@theo You successfully baited me prior to this reply. I don’t know how I feel now.

@MasterTimBlais What is, very specifically, your definition of the word? In words. Mine is (stolen from Google) “the state of being aware of one's surroundings, internal thoughts, and subjective experiences.”

[Jack Lippold @CaptainAppJack]

@lafaiel It’s good practice for the n1x

[Jack Lippold @CaptainAppJack]

@gregpr07 I think it’s analogous to system 1 / system 2 thinking

@joseph_h_garvin @jagunanthi And the neuron’s in your brain are doing? I know it’s not matrix multiplication but it is non linear activation of connections…

@ben__bradley @yacineMTB This is solving cart pole. Everything else is overfitting on the physics engine of choice.

[Jack Lippold @CaptainAppJack]

@ukboomers @Officially_MK_ Because those key presses are of little consequence. Everyone knows important decisions are made by quill and wax seal.

@mandylu It’s as satisfying as you are willing to accept compression is equivalent to comprehension. So to most, deeply unsatisfying.

@g_br_l @yacineMTB What’s the wind like? I’ll bring flops

[Jack Lippold @CaptainAppJack]

@mfranz_on No coil wind. Not trying hard enough

I need someone to invent a new word. Maximising engineering discipline without constraining token throughput in anyway. It’s tokenmaxing but with a maniacal obsession for correctness. @unclebobmartin is the stereotype I’m getting at. But many layers of abstraction up. ToC for X

[Jack Lippold @CaptainAppJack]

@jaga_prasanna @negligible_cap Let’s say 1M tokens at $25 saves you 10 minutes. Efficient? Helll naw brother. 10 minutes saved. Assuming you can afford tokens, time is all you have to spend. Spend it wisely.

[Jack Lippold @CaptainAppJack]

@ThePrimeagen *YOU cannot. Jury is still out on if [recursive self improving loop] it can be achieved. Given how many times we’ve had to move the bar. It’d be brave to say never.

[Jack Lippold @CaptainAppJack]

I’m outside of distribution. Bite me.

@johncrickett @abenz_mato I think prompting a task is good practice of this skill. I know some excellent ‘brute force engineers’, the people I’d give my hardest problems to, but ask them how A -> B and they shrug. I’m failing to express the phenomenon i see, but they’re a thing. They dont use/like AI

[Jack Lippold @CaptainAppJack]

@unclebobmartin This is as opposed to? Working with people… god forbid.

@PdroPM @Windows Sparkles on the search icon and an always on literal word your brain will read 1000 times a day… distractions.
