I like the MATLAB REPL a lot with regards to this issue. If you make a typo in a function or variable name, the REPL fixes it automatically and you press enter to send the corrected command. From the story submitted here about Medley Interl

Just yesterday I flashed a USB drive with Puppy Linux and modified it to start Emacs on boot so that I would have my editor wherever I go. Looking forward to trying this distro!

I think what you are suggesting is similar to the "dead-beat controller" in discrete-time control literature. While a controller designed with this method can get the position error measured at the sampling times to zero very quic

Rodney Brooks has also expressed similar ideas, criticizing the computational metaphor in studies of the brain. However, I find his writings on this topic to be a bit vague. https://www.nature.com/articles/482462a

There are some robotics researchers trying to frame robotics tasks as sequences of action and sensor tokens, giving the model all the data collected by the robot and the actions taken by the robot, so that the model can learn to predict the

A similar service: https://www.concertcreator.ai/ They claim to be able to generate fingerings and animations from raw audio. The video demos give an idea of the output, but they seem to be shutting down.

You can also try importing your CAD model into Blender, assigning some materials to the different objects and getting renders there, though tuning the render may take more time than tuning a prompt.

It's as you think it is, the main benefit is that it's like a notebook that you can zoom in/out of as you wish. Some of my more visually-inclined friends use a similar program called Miro to keep track of their projects. At t
