    The output can be explicitly constrained to a formal syntax (see outlines.dev). For many cases this is more than enough to solve some hard problems well enough.

    I haven’t heard a definition of “reasoning” or “thinking” that proves humans aren’t doing exactly that same probabilistic regurgitation. I don’t think it’s possible to prove; feels…

    It’s called painting with too wide a brush. A lot of us are simply interested in promoting and continuing to evolve and understand that well-reasoned ideology. We feel its applicat…

    But it seems to be doing it imperatively. I’d expect something like ‘nginxConf = pkgs.file “nginx.conf”, “contents”’ instead of ‘nginxConf = pkgs.writeText “nginx.conf”, “contents”…

    These are not the same things. You are not necessarily capable of protecting yourself from their use by another party. If these magnets are used incorrectly, why should the respons…

    Pick a project you’re passionate about and find a technology you’re curious to learn. Then figure out how to make it happen. You can chart your own course (and from what I’ve seen …

    Blame the fools who believe the misinformation (or better yet, take responsibility for publishing truth in a more compelling form). It takes two to tango, and one of these tango da…

    Did you consider the impact on those responsible for your long term care?

    When everyone’s settled on maximizing the diversity of their investments, I wonder if the strategy loses viability as an effective hedge.

    Do we have evidence it was carved? It’s possible to “shrink” a stamp by pressing onto wet clay, firing, and then repeating the process multiple times (clay will reduce after firing…

    Communicating technical concepts to lay audiences is difficult, and a universal problem these days. Very rare and impossible are nearly equivalent wrt policies that broadly and sig…

    I'd also like to know where I can read further on discussions on this. My understanding is that it's the same for chickenpox - that lack of frequent natural exposure now requires a…

    I don’t have a ball in this match other than the one that wants to continue to raise my daughter without civil unrest. How are you so certain of the benefit of this action?

    Agreed, thanks for following up, these are likely near impossible to solve at a local level. I don’t have good solutions, and I certainly don’t envy the folks we elected who really…

    Lack of alignment of Congress is lack of alignment of their constituents. It’s good that it stalls in that condition, IMO. I’d expect unaligned moves in Congress to cause social st…
