This is great, and I need it and will use it, but what I need even more is some kind of integration with org mode (or just note taking generally). I found out the hard way that github/copilot deletes conversations after 30 days! So m

Regarding LIGO, if anyone finds the sensitivity of LIGO as shocking as I do, here's a 2002 lecture from Kip Thorne explaining how it's achieved. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGdbI24FvXQ&t=495s This video is

you create an output arrow table and populate it with rows. but w/r/t the original idea, arrow data always comes with a schema and is efficient and compact, so it makes it easier to share data between different programs.

The key point of the article is "your data is trapped inside your program", i.e. data models can't generally be shared between programs. One thing that has improved my life has been using apache arrow as a way to decrease th

I liked all the parts that were not about eshell. Wdired and its cousin wgrep are killer. I didn't see much value in the eshell examples provided.

As a longtime emacs user, this perfectly summarizes what is most awful about it! It makes me cringe when people wag their fingers to correct the "misperception" that emacs is merely a great text editor and IDE, but rather a progra

I mean why not cpp? With AI support it’s much easier to write a safe cpp17 program.

> AI has no concept of memory locality. No intuition for cache misses. Not true at all but you have to ask it.

I’m reading that an H-maser emits 1.4GHz. Maybe you mean something besides it’s emission frequency?

By definition, reason can only take you so far in politics, as it’s the arena in which decisions must be made without complete information. No matter how well reasoned your arguments, no matter how well informed you are, you’re still going

A sample size of 263 galaxies isn’t enough to draw any conclusion.

Hm. In the agile world, non-coders don't typically sign up for stories. So maybe this person shouldn't have been expected to land stories, or possibly there wasn't room in the budget for someone to be just a peer coder. I per

I’m not a WP user, and I don’t want to ruffle feathers, but I can read and I think WP .com might not be getting the credit it deserves for contributing 4000+ hrs/year to WP development. Some of the contributors to WP are the very best

Respectfully, this seems upside down to me. Tools incorporating LLMs will be the knowledge repository for s/w projects of the future, and will capture and then summarize ideas, create mocks and finally render code (on command with guid

Yes, this what i’m saying; the development process will be about writing and talking into a new tool, and then with that recorded information generating summaries, mocks prototypes and code. Definitely people would be involved. What I’m poi

This is really why AI is going to hit s/w development so hard. It's not merely going to make code easier to write, it's going to be a massive knowledge repository that takes a team from initial conception, through product des
