I would love, _love_ to know more about your data formats, your tools, what the JSON looks like, basically as much as you're willing to share. :) For about a month now I've been wo…

These are SO, AMAZINGLY pretty! Are these blender renders? or...?

Do you mean a sphere eversion? :) Shoutout to my fav math visualization BITD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wO61D9x6lNY

Firstly, at the $219 price point you can have my money already. Beyond that, things that appeal to me are basically anything which increase the likelihood I can accomplish high dex…

Try TDA ("mapper", or really, anything based on kernel density computed connectivity), it's a whole new world. This ain't your parents' "factor analysis".

> "This Is How You Lose the Time War" No other book captured the feelings of being 20-something and flirting like reading this. Reading it felt like being right back there again, w…

I look forward to reading this in closer detail, but it looks like they solve an inverse problem to recover a ground truth set of voxels (from a large set of 2d images with known c…

Thanks for what you're doing. Of all the various companies and orgs posting chatter about deep learning, I've come to really appreciate your efforts (and Anthropic), because you're…

Most people don't correctly use an em-dash differently than a hyphen. That jumps out to me. :)

Wow! This is really cool! Really really cool! I imagine some sort of use where it's even more collaborative and not just "unadorned turn-by-turn". For example, maybe I'm taking not…

This is really, really cool and thanks for making it!! We must think at least somewhat similarly, last few times I was apartment hunting I did the same, though I never polished it …

I found it was surprisingly easy to "populate with every instance of a given type". I've made a few maps based on grocery and transit where I did it by adding all >100 stores & sto…

> What I don't get isn't the benefits of BWT on its own. It's why BWT should add any additional benefit if you're already doing Huffman. Ahhhh. Now we're on the same page. :) Seein…

I always understood it as working because of the predictability of a symbol/letter/token given the previous one. Sorting all the shifts of a string puts all the characters in order…

"Okay" Can you describe for me what the product does? It's not that hard to make a turnkey "just add power" appliance that does nothing but spit out tokens. Some sort of "ollama ap…

Intel PMem really shines for things you need to be non-volatile (preserved when the power goes out) like fast changing rows in a database. As far as I understand it, "for when you …

facepalm Wow, I had no idea. Thank you for providing the valuable additional context of the above being potentially from one of those "GME to the moon"... pauses ... people. I had …

HAHAHAHAH! Oh man... Ouch! First time I'm hearing it put that way!! As far as I knew, the contract was done before I left town! :) But that absolutely, to a T, sounds like (a disto…

neato! Curious where you're sourcing the raw feed from. Wire service (AP, Reuters, AFP)? Google news? "the wikipedia current events page"? Something else? As in every other enginee…

Dimagi became successful?!? Awesome! I also worked there as a third person, though I don't think overlapping with you. :) Congrats on living the dream, I tried, failed at that 5 ye…

My life got a lot easier since I adopted the habit of making a shell script, using buildah and podman, that wrapped every python, rust, or golang project I wanted to dabble with. I…

We're not all optimizing for the same thing. :) A comment containing a few terms I can google and educate myself on, if I'm curious, has far more value to me than "having a convers…
