Anybody in Australia these last few months would have inevitably seen people debating the Aboriginal Voice − well, we say “debating”, but unfortunately a tactic that could have easily been anticipated by Labor is that people have resorted to winning arguments by calling each other bad names: one side is racist for making laws that make distinctions based on race, and the other side is racist for not caring about Aboriginal Australians.

The Open-Source Initiative (OSI) is planning to form a definition of “Open Artificial Intelligence” (not to be confused with OpenAI, a company selling proprietary autocomplete software whose technical details only grow less open with each iteration). Unfortunately, odds of the definition requiring the release of training data are slim: the OSI’s executive director isn’t keen on the idea himself. I see libre/open-source software as a mea....

Recently, I was rereading [[hampel-robust-statistics]] and I found this quote about the difference between robust and nonparametric statistics (page 9): Robust statistics considers the effects of only approximate fulfillment of assumptions, while nonparametric statistics makes rather weak but nevertheless strict assumptions (such as continuity of distribution or independence). This statement may sound obvious. Unfortunately, facts th....

Today I released Events 0.5 . Thanks to Cailean Parker ’s contribution, we added support for the __getitem__ dunder (aka Python magic method.) This allows the calling of events from strings, thus enabling dynamic events. For instance: events = Events(tuple(f"on_{i}" for i in range(5))) for i in range(5): events[f"on_{i}"](i) The C# language provides a handy way to declare, subscribe to and fire events. In C#, an eve..

TLDR: No. No it cannot. This was admittedly a fairly stupid experiment on the face of it. ChatGPT is a decoder-only model. It shouldn’t be able to perform an image recognition task. But then again, a decoder-only model wouldn’t have been my first choice for translation or summarization either. In my experience, ChatGPT has created translations which are at least as coherent and idiomatic as Google Translate, if not more so.

On July 17, 2023 I released Apktool 2.8.0 which was a very large release that unfortunately carried some regressions with it. Little did I know that on July 19 only a few days later I would be contending with a stressful bug (feature?) from OpenJDK that took the

This weekend I wrapped up volunteering at a summer day camp for kids ages 5 to 12. The experience was a first for me, seeing a summer day camp of that type. While I’ve gone on many outdoor camping trips, I’d never experienced, neither as a participant nor as a volunteer, a summer day camp. It wasn’t really “camp”, as I’d understood the term, but more of a blitz of activities, learning, crafts, and fun for the kids within the walls of a mode..

Hi, Wann hast du das letzte Mal die Zeit vergessen? Einfach immer weiter machen. Ohne das es schwer fällt. Mit voller Konzentration. Um dich herum blendest du alles aus. Du vergisst zu essen.

Und das ist super schnell. Soll der Header etwas größer? f..


A brief look at the proposed enhancements to the Go standard library HTTP request router, net/http.ServeMux: matching on HTTP method, and supporting wildcards in matched paths.

I like to sketch, mostly with pencil and charcoal on paper. One of the first things I needed to learn was how my drawing tools and the paper interacted. What kind of mark did each level of pencil hardness make, and how was that different from charcoal? What kind of paper worked best? I did various exercises that helped me understand my own tools.  I’ve been thinking a lot about this and trying to figure out what is the equivalent for th..

Another day, another tool brought to my Emacs fingertips. A while ago, I wrote about easily copying text from desktop to mobile via QR codes . Later on, I brought it under dwim-shell-command as dwim-shell-commands-clipboard-to-qr . This time around, I needed the opposite: to scan a code from an image file. This is where zbar 's zbarimg comes in. These days, I'm mostly on macOS, so I installed via Homebrew : $ brew install zbar Th....
