Tacit programming + llm control library (like LangChain) has a lot of untapped potential. Tacit programming shines when the control structures are simple (and functions/variables can be anonymized), and these patterns occur frequently

For those who have the book, what is contained in the "discussion of the interactive Lisp programming process" as mentioned by Paolo?

Forth really changed the way I think. I now take notes in a Forth-like way. Very underexplored.

In my experience, perfectionism is crafted post-procrastination. It probably makes no sense, but the mind often does this convoluted thing in order to protect procrastination.

Agreed. Our computers are so powerful, do we really need this additional complexity? And of course, if performance becomes an issue, we can make minor improvements then.

Literally everything was happening on Twitter. From spaces to “OpenAI is nothing without its people” to heart emojis. Sam and Greg posted their statement there. This is a huge win for Twitter.

Why do you think people undervalue it? Very curious.

1. I don’t think it’s too hard to understand BYOK or n number of tokens. I’ll have to talk to the market at large but personally, pretty clear. 2. Maybe you can suggest an alternative?

Well, this is just clickbait. Choose boring technology means sth pretty concrete for someone without context. It’s not that you can’t reasonably title it. It’s that you can’t reasonably title it to generate views. I understand the sentiment

We need a new language/DSL. Python is a lost cause for strings as first-class.

It’d be cool if it acted against Github repos, then you can save the embeddings and have a unified interface for querying repos. I had this problem trying to learn a library and figuring out what all the functionalities are. I ended up maki

This space is surprisingly under-explored. Any idea in this space is basically new.

I think I used the wrong word here. But they fall under a different legal category iirc.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but isn’t this exactly what trial by TV is? Trial by its nature presents evidence (strong or not), but the point of trial by TV is that the public, not the court, decides the legality of actions, where legality is

Reflexion can serve as good reference here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.11366 Essentially, AI’s output is fed into a checker, whose output is fed back into the AI for “reflexion”. Then the AI often corrects (leading to

Right. Don’t you think it’s a bit of a stretch to make strong evaluations of a platform if you use it very rarely, in a non-usual manner? Do you care to qualify your statements like: > …Twitter is such a horrible place Or > [hateful c

Thank you for the detailed response. Correct me if I am wrong, but I have a suspicion you don’t use Twitter, you study it. Thus you are viewing the fringes, but perhaps not aware of the average user’s experience. AFAIK Twitter uses a demoti

Alright, if you will, help me understand your position. Maybe it’s good to agree on some baselines. 1) Do you think freedom of speech is important? 2) How do you draw the line between free speech and hate speech? 3) Who should draw the line
