    I envy you that it admitted that rather than simply making up data and lying about it.

    The arguments in the video are mostly misdirected, conflations of related but distinct issues, or (hypocritically) just opinions. Here are the unpacked issues as I see it: 1. Wheth…

    That's how you know it's just for show. A practically equivalent (for Fable) but infinitely more valuable contribution would've been to implement any missing lints as a PR to ruff …

    Your reference here is a 33 year old paper whose quoted observations and theoretical claims are totally out of date. The measured light element abundances are now consistent (and h…

    I think people working on these abstractions would claim that an appropriate abstraction does involve the exact features you mention. Cache hierarchies and vectorization are common…

    See https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.17101 . I've used some of the tools in the stack they describe (and see Sec 2 for an overview of others). JAX/XLA/etc. are somewhat similar, though s…

    Sorry, I wasn't aware of these developments (having abandoned CUDA for hardware-agnostic solutions before 2020). It doesn't change my point anyway, if it's specific to a single ven…

    CUDA is not C++. CUDA for GPU kernels is its own language. That's the actual problem requiring new languages or abstractions.

    If you think C++ is the best here, then I don't think you've actually worked in this space nor appreciated the actual problems these languages try to solve. In particular because y…

    Don't underestimate the willingness of physicists to skimp on literature review.

    I myself tried a similar exercise (w/Thinking with 3 Pro), seeing if it could come up with an idea that I'm currently writing up that pushes past/sharpens/revises conventional thin…

    The implication was that likely not all of the advice in this article, which was written by biologists, is actually attributable to McCarthy.

    This is certainly too strongly worded to be correct. I use footnotes quite a bit in my papers (physics) as a strategy to handle the "two audiences" problem - that many or most read…

    I think it's just wrong. Related, linked recently here: https://dwest.web.illinois.edu/grammar.html The authors are biologists, so I suspect they're not particularly versed in math…

    I like a lot of the advice here, except > Keep sentences short, simply constructed and direct. Concise, clear sentences work well for scientific explanations. Minimize clauses, com…

    This is certainly the case, but it does make it all the more amusing that the myth > Commas denote a pause in speaking.... Speak the sentence aloud to find pauses. made its way int…

    I would consider replacing my jupyterlab usage with marimo were it less opinionated about workflow - it offers a lot of benefits that aren't tied to its execution model. I like the…
