tkamat29··on On the Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize Problem
From what I understand they aren't comfortable with the Anthropic employee being an author at all, not just lead author.
tkamat29··on Claude Code gets native LSP support
That's apples to oranges then. You should use the same model between both harnesses if you want to evaluate the harnesses individually.
tkamat29··on GPT-4 gets a B on my quantum computing final exam
Eh, even when asked specifically to show it's work GPT-4 still frequently makes calculation errors. It's just one of the limitations of current LLMs, and can easily be solved by integration with Wolfram, or even just a basic calculator.
tkamat29··on Florida governor to investigate GoFundMe over Canada trucker donations
The reason Ontario (and Canada in general) is doing well is because they have a much higher vaccination rate and a healthier population in general. In the US, the high numbers of hospitalization and death are overwhelmingly unvaccinated and/or extremely unhealthy individuals. Also, comparing absolute numbers is disingenuous when the vaccination rate is so high.
tkamat29··on Ask HN: What is your spiritual practice?
The person you linked (Sam Harris) is actually one of the leading voices advocating for spirituality without religion. He wrote about it in his book Waking Up: A Guide to Spirituality Without Religion.

tkamat29··on Emacs is sexy

tkamat29··on Emacs is sexy
Emacs itself isn't sexy; the sole reason I use emacs is the power and extensibility offered by emacs lisp. If vim used elisp instead of shudders vimscript, I would use it in a heartbeat.
