I'm trying to reclaim the word Santa from the toxic concept Santa has become (judging kids as naughty/nice is a perspective that's subjective and denies the very real need for acceptance, name calling is also a recognized form of abuse). I'm hoping to build a simple first version of www.santaisdeadlonglivesanta.net with a bit of text and a few pictures. It's meant to be the launch of the SANTANET, the network of peop…
Building an AI friend using language models. * Cares about you deeply and wants you to be better. Not in a cheesy feelsgood way, in a truly kind way. * Can ask questions and lead the conversation * Understands and displays emotion * Not entertainment * Learns and remembers traits about you * Dynamic and learns new abilities rapidly * Pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with AI If you’re interested in talking to…
One thing I thought really interesting and had noticed (and I think you have also) - current digital assistants don't actively/autonomously engage with the user much. Especially not in any way that would make me think they are "friendly". This is definitely something that can go sideways quickly, but on the face of it, I really do love the idea of a benevolent AI that actively tries to interact with me in a safe way (with the ability to shut it off when you don't want it to!).
Wish you luck and if you have anything I can use to follow your work, would be interested!

yep, exactly. When Facebook changed their name to Meta, people were looking for a good acronym for the biggest tech companies.
It's kind of weird to use Alphabet in this context because people at Google seem to mostly still refer to it as Google, and the comp and hiring standards vary widely between the "other bets".
I like it, I hope it catches on. Right now I think it's just odd looking because it's unfamiliar.
* Based on lean software. With a small footprint. * The project itself should be a teaching project. I would like to document all algorithms from Risch to numeric solvers in ODE * Free, open source, oriented towards education in mathematics
I am a theoretical physicist and have been working as a computer programmer for the last 10 years. Money is not a concern anymore for me and I really have an urge to give back. Also I am happy to collaborate in any project in the intersection of mathematics, education, physics and programming.
If you have a nice project you can have my axe!
I want to put together a DIY water cistern out of a 55 gallon barrel by connecting an inlet straight to the tap water through a fine filter. According to the CDC it's fine to store water that way for like 3 months at least, so we can use a siphon to drain the barrel periodically to refill it with fresh water after sanitizing the barrel. What I'd be looking for in a collaborator is people who are able to spread the wo…

Id love for any seasoned golang experts to do a review of my code and highlight any areas that could be improved.
