Truth social being an example of a Mastodon server that doesn’t market itself as being . Doesn’t federate either, and they’ve violated the license, but core concept is there to be …

Absolutely is but if onboarding requires help from a human then there is work to be done.

> I've helped people join a Mastodon instance and set up their profile and follow a few people in a matter of minutes. That you had to do this is the issue that I'm talking about.

My justification for stating that is that we're seeing people come back to Bluesky whereas people would try to create an account on a Mastodon service, their first post would be co…

I think that the clear preference people have for Bluesky over the Fediverse shows that maybe it's as decentralised as people as willing to accept. Fedi is an amazing piece of soft…

That'd be a convincing argument if the internet wasn't brainwashing a significant portion of adults into believing weird things about the political elite, vaccines, 5G, etc.

Given the amount of people blindly trusting the output, I think that a case could be made that guardrails are a necessity for LLMs. The example in the article is medical diagnostic…

We recently soft launched the new https://feetr.io website as well as our stock market AI, and are knocking our pan in to fix the little bugs that have been uncovered in addition t…

New to me! Will give it a bash.

Favourite time of the year! I am, however, continually surprised that SLY doesn’t have more mindshare. Similarly jonathan. I guess cl-json and SLIME are _good enough_ for most peop…

I wrote this about it two years ago: "I agree in that IH is not a Ponzi scheme however it is a really big marketing channel for a lot of people and that means that this place is no…

Did you move there a few days ago?

There are some pretty impressive benchmarks on https://ai.google.dev/gemma . Even the 2b model looks fairly not awful? I guess my weekend is going to be spent exploring this.

I'm unsure if either of these help you with regards to HTML and PDF? https://orgmode.org/manual/LaTeX_002fPDF-export-commands.htm... https://orgmode.org/guide/HTML-Export.html I sh…

Children in the UK are born without parents, so it's a valid point by OP.

Labour are Tory-lite. They are unable to win an election otherwise (or so they believe).

We've been experimenting with LLMs to create price predictions and stock analysis for day trading, and I really haven't been impressed with Bard at all. People in the comments are …

The old joke about lisp ruining all other languages holds true (at least in my experience), so it's a monkeys paw wish of yes, you get to work with lisp but you'll never be able to…

Yeah, we use CCL for local development and SBCL for running code on servers. I hear that the development story is better with CCL due to improved error messages but I'm not sure ho…

Guix is in a really good place right now and I'd have no reservations recommending it. Of course, there is the initial onboarding experience which can be tough if it's a completely…

We don't really overcomplicate it. A merge into development will pull the code onto the development server and then either restart lisp or recompile (depends on the application), a…

We aren't currently, no, sorry. However, I'll reach out when that changes!

`cloc` has it at 24k lines of code so it's by no means a huge project but it's big enough where I feel like we would have encountered a large variety of issues. As of yet there has…

We use it for stock market analysis over at https://feetr.io . Honestly, I couldn't imagine a better language as it makes large tasks almost effortless. Plus the fact that I can co…
