You are right. > The current hardware includes 16 microLEDs and 16 photodetectors, supporting a 16-variable state vector…

Have they heard about staging roll-outs and A/B testing or Multi-Armed Bandit testing?

I was driving from outside of Boston. Parking near subway was atrocious as well.

I paid over $50 USD for parking a bit over two hours in Cambridge Massachusetts when visiting MIT. Parking in the Boston area is atrocious.

I’m just visiting Toronto now. The Path is amazing. This is one of the entrances across from the Meridian Hall. https://imgur.com/a/Y4S40JC

Is there a way to use Google Map to navigate the Path from one place to another?

Nope. If they didn't actively work against us, we would thank the lucky stars.

From the little I know of, language based provers like Lean allow mathematicians to specify the steps of a proof in a precise language format that can be “run” by a machine assisted prover to prove its validity. It automates the verificatio

Mad respect. This is an incredible project to pull together all these technologies. The crown jewel of a search engine is its ranking algorithm. I'm not sure how LLM is being used in this regard in here. One effective old technique for

A language level or std library level poly-fill for the missing SIMD operations for the platforms would be great.

Excellent write up. I really appreciate the clear and detailed explanation of the algorithm. The nice thing about Zig’s SIMD operation is the register size support is transparent. You can just declare a 64-byte vector as the Block, and Zig

Zig is great. I have fun writing in it. But there’re a few things bug me. - Difficult to return a value from a block. Rust treats the value of the last expression of a block as the return value of the block. Have to jump through hoops in Zi

Wow. This is very impressive. It would be trippy if IE can run https://win32.run again.

These are excellent tips. I especially like the debugger integration in build.zig. I used to grep the cache directory to find the exe. The integration avoids all the extra steps.

That’s why founding engineers are such a raw deal. They take just as much risk as the founders but much less payout. Also on the hook to do most of the work.

When business approach me asking for automating a business process, I usually ask them to do the process in manual steps and create check lists for it. The check lists force them to think it through and are the agreed upon steps to perform

Checklist is for people who have a fair amount of experience doing the task. It's just a reminder to perform the steps. An experienced chef reading "pre-heat the pan on low-medium.." would know what those terms mean.

Wow. This is so good. I would never imagine using PID control for animation motion. Saving this.

Thanks for bringing new perspective into the discussion. Your Rust code is a good example. I did take Rust for inspiration. The Zig version ‘Interface1.implBy(Impl2)’ is a rough equivalent to ‘impl Interface1 for Impl2’. It did it within th

The pipeline for LLM to MCP and to the app looks like, LLM -> chat app -> MCP client -> MCP server -> specific app (Blender) The chat app doesn’t know how to talk to Blender. It knows about MCP and links in a client. Ble

I don’t find the lack of built-in interface in Zig to be a big problem. Yes. It has some boilerplates to roll in by hand, but all of the work are confined in the interface and only required to be done once. The benefits of the language outw

You get back an interface object at the end anyway. Why force the implementation to produce it? And if you have a type implementing 5 different interfaces, like one for Comparable, one for Iteratible, etc., do you want to stick 5 interface
