    Very cool! I posted my own experiments in this area a few months back, which were an iteration on an existing Ableton MCP. It’s great to see more people experimenting in the spaces…

    One thing I don’t cover in the blog post is ensuring your MCP tool calls are well documented. (If it’s an existing MCP you can do this with a README or instructions file.) I saw a …

    Author here, I think you’re spot on. If I set out specifically to make a mashup and spent the same number of hours working toward that goal I think I could have gotten to the same …

    I think it just got folded under the umbrella concept of model alignment. And it moved from theoretical discussions to practical daily struggles with LLMs deleting failing unit tes…

    That’s exactly what I have. The C++ codebases I work on build against a specific pinned version of LLVM with many warnings (as errors) enabled, and building with a different versio…

    I didn’t see any mention of running a model locally on device like the Hibiki abstract states. Is this available?

    For low dimensional (such as 2D) projections of high dimensional data, especially useful for visualization, take a look at UMAP - https://umap-learn.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

    vscode remote containers are still the standard, but I find them very usable nowadays. My setup is a MBP M2 that I use to remote into a Windows WSL setup at home, a Linux desktop a…

    Yes, Cruise cars have enough pose/gesture recognition for this. It’s needed for road construction with flaggers.

    Take a look at the MCAP file format ( https://mcap.dev ), we invented it for the robotics industry but it’s a generic write-optimized container format for time series data. Since i…

    It’s not just you, this is a fundamental challenge in programming. I think this paper by Peter Naur lays out the reason why it’s difficult, because software is a lossy representati…

    Even for our company, we would fork over the $600 but it looks like all of the EV cert options require a hardware signing key. Putting a human in the loop for our otherwise fully a…
