Achievement aside, the framing of this and the previous Claude achievement with the Jacobian conjecture don't sit right with me. They make it sound as though there is just some tru…

Amusingly, I made the same thing late last year, though just on an ordinary computer, allowing you to draw in the browser. I used pageflip [0] with styling akin to Riddle's actual …

I think attributing it to luck is a bit uncharitable. They described getting in on talent over credential. I also don't hold a degree. I've worked with a handful of Ivy League inte…

it certainly has the tells... I could be charitable and say maybe since it's a bilingual blog it was generated as a type of translation from the original source, but that post itse…

I feel it would be remiss of me not to mention the humble TempleOS support for mixing code and sprites. I can't say I've ever used the system myself, but its DolDoc format [0] offe…

I also had a strong reaction to the title from their research blog; too anthropomorphic. Model, agent, or system don't have the same personification.

This was posted on hackaday[0] last week with a link to a youtube video. In the video, the author of the project goes into depth about some of the challenges they encountered and c…

The approach I've been trying to use at work is making heavy use of AI for the generation of experimental prototypes, but with little intention of keeping all that code verbatim. I…

Don't you think that's backwards from how utility usually works? Most effective solutions come from attempting to solve a known problem, not by searching for problems to apply an a…

fwiw, the opposite view was recently taken for node js. GH hides most of the conversation by default due to size, but the gist is that a new VFS feature is being proposed for node …

don't think they understood the reference

this is interesting because of how much it differs from my own hopes. I don't really have any personal need or want for the Linux desktop marketshare to increase. I like computers …

my employer has told me that it's an expectation for me and that if I don't use it i'll be replaced

I don't think the evidence is on your side for the outcomes. Kids cannot be assured to make the best choices in their own interest for every scenario. I was on meds for ADHD from a…

I've played Senet regularly for over 15 years. I was working over the holidays on a GNOME Senet game which I hope to put out there soon. I think it strikes a fun balance between ch…

I think many people who grew up before cell phones remember phone numbers from the past. I just thought about it and can list the phone numbers of 3 houses that were on my childhoo…

Classical Chinese had a much larger phonemic inventory than modern Mandarin, and notably no tones. Below are a collection of Classical Chinese reconstructions in IPA that are all p…

Incidentally, the largest group of Chinese characters are phono-semantic e.g. encode both meaning and pronunciation. Over half of all Chinese characters are in that bucket. That ac…

https://irregex.dev My personal blog that until recently was mostly reviews on lox bagels. I yanked out the bagel reviews for now to focus on programming topics, but need to write …

I sometimes have this argument with my Product Owner, despite believing we both want what we individually believe is best for our users. I've tried to suggest that the ideal interf…

it's interesting how differently people perceive it. Motherfucker is something I'd have called a parent in a card game if they bested me, or an exclamation said aloud from dropping…

granted it's not up to courtroom standards, this post linked by another commenter in the chain does paint the picture pretty well of an internal struggle between Search and Ads ins…

I don't think searching for answers to simple questions was a problem until Google nerfed their own search engine.

Since you mention the viola da gamba, I'll mention that in the US, the Viola da Gamba Society of America[0] is keeping the tradition alive. I'm a rusty cellist and learned of the v…
