The important part is PBCs protect you from a shareholder primacy directive. Eric Ries describes it in his new book, but the example he gives is if the most evil company you know tried to buy out your company you have to do it in a normal &

I've been reading the book. The important part is in 2004 they were offered to be acquired by serono. Because of their governance they were able to say no to the acquisition. Meanwhile serono was later acquired by merck and largely shu

One thing I loved about the first solveit course was how create the community is. It goes back to fast.ai too, but everyone is super kind, smart, and has diverse backgrounds. We've captured a slice of that on our main site. Testimonial

Here is a video showing off using solveit for creating a web app. https://youtu.be/DgPr3HVp0eg?t=3120 To reiterate other comments, this is more about the methodology than the tool, but it is fun to see the tool in action to

Right. I agree, but I think you are appealing to generosity when it works just as well if you appeal to greed and selfishness. If I'm a parent who does not intend to take advantage of the program and therefore not to get any benefit di

Templating is great. I think I prefer fasthtml because I can apply all of the python tricks I know. Python arguments seem to work very well. Having a list of dom elements and splatting them into another component would feel very similar to

Imo they are abstractions but not quite as bad as you / myself / everyone else is used to. Monsterui is moreso an extension of fasthtml. It doesn't hide any of the underlying API. Same with fasthtml with respect to htmx. Htmx

There is no reason for the author to be misleading about Table as a "high level component". There are more than enough examples that fit your definition. Look at the code for dashboard and music and you will see plenty of abstract

If you want a custom Div you can just define a function for it. The definition of DivLAligned is just for convenience. You can see its implementation is fairly trivial. https://github.com/AnswerDotAI/MonsterUI/blob

Much better really? Looking at the muni map, pretty much all transit clusters around downtown. And bart doesn't even stop at 4th and King. You have to go to Millbrae for a close-ish transfer. Added to that the transit center is very cl

The other important implication is how Caltrain could be routed through underground tunnels to Salesforce transit center. 4th and king isn't super nice and, correct me if I'm wrong, but it isn't well connected to other modes

I took a waymo in Chandler that had no safety driver and it was able to make unprotected left turns just fine.

I work for Lyft's self driving car division, Level 5! Nbdev has been great. I use it a lot. Thank you for all of the work you've put into it!

So I use this in production at my company. It's an awesome tool. Personally when I'm coding in python I like to prototype in jupyter, copy code over, and then reimport anyway. Nbdev streamlines everything so I can write docs, test

Been using this for work projects. A lot of raised eyebrows when people hear jupyter first development, but the automated docs, flexibility with prose, inline testing, out of the box pip packaging, and git integration make it well worth it.

I took a neuroscience course back in the day that discussed findings related to autism. I don't remember everything, but there was a discussion on excess dopamine early in the brain and a later depression of glutamate levels. All in al

Sometimes it is useful to make useless things. It will build experience while being fun and making you more able to come up with "useful" things. Tried this with a friend of mine. Our plan was. 1. Take webcam at desk. 2. Build mod

You can but it's not ideal. What if you want to write your own cuda kernel for your experiment? Python isn't really setup for this easily unless you want to throw odd c++ integrations into your code. Swift is designed to be a dire

FWIW I use the %debug magic command in Jupyter and it has been a great experience. I'm pretty ignorant of the enterprise debugging tools so take that with a grain of salt.

I just did this in my University lab as well. Most people aren't savvy with Linux, so having normal accounts with Jupyter port forwarding is out of the question. JupyterHub is just about the lowest friction I can possibly make it for i

I was a student in neuroscience, and I got the same impression from people in the field that AGI isn't close. However, arguments were typically from the standpoint of whole brain simulation. We know very little about the brain. And we
