If what you're trying to build is a perfect match for the full set of abstractions React provides then it's gonna be cleaner to use React than have AI re-invent it. But most cases I run into don't fit that description.
The LLM does not determine the next token. It generate odds for all of the tokens it knows as to their likelihood of being 'next'. It's up to the harness running the LLM (and in most cases the a temperature setting) to…
Sounds like a very narrow view on what constitutes science. There are many fields of science where there is existing data against which new ideas can be tested without additional 'real-world' measurements. Newton's…
Yes. But you don't need to monitor glucose levels to do this. Because it's well known you can productively use as much as you could manage to consume (without vomiting). So all the device will ever tell you (if you're…
If 'democratic values' are everyone having an equal voice in how the systems of a country are arranged. And if those people, through a democratic process, decide that the systems of their country shouldn't support the…
So is a zip file of source code. There is no 'compilation process'. Model training isn't a fixed end point. You start with random weights. You train. The weights get better. You do this iteratively. At some point you…
99% of AI users these days aren't using a 'raw' LLM. They are interacting with a harness that includes tools to do search of the live (or recently crawled) web. And so the output users actually see could absolutely…
In my previous life I did similar computational physics work with similar environments. I ran into a similar set of problems and found that with a little work one can cobble together tools to automate all the steps that…

Nope. The main cost of the old climate.gov was the salaries of the folks writing the articles and pulling together the resources. They were not getting paid exorbitantly and are quite interested in still getting paid.…
The site wasn't (isn't) about the data. It's about articles that contextualize the data. The money raised has allowed them to stand up a new site with all the old articles (which truth be told were all still nominally…
I think the point is that there has been a push to move away from this data continuing to be available from these sources.
The grass is there to keep the dirt in place.
If you want to get pedantic we can't simulate anything with complete accuracy in the absence of a theory that encompasses all the known forces. Which we don't have. (Damn you gravity. Can't you just get along with the…
It could be that once we truly understand math in a complete way it would lead inexorably to the definition of one and only one possible universe with only one possible set of rules and c and G would simply fall out…
But the metaphorical goal is to cover distance not get fit or to make the best use of what you trained for. A trained runner on a bike is faster than a trained runner. At least if the metaphor is about coding as a means…
I had a box set up as NAT (running amazon linux) when we moved from a local datacenter to AWS in 2012. Shut it down last year. It had not been rebooted. Should have grabbed a screen capture of the uptime. Part of me…
Perhaps LLM's do replicate the important features of "neurons and synapses and learning" and perhaps a "statistical modelling of our words" is pretty much what our brains are doing? Most of the counter-arguments I've…
Tell me about the techniques you use to ensure all the code you use is 'correct'. and then explain why those techniques can't also be used by an AI.
It's not that you're prompting it wrong. It's that you're judging the output against a standard (human intelligence) that just isn't relevant--no matter how much we want it to be and no matter how much the fluency of…
You have misunderstood what structural racism is. It is not about the majority of people being racist. Is about the systems being constructed in ways that lead to racist outcomes. You can have a society with zero racist…
It's like you're making the best you can of the current situation you find yourself in as an individual while also working toward changing the overall situation.
Or you point your Claude code at a different LLM provider. It's not complicated and there are lots of vendors (and in the open-weights space multiple vendors serving the same models competing on price). Sure DeepSeek 4…
I just put the terribly generic query "what tools would you recommend to integrate fraud prevention or account takeover protection into my product" into both Claude (Sonnet) and Gemini (3.1 Pro) via the standard web…
