Double precision cell chips were reserved for military, I think (or maybe also blade processors). So doing any serious physics on them was dead in the water - same with macs tbh

doing Typescript type fixes with this model across 50 files cost me $54 this afternoon.

Not trying to be harsh, but that sounds like a skill issue. You have the language server to lean on; easy feedback loop; sub agent per type.

A fascinating insight into the architecture of modern cpus from an entrepreneurial angle. Bravo!

I wonder if we could gamify and democratise it somehow, like fold-at-home and wikipedia...

I've been training a teeny specialised model to run in a browser on a phone to detect harmonium notes played in a song (harmonium turns out is a pita, another story for another day), getting good labelled data is _all_ of the hard work.

That being said, maybe for cheap inference, using a big model to train something ultra-suited for the task at hand might be how we could handle local inference; thinking language specific models.

Before customisations

The price of convenience.

But you forgot about Vickers

Because of AI or because hackers are hyper targeting infra clusters?

I’ve been wondering about potential regression in coding models.

The initial models were corrected by programmers which gave a very high quality feedback signal. Whereas with vibe coding on the rise, you’ll lose that signal.

@grok is this true?

Vercel auto creates deployments on pushes to branches. That was a super useful feature in beta testing web stuff.

didn't know datomic was free of licensing fees - I didn't use it back in the day because the cost was prohibitive... interesting

I vibed up a chrome extension that sets a timer, hides shorts, redirects home to subscriptions, and hides comments and recommendations.

It’s all toggleable so I don’t disable the extension when I do want some neuronal junk food. But just the micro friction being added back in is such a huge help to becoming more aware when using it.

I think it was $1000 too expensive to take off. It’s also too heavy, they should drop the front screen and ruthlessly save weight.

Chicken and egg problem, if no-one buys it, no-one will develop any killer apps.

Whether it’s pleasant to have any screens that close to your eyes - or ever will be - is maybe the bigger question for VR.

Guess you’ve sorted it but it might be in the session memory in your root folder. I’ve recovered some things this way.

I think that metal isn’t double precision; so that limits some serious physics simming; but if you’re doing that I guess you just rent a gpu somewhere.

I would definitely be into this if adding an egpu was first class supported.

likely in a skill file

compounding recursion is leading to emergent behaviour

Branching conversations are great for a whole bunch of reasons. I posted a demo of a prototype: https://x.com/ajdegol/status/1788689011302682657

And Jake Collins just announced he’s open sourcing an obsidian plugin which has a ton of features: https://x.com/JacobColling/status/1795462258258002255

Wasn't the answer 42?

Also, first question to the new model: "So... any way we could do this with fewer parameters?"

Occasionally you meet people who shock you with how talented they are. I watched a couple of his presentations and he immediately reminded me of some of those people I’ve met before.

looks like the loading is the 45mb download it needs to do.

That’s cause we’re using python and not Julia https://neuralpde.sciml.ai/stable/

And for non linear forcing of plasmas… but it’s been many years since my phd

Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

Perhaps have chatgpt search through drafted laws to identify inconsistencies, curtails to liberty, and evidence of self-interest…

you should probably make it illegal to be unhealthy in any way...

that's a good tip, thank you

Quite the opposite. There have been moments, when the mission is right, and you are aligned with purpose. You see it in glimpses outside of "jobs" (note I said "work" not jobs).

Why can’t I view GitHub on mobile without having to sign in to the app. I don’t want to sign in to the app; I don’t remember my password; I can’t be bothered to authenticate. Bad UX.

Work doesn’t have to tax the sprit so greatly; there is a way to work that gives you energy.
