    If I repeat this experiment, I'll be a lot more careful about that, or also alternate which direction I'm standing in. I didn't realize R/L preference was biased until I did the da…

    Author here, yes, that's correct. The initial set-up was to do 3 comparisons of the 5 treats (30 trials), alternate between right and left hand, then write a quick python script to…

    Author here: I did a quick experiment with my Greyhound, Bebop, to figure out the treat he prefers best using pair-wise comparison analyzed with the Bradley-Terry model. Same tech …

    Author Here: I wrote this about using numerical optimization to solve problems in my daily life. I'm interested if anyone else has done the same, and what worked for them!

    Author here: I wrote this article about a failure I had applying LLM to an enterprise codebase, and ran a quick pilot study on a similar repo to understand the failures better. I'd…

    Something like 98 to 99% of prints worked out. When I wrote the piece, the moments of failure shaped the process and my approach, and not representative of the average print. For t…
