Slightly off-topic but a question I've been wanting to ask: as someone with a terrible sense of direction, the most important feature in a phone for me is the accuracy of the littl…

>one is essentially left with a CPU CPU? Ooh you lucky, lucky sod. Back in my day, you wanted an OR gate you had to string some NANDS together.

I'd love to hear the opinion of someone who has really good knowledge and experience of how byte-pair encoding works in models like these. I think I agree with you that in theory i…

Here's one I've come across before: https://www.scss.tcd.ie/~mtemms/Papers/neologism.pdf edit more recent version: https://aclanthology.org/C16-1129/

There is a really good government site for showing the location of all these ancient things. (you have to zoom in quite far before the dots appear) https://maps.archaeology.ie/Hist…

It seems to understand a fair bit about themes and rhythm but it just cannot do rhyme. Something to do with the token encoding.

>There's no debate on whether bargaining collectively leads to greater leverage in negotiation overall. It clearly does Totally! That's why I want to be pro-union. I don't know muc…

Because it's vague and hearsay. The most frustrating thing about these debates is that the pro-union side are so hostile to anyone who questions anything, as though they assume tha…

There was a great little tool that I think used to be in Ubuntu, but possibly another distro, where you could press a keyboard combo, and it would turn the cursor into a little cro…

An excellent paper on this issue here: https://aclanthology.org/J08-3010.pdf Agree with other comments on CRAPL, but you should release it.

Some of his writing in this reminds me a lot of David Foster Wallace (who is mentioned), in particular the way he is deeply concerned with seeming humble but feeling egotistical: s…

The article sets up a bit of a straw man (or maybe a motte-and-bailey) I think, because it says "all mammal brains (and most likely, all vertebrate brains as well) are built from a…

I agree with the other comments in here: this article takes several complex, long-running debates (modularity vs connectionism, predictive vs feedforward processing, dualism/monism…

I do understand the pushback on Wolfram's egotism and self-branding stuff, but he is absolutely wonderful to listen to and still comes across as a bit of a genius. I think history …
