- Sharing my friend's startup for sandboxed code execution:
- Yes, thank you. It's 'c' in English but 'g' in my mother tongue
- My non-technical friend installed linux on her 10yo old laptop by herself after a windows update slowed down her device and rendered it unusable. She said she said she read about it somewhere and that the Ubuntu installation was pretty intuitive.
I was both amazed and proud. She's daily driving Linux now
(to be fair, it's just tv shows and web apps like chatgpt or docs, but still, Linux is now a good-enough alternative, at least anegdotally)
- Thank you, Microsoft, for accelerating the advent of The Year of The Linux Desktop
- To quote the blog in question:
> How true this is, is a topic I dare not enter.
- Looking forward to going through the lessons
- Likely Project Oberon
- Why do you talk like an LLM
- You should take a look at https://judge0.com/
- Maybe he just oneshotted it
- Believe it or not, there's Gemini Robotics, which seems to be exactly what you're talking about:

- buildkite
- working on a new interface for llm chats, that allows you to branch the conversation to multiple streams
actually started as a new chat app but eventually I figured it could be used for LLMs
- That sounds like this (in)famous stackowerflow question: https://stackoverflow.com/a/6198257
- Just ask anna if she has it in her archive
- That's not really true. Commercial weather prediction has reached the market, and a drug (sorry, can't find the new s link) that was found by AI-accelerated drug discovery is now in clinical testing
- Let me phrase it a bit differently, then: AI generated cats in Ghibli style are a waste, we should definitely do less of that. I did not hold that opinion before the documentary
Education-style infographics and videos are OK.
- Is it really similar? I was under the impression it's a GNN of a (really dense) polyhedron, not a diffusion model
- Watched it a while ago. Made me seriously think about AI and what we should use it for. I feel like all the entertainment use cases (image and video gen) are a complete waste.
- If I remember correctly, one of the competitive programming experts from the global leaderboard made his own language, specifically tailored to help solve AoC problems:
- Hate to break it to you, but there are already over 8B people on the planet
- Switzerland?
- Ah my domain changed in the meantime, this is the correct URL:
- This is good for sampling from a "static" distribution, which has stable p_i parameters, where you can armotize the alias preprocessing step.
If you have a distribution that changes from time to time, for example LLMs where you have a new discrete distribution for every step (N-dimensional dice roll), other methods are used. Recently I wrote a writeup comparing three methods (spoilers: simple is best):
- > There was a separate building in the area that did research in radio telescopes. This was an outgrowth of research that investigated some odd radio interference with communication, that turned out to be astronomical. I was never in that building.
Wonder if that's the detection of CMBR
- I'm pretty sure you just described a public school
- Is this meant to replace the Bundle Protocol
- I'm in your boat. I picked this career because I enjoy solving problems and thinking and understanding. I'm interested in how things work inside below the layers. To me, it's like the tech has a purpose of its own, and not just to provide value.
Using agents effectively is this whole other skillset including managing requirements, prioritization and, worse yet, I'm rarely left with any knowledge. I don't nearly get the same joy out of "I finished a task with an agent" like I do with "I had a problem, I delved deep to understand it, learned something new and solved it"
Then again, I bet people making furniture out of wood felt the same about industrial furniture factories. And it can be argued that not every use case needs custom tailored furniture...
