i’ve been using claude for all things home-related and it’s amazing. (just dump all files in and let claude index, summarize, and organize.) even better than being a repository of all receipts, it helps me maintain a spreadsheet that i can download and send to accountants, draft emails for correspondence with service providers, and proactively flag issues that i wouldn’t have realized otherwise. Quoting @money_cruncher Open a new gmail as soon as you buy a house (123house@gmailcom) Then save/forward every single receipt, invoice, quote etc to this email for all your home improvements: - replacing an entire roof - new flooring - new hvac system - building a new deck - etc These improvements raise your cost basis,… Anthropic Related

Their words
it's always weird to me just how much software engineers really seem to believe that the world exists in the repo. It doesn't. It's production, you know?

AI research engineer working on large language models. He writes the Ahead of AI newsletter and is the author of Build a Large Language Model (From Scratch).
Just saw that the LLMs-from-scratch repository passed 100,000 stars on GitHub! This is super cool and motivating. I am really happy to see that this open-source repo has helped so many people. Thanks also to everyone who shared ideas and opened PRs with improvements! Of course, I plan to keep adding new material, including new attention variants and architectures (while bigger projects like RL and Reasoning From Scratch live in their separate repositories). I am also currently working on a larger applied custom “small” LLM project. It has been keeping me super busy this month, but I will shar… LLMs Related

open source
Their words
You know, there's open source and there's open development. And and and we were technically open source in the beginning, but it was not open development. We would sort of lob the source code out in this repository and scrape the issues off of that and put it into our internal issue tracker.

I am slowly trying to figure out Nix/NixOS. I just realized something I'm very confused by: Is it really the case “pinning’ in NixOS prototypically means “pinning a single version of the entire package repository, and then pulling in whatever versions it contains”? I mean, "it's all just code" and it seems to be *possible* to mix and match via `fetchTarball`. But is pinning the universe as-a-unit really the normal pattern? Nix Related

Historian of invention; writes Age of Invention on where the Industrial Revolution actually came from.
Their words
Just as in the sciences it is considered good practice to make one’s data available, in history it should perhaps be a requirement to upload to some public repository the photographs or transcriptions of any cited archival sources that are not otherwise freely accessible online.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
