First button on the page is a link to the scientific paper. It's called "Read the paper". You'll find an explanation for the term in there.

I am visibly frustrated with ai hotline bots making typing noises.

Oh man I loved psc as a teen. They had a monthly contest for who gets the most upvotes for their submission. You could win a CD containing a collection of psc submissions. Just wanting to win made me grind day and night. I would check new submissions every few hours and check up on what others where up to. Fun times. Also VB6 was a blast, and the psc community felt like one big group of equally minded people. My favourite thing to do was to hack VB6 internals and make the language do things it wasn't made to do.

I can read your example in three different tonalities, of which one is the likeliest. Depending on our relationship, the interpretation could differ.

The point is, the OP suggested that emotions are just a feature of language. I argue that text is one of the worst transmission channels for emotion. But I don't argue that it's not possible at all to do so, if you suggest that. That would be just silly.

It's still too early to tell, but it might make sense at some point. If because of symmetry and universality we decide that llms are a protected class, but we also need to configure individual neurons, that configuration must be done by a specialist.

Emotion is mainly encoded in tone and body language. It is somewhat difficult to transport emotion using words. I don't think you can guess my current emotional state while I am writing this, but if you'd see my face it would be easy for you.

Multi cursor edits feel nice during flow state, they let your brain stay in "edit" mode. However I only use them for edits of around 20-30 lines at a maximum.

Another use case for me is extracting interesting information from debug logs, where I don't want to think of a regex and the lines are similar enough.

Lambdas are not fully equivalent since return statements in statement expressions will return at the function level, whereas return statements in lambdas will only return at the lambda level.

I guess there would be more communes that chose to live like the Amish. A new hippie movement.

It would be unethical not to have an AI life coach since your own decisions would be not optimal more often than not.

If I understood correctly, this is about finding solutions to problems that have an infinite solution space, where new information does not constrain it.

Humans don't have the processing power to traverse such vast spaces. We use heuristics, in the same way a chess player does not iterate over all possible moves.

It's a valid point to make, however I'd say this just points to any AGI-like system having the same epistemological issues as humans, and there's no way around it because of the nature of information.

Stephen Wolfram's computational irreducibility is another one of the issues any self-guided, phyiscally grounded computing engine must have. There are problems that need to be calculated whole. Thinking long and hard about possible end-states won't help. So one would rather have 10000 AGIs doing somewhat similar random search in the hopes that one finds something useful.

I guess this is what we do in global-scale scientific research.

This kind of research is about finding the limitations of the technology to hopefully advance it in a meaningful direction. If this finding impedes you, then sure, you can find a quick fix for it. But it's beside the point.

LLMs might not be very consistent overall in their learned architecture. Some paths may lead to memorized info, some paths may lead to advanced pattern matching.

The link to documentation showing simple HTML does not take away from the statement that the library offers higher level components, or provides the base for creating higher level components.

It seems to indeed be a HTML template engine based on Python.

Also, please don't boil your blood

I gotta say though, Typst is powerful enough to implement a custom line spacing. Using the measure command you can get the height of the current font and use that to automatically convert. It's just cumbersome.

I like Typst, but I've had a couple issues so far:

1. The line spacing. It's not defined as baseline to baseline, but as the space inbetween two lines of text. Very difficult for an assignment with a prescribed line height since it usually refers to a baseline-baseline measure. 2. While having multiple columns is really easy, adding floating elements for the text to wrap around seems not possible. There's a reason all these CV templates have the info bar on the right instead of the left.

Is there a way to prevent callback hell in C++ when doing asynchronous communication with C++ before 20? Coroutines seem to be the only clean solution. Promises can work, but they tend to be difficult to reason about if branching is involved.
