Quoting the famous Science paper More Is Different [1]:
Knowing the laws of physics doesn't tell you how a brain, economy, or society works - because at every level of scale, genuinely new phenomena emerge that require their own science.

I cringe every time I see Claude trying to co-author a commit. The git history is expected to track accountability and ownership, not your Bill of Tools. Should I also co-author my PRs with my linter, intellisense and IDE?
That's very nice and I ended up with the same font I tend to use (Source Code Pro) vs the font I used before (Noto Sans Mono). Some features I'd love to see:
- An ELO-based version with many more variables, so that I can open the site from time to time and find more nice fonts
- Some global stats
- Not losing the leaderboard after reloading
- Spline Sans Mono
Maybe this is a bit US-centric, direct negative feedback is very common in many cultures, e.g. Dutch
...at least until we get real Test-Time Training (TTT) that encodes the state into model weights. If vast amounts of human knowledge can be compressed into ~400GB for frontier models, it's easy to imagine the same for our entire context
I also got the recommendation from here, happy to see I'm giving it back!
There is a fantastic book on this topic called "By Design : Why There Are No Locks on the Bathroom Doors in the Hotel Louis XIV" that cover the inception of modern brands. It's a very similar story to what happened to watches. The industrial revolution made quality clothing accesible for everyone, so the cloth appearance no longer was a clear indicative of status, so brands started placing their emblems on the outside of the fabric inside of the inside. At the time it was seen as gross, obvious and bad taste. Guess we had a century to normalize it.

Another big factor is that many areas of the US feature horizontal architecture instead of vertical ones (i.e. Los Angeles vs NY). A bus stop in those areas cover orders of magnitude less people given the same radius
Plus a long queue of yet-undiscovered architectural improvements
A cheap one from Aliexpress with only forward/backward keys
With such a high throughput because of sparsity, I'm particulary interested in distilling it into other architectures. I'd like to try a recurrent transformer when I have the time
Using an ebook and a bluetooh page turner solved it for me
And that Internet will still exist in 100 years
TIL I have a "open Hacker News" hand reflex
Sorry, I meant 10**50; HN formatting removed one asterisk

To add to this, the low-level constraints also make this assumption noisy, no matter how smart the compiler is. On the CPython case, if you do `dis.dis('DAY = 24 * 60 * 60)` you will see that constant folding nicely converts it to `LOAD_CONST 86400`. However, if you try `dis.dis('ATOMS_IN_THE_WORLD = 10*50')` you will get LOAD_CONST 10, LOAD_CONST 50, BINARY_OP **.
It looks AI-assisted, based on these two commits: * https://github.com/neberej/exposedbydefault/commit/503bd6519... * https://github.com/neberej/exposedbydefault/commit/16693ba17...
But to what extent should we care for such a small website? The AI witch hunt won't get us too far, and this new way of producing is only getting started. The loss of control to a non-deterministic black box is worrysome, but at some point non-vibe coded (hard coded? brain coded?) software might become less error-prone that vibe-coded
Same! The current self-hosted runner gets hung every so often
Things like OpenAPI have existed for 15 years now and they also offer standarization.
The value on MCP is not on its features or innovation, but on the rate of adoption it has had. Companies have now an incentive to open, document and standarize their APIs to enable this new distribution channel.
? This has nothing to do with star imports
This is great for building modules. One can now lazy import all interesting names on __init__.py, so that instead of having to remember `from module.some_submodule_that_you_need_to_remember import method` you can just do `from module import name`.
Guess you have NASSO now (Not A Single Sign On)
A good-enough compromise is a dual boot with a tiny Windows partition for the rare cases
As an indie music composer, this kind of unusual tone arrangement is great for creativity, thanks! I noticed that the same triangle will play different chords from time to time, is that on purpose?
That's brilliant. Now I need its compressing counterpart.
The bothering part is the browser factor form. Why not just an extension?
