I think the premise is mostly wrong, and it confuses functional programming with aesthetic programming.

Yes, it is awesome. Funny we got this level of capability now and we all take it in our stride. Growing up in the 80's I loved futuristic scifi, feels like I am in it now. And even I am 'just' taking it in my stride.

What I am thinking is the way you make it 'keep going' and when you have people of the calibre of Tao doing it I kept thinking how many breakthroughs is he going to cause the LLM to find with his targetted questions :D Amazing tha

I am even tempted at this point to test Mistral, even though the signs say it lags behind quite far. I just wonder if that as a bottom bar is good enough.

The whole Anthropic/US administration/Fable guardrails/overpricing situation has been so frustrating for me and disruptive that I am really an inch away from just removing Claude Code/Codex (or any other US LLM) from my

Not very pro or anti BASIC but very pro your rationale, and love that you do what you do because it is fun and stimulating. I love reinventing wheels also, and, in fact, believe it is under appreciated just how useful it actually is. I&#x27

This is potentially a inflection point for windows being the dominate OS. If Google, who now have Android working on desktop, and can market it well enough. Since half of the mobile users in world would be less afraid to try something they

Yes, I agree, and understand the point better. Totally a great thing if this can be made accessible to a wider audience and not expect them to do all the work to grok it, especially if there are easy/easier ways to bring it to a wider

Seems reasonable not sure why other governments aren't doing similar to protect youths.

I think the initial surface look makes scheme give a bit of an 'oh crap' response. But since minikanren is actually a small program and scheme doesn't really have syntax the language should be less of a problem than initial c

I don't know about other people's experience, but from mine, I see a lot (most) devs abstracting too early in the name of clean code. I guess engineers gonna engineer when simple boring repetition is sufficient and those premature

Unfortunately, I don't feel confident humanity has the ability not to destroy the environment that sustains our life. We are simply too selfish, unable to adjust our thinking to new information sufficiently, lack compassion for others,

Pure functions, i.e. that are 1) idempotent 2) have all their arguments passed in 3) cause no side effects as a by product of evaluating the function are fundamental to functional programming.

There are planning to take on Amazon, for one, but not sure what they are doing internally so couldn't possibly comment on that front.
