    For You is based on your likes. If you get an empty feed then you probably haven't liked anything yet. Try liking a couple of posts in Discover feed and get back to For You.

    Since For You is based on likes I would suggest liking more posts that you want to appear in your For You feed.

    "likes by people you follow" is "Popular with Friends": https://bsky.app/profile/bsky.app/feed/with-friends The For You one uses only your likes: it finds people who liked the same…

    This is definitely doable and anyone can build such a feed using Bluesky's APIs. As an example, I built a "For You" feed https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:3guzzweuqraryl3rdkimjamk/f…

    Running one layer 4 times should fetch the weights of that layer once. Running 4 layers makes you fetch 4x parameters. The recurrent approach is more efficient when memory bandwidt…

    What you are describing is similar to how https://LinkLonk.com works (my side project) - when you "like" a link you get connected to the RSS feeds that posted that link and other u…

    My understanding is that the attention in all transformer layers is "causal" - that is the output of a transformer layer for token N depends only on tokens from 0 to N. This means …

    I think the commenter was thinking about the input embedding layer, where to get an input token embedding the model does a lookup of the embedding by index, which is constant time.…

    Just a directory of feeds could be of limited use. You don't know the signal-to-noise ratio of each feed for you. You subscribe to tens or hundreds of feeds and, boom, you have ano…

    I haven't used Artifact, but my understanding is it uses "AI" to personalize the feed of content and the sources of content it aggregates are based on an allow list of publishers. …

    gorilla/mux supports parameters in the path as well. For example: "/posts/{id:[0-9]+}" Passing the parameters from the handler to the template could be left to the user of the libr…

    Thanks for sharing! I liked the idea of defining the handle path in the name of the template and the auto-reloading on change functionality. I wish this was a stand-alone library t…

    What made a similar legislation "work" in Australia? Was it harder for Facebook and Google to block news there as well?

    Yes, it requires keeping track of how much each user trusts each other user. And then when you rank content for user A, you use the trust table of user A as weights of upvotes. Thi…
