People don't understand Napoleon's insane IQ. Napoleon once spotted a shipment of boots missing in an army of 500,000 troops. Napoleon once recalled 2 cannons missing from formation of 500 of them. Napoleon would read for 12 hours straight on the most abstruse subjects. Napoleon had a custom library designed to take with him on campaign. Napoleon would dictate and read letters while taking baths. Napoleon would kick his counselors awake when they started falling asleep at 2 in the morning. You are very likely not operating at Napoleon's level. When you study the greats of history you really realize the true level of genius that these people operate at.
this is so fun
Below: an LLM loop is hooked into the Lisp REPL, and the LLM adds functions to the REPL as needed. These functions persist across application restarts.
Instead of the entire read_file + edit_file + bash compile loop, it's now just prompt functionality in the application as it runs.
Un pequeño acróbata de los bosques japoneses.
La ardilla voladora enana japonesa utiliza una membrana entre sus patas para planear de árbol en árbol, recorriendo grandes distancias sin tocar el suelo. Sus enormes ojos le permiten desenvolverse en la oscuridad.
I have plenty of worries, but the coolest thing by far about the LLM era for PL research has been the ease with which we can now make tools that are actually usable. Used to have no time for really nice VSCode plugins and whatnot, but that stuff is perfect for Claude Code
真是醍醐灌顶啊,什么是游戏:自愿尝试克服不必要的障碍 The voluntary attempt to overcome unnecessary obstacles,更简单点可以叫“乐于没苦硬吃”。从这个定义出发,很多事情都是游戏啊,个人爱好其实也是一样的,都是在玩嘛。为什么知之者不如好之者,好之者不如乐之者,因为乐之者是是当游戏在玩。
