Folks always sneer dismissively whenever life gives them lemons, and I always think to myself that we actually crossbred the fruit ourselves using bitter oranges and citron so it's kind of our own fault, really.

The fact that the service fails on one of the last beautiful sunny days in Seattle doesn't give me much hope that they'll keep things running in the middle of a hurricane. Thank goodness for coffeehouse wifi.

Interesting bit on how data auditing pipelines and workflows helped some of the cycling teams during the recent Olympics.
Did you see @TeamGB win gold at the @Paris2024 Olympics? Tune in to ep. 19 of Generationship with @stefkrawczyk to hear how the British cycling team uses the @hamilton_os framework to help with velodrome telemetry analysis. bit.ly/3MyfNnn

People have an egocentric view of success and failure. They totally ignore the importance of relationships. Relationships cause bias, but they also amplify one's own strength and abilities in ways that appear intrinsic and personal.

My first thought was that cache was slow and possibly IO bound if it were my first time here.

Survivorship bias as a meme is so meta.
I think this image is fake data. It's not from Wald's original paper. The dot pattern suggests WWII bombers are extremely vulnerable in the rear of the fuselage and nose, which doesn't seem plausible.

I keep thinking Seattle could solve housing the way London did.

There's always a level of beauty in physics that would make Disney and Miyazaki blush.
NASA's supercomputer simulations are so consistently filthy

Affordable housing designed by Costco would probably be better than it had any right to be.

AI : what’s green and has wheels? Me: I don’t know AI: grass. I lied about the wheels thing.

Sure you may have gotten a PhD, started a company, got married and had a wonderful child, but let me ask you... have you ever gotten a critical slope pin pile retaining wall project approved through the Mercer Island City Planning Committee? That, my friends, is the true test.

The new interpretability paper from Anthropic is totally based. Feels like analyzing an alien life form. If you only read one 90-min-read paper today, it has to be this one transformer-circuits.pub/202…

Living in Seattle means going from being whiny about not having enough sun to being whiny about too much sun on the same 15 minute drive home. You're going to have your favorite brand of : fog lights, sunglasses, semi-legal Chinese high powered flash lights, and sun tan lotion.

History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes. I often think of an LLM as a really good poet that I would not rely on for ground truth.

Excited to get some more feedback on what we're building here with #burr. We're looking for people who want support building out their apps -- we can simplify, improve, and accelerate your work! Reach out, I'd love to chat!
📢 Say hello to #Burr! We're being a little more public about what else we've been building today. Say hi to github.com/dagworks-inc/burr (P.S. Burr in our world complements @hamilton_os 😉) Thread:

It would be great to have a speed comparison of mlx vs. huggingface inference for contrastive multimodal models. Both in the execution time, and in the "how do I get this thing working" time.
MLX is the most exciting thing that happened in the local AI scene. I sense we’ve not even scratched the tip of the iceberg in terms of discovering its full potential! Andrej, please make a video of it! 🔥
