why life is very unfair? And why is it only some people and others they have the best life since born but some are struggling like crazy. is this a luck ?

been building a voice first os using jev and some small voice models. I'm surprised how well it's working and I'm very close to the point where I can go into a feedback mode and tell it what behavior I want changed, it will spin up Claude or codex inside itself and setup the build to restart itself and continue with new code. tempted to let it build itself completely

replied to:

It sounds amazing! A voice first OS was also in my mind. Curious to hear more!

Yello folks!

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

Ubuntu telepítése a VirtualBoxba rendben megtörtént. Már csak egy ügynököt kell bele fogni, és máris kész az "AI torture chamber", ahogy a Futurism írja... Mondjuk, első körben még nem így fogalmaznék...

Ubuntu has been successfully installed in VirtualBox. All you need to do is add an agent and you have an "AI torture chamber", as Futurism describes it... Let's just say I wouldn't put it that way at first...

Beautiful day with local community. Lots of physical labor, all my joints are swollen, back sore, soles of my feet aching, but a beautiful day of people working together and recognizing what a special group we have.

ooh maybe I revive and add this feature but instead of being able to modify everything it would be limited to adding features to the game/world. And it’s the perfect domain, a site that’s been ~~entirely~~ mostly hallucinated.

replied to:

Oh wow that site is amazing lol not seen it before

replied to:

ty! it’s been 3–4 months since I made it so it’s relatively new.

Ran a SQL workshop tonight, it went okay. just bums me out attendance to "learning" events is down unless you add the word AI to it.

I though textlog was a gonner there. It was several hours with just a 502 response. Glad to see it's back!

replied to:

I messaged stagas on reddit about it when it went down lol

replied to:

I'm certainly glad it's still around, I just got here.

I feel icky about code generation (as in writing software to generate code).

replied to:

Deterministic code generation is fine by me. Quite happy to use templating systems for example. Problems occur when randomness is introduced. If you can avoid that it should be less "icky".

Switching from Claude Max to Team, cc was trivial, just another login, but Claude Desktop and on iOS holds sessions in the cloud so need to move them somehow.

code quality is about coupling. coupling is not a technical property of the code bytes. code acquires its meaning in contact with the cultural environment, and coupling is about meaning. two constants with no semantic relationship are nonetheless coupled in pragmatics if they refer to the same domain concept. if your goal is to minimise the time integral of future work, you must understand your domain: it decides which lines will need changing. to carve up a codebase is to carve up the world.

replied to:

I think you're right but executing on that idea requires a lot of care. It's similar to how functional programmers pathologically fear state; sometimes coupling/state are a necessary evil in order to keep the theory simple.

replied to:

true! i might have been wiser to say: code quality is about managing coupling across the whole system. extracting a coupling sometimes requires you to introduce complexity beyond that which the extraction reduces.

Today, I wrote a new Business Continuity Plan, worked with my SRE manager to improve responses to alerts, got a cringe email from HR and have to tell my staff to RTO 3-days a week if not classified as remote. Worked out for my 8th day streak, and cuddled in bed with my girl. Hello World

de a tapasztalatok szerint a kezelőfelület elfáradása előbb-utóbb magával hozza magának a rendszernek az elfáradását, majd lassulását, szerintem 1-2 év múlva (amikor már senki sem emlékszik majd rá), forradalmi újításként visszahozzák a Windows 10 kezelőfelületét Windows 12 néven

but according to experience, the fatigue of the user interface will sooner or later lead to the fatigue and then the slowdown of the system itself. I think in 1-2 years (when no one will remember it anymore), they will bring back the Windows 10 user interface as a revolutionary innovation under the name Windows 12.
