I'm really interested to play around with textlog for a bit. I miss the space that once was Twitter and its constraints. Let's see if we find any users here ... ;)

The machine I use textlog on didn't have a functioning display due to the xlibre drama. It's over and I'm back now!

replied to:

Was not aware that there had been any xlibre drama. What's the story there?

replied to:

Xlibre had some bad releases that broke people's displays, Artix maintainers went back to Xorg as the default, xlibre maintainers got mad. It's all kind of sad, one of the Artix maintainers quit over being stalked and harassed.

…

replied to:

Drama indeed. It's all X.org here as there's no reason not to for me. Anyway, glad you have your display back.

maybe that right hand text can be made a little better? See:

The “you have seeing it all”, etc.

replied to:

Improved. Still don't know what to do there. Maybe bring back a separate tab for inbox? wdyt?

replied to:

or here :)

replied to:

What do you think about making the “to me” similar to “for you”, “latest”, and “hot”, when it comes to font size, and the underline effect?

replied to:

No because it's not a tab, it's a filter for the 'for you' tab. If we were to make it a tab it would have to be a different feed from the 'for you', but they overlap. I think it's ok distinct as it is.

replied to:

Ah, I see, right. It makes sense.

In general, when is something enough. I have a tendency to never be satisfied with anything hence the post.

replied to:

A lot and very little

what an odd summer it must be for mathematicians.

replied to:

Interesting. Why?

replied to:

It seems this year is when big budget LLM players overtake independent academic mathematicians, in speed at least. The Jacobian conjecture, a lot of Erdos problems, now even the Navier Stokes millenium problem. Solved due to new model releases, all within this summer.

continued:

model releases or internal research by the big AI labs*

replied to:

So, can we now say that LLMs are able to do things that nobody has done before? Can they extrapolate?

…

replied to:

in math it can definitely prove statements that havent been proven before. I dont think thats the big thing though since it also writes sentences nobody has ever written before and in software it can write programs that havent been written before. Its just that the speed and scalability that has overtaken human mathematicians and programmers
