Thanks.

I notice that they stopped capitalizing POWER with Power10. I preferred the capitalization since it stands for "Performance Optimization With Enhanced RISC". I wonder whose idea it was to change it.


Capitalisation looks a bit old-fashioned. Memories of LISP, FORTRAN, ALGOL, COBOL, DOS, CICS, IMS, MVS, VM/CMS... Even FORTRAN and LISP are normally Fortran and Lisp nowadays.


I **LOVE** ALL of your content!!!


for me rescuetime.com and hubstaff have helped in terms of productivity, I also have written a couple tools myself to make myself more productive over the years, vim also comes to mind, there are several ways to be more productive, one just has to care enough.

some time ago I was thinking about this issue, maybe the concept of "parametric books" will become popular in the future.

perhaps, with the advent of AI, one will be able to convert a current book into a more detailed book, and also a current book into a smaller book, so maybe this idea is even easier to implement than 4 years or so ago, before chatgpt (but after summarizers, which prompted the idea in my head).

I would humbly appreciate any feedback on the concept of parametric books, for now, it's just an idea, but it's a free one, anyone is free to implement it.

thanks in advance, for your comments on it.


was waterduck considered?


Technically, all real-life ducks are waterducks. Except when they're temporarily airducks.

I believe the plural form of person is people.


"People should always be used when a collective noun referring to the entirety of a group or nation (i.e., "the French People") is called for. For references to groups of a specific or general number, either people or persons may be used. However, modern style guides tend to prefer people where earlier guides preferred persons, especially for countable groups. "

Then again, I'm not a language prescriptivist. I post the above only to demonstrate that the use of "persons" is hardly unusual.


if you go look in the source code of the html you can see some <ASP> tags probably not rendered by the browser so in order to READ this document you have to view-source (it doesn't look that different, but it makes more sense).

“This program, print the numbers from 1 to 10 in python”

In order to run my simple program just copy paste it into your LLM, of choice and execute it

Notice that the program does what it supposed to do it is deterministic unless you use something like gpt2 and it solves the problem that I aim to solve

Dictated but not read


Yeah, I soon as I read “in a world where…” I just stopped reading, it was obviously aI made, I like ai just as much as the next guy, but it’s hard for me to force myself to read stuff that I know has been generated
