The CEO of this startup was also the CEO of Cruise during the scandal in which Cruise hit a pedestrian, lied and heavily misrepresented evidence to CA investigators. Ethically jarr…

I initially found this odd too. However, I think the catastrophic failure probability is the same as the prior system, and presumably this new design offers improvements elsewhere.…

I should have mentioned that the government foots the legal bill! That is, you don't need to hire your own costly lawyer. The case will eventually be USA vs. (your old company), an…

I'm an American who was retaliated against in the past for collective bargaining efforts. Luckily, that's illegal here as codified by the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (it p…

I know it and do like it! Even for those that follow Diataxis, in my experience the "Explanation" sections are often lacking, especially compared to the "How-To" or "Tutorial" ones…

I am a huge fan of the "Explanations" page of their docs: "These explanation pages are oriented towards deepening your understanding of Hypothesis, including its design philosophy.…

I would have liked more insight into the control group (so called "matched control") hospitals. Typically, PE firms only step in when companies (in this case, hospitals) are strugg…

Mhm. You need another thread to accomplish async file reads, which is basically what aiofiles does. This isn't really to the fault of asyncio. The necessary OS primitive isn't avai…

Mmm fair point! Though, coroutines aren't really asynchronous objects in that usage, right? Since `await coroutine` would run that coroutine synchronously.

Ah, I'm so glad to hear it. And, thank you for the nit/feedback! I generally use python3.12 for my work which doesn't error out on that line. However, python3.11 and below will rai…

I've used Python's asyncio a couple times now, but never really felt confident in my mental model of how it fundamentally works and therefore how I can best leverage it. The offici…

A high level overview of the ideas and objects that power Python's asyncio. And, some simple, illustrative examples.

Surprisingly, it appears TechCrunch's analysis regarding price ratios and trip distance is a bit off! From the article: "This was true of the Uber and Lyft rides, too. But Obi foun…

Thanks for the suggestion. I've added a link to llamafile in the repo's README. Though, my focus was on exploring the model itself.

There are other popular ways to invoke these models, such as Ollama and Hugging-Face's general API package: transformers, but those hide the interesting details behind an API. Peel…

Peel back the layers of the onion and other gluey-mess to gain insight into these models.
