    Confused about how to access Ultra; I don't see it in on their plans page.

    Kolmogorov Complexity looks interesting. It seems to formalize Occam’s Razor and the notion that intelligence = compression.

    This is a fascinating mathematical framework, but the post title might be a bit of an overreach. I often wonder if "a theory of deep learning" could exist that could be stated succ…

    Yes! My first encounter with spreadsheets was SuperCalc for CP/M, and I suppose you would call it a "TUI" nowadays.

    What does the "Session Picker" section refer to? Claude Code does not have a session picker, as far as I can tell.

    Neat. Would be nice if I could easily drop the replayer into a slack thread. Maybe a video file would be better for that than an HTML file?

    This is not written by a former Google employee, it's written by a former Google user. Confusing title to see on hackernews.

    This post is well written, useful, and original. I'm surprised by the negative comments.

    Neat! I've been getting into crossword puzzles recently, does anyone know of nice places to play them, other than newspaper sites?

    This article has a superb diagram of the DeepSeek training pipeline.
