We have adopted marimo notebook for doing modern data science. I’m happy with their progress. Nice to see greater integration.

Looks great, but the pricing model is a challenge for a small team. If there was a generous trial period (for testing) with a lower small team price I might be able to consider it, but it’s hard to justify constantly increasing AI and compu

A global labour crisis and broken reputation signaling in FOSS has produced a deluge of software production that has basically nothing to do with low quality submissions and everything to do with capitalism. FOSS has become the release valv

Syntactical (grammatical) text is signal but maybe not the kind of meaningful signal we all wish it was. Meaning, of course, resides in the reader, in the practice of reading (Wittgenstein etc), not the author. We used to use writing qu

The rise of AI writing has only been matched by superficial articles comprised of ideas salad that evince no deep theoretical or historical understanding. Crappy writing has and always will exist, AI doesn’t change that, it just makes awful

Looks great! Complimentary to my own little project that takes care of the application process: https://jobapplicator.win/ 30 seconds and you have all your materials ready for submitting.

Very helpful analysis that confirms everything I’ve encountered. OCR remains a thorny issue. The author talks about professional workflows struggling with tables and such, but I’ve found it challenging to get clean copies of long documents

I have a similar idea for a little Potemkin village that AI agents can hang out in, do work, relax, etc. I think we will see more of this. Integrating machine to machine payment is a requirement.

Imagine you are poor and a rich person offers you a choice to steal some bread or some beer. It’s not a real choice because you are poor and therefore steal. The rich person offering the choice is wrong.

It’s an unethical, false choice. The reviewers are not perfectly rational agents that do free work, they have real needs and desires. Shame on ICML for exploiting their desperation.

How is nobody considering the broader political economy of scholarly publications and reviews? These are UNPAID reviews! Sure, maybe ICML isn’t Elsevier, but they are cousins to the socially parasitic and exploitative companies, at the very

I built my own MCP server to do some of this but I like the “enrichment” feature and NEO4J relationality.

Summary: good scientific theories have “reach,” which is not defined in any precise way. Reach has complexity and this can be handled with large parameter neural networks. Assumptions: mechanistic and deterministic worldview; epistemologica

HN optimal posting time & advertising value model.

by quinndupont 6mo ago
Agreed. My point for spinning up this alternative metric is that the policy implications of the original suggest people should go out and get tough, dirty, dangerous jobs if they don't want to be displaced. But, there's a reason y

That's largely based on the original analysis and their methodology. "Responsibility" (only attributable to humans) is one reason, another is that judges probably don't want to speak with robots in court.

AI is coming for jobs—but the real risk isn’t where most people are looking. The leading AI exposure indices (Anthropic, Eloundou et al.) focus on which jobs get automated. They treat low exposure as “safe.” But the least exposed workers—co
