would be fine. It seems like wrangling a native model would be a lot of extra complexity, but

I'll jump in before the haterade engine wakes up -- great bit of engineering work here! I can't imagine a better level of abstracting away the unnecessary stuff while still retaining that level of manual control. The only thing I

Obviously scary AI future means we should probably give full regulatory capture to a handful of wealthy individual corporations. You know. For our own safety.

Curious what the story is for slotting Jank into gaming. Seems like a fit for Unreal, but I really love the Component-Based-Architecture of Unity. Would you get it into your Unity project the same was as getting normal C++ into your project

Oh my god this is amazing. We need to fix some of the IO redirect in Scryer and then this will be a perfect replacement for bash scripts <3 You rock!

I asked a physicist friend about this. At 6x mass, it would only be 6x the gravity if it was the same size as Earth. Depending on the density, the gravity could actually be weaker than Earth!

First of all lets be clear: the concepts of "first class" and "callable" are procedural terminology coming from object oriented and functional languages. I am admitting them to the discussion for purposes of comparative

Thanks for the run instructions, unsloth. Deepseek is so new it's been breaking most of my builds.

I think there is some confusion around what is "first class" in Prolog. Any syntactically valid construct in (ISO-conforming) Prolog is "first class", including the symbols that are the names of predicates. The fact that

Datascript is very similar to Datomic, except that it runs in ClojureScript and is an in-memory datastore with no concept of history or point-in-time queries. The schemas are also much looser than Datomic. Otherwise, many syntax and semant

A lot of these comments don't make any sense to me. > Prolog predicates are not first class values. Predicates are trivially called, even as variables, with the `call/N` metapredicate. > Mapping and filtering is awkward In w

Ok just to clarify, Datomic is a Clojure thing. It is free to use but closed source. It is an excellent database that is used, owned, and financed by Nubank, the largest and most rapidly growing bank in Brazil. It is not Datalog syntax

There are multiple ways to accomplish this, but the one that is the most straightforward is to simply make an object mapping of the type you are familiar with via AVL trees[1]. Easy way to get the "this.maze" semantics. You can g

Respectfully have to disagree. Prolog has the best features for abstraction of any language I've used, I suspect it may be near an optimal fixed point for metaprogramming expression[3]. I will say the other side of that wall is breatht

I always enjoy reading positive pieces about Prolog but without touching on the implications of the principles on display, this article may do more harm than good. You would ask reasonable questions like, "for God's sake, why ?&q

If this is true, my understanding of vanilla token vector embeddings is wrong. my understanding was that the vector embedding was the geometric coordinates of the token in the latent space with respect to the prior distribution. So adding a
