Not OP but I’ve noticed a lot of racists, extreme right nationalists, religious chauvinists, etc. Which sucks because the concept is quite cool and I’d love to be able to jump from one question to the next, but pretty quickly I get irritated and have to close it.
I was recently at the airport in Amsterdam, going from San Francisco to Berlin. The EU passports line (like always) was non existent while the non EU line was nearly an hour long. I almost missed my flight (and my checked bag did) but it was totally worth it to see all the pissed off Brits complaining about having to wait.
I have 3 friends that I play Civ V with weekly, in person LAN parties maybe once or twice a year. Civ 6 never caught on and I’m the youngest in the group (at 39) so I just went with it. But going by the principle that odd number Civs are good we are excited for 2025.

Super sad, Chef Nelson is awesome Sobre Mesa is also really good.
I think perforce is mostly used. There certainly should be a changelog but no text diff really.
Sikhs want Punjab to be its own country, separate from India. India post Congress is ruled by Hindu nationalists who want to rewrite history books and erase anything positive that happened in precolonial India (which wasn’t really a country in the modern sense, but a changing set of integrated states) under non Hindu rule. The BJP are fascist shit stains and literally ordering hits on Sikh activists abroad for trying to promote Sikh separatism. There’s really not much more nuance than that. Fuck Modi.
It’s the part of ruby that replaced perl. For whatever eldritch horror perl was it was very, very good at doing text manipulation, and IME the only language to really match that experience was ruby.
I don’t get the downvotes. I’ve hired probably 30+ engineers over the last 5 or so years, and have been writing code professionally for over 20, and I fully agree with your sentiment.
In addition to iroh there is https://github.com/earthstar-project/meadowcap-js and other projects under https://github.com/earthstar-project. See https://willowprotocol.org/more/projects-and-communities/index.html#projects_and_communities
https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/Memory-Cache is the actual project if you want to use it.
Basically it’s a firefox extension to save a page as a pdf in a directory that is symlinked to your local PrivateGPT install which then ingests the docs. It doesn’t seem to me that it provides any in-browser querying of PrivateGPT but I haven’t tried setting it up to confirm that.
I think that is overly simplistic. Embeddings used for LLMs do definitely include a concept of what things mean and the relationship of things to other things.
E.g., compare the embeddings of Paris, Athens, and London to other cities and they will have small cosine distance between them. Compare France, Greece, and England and same. Then very interestingly, look at Paris - France, Athens - Greece, London - England and you’ll find the resulting vectors all align (fundamentally the vector operation seems to account for the relationship “is the capital of”). Then go a step further, compare those vector to Paris - US, Athens - US, London - Canada. You’ll see the previous set are not aligned with these nearly as much but these are aligned with each other (relationship being something like “is a smaller city in this countrry, named after a famous city in some other country”)
The way attention works there is a whole bunch of semantic meaning baked into embeddings, and by comparing embeddings you can get to pragmatic meaning as well.
It varies on who does the interview but I push for much simpler than leetcode type stuff- e.g. not puzzle problems but more “design a program that can represent a parking structure and provide a function that could be used for the ticket printer to determine where a new car should park, as well as one that can run upon exit to determine payment”
Then if they are actually solid we can dive into complexity and optimization and if they can’t write a class or a function at all (and esp if they can’t model a problem in this way) it’s really obvious.
I’m betting you aren’t involved in hiring? The number of engineers I’ve interviewed with graduate degrees from top universities who are fundamentally unable to actually write production quality code is mind-boggling. I would NEVER hire somebody without doing some panel with coding, architecture/systems design, and behavioral/social interviews.
I don’t disagree at all. And if your worldview allows you to paint 1.4B people with the same brush based on the news you’ve read, also quite horribly bad (and pretty fucking racist) IMO.
Going out on a limb here to guess that “Hank” has never been to India?
There’s a whole lot of crazy bad but also an incredible amount of absurdly beautiful. I think unfortunately the worldview in India accepts both equally and generally believes, in the words of Bruce Hornsby or Tupac, that’s just the way it is.
Many (14?) years back I attended a conference (now I can’t remember what it was for, I think a complex systems department at some DC area university) and saw a lady give a talk about using agent based modeling to do computational sociology planning around federal (mostly navy/army) development in Hawaii. Essentially a sim city type of thing but purpose built to help aid in public planning decisions. Now imagine that but the agents aren’t just sets of weighted heuristics but instead weighted heuristic/prompt driven LLMs with higher level executive prompts to bring them together.
I fully agree with this, would have written something similar but was eating lunch when I made my former comment. I also think there’s a big part of pragmatics that comes from embodiment that will become more and more important (and wish Merleau-Ponty was still around to hear what he thinks about this)
I still play civ v with a few friends pretty much weekly. A couple times a year one of our wives and kids go out of town and we lan party from 4pm to 6am and actually finish a game!
