Substitute technology for religion and he's probably one of the least authorized persons to question this.

Then it takes 100 billion people and their knowledge and experience plus 20 years to generate an intelligent person.

The $10/month plan offers a quite limited number of tokens for advanced models. And if you are not careful and set the model to Auto it will quickly deplete them.

Ahhh you stole my idea lol

There are some time traveling products that might help you fix that.

Also the music, it has an impressive original soundtrack, I love how they play with opening variations.

Plus ad hoc markdown extensions, Lua plugins, ... For me it's Typst.

but C++ hasn’t replaced C, Rust hasn’t replaced C++, Typst is unlikely to replace LaTeX.

Weird conclusion, because LaTeX has mostly replaced TeX.

There is a nice symmetry here:

C -> C++ -> Rust ~ Typst <- LaTeX <- TeX

I would say that the TeX language was designed for the final user to add the "last mile", not for piling layers of macrosubstitution on top of something akin to lambda calculus. As amazing a feat of engineering LaTeX is, it has abused the TeX language beyond its natural limits. The price paid in complexity for abstraction was high. But the TeX language itself is a tiny elegant language.

Nice in theory, in practice you have LaTeX tools with synctex, command, environment and references autocompletion, live math preview, proper syntax highlighting, jump to error line, etc. Nothing like that is available for pandoc markdown AFAIK, except perhaps for Quarto, which may have its uses but is too slow for small/medium sized documents and its tooling is not that capable anyway. Besides, it adds yet another complex layer on top of an already way too layered stack.

Probably not as developed as microtype, but they have overhang, kerning and ligatures: https://typst.app/docs/reference/text/text

A legitimate concern given that Typst is still maturing. But I have at least one thing to say in its favour: you can lock the version of packages that you import. The only reason LaTeX documents full of \usepackages are reproducible ten years later is because packages are in maintenance mode, not because of well-thought-out future-proof design.

The will to assign real numbers to degrees of belief is the controversial assumption. Converted bayesians tend to gloss over this fact. Many, as in a sibling comment, state that MLE is bayesian statistics with a uniform prior, but this isn't true of most if not all frequentist inference, based on frequentist NHT and CI, not MAP. Modeling uncertainty with uniform priors (or even more sophisticated non-informative priors a la Jaynes) is a recipe for paradoxes and there is no alternative practical proposal that I know of. I have no issue with bayesian modeling in a ML context of model selection and validation based on resampling methods, but IMO it's not up to the foundational claims its proponents often do.

I apologize for having been using this word as a label to group my bookmarks of books, articles, music, videos and movies for years.

I would say that Messi is gloriously messy.

It indeed tastes horribly to me too, but I just can't help drinking it around five times a day.

I have been drinking too much mate for such a long time that I can only relate it to withdrawal symptoms at this point :)

Creative how? Can you expand on that?

just give the thing decades of emails and giant PDF folders and make sense of it.

just?

I do the same, but also manually export takeouts every month or so with the most important stuff. And every once in a while I create a named revision for my most important docs (which gets exported as part of the takeout).

You sound as if your premise were that all there is to do is reproduce.

But why would you buy them if they were free? Steve Jobs would have just taken the entire lot.

The title is clickbaity, as far as I can see you still can disable chat and meet in order to get rid of the left bar, which is pretty close to the old design, it makes sense that they don't want to maintain both versions and it doesn't seem like a plot to ram chat down your throat.

I'm still trying to make up my mind about all this, but it's likely that the fact that many servers are running subject to the same set of rules may increase competition since servers are highly substitutable, so a paid server business model may actually be more customer oriented because of the "Mastodon market" pressure it faces, isn't it?

Nobody really knows, but we can safely say that a distributed ledger has to be part of the solution.

And when you're God, they cannot utter your name.

He's basically a modern day king

In what way? I mean, besides him being very powerful. Other than that, his behavior here seems perfectly capitalistic to me.

Seems to me that more is at stake here for lisp developers.

But the key here is "if YOU could". To the extent that AI lowered the minimum requirements to build Google Docs, labour supply would increase and you would be facing a lot of competition, becoming more and more replaceable by people willing to earn as much as you -2c. Then it becomes "if WE could". Market value is not productivity.

If AI enables you to build a full-fledged Google Docs clone in one day, your value in the labor market will go up by a lot, certainly not down

If AI enabled everyone and their dog to build Google Docs clones in one day, you can be sure that your market value won't go up but plummet, so keep the trick to yourself.
