Then the rye code "needs more meat" too yes, but not that much changes, |fix { code } already does the fixing and provides an alternative, |^check { failure construct dialect }, already wraps received failure into a new one you co

But sometimes you must act on exceptional situations, recover, take alternative route, provide default, or translate exception from lower level one to a higher level one. From cause based to more intent based. Err, file not found setup.txt

Thanks! But words with dots vs. Pipes dont work that way. All functions, user level or builtins (written in Go) (or generic methods that dispatch on the Kind of first arg) have exactly the same calling conventions/rules. Dot vs pipe is

I agree, if you don't have a clear view on what you want to do on certain exception, or you are adding information or translating/wrapping error into a higher level one, then it can be cleaner to let program fail naturally in that

Generated images moved even faster than generated code in a way through it's cycle, so maybe there is a lesson there we can observe and that you also touch upon.

Well i would be very happy if i could write that instinctively (at least the feel/flow makes it seem like that) in english, but i can't even by a long stretch.

The article is me coping with my existential crisis, trying to explore and accept my fears by writing it. And by exploring ideas I think I found some vision for my stance in all this - or hope if you will. I hope these feelings will be real

And it's not just that the execution is faster now. The competition saw the "outer shell" of your idea. But LLM platforms (the forest) - they see the internals, if you used them to explore and develop it. They also see all si

The dynamics at least with the space dark forest is different than when we live on the same planet. It has to do with lack/slow communication over vast space (that you can't trust anyway). It relied on two principles "the cha

This is interesting. When I read if for the second time, trying to understand it - maybe even better match for the low orbit flying garbage would be "enshitification"? As the time goes on, more and more garbage is produced, and we

As the first line of the post says - it's a thought experiment, so comments like yours that open new options and ask new questions are the best outcome. I have no other comment other than - very interesting. I thought about how the ove

Interesting irony :). If you don't produce the idea in fear of just feeding the forest, someone else will, so it might as well be you. It's true that this is very similar as current dilemmas some people have about their ideas. The

I seem to get into sort of existential crisis every few moths with the progress that llm-s are doing. I probably fool myself for a while that "it's not real", then at some point I can't fool myself any more - then I acce

I hope the open source models / crowdsourced approaches to training will also be an important part of the ecosystem, keeping it honest and providing an exit. Similarly, as it does for operating systems and other important software. But

Well, I didn't know for this book, so I suspect or hope the exact points that I make won't map to the ones from the book. It is true that the original "The dark forest" book made an impression on me, so I was thinking ab

Platforms cherry-picking successful ideas and stealing them isn't new. Platforms could do this because they had the capital and the platform (distribution). What is different is, is that LLM platforms literally have world's though

I was never an iOS user, or developer - exactly because Android was more "open", exerted less control over a user of the device. The same reason I use Linux for 25 years (not ideological, but it just makes most sense by far). In t

What are these /thelang and /showlang? Are these like permanent urls that we can use to filter posts? This makes me thing about what other permanent urls/filters there are. Is there a list somewhere?

It's interesting how often there are similarities between Numshell, Rye and Lil, although I think they are from different influences. I guess it's sort of current zeitgeist if you want something light, high level and interactive.
