Yea, that's what I was trying to get at. It is not deterministic because the interpretation is the point. It is how the learner integrates the material. If you don't interpret, then you're not learning, you're just memorizing.

A teacher should therefore embrace the fuzzy nature of explaining concepts.

> explaining concepts while leaving little room for different interpretation is hard

To play devil's advocate: explaining concepts while leaving little room for different interpretation is also pointless. If you don't care about the interlocutor's interpretation, then why are you even talking to them? If the task is really deterministic, then automate it.

Nope, at least the Berlin shop is on RFID on all products.

> I would expect that China would activate their dormant ICS and telco access in such a circumstance to knock the US out of the conflict basically immediately

If they could do this, wouldn't they already have moved on Taiwan?

That's nice if you're starting from scratch, but if you have existing code to deal with, you don't have the privilege of ignoring the insane subset.

Claude Code already does this, you can access it with /resume, /rewind and /fork. I'd imagine building a version that saves in the repo instead of in the home folder would take very minimal effort.

I'm using it on a large set of existing codebases full of extremely ugly legacy code, weird build systems, tons of business logic and shipping directly to prod at neckbreaking growth over the last two years, and it's delivering the same type of value that Karpathy writes about.

If you watch the demo video you can see how they would get this: the model is not aggressive enough. While it doesn't cut you off, which is nice, it also always waits an uncanny amount of time to chime in.

I hate to be the first one commenting to say this, but here it goes: the flashy LLM writing style, "Apple Event Dialect" in the README and in this comment is very recognizable and also quite irritating. If this is supposed to be boring then just state the facts and the benchmarks to prove them.

Nobody has to do anything, least of all massive corporations with country-sized revenues. It's /always/ a choice to comply or to put up a fight and deal with the consequences.

Maybe rather an interactive explanation and exploration environment with embedded programming?
