I've had similar thoughts lately while using agents for coding. It seems like if I give the agents external tools and sources of truth they perform really well. In my case it was a…

This is pretty much my approach. I started with some spec files for a project I'm working on right now, based on some academic papers I've written. I ended up going back and forth …

This is great stuff! Civ3 is still by far my favorite Civ. And a nice use of Godot.

People interested in similar experiences should check out this podcast/series of videos where two Windows/Mac users try desktop Linux and report out on their experiences. https://w…

I just want to pour one out for CalSky, that was a great page for setting up custom trackers for lots of astronomical things. It was very old school web too (for better or worse).

High five. 6 yrs in the USAF here.

Yes; APL is a University Affiliated Research Center (UARC) and while we sometimes do work with industry, our whole purpose is to support the US Government. That doesn't necessarily…

Nice to see fellow APLers here! I have been at APL 5 years and like it a lot.

Echoing others, thank you for writing this (as someone doing an applied math masters and digging into ML - I have used ESL for a class but not the others you mention)
