@TomHiggins42@WillManidis@patrickc the greatest contemporary novels were produced in the from of the north american poetry collection (produced from 1970s-2010s, primarily along the Connecticut river valley)
We underestimate how much "abstract" thought is just repurposed sensorimotor control circuitry. A lot of reasoning is essentially about moving through idea-space the way we move through physical space.
what if we can't figure out large model interpretability? in that world, good software becomes one of the most important activities this century, and the software vs deep-ware line for critical systems gets drawn very differently than where people might expect
ohhh a new and higher res version, albeit shorter wavelength ranges
this long review has at least a dozen other similar detectivity plots

20/ @danishabbir is building Equivariant, the multiphysics runtime for agents. He gave us a peek at their browser-first simulation agent.

Physical models shouldn't blow up, right? One reason this happens is the loss of equivariance from resampling. We mitigated this by making randomizing resampling with a simple inference-time augmentation that improves long run metrics on 17/19 PT systems.
It always blows my mind that we still don't know how to explain many seemingly very simple phenomena everyone is familiar with like why ice is slippery.
It really shows how the naive reductionist view I think most people hold intuitively, according to which the difficult part is figuring out the fundamental laws of nature but once you have that everything else more or less automatically falls into place, is completely wrong.
In truth, even after you have a pretty good idea of what the fundamental laws of nature are, most of the work to understand the world around you is still ahead of you.
@nabeelqu Different people have turned to poetry for different reasons. For some it is life long (e.g. Louise Glück's miraculous and ever-renewing career). For others, a necessity in the grief of exile (Dante). For many more, perhaps an experiment in trying to get from A to B.
@nabeelqu it was great for him to have the start that he did. he was able to do his experiment (i.e. use the ladder of language, to get to his "true life"), and then switch to a life of action. Oppen also had a long period of silence
