Yeah... I think I'm going to stay off twitter for a while. If you need to contact me, you can find my e-mail.

@PatrickKidger @stylewarning I agree that Julia has a number of glaring flaws, but Enzyme(.jl) is great for AD as far as I've seen.

Also: Julia's GPGPU ecosystem is second-to-none. It's the only language that provides array-level abstractions to interface with any GPU vendor (including Metal).

I often prefer to read math than to watch videos on it, especially in reviewing material. For anyone who feels the same, there are now written/illustrated versions of the linear algebra series, thanks to the help of Kurt Bruns.

I'm thinking about making the "Leios Licence" for my work.

It's 100% open source or Creative Commons, but expressly disallows non-human entities (AI) from using the work.

Authors / content creators should have the right to have their work protected.

Also, there's the copyright issue.

Courts have yet to decide whether generated AI images are actually in the public domain or not. It's really unlikely that anyone who writes the prompt will have copyright, which means that this technology is efectively dead for "real" projects.

[James Schloss @LeiosOS]

I guess nothing will then.

I'm still waiting to be impressed by AI. This is honestly close and I expect to be impressed soon, but not quite yet.

[Marques Brownlee @MKBHD]

Every single one of these videos is AI-generated, and if this doesn't concern you at least a little bit, nothing will

It's the same with ChatGPT and Copilot. Every single time I try to use them for anything, I just get frustrated and spend more time editing the output than I would have spent just making the thing to begin with

@ChrisRackauckas @theabhimanyu For the record, KA is great, imo.

I had some issues at the start, but my core issues were with Julia, itself, not KA. In fact, KA helped me get around some of the issues in base as I could override the problematic code.

[James Schloss @LeiosOS]

@typedfemale I didn't mean any harm in the stream and am really positive towards julia 90% of the time.

I just wanted to let my community know that I might be using other languages for a bit. I thought the title and thumbnail effectively conveyed that message.

Today we're kicking off the third Summer of Math Exposition, SoME3. It's an event to encourage more people to create online math explanations, with prizes and a chance to have your work surfaced to a larger audience.

New video covering results of the summer of math exposition, where I highlight four criteria for what I think makes a math video (or article) great.

The @3blue1brown Summer of Math Exposition (2) is now officially over! Thanks to everyone for participating!

Just a reminder that unpartnered / unaffiliated streams on twitch do not get ads.

I already got my ballot and voted!

Besides being utterly, obviously, and cruelly false, this kind of premature surrender is a horrible way to encourage everyone to get their bivalent boosters, which is something we desperately need, and all but guarantees the funding we need for prevention & treatment will vanish

... Yes, there is still one more step to be done, but I'm not "in charge" of that part.

[James Schloss @LeiosOS]

Well, that's a wrap on the Summer of Math Exposition Peer Review for 2022.

It's been a genuine pleasure to run this event again this year and I'm looking forward to it next year!
