I love it. It turns out my friends site is mogging mine. Can't let this stand, time to vibe. Thank you for prompting me to act.

It's kind of bespoke for me tbh. For a co-pilot inside an app that could answer product questions, I looked at ~2000 or so support emails. I asked one LLM to dig out "How would you…

I've been using Linux on all PC's for a long time. Experience is slowly getting better. There is nothing I haven't been able to get to work, but with tricks or adjustments. I think…

Happy to see this :-) This guy starring my chip-8 implementation was a moment of pride for me. It was buggy but before this guide there wasn't too much material out there that was …

Great! I worked a lot with parquet like 5 years ago. The frustration and tilt working with the tooling was immense. Thank you for building this, it feels like resolving some old kn…

I take away that the combination is the problem. Bleach and ammonia isn't so bad on their own, but mixing the two is not a good idea. MCP would provide crazy attack vectors. Especi…

Woah, I had no idea. Thanks for the article. I feel like some cycle phenomenon has been reached here.. The first protocols of the internet were very naive. Why'd you need to encryp…

Solid points! Shame the author doesn't mention the Swedish secret of snus. That's the best productivity hack I know bar none. Anyone else out there?

What a nostalgia trip! I did my MSc thesis about document vectors of STE. STE has incredibly useful rules for technical communication/documentation; especially if you're a non-nati…

Love the term. People should call it for what it is. Tried to find some answers on Google earlier in the day, and the first result pages were 100% generated slop. Funnily enough, a…

Interesting read. Is there a case for KYC versions of platforms? Maybe platform knows who you are, but you can remain anonymous "outwards"? All forms of automated detection and gen…

I'm Swedish. We have quite a few of these guys. For every "public" one of these, there are many that are absolute monster programmers that don't market themselves at all. I've work…

This is absolutely crazy. And it'll only get better from here. Imagine "VASA-9" or whatever. I thought deepfakes were still quite a bit away but after this I will have to be way mo…

You're right! And Yanis is open about that he is very political (and leftist). The book is written in the form of a letter to his father. We get a lot of backstory about why and ho…

I've actually read this book recently. I thought it was quite interesting, but would be better with less political stuff (most if it is at the end though). My favourite thoughts an…

That's awesome man. I'm also a little bit allergic to Langchain. Any way to help out? How can I find this when it's open source?

What an amazing list! Found so many things I didn't know existed as a private and FOSS alternative.

I just keep thinking back to the genius scene/meme from The Social Network. "Drop the OpenAI. Just Microsoft. It's cleaner."

+1 on The Black Swan. I found all of Taleb's books really interesting, but this one I enjoyed the most.

Good article. I used HDBSCAN in my master's thesis. It works well with high dimensional data. If you're using it for high dimensional stuff I would recommend working with Uniform M…

I don't have a question. I just want to say your blog posts are really good! They are informative, interesting and really funny at the same time. Thanks for writing them :-)
