It’s amazing how everyone thinks this sculpture’s message doesn’t apply to them. “My side’s flags are different, it’s the other side’s flags that are bad”. So many people here maki…

No, you don’t understand, it’s only British national flags that are bad!

Is it? Most people I know who have flags proudly displayed are left wing and their flags are usually one of: the Palestinian flag, the ukrainian flag, the LGBT rainbow flag, or the…

I wasn't asking it to define it. I came up with the list of principles first, then spent ages trying to think of a suitable name for them. It was quite gratifying when ChatGPT, wit…

When I posted about this project here and on reddit a few months ago I got a lot of people asking for advice and learning resources. I promised I'd one day provide a detailed write…

As someone who is terrified of agentic ASI, I desperately hope this is true. We need more time to figure out alignment.

What the frell! This is cool.

Couldn't agree more with the necessity for fast feedback loops. I've experienced the opposite, and it's not fun. I worked with Clojure/ClojureScript (mostly ClojureScript) for a co…

Thanks, I've made a new branch called display_fixes. Let me know if it works

Hi, thanks for the update. I’ll make this change when I get a chance. Thanks
