I'm curious why Zed chose Blade over wgpu/wgpu-hal.

There's a bit of detail here: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/7015

But I'd be curious to read a longer writeup on the tradeoffs and how they came to their decision.

The organization behind QT (QT Group) has pretty onerous licensing terms.

My understanding is that it's $3,950 per year just to develop using their libraries on your own computer if you ever in the future intend to commercialize your project using QT. Transitioning from the open source license to the commercial license is something you can do but it's not the happy path according to their FAQ.

My understanding is that some of the QT libraries or older forked versions of them are still completely under open source licenses but it seems like a very complicated situation if you have commercial aspirations with your project.

Something like Slint (Rust based but includes CPP and JS bindings) is not as comprehensive (yet) but it's more modern and the licensing terms are significantly more in line with software industry norms.

GPUI from Zed is also something to monitor: https://www.gpui.rs/

Also, in general you can find an extensive list of Rust-based native UI libraries here: https://areweguiyet.com/

This is the weights and the model under Apache 2.0 license. What do you mean by open-source?

This is another video on grass rendering but in the style of Ghost of Tsushima: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bp7REZBV4P4

Would recommend checking out mise. It's a newer clone of asdf. I switched due to bugs I was running into with using asdf to manage versions of python.

This looks awesome. Congrats on the launch

Complementary medicine (also called integrative medicine) means diet, exercise, and supplement regimens.

What you’re saying is nonsense.

All major cancer centers have a department of Integrative or Complementary medicine.

Here is Stanford’s: https://stanfordhealthcare.org/medical-clinics/integrative-m...

Complementary medicine means diet, exercise, and supplement regimens.

Denying that diet has an impact on health is very strange.

You shouldn’t be downvoted for this. These are all examples of supplements that a complimentary medicine specialist at a cancer center could or would recommend for a patient in addition to chemo.

Different studies show different efficacies but these things are recommended to patients.

I highly recommend the book Life Over Cancer by Keith Block and reaching out to his cancer treatment center. They combine traditional chemo with complimentary medicine techniques that are in line with what you’re talking about here (low glycogenic diet, exercise, supplements). They are amazing.

The Block Center does high dose intravenous Vitamin C as part of their chemo+complementary regimen.

Revitalizing the teaching of the classics within schools would be a good first step.

Subsidizing affluence and 'alleviating' poverty tend to go hand in hand.

The patron/client relationship between the upper class and lower class is a very common structure of societies.

History shows it is impossible to alleviate poverty by material means while not also subsidizing affluence. Any use of the state to redistribute wealth for any end (no matter how noble in theory) always ends up with wealth transfer to the upper class.

The only way to alleviate poverty and avoid subsidizing affluence is with good governance that administers genuine justice and seeks to elevate the human spirit.

From the paper:

>It is important to note that the concept of GPTrillion and its capabilities are entirely fictional and were created as an April Fools joke for the AI community. GPTrillion does not actually exist, and the claims made in this paper are not based on any real experiments or data

It’s actually as low as 0.01% of the original weights.

From the LoRa paper:

>When the pre-trained model is GPT-3 175B, the number of train- able parameters |Θ| can be as small as 0.01% of |Φ0|.

Low Rank Adaption is a mathematical technique, it's not a technology standard

This prompt works best with GPT 4. GPT 3.5 gives inconsistent results. There might be a way of improving the prompt for 3.5

The web app also has built in support for LaTeX rendering (it uses KaTeX). See this forum post: https://community.openai.com/t/new-feature-properly-shown-ma...

You can get ChatGPT to output conforming LaTeX expressions using the following prompt:

Could you please use the specific LaTeX math mode delimiters for your response?

LaTex math mode specific delimiters as following

1. inline math mode : `\(` and `\)`

2. display math mode: insert linebreak after opening `$$`, `\[` and before closing `$$`, `\]`

I built a service for reading RSS feeds on your Kindle in their newspaper format. As far as I know, I went the farthest compared to any competing service in terms of reproducing the format exactly with the highest fidelity and full feature set (it required a lot of time and stubborn effort to reverse engineer it).

Unfortunately it seems like they are discontinuing support for using the Send-to-Kindle functionality for .mobi files and I hadn't really been able to devote attention to it given some other things I had to attend to so it's now defunct.

If anyone has anymore information on the status of loading .mobi files onto a Kindle, I'd be interested to hear about it.
