there's a real fork here. there's a complex fork here. there's a quaternion fork here. there's an octonion fork here. there's a rational fork here. there's an imaginary fork here. there's a transcendental fork here. there's a computable fork here. there's a hypperreal fork here. there's a p-adic for

this seems true if we say that a constant function = infinite radius of curvature = maximal bouba. but then a dirac comb fourier transforms to itself, so what does that mean? it's a bouba-kiki hybrid? boubiki? are gaussians and all the other hermite functions boubiki also?

sorry claude, the GPU poverty *is* the fork. it's non-large-load-bearing.

this apparently well-capitalized neuromorphic AI startup was not on my radar, interesting. (seemingly no spikes in this model though) unconv.ai/blog/introdu...

it's not modern sports until you can bet on it all and the AI researchers are getting death threats from gamblers because new model benchmarks aren't as good as expected

got a tangled local appview up and running, currently working with Opus 4.8 to try to get LaTeX rendering working via mathjax. some pre-existing CSS rule is adding display: block to all SVGs, gotta fix that first

I can never remember the ordering between \Big and \bigg, this just bit me again

I've spent months rethinking and rebuilding my programming languages course from scratch for the agentic coding era. I wrote myself a memo explaining what I'm doing. I figure others might be interested in the redesign, so here goes! Feedback welcome of course. docs.google.com/document/d/e...

The Thermo Fisher situation keeps getting worse. We've now collected 450+ problematic images presented as verification data in TF's antibody catalog. This includes: 🖌️ Dozens more images with duplications or painting 🖨️ Hundreds of blots that all share the same background (behold slideshow below)

strategic weirdo reserve, who's building this?

this might be the best model i can currently run locally on my relatively GPU poor setup (12 GB RTX 3060) with this kind of speed. working well so far, but I haven't properly stress tested it yet

was planning to use the AMD FPGA tools for a new project, but AMD made the Linux version of Vivado/Vitis 2026.1 not free ($1200/year for a node-locked license). the Windows version of Vivado/Vitis 2026.1 is free, or you could use 2025.2.1 forever, but actually switching to OSS seems like the move

Fantastic (long) piece on what AU means to mathematics (and what mathematics is) So many insights. The first begins why so may people in AI research are getting obsessed with “taste”. davidbessis.substack.com/p/the-fall-o...

the next upgrade is to port this into iconic arithmetic, so we can rewrite in container expressions: eml(x,y) = (x) <[y]> and have a fully iconic way to express All The Math
