You can learn how to build an LLM from scratch while doing all of those things...

A small diff /= a small change! They are completely separate things. Quite often a small diff is hours of actual work. Even in this case _finding_ those lines could have taken work - we don't really know.

I don't think there's anything passive here - it's a very constructive and valid argument. Are we not here to have a discussion?

We're a Haskell shop, so I usually just say "review the current commit. You're an experienced Haskell programmer and you value readable and obvious code" (because that it is indeed what we value on the team). I'll o

I recently started using LLMs to review my code before asking for a more formal review from colleagues. It's actually been surprisingly useful - why waste my colleagues time with small obvious things? But it's also gone much furth

So - exceptions are for invariant violations? I'm essentially trying to work out what it is that makes something "exceptional"

I'm curious how much this costs to run. I.e., how much are you paying for electricity?

I write Haskell with Claude Code and it's got remarkably good recently. We have some code at work that uses STM to have what is essentially a mutable state machine. I needed to split a state transition apart, and it did an admirable jo

This keeps getting parroted but it's flawed/overly idealistic/frankly naive. An awful of children are, unfortunately, poorly parented. This is not a new phenomenon, nor something we seem to be improving. OTOH, exposure to ext

Because we know the implications of poor quality food, and we also know those who would buy it have no choice but to buy the cheapest. So, no thanks. I'd much rather the state intervene here and keep this crap out. This "let consu

Because of the volume of documents, or because of some cognitive change at that age?

Honestly there's way more there, and you get consistent solid speeds. Find a provider with a lot of retention and you can find almost all mainstream media regardless of it's age. (Public) torrents tend to track what's popular

Sleep isn't the metric to track here, there are much better things to analyze such as HRV. For reducing drinking you shouldn't be doing that because of your sleep, you should be doing it because of your overall health. If you care

Very hard to answer without knowing what your goal is. Do you want to be a practitioner of DL, or do you want to be a researcher?

For those who won't bother to RTFA: the trains run cooler than other trains, so they are taking advantage of the difference such that the net result is the same temperature in tunnels, but the interior of trains can be cooler.

As I understand it, the point is that these models while they are _trained_ on identifying cats or cars, because they have soon so much variation during training have internalised very different concepts to help come up with "its a cat

I have the 9 and it's a fairly good phone, but seems to have a hard time working with UK phone networks. I get patchy 4G, not sure I've ever seen 5G, and there seems to be a very magic combination of settings that allows me to act

The analogous command here is `jj split -i`, which interactively splits the current commit (which is your working copy).

Yea, just GitHub repos. In fact just a single repo (work's mono repo) for now, but that's where I spend the majority of my day.

Nice to see this posted here. I switched over to it about 2-3 weeks ago, and I haven't looked back. It took a lot of mental rewiring, but I really enjoy the workflow `jj` provides. There's no longer a time to think about what&#x27

Very nice, but what's the upgrade story on these kind of things? Like if there's a bug in any of these, you've got to basically manually watch the repository and manually copy bug fixes back over

This isn't strictly true, an alternative is to have a language with enough encapsulation that you can parse into something that can only be observed as correct. The underlying parsing doesn't have to parse into sum types, provided
