Well, in 1957, BBC Panorama aired a 3min segment how Swiss farmers harvest spaghetti from trees.

This is the way.

I think, the web was killed before by human slob search engines can't or won't filter. Now we find out, a little longer prompt in an AI chat returns better results. So what?

> changing things may have unintended consequences.

Proved by reality, that's why they propose to reduce or even undo human emissions.

Well, considering the impact current models already have now, these are good news.

Did anybody already let o3 crack Bongard Problems? o1 did not convince: https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.19546

Well, the value is obvious for romantically involved people not sharing a language, when the batteries run empty. :)

I've started to finish some abandoned half-ready side projects with Claude Pro on Desktop with filesystem MCP. Used to high quality code, it took me some time to teach Claude to follow conventions. Now it works like a charm, we work on a requirements.md until all questions are answered and then I let Claude go. Only thing left is convincing clients to embrace code assistents.

The thought that organisms sharing environments could avoid communication appears absurd to me.

Metabolic byproducts, chemical gradients, and behavioral patterns automatically transmit information. Physical proximity creates mandatory information channels.

Environmental sharing makes communication inevitable, not optional.

As Niels Bohr's said: "Physics is not about how the world is, but about what we can say about the world,..."

I feel you and would personally pay a bit more for LLMs trained on 'senior code'.

I agree, frustration steps in earlier than before because AIs tell you very eagerly that unique thought is already part of its training data. Sometimes I wish one could put an AI on drugs and filter out some hallucinations that'll become main stream next week.

There is still a computer involved, from an AI I expect it convinces me no program is needed and I should go walking in the forest instead. If anybody complains the AI will manage them by mail.

I like the Mac integration and all the features in the menu. Did I miss bigger fonts somewhere?

Can confirm, runs straight forward on 15.4.1@M4, THX.

The demo page does fancy stuff when marking text and hitting cmd-d to create a bookmark :)

~14GB, needs login, works with some federated accounts.

I'm no member of the scientific community but I fear this project or another will go beyond math errors and eventually establish some kind of incontrovertible AI entity giving a go/nogo on papers. Ending all science in the process because publishers will love it.

Had to ask Claude for a summary in simple terms. Is this allowed here?

This paper proposes a new approach to understanding gravity by connecting it to concepts from statistical mechanics and information theory. Here's a breakdown of the key ideas:

The author, Ginestra Bianconi, develops a theory where:

1. Spacetime geometry is treated as a quantum object, specifically as an "effective density matrix" 2. Matter fields are described topologically using what's called a "Dirac-Kähler formalism" 3. The interaction between matter and geometry is captured through a mathematical concept called "quantum relative entropy"

The theory introduces a "G-field" that serves as a link between matter and geometry. When this mathematical framework is developed, it produces modified Einstein equations that:

- Reduce to standard Einstein equations in certain conditions - Generate a small positive cosmological constant (potentially explaining dark energy) - Result in second-order equations that might avoid certain mathematical problems

The potential impacts of this work include:

- Providing new insights into quantum gravity (combining quantum mechanics and general relativity) - Offering a possible explanation for dark matter through the properties of the G-field - Creating a mathematical framework that connects geometry, information theory, and quantum mechanics

The paper builds on the author's previous work but extends it to a fully continuous, Lorentz-invariant theory that can describe real physics in four-dimensional spacetime.

Is there something special about Lisp and Primes?

Objective truth - where do you find that?

Roasted: When you write JavaScript, it's like poetry — except when it's prose. Then it's just code.

Just put on the Android in the EU, starts in English, asks for hobbies and plays an endless stream of bilingual heart warming welcome videos for the American friends.

It's JavaScript and exposes an extensive API via console: https://github.com/anvaka/city-roads/blob/main/API.md#loadin...

What about the efficiency to remove entropy? Is there a threshold our combined efforts called science cannot surpass?

Do we need Frank Herbert’s spice to progress?

I think actually it's not about faster, it's about more efficient. Looking at the rate of improvement here of recent decades, we should've had a 4 day work week long ago. It should even have allowed more people to not work at all and help to make their local community e.g. more human.

Instead the wealth accumulates in places unreachable for 99% of us.

If your program starts spanning multiple machines or awaits user input CPS becomes a topic. At first it's scary, after a while you just assume everything is async.

I think the real question is does the player get shot from behind?

Just an idea, can't you just swap staging and production? So, actually the system you've tested goes live by switching nothing more than a pointer (no deployment involved).

Won't raising support cost at some point suggest it's cheaper having two swappable live systems than the alternative?
