    I recently wrote a blog post exploring the idea of interfacing with local LLMs for ambiguous tasks like this. Doesn't that make more sense than coding the neural network yourself? …

    I started blogging about stuff I've learned about that I am likely to forget down the road. It feels so good when you throw up a post, never share it, and still manage to get a tha…

    Out of curiosity, what is your development setup for that?

    These are awesome hobby devices to hack on. I’m not very experienced with graphics programming but I had a ton of fun developing with the SDK, wrote a blog post on it recently if a…

    Since this is Kotlin there's not really a sane way to call this from Clojure, right?

    I only read the headline, so I'm going all-in on Clojure/Datomic off the bat at a new job. Half kidding.

    I recently learned Fennel and cranked out a Love2D game as well. Not only that, but I discovered it’s trivial to run the game on some spare nintendo consoles I have lying around, b…

    I’ve been exploring this project recently, I’m having a great time with it so far. The many examples and great documentation are much appreciated. I’m very tempted to try it for so…

    I've really enjoyed reading (and playing with) kons-9's codebase in Common Lisp. It lets you do exploratory 3D modeling via the program's GUI or the repl. The source is very neatly…

    Would it be feasible to fine-tune a large, capable model (like the recent LIMA) on the source code (and maybe a few high quality libraries) of a niche language, such that it's much…

    The excellent backwards compatibility rocks too. This weekend I wanted a library to diagram the class hierarchy of a Java project I put together. I found a 10 year old library that…

    Since you mentioned sourcehut, I’ll point out that their static hosting is excellent. I host my blog on there and have had no issues.

    if anyone is interested, here's a blog post about using fzf's file preview feature to preview grep results: https://jeskin.net/blog/grep-fzf-clp/

    I came back to Emacs after trying alternatives for a while. I ripped out most of my config and found it much more pleasant to run close to stock. I'm having better luck using my we…
