@zerohedge Hammack needs to go f*** in a hammock instead of raising rates. I'm not a socialist; but the higher the rates go, while the $$ goes to the top 1%, the harder it hits mass production/economies of scale driving costs up for the people at the bottom->same result as inflation.

So... In the last few days I have had my agents write: 1. A word processing app in which I will write future books. It replaces Scrivener. 2. A script writing app in which I will write future video scripts. It replaces FinalDraft. 3. Crapper, a tool that measures and records CRAP statistics for projects. The tool handles many different languages, and adding new ones is easy. 4. Mutator, a tool that runs mutation tests and records the results. The tool handles many different languages and adding new ones is easy. 5. Dryer, a tool that runs duplication analysis on a project. The tools handles many different language and adding new ones is easy. 6. UML-Viewer, a tool that displays the structure of a project in a UMLish diagram that shows modules and dependencies and highlights dependency cycles. Clicking on a module displays it's contents; which may be deeper UML diagrams or, at the leaves, code. The tools color codes the modules to reflect their CRAP and Mutation scores, and as you drill down you can see those scores for each module and function. The tool understands many different languages, and adding new languages is easy. I recon that, last year, this would have been well over a man-year of effort. All these tools are in github.com/unclebob. I advise you not to use them directly. Instead, point your agents at them and use them as templates to build the tools that are customized to your needs. The licenses are all BSD Zero, meaning that there are no strings. Do what you like.

@BlaireWhite I love you ❤️ and your repartee Blaire 🔥

Jensen Huang promotes open-source LLMs for innovation. Great. The next step is democratizing compute. High GPU costs remain one of the biggest barriers to academic research and grassroots innovation. Imagine the impact if NVIDIA also expanded free or heavily subsidized compute for researchers and open-source projects. Open models need accessible compute to truly unlock innovation.

To welcome you back to school, it's time for a new release of Speech and Language Processing! Our August 2026 edition finally has a chapter 1! Check it out here: web.stanford.edu/~jurafsky/slp3/

@jartine @dbasch You are unique, at least on Earth-if not the entire universe. Also, a sharp mind is beautiful. As Daniel and someone else pointed out - trends and trending news picked up by various socmedia algs are more well known-individuals (outside of famous ones) less so.

講義資料をまとめた本『脳とAIをつなぐ数理 ― 表現・学習・生成』のドラフトを公開しています。京大で学部生向けに行っていた講義「脳情報学」がもとですが、後半は表現の幾何・測定理論・対称性・生成モデルなど、いま関心のある話題を大幅に足しました kamitanilab.github.io/neuroAI-math-b…

I took a few friends & my daughter to Exotic Feline Rescue (near Terre Haute IN) to see various rescued big cats [former circus, magic act, home pets that grew too large, Joe Exotic (Tiger King) rescue etc.]

@veorq The math isn't mathing💩

In 1990, Michel Talagrand showed that given a₁,…,aₘ ∈ ℝⁿ, there are weights w₁,…,wₘ ≥ 0, only O(n log n) of them nonzero, such that ∑ᵢ wᵢ|⟨aᵢ,x⟩| ≈ ∑ᵢ |⟨aᵢ,x⟩| within 1% for all x ∈ ℝⁿ. 36 years later, that last log is gone: O(n) nonzeros suffice! [1/5]

The hardest problems are rarely solved by adding more complexity to the solution -- they are solved by reframing the question until a simpler, clearer answer reveals itself.

array processing is a really funny field because everything gets separately invented at least three times and -- naturally -- gets called different names because radar people, sonar people, and communications people don't like each other and don't talk with each other

@KiaNeu6 @lpachter @ras_nielsen Tis understandable if you feel "slighted". The ethics and morals in this modern world sure seem to swirl away into the ether. Sadly more people have a price where anything goes.
