I don't know. At the point in which you have to reinforce visual context with animations, I feel like you've already failed at the part of UX that actually matters. Like there's already been a cascade of structural failure, a

Lisp really needs extensive structural editing tools IMO, and you really have to change how you think about reading source text and that can take longer than you might think. The best Lisp experience by far and away is LispWorks. That being

What? The context of the conversation was about piracy which is a distinct legal fiction, it's inherently grounded in the law's opinion, so yes necessarily the law cannot be wrong in this context, that's incoherent. An idiosy

Unfortunately, that kind of hyper-atomism isn't really an effective argument if you don't already agree with the premise being presented. To make matters worse, the law is a collection of postulates. It can give itself the predete

I think you're running into difficulty because you're conflating 'sorting' with what we would call a total or linear ordering. Partial orders are non-linear, and allow you to form posets, which are isomorphic with DAGs.

That's a mischaracterization. Latent space is simply a (multidimensionally) sorted collection, it's only a piece of the pie. A massive amount of structure is held in the unembedding layer. Generative AI models are a very specific

Haskell is actually really good for that. Hasktorch[1] is high quality, batteries included, and leverages Haskell's GADTs for some cute stuff like gradual tensor shape checking. There's also just a grain to Haskell that feels real

Definitely, but they represent the opposite problem. The thing about the LASD and LAPD is that they are... extrajudicial. It's not "They catch a gang member and do nothing", but rather "They arrest a gang member with no

No, I didn't mean to imply otherwise. I'm contextualizing for why that framing of the book is eyebrow raising.

The inflection of the copula "can be" is exactly the problem, as is the 'anything computable'. There's a reason Isabelle is used as a proof assistant, and Prolog isn't. The former guarantees sound, mathematical

Generally speaking, the pain of handling hot patching depends highly on the structure of your codebase and the reason for hot patching to begin with. For a structure-of-arrays architecture, or for fixing logic errors at run-time, it's

It's more than just a grammar. But specifically on that note, I'm assuming you know a POSIX Shell language. Spend some time with Forth and ask yourself if these are experientially the same thing. Equifinality is extremely misleadi

I think it's more nuanced than that. There surely are plenty of cases where that is the case, but it's also a natural effect of hyperfinancialization, which many really do believe to be a "net positive" for the stability
