Could you elaborate please? For those of us not familiar with Wittgenstein's work, could you link to sources depicting before and after his views changed, preferably with summaries.

Would you mind sharing your answer?

I believe GP is "grandparent", referring to the post that the post you're replying to replied to. As if the reply is a descendent, and you're a descendent of the reply.

Probably meant "of late"

Slightly OT, but when you edit code in the REPL this way using conditions/restarts, how do you avoid getting your code out of sync with the REPL's state? It seems with a long-running REPL, you eventually run into:

- Out of order execution means we don't know what order our code should be run in to achieve the current state

- If we run some code in the REPL and never save it in a file, then our state is also out of sync

- Finally, if we redefine some code, there's no way the state can be in sync with the code if started from the beginning

How do Common Lispers typically deal with these issues for a REPL that's been running for days or weeks, short of just saving the image and never turning it off?

Worth noting is that stochastic computing devices would make reproducible experiments more difficult. For R&D, that's not a trivial thing to throw away. Indeed, one of JAX's motivations is finer control of pseudo-randomness for reproducibility of experiments.

What are the advantages of GA over regular linear algebra in practice? Can you create better neural nets or faster graph search algorithms? What is the draw, computationally?

The privacy policy / terms is clear that while they don't share data with third parties, they help themselves to the data for their own models. Misleading of them to leave that off in their FAQ. And it's opt-out, not opt-in.

They compared human cells to mouse cells, showing improved performance for the human cells.

I'm suggesting, yes, as someone who was interested in magic tricks growing up.

I find the explanation that he's acting to be an even better explanation.

He's swapping billets and claiming the swapped billet is what Simon originally wrote. Simon is amazed because he was just told he would find himself confused, and he is, since the fake billet is written in his handwriting (forged). Which is the simpler explanation, sleight of hand and handwriting forgery, or hypnotic memory implantation spanning several days?

I believe it's now Generation Alpha.

I've found YouTube Music to be quite good!

I'd love to read your PhD thesis and papers! I'm also an AI researcher, currently doing a Master's in something else, but compositionality and representation learning is very interesting to me.

His Lis.py is also wonderful.

What's your favorite resource for learning mindfulness?

It's called subvocalization: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subvocalization.

I've never made a comment on HN commenting on someone else's tone, but I've seen this exact response, word for word, a lot recently on many posts. I don't like this trend. I find it to be adversarial and in bad faith. Suppose they did read the article. Are they likely to reply to you defending themselves? Next time, please address the actual content of their comment instead.

What do you mean by uncensorable? What does censorship have to do with sanctions hurting innocent economic participants?

What do you consider to be the difference between identity and Identity? Or other and Other?

It's possible that, like Eliza, Lamda is borrowing the author's style while talking about a niche topic.

Pretty sure he's being funny by pretending to be breathlessly excited about something false.

I try to develop/debug with non-JITed code and JIT as late in development as possible.

I can assure you that my family dog, at least, definitely has strong food preferences. Even things that hurt her stomach if she eats too much, like popcorn or broccoli. Her favorite food is chicken and rice, cooked exactly like you would for a human. Maybe food doesn't really get old for her, but I think a desire for novelty is separate from having strong appreciation for the taste of food.

Fair enough. I was thinking of Plato's recounting of Socrates complaining about the proliferation of writing reducing young people's ability to remember things.

And the Boomers had hippy subculture. Was everyone a hippy? Plato complained about young people in his time too. For reference, I'm part of Gen Z, and no one I know doesn't want to work. It's just that everyone wants meaningful work. This article is ridiculous and unfairly generalizing.

Perhaps because dust storms would ruin the rotors?

This was my experience when I watched and rewatched the anime film Spirited Away over the years. It is a fantastic film, to be sure, but I hadn't realized how much he borrowed from the existing culture of Japan until I learned more about Japanese religion and culture generally. It wasn't wholly invented myth, as it appeared to me as an American child.
