+1 for Archipelago

OMG I just installed it! Great to see.

I believe it’s the “don’t stuff beans up your nose” effect, writing this prompt is causing it to mention goblins

Bravo. The farthest i could get is 2/3 assuming the following model: x₁ is a random number between 0 and 1, x₂ between x₁ and 1, and so on. If the service breaks at x₁, gets fixed at x₂, breaks again at x₃, etc. availability is 2/3.

Luna is a very common transfem name

I also had a computer not boot. Tried installing windows 11 but the iso does not include network card drivers and requires a second drive that has them. I just happened to have another but it malfunctioned. Was assured IT would fix it but it still doesn’t boot. :(

Thank you for the links

Junk theorems in Lean are laughably bad due to type coercions.

Those look suspicious… I mean when you consider that the set of propositions is given a topology and an order, “The set {z : ℝ | z ≠ 0} is a continuous, non-monotone surjection.” doesn’t seem so ridiculous after all. Similarly the determinant of logical operations gains meaning on a boolean algebra. Zeta(1) is also by design. It does start getting juicy around “2 - 3 = +∞” and the nontransitive equality and the integer interval.

The flipside to that quote is that computer programs are useful tools for mathematicians. See the mersenne prime search, OEIS and its search engine, The L-function database, as well as the various python scripts and agda, rocq, lean proofs written to solve specific problems within papers. However, not everything is perfect: throwing more compute at the problem is a bad solution in general; the stereotypical python script hacked together to serve only a purpose has one-letter variable names and redundant expressions, making it hard to review. Throw in the vibe coding over it all, and that’s pretty much the extent of what I mean.

I apologize if anything is confusing, I’m not great at communication. I also have yet to apply to a mathematics uni, so maybe this is all manageable in practice.

The developer of an LLM image description service for the fediverse has (temporarily?) turned it off due to concerns from a blind person.

Good for them

Yes, they are trying to automate releases.

sidenote: I don’t like how taking an approach of mediocre software engineering to mathematics is becoming more popular. Update your dependency (whose code you never read) to v0.4.5 for bug fixes! Why was it incorrect in the first place? Anyway, this blog post sets some good rules for reviewing computer proofs. The second-to-last comment tries to argue npm-ification is good actually. I can’t tell if satire

Vibe coding would go just great in a theorem prover

clanker’s dozen

Does this mean calibre’s use case is a digital equivalent of a shelf of books you never read?

I tried using Fluidsynth only to find that drums don’t work. I looked around on github and found that they are toying with copilot to fix a related issue and that vibe code has already been merged 🙃

Linus: All those years of screaming at developers for subpar code quality and yet doesn’t use that energy for literal slop

lord, this is so cursed, especially the gambling (though you could say all vibe coding is gambling, ha)

Lol at the sealion in that thread

I’m running Hyprland on my Framework 13 (not doing omarchy cause I’m a NixOS fan,

of course

Thanks, i don’t speak english natively
