Doing your own oil changes is not worth the hassle when considering the risk of a spill and the difficulty of legal disposal—unless you have a fancy engine that needs frequent oil changes. Cabin air filter and wiper…
The clear distinction between scalars and vectors appears to be the main advancement HUML offers. I think it’s a neat improvement.

That's a very clear vision on how to solve this kind of funding/cooperation problem outside of government and mission-focused nonprofits. And incidentally would be an existential threat to surveillance capitalism should…
I think LLMs are more like the invention of high level programming languages when all we had before was assembly. Computers will be programmable and operable in “natural language”—for all of its imprecision and…
The more general pattern is “slowly at first, then all at once.” It almost universally describes complex systems.
5mg may be an order of magnitude more than needed. I started my father [0] on ≈200ug and he was more animated and looked at photos around the house much more. Bumped him up to ≈500ug [1] the last two days, and he’s…
The important part is this: “a Li salt with reduced amyloid binding” If cells in the brain are being deprived of lithium due to sequestration by amyloid beta plaques, then a bioavailable form of lithium that is…
From the abstract of the paper: > Replacement therapy with lithium orotate, which is a Li salt with reduced amyloid binding, prevents pathological changes and memory loss in AD mouse models and ageing wild-type mice.…
Sure, but the amount and form of the lithium matters. 5mg of lithium orotate (as a supplement) versus 600mg lithium carbonate (as a mood stabilizer) will have vastly different acute and chronic health effects.
I’m a newish Kagi user and I find myself using the LLM about as frequently as search itself. Sometimes I search for things I know I am looking for. Other times I don’t know quite what I’m looking for or I know in…
The genius of capitalism is in its unique ability to harness the energy of sociopaths* to produce valuable products and services**. If there was no freedom to amass fortunes, these people would still exist, and they…
If all we needed was general intelligence, we would be hiring octopuses. Human skills, like fluency in specific languages, are implicit in our concept of AGI.
A layer of very thin gold can be transparent.
I agree, it's definitely still possible to get bored. If I stop making progress on my personal projects, sinking my free time into games or online interaction is very unsatisfying.
It doesn't seem like a completely different thing to generate specifications and formally verified programs for those specifications (though I'm not familiar with how those are done today).
Artificial Super-Intelligence
You might be underestimating the potential of an automated evolutionary programming system at discovering novel and surprising ways to do computation—ways that no human would ever invent. Humans may have a better…
The endpoint is that being a programmer becomes as obsolete as being a human "calculator" for a career. Millions, perhaps billions of times more lines of code will be written, and automated programming will be taken for…
I think you're too quickly dismissing the potential benefits. From the FAQ[1]: The combination of all the above properties, plus the fact that I/O is also separate from pure computation and updates, enables a number of…
They released a cell to cpp compiler last year: https://www.cell-lang.net/version-0.7.html GitHub: https://github.com/cell-lang/c-cpp/tree/master/src/compiler
I'm speculating that one would have more mirror neuron activation watching a person perform live, compared to listening to a recording or watching a video. Thus the missing component that makes live performance special.
Mirror neurons?
