• Calculus Made Easy

  So starting basically from "zero" in order to learn the prerequisites before learning what you actually want to learn on your own can feel daunting at times. But I think taking shortcuts will result in frustration. So, here I am taking algebra courses on YT with 38 years.

• Embeddings are a good starting point for the AI curious app developer

  Without getting into any big debates about whether or not RAG is medium-term interesting or whatever, you can ‘pip install sentence-transformers faiss’ and just immediately start having fun. I recommend using straightforward cosine similarity to just crush the NYT’s recommender as a fun project for two reasons: there’s an API and plenty of corpus, and it’s like, whoa, that’s better than the New York Times.

• Imgur Is About to Wipe a Ton of Porn From the Internet

  Maybe if reddit manages to kill itself, one of the decentralized projects like diaspora will expand. Source: 12 months ago

• Twitter will remove accounts created solely to promote other social platforms

  I remember making similar comments about Diaspora vs Facebook a decade ago, but people are... lazy. Yeah, let's go with lazy. Source: over 1 year ago

• Stop

  To be fair, its not Mastodon, its the #Fediverse. Mastodon is arguably the least rich platfrom on the 'verse. IMHO Friendica is where its at, and you can still communicate with all the twitter refugees on Mastodon, as well as meater content on services likeDiaspora*, not to mention full integration with Lemmy (which works fairly similar to Reddit) while Masto you can see lemmy posts and replies without having to...
