    Using LLMs to generate piles of code and/or proofs of dubious quality is very questionable thing, and I understand these non-stop debates about it. But in this case, as using plain…

    >I would expect it to require a proof that 1 - 2 is non-negative. That's kind of the raison d'etre of Lean isn't it? The reason is to be able to write mathematical proofs, includin…

    >It definitely is a bad convention because it's highly surprising. You know that `Nat` represents non-negative numbers, and you see that `1 - 2` does not produce a compile error. W…

    No, it’s still linked dynamically and its kernel is still in C++ (see https://github.com/leanprover/lean4/tree/master/src/kernel , this part of a codebase has hardly changed since …

    Who said that it should be a compile time error? That’s just a convention, and this is definitely not a bad one. No one is going to like the need to pass each time a proof that `a …

    Unfortunately Lean’s distribution went from somewhat about 15 MiB in times of Lean 3 to more than 2,5 GiB when unpacked nowadays for no good reason. This is too much. Even v4.0.0-m…

    Glad to see Rust project under AGPL-3.0. I wish to see more Rust projects under (A)GPL, because (A)GPL is rare in the Rust community for some reason.

    So instead of using programming languages designed specifically to effectively express algorithms and data structures, we are going to use natural language like English that is cle…

    I saw this DSL on HN yesterday, and this syntax is total garbage. It’s some stupid mixture of different PLs. Are you seriously OK with this so that you keep posting it here? I don’…

    It’s funny to see that even nowadays just a few people understand Windows 8’s UI, while the majority in these comments just blindly shits at it. Not surprising, though, since there…

    They now provide at least somehow working x86_64 images. It’s of course funny for a project started in the 90s to get x86_64 support only in the 2020s, but it’s still progress in r…

    No, it’s just you having some strange prejudices about these words (probably driven by blind faith in some overhyped technologies), so go better overregulate your preferred echo ch…

    I feel the same, because it seems that the only desktop-ready OS under GPL today is GNU/Linux, and it feels too bloated nowadays (not to mention that Linux is effectively stuck und…

    IANAL, but you can’t actually just relicense code, even if it’s under BSD‐like license. What you can do is to release this code in the binary form without providing the source code…

    Correctness of the kernel and consistency of the theory implemented in it are different things. Gödel’s theorems prevent you from proving the latter, but not the former.

    Euclid’s Elements “rigorous proof” is not the same thing as the modern rigorous proof at all. >But the infinitesimal methods used before epsilon-delta have been redeemed by the wor…

    “Paraconsistent logic” or “paraconsistent set theory” is what you are searching for.
