It was created to teach me the concept of love-hate relationships

Congratulations!!

I love seeing the creative ways people implement these types of, if I can say, high level abstractions in C. Thanks for sharing

When I look at how AI and LM systems, sw, platforms, have been built over the last decade (and are still being built), I can't help but to think that what really every mattered was the response the system produced.

Never mind the quality or if it's even going to work in production.

And maybe that's all that's needed, I don't really know.

I'm sure that's just me being the old curmudgeon of a software engineer I am, wishing people thought about more than one user using a system and 2 engineers supporting it.

oh super cool, and creative (IMO). Love it, thanks!

This is pretty great, thank you!

I didn't know about these types of tasks (N-Back) and this was a nice introduction to it.

This is awesome, thanks :D

I didn't even know there were companies doing work in the "blockchain services" space. Kinda cool, tech begets tech, begets tech.

Love the C++ work, btw

Congrats! Great stuff

Building from the success of the Toronto user group, CppNorth will bring together local and visiting speakers for three days filled with opportunities to learn, network and discover what is new in the C++ community.

So many amazing board games out there

Things like this give me hope for human creativity. Made my day, thanks

What a great story!

I was introduced to it by The Hugonauts podcast. Have a great audio rendering of it[0]. I went into it not knowing anything about the book or the author and was really surprised to find out it was written over 100 years ago.

> The company said artificial intelligence-related productivity gains were a factor in the layoffs. CrowdStrike said it plans to continue hiring in strategic areas.

Love the idea, keep up the work and I think this can be really be something between a "standard web search engine" and WolframAlpha

Really cool, thanks for sharing. Very original indeed.

This is gold, thanks for the links! Really good

Amazing, congratulations!

As a software engineer, I really hope that will be the case :) Thanks for the reply!

Great post and Naur's paper is really great. What I can't help stop thinking is of the many other cases where something should-not-be because being is less than ideal, and yet, they insist on being. In other words, LLMs should not be able to largely replace programmers and yet, they might.

I love initiatives like this one. Thanks for working on it.

Is Trump’s presidential reign turning the US into an oligarchy? Or did the US fall into oligarchic rule many years ago? In episode 127 of Overthink, David and Ellie dive into what an oligarchy looks like, the dangers of a country’s power being in the hands of the wealthy few, and whether or not oligarchic rule is new for the US. They look to the ancient Greeks for ideas on which form of government is conducive to the good life and explore how Aristotle’s notion of pleonexia relates to the current state of the US. Your hosts investigate how oligarchy morphs into tyranny, and try to answer the question, “How can we resist an oligarchy?” In the bonus, Ellie and David look at the four different types of oligarchy discussed by Jeffrey Winters.
