Haha, this is very true. Symbolic AI is dead for the most part, but I feel like it was an issue of labor scale. There weren't enough code fluent humans to embed all the knowledge. I do think symbolic AI will see a resurgence though.

Yeah, I think the story is that Penrose saw an illusion in an Escher print that encouraged him to create the Penrose Triangle, his dad Lionel created the Penrose staircase, and then sent a copy of these in the paper "Impossible objects

Author here. I think in general this is sound advice, but in Emacs it is an incredibly convenient utility. I use them all the time. Mostly simple things like wrapping function definitions, or even other macros that wrap function definiti

This is unreal. This is also a fascinating read https://horwitz.ai/model-atlas . it's linked in the tool but i missed it at first glance.

I love this take because I had exactly the opposite idea. I thought the combo of remarkably simple text (not even wrapped) with incredible, full width visualizations was chef's kiss. I really like the balance there personally, but I

I love EWW! It's incredible. If you mostly use the browser for reading, you'd be surprised how much EWW actually renders. It is true that a lot of JS sites won't play nice in EWW, but I find that's quite rare, and it&

Dude that milkman joke made me cackle out loud. It's hard to draw a direct analogy there, but I feel like it echoes the same sentiment. A soapbox I have is that GHA workflows are scripts that could run on your machine without any of th

I feel for you.... This is not a position you should be put in. There's always the escape hatch of running you GHA workflows locally, but unfortunately, despite the existence of packages like `act`, there is no way to fully recreate t

Time to rant... This is absolutely unreal. Even self-hosted runners are impacted.... How can that be? The cost of this globally has got to be in the hundreds of millions to companies that use CI/CD through GitHub Actions. What if prod

This is nuts. I remember there was chatter about kicking the tires of the canvas patch in Emacs with DOOM. This is sick. I hope people reading this post understand that this is DOOM the video game, not doom the emacs distro. Well done!

Just stumbled across this. It's just Emacs docs defined elsewhere but with a modern UI, great organization, and wonderful features.

Was reading this after exploring the tree-sitter package. It's amazing how long this ideas take to be fully implemented in the mainstream. This is a fascinating idea for any one who's into text editors!

This post is about Hyperbole's HyWiki package for knowledge management. I've been doing a deep dive into knowledge management and PKMSs, and in my research I've found that HyWiki offers the best of all words. It has a truly u

"Emacs can draw line-level indicators in the built-in fringe and margin, the thin gutters beside the buffer text. The fringe gives you a single monochrome mark per side, and the margin can technically hold more, but getting several ind

"Rendering an Emacs status bar as an SVG image, like with my svg-line package, really is several times heavier than the native text engine. The skeptics were right. But it doesn't matter in practice: even a fully-repainted 3000-pi

This is awesome! I was literally just thinking about this yesterday. Do you feel like this will diminish Bluesky in any way? I wonder if having 2 models for interaction (twitter style + thread style) will muddy the waters at all? It does

I don't have anything sophisticated to say about this, but I know the footnotes are critical. There are some plot points in there. They are also an important aspect of the book's structure and the methodology of reading the text

Ah this is a good catch! I think "higher power" would fit way better given how I framed this sentence. Ennet's members aren't surrendering to substance (they've already done that). Like you said, once in the half

This is such an interesting story, and very much in line with DFW's writing in IJ. I think this reality is something many folks are still in denial about. Like, how many times do you see an add depicting some translucent person's

I'm not sure I agree. A more solid prophecy would be InterLace and the teleputer (analogous to streaming and smartphones, respectively). I do think the Entertainment is a solid prophecy of doom scroll / infinite scroll, which is n

As a rule-of-thumb, I'd say if you've made it past the introduction of each vertex I describe in the article (Ennet, ETA, Wheelchair assassins), you're good to bounce around and play the chaos game in that way. Put another w
