I worked with Edward Kmett for a few years.

He wore out the vim movement keys on a mac laptop keyboard in four months.

By "wore out" I mean he had worn the plastic down to the keyswitches, in FOUR MONTHS.

We once had an emergency production outage and Kmett got more productive as he stayed up later. At about 36 hours he fixed the problem. I fell over asleep, he fixed other problems he'd found during the investigation.

I have lots more Ed stories, but this output you question does not surprise me.

The original article from Gamers Nexus says they upload saved audio when an internet connection is restored.

I got to meet Jef Raskin in the early 2000s when he gave a talk in Sweden.

He was a fun person to chat with, lots of great ideas and the drive to work out the details.

Curse Tablets are early LLM skills?

After decades of dealing with Elsevier, Springer-Verlag and the rest; I hope they all go out of business.

I go to the library, farmer's markets, do group classes at the gym, and join groups that match my interests.

I'm the same way. I require people time, and work from home wears me down.

I saw this used to obfuscate spam yesterday! Yay?

I think the solution is to launder all research papers through LLMs so the papers are no longer copyrightable, and let the rich journal owners fight with the LLM owners.

I've read lots about content defined chunking and recently heard about monoidal hashing. I haven't tried it yet, but monoidal hashing reads like it would be all around better, does anyone know why or why not?

I suspect the H pattern they mean is where the gear shift is on the steering column, not on the floor. I long ago owned a 1945 Dodge truck with that shifting setup.
