Working on an Emacs-like editor that uses Clojure instead of Emacs Lisp. It has a C kernel and then uses libsci (Small Clojure Interpreter, built with GraalVM, so it has no Java de…

This is a contrarian take: instead of open source models running on private infrastructure being the dominant mode of AI, they instead argue that the returns to scale from cacheing…
