omarchy felt a bit like cheating so i redid a plain arch install and am using sway now. if im honest, its all not that far away from eachother. obsessing over configs and distros is really just a hobby that some people in the linux community take too seriously.

did they silently decrease the subscription limits on codex? (in addition to reintroducing the 5h limit?) subscription models suck so bad when they can just change the terms and make the product shittier.

moved to berlin for my bachelors and it took some time to find footing. Im not the best student but I ended up getting lucky to snag a student assistant position by applying/presenting at a summer school (targeted more toward master/phd). then that became my thesis and it dragged quite a long time, bureacracy and supervision and such. But the results were interesting and i learned a ton along the way. Im really happy I yolo applied to that program

ive been rocking my thinkpad 460s since 2018 or so, but ive just recently yolo purchased a chunky t420 for 80โ‚ฌ. I gotta say this is the best laptop ive ever used, keyboard/io is unmatched and it still runs super snappy on omarchy right now, even with only 4 gigs of ram :D AND this thing has a cd drive!

being a student is great but the tasks are really quite boring. ive worked in academia now a little bit and its genuinely much more fun to work on something real, read papers, do experiments and write. Now i have these last few exams to get through and i cant care for them like i used to. #Researchnotesfollow #Sciencenotesfollow

It seems this year is when big budget LLM players overtake independent academic mathematicians, in speed at least. The Jacobian conjecture, a lot of Erdos problems, now even the Navier Stokes millenium problem. Solved due to new model releases, all within this summer.

in math it can definitely prove statements that havent been proven before. I dont think thats the big thing though since it also writes sentences nobody has ever written before and in software it can write programs that havent been written before. Its just that the speed and scalability that has overtaken human mathematicians and programmers

Not exactly "recent", but recently dived into Guile Scheme and it has totally consumed almost all of my coding work. I used Common Lisp before but this dialect is without a doubt the best and simplest of the Lisp family.
Personally, mise is more "try in hurry" compatible. So it stuck. I have tried devenv as it seems to greatly simplify the setup. However, I had to get something done in a hurry. Tried devenv (which I installed around the time they launched) and got stuck with a load of outdated nix IIRC. So I also gave a quick try with mise, got started with fnox and it was considerably easier to get going.

hmm if i were deving this id prolly polish the ui, i see youve already made some progress, im liking it. everything on here is text and sometimes theres too many different sizes/colors/underlines next to eachother, slight visual spacings ^^ this bar with the jump-to buttons right under the drop downs is quite busy: www.pasteboard.co/8sRp7CSspeym.png and it also has this ยท character which is nowhere else and kind of ugly-thin.

they too have every incentive to exaggerate because they are selling safety and/or books on the topic. I donโ€™t believe we wonโ€™t see it coming. Any issues that will manifest will be very visible and weโ€™ll have plenty of time to mitigate their impact.

they could be making a lot more money by just working at ai firms i fear. the thing that got me worried the hacking incidents lately, huggingface etc. if the capabilities consistently outspeed the development of safety measures, and if the private arms race logic continues, i dont think this is a good spot to be in long term

turns out there is accesskeyMDN Web Docsaccesskey HTML global attribute - HTML | MDNThe accesskey global attribute provides a hint for generating a keyboard shortcut for the current element. The attribute value must consist of a single printable character (which includes accented and other characters that can be generated by the keyboard). so for now โ€˜wโ€™ works for jumping right to โ€˜writeโ€™ and โ€˜pโ€™ for posting when youโ€™re there.
