If you've been working on the issue for 6 months you should understand it well enough to answer in your own words.

Another anecdote: I am a big nvim user and set everything up three years ago and basically haven't touched it since. At this point I'm a bit afraid I won't be able to fix it if som…

There's a good People Make Games video about this from a few days ago https://youtu.be/Is8N7B9b0GQ

I made a nice little CLI tool for testing the subjunctive in Italian. Claude code spun off a bunch of Claude API calls to generate example sentences with fill-in-the-blank spots fo…

Nice article! The generated images make me so nostalgic for the early days of AI image generation. DeepDream and others had such uncanny, interesting generations.

Really interesting article! I knew about the phase polyphenism but the forced cannibalistic march theory was new to me.

This paper is hilarious

I loved this article, would recommend y'all read it instead of skimming to the end to find the bread

Thank you, I'll give them a read.

I didn't know that! Do you have any references that go into more depth here? I'd be curious how the architect and train it.

I'd recommend The Light Brigade by Kameron Hurley. It's sort of a response to Starship Troopers

While I don't think you're wrong about the orientalist elements in Western cyberpunk, consider that Japan also produced two of the seminal and genre-defining works of cyberpunk (Ak…

Ursula K Leguin, 100%. The Dispossessed is about an anarchist society. Might also check out Kim Stanley Robinson and Kameron Hurley.

Only true if the dust grain is stopped by the craft. For a thin lightsail the grain will probably pass right through without depositing much energy

Also, worth noting that these temperatures are not that high as far as plasmas go. This is 3-5 eV, which is firmly in the "low temperature" regime (like a fluorescent bulb).

Really nice article! This clarified a lot to me about how positional embeddings work and how other useful context might be embedded in other models.
