What alternative do you propose for downloading binaries off the internet, placing them in the "right spot" and doing post-install operations like updating PATH that dont have gotc…

I've found LLMs decrease the friction in enabling more pedantic lints and tooling. It is a quantity problem because enabling all the aggressive warnings in the compiler makes a lot…

I use Rust for command line applications. I find that CLI is a great way to model problems. When I find myself doing something that has graduated beyond a comfortable amount of Pow…

I enjoyed Dave Cridland's comment more than the article. The article is dismissive of AI and other technologies in an unsubstantiated way. New things are happening and it's excitin…

for 50,000 rows I'd much rather just use fzf/nucleo/tv against json files instead of dealing with database schemas. When it comes to dealing with embedding vectors rather than plai…

I found https://docs.rs/bstr/latest/bstr/#file-paths-and-os-strings to be useful

Neat! Have a repo?

Python dependency management sucks ass. Installing pytorch with cuda enabled while dealing with issues from the pytorch index having a linux-only version of a package causing shit …

Neat link, thank you for sharing.

Neat! Must be very satisfying for this to be working now. I wonder if it's feasible to get it working on a multi threaded runtime

Tried it out, very cool! Fun to see it chugging on a bunch of rows. Had a weird issue where it would recompute values endlessly when I used it in a table, but I had another table i…

If incentives to stay outweighed leaving, people would stay.

I was unable to find any section titled "disclaimers" other than one saying "The authors have no financial interest to declare in relation to the content of this article." Is there…

It took much more than 24 words to achieve the final result, and also had to use emojis to convey what I wanted lol Even still I couldn't quite get the result I wanted Image link h…

I've recently been summarizing entire directories into a single chunk of text for use with Gemini, the other day I overshot and ended up pasting 28 million characters into vscode. …

Is this the AWS thing you referenced? https://aws.amazon.com/what-is/automated-reasoning/

very neat but already hitting cases where it doesn't play nice with pwsh scripts, even using the shebang. Back to using a dir full of .ps1 files I guess lol

Swift does apparently, here's an example from ChatGPT enum Animal { case dog(name: String) case cat(name: String) case bird func sound() { switch self { case .dog(let name): print(…

Reading the history of the Grant Matcher puzzle has given names to some concepts that I have brushed against but haven't deeply explored. https://capnproto.org/rpc.html led me to h…

I mean, with a nonzero temperature, the randomness will eventually produce every combination of tokens in the corpus, so with a sufficiently large "all the time you want" you can p…

Would probably try https://github.com/pola-rs/polars and go from there lol

The expansion-contraction of information as it passes between systems is interesting. Json takes more space than a binary protocol, but it is a more human friendly representation. …
