the implementations have a distinctly "I wrote this at a 3 AM hackathon" vibe

The LLM handles the natural language interaction and orchestration, while the computer algebra system does what it does best ... exact symbolic manipulation.

this smells like claude :D

They link to the webapp which you can play yourself!

Wow, incredible. I told myself I’d stop waffling and just buy the next 800gb/s mini or studio to come out, so I guess I’m getting this.

Not sure how much storage to get. I was floating the idea of getting less storage, and hooking it up to a TB5 NAS array of 2.5” SSDs, 10-20tb for models + datasets + my media library would be nice. Any recommendations for the best enclosure for that?

IIRC when I played KSP it was necessary to point slightly down if you wanted to reach orbit in a continuous burn, rather than waiting to burn more at perigee. Is that true in general?

(was playing with a mod that models ullage, so relighting was quite finicky)

For C++, `bit_cast<uint32_t>(0.f)` should be Well Defined, right? I'm curious, in C, is union-casting float->uint32_t also Perfectly Legal And Well Defined?

(I am not a C or C++ expert.)

correct, roid rage is a myth: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8855834/

Nice. Reminds me of Bellard’s https://vfsync.org/ . It’s file system pages served over http, to back his jslinux browser VMs

Protocols from interfaces and multimethods from overloading. Although, to be honest, I've barely ever used them because FP is so easy in clojure. The few times I have, they make sense.

ok, found it: https://stuartsierra.com/2008/08/08/clojure-for-the-semantic...

I think it was in reference to the java ecosystem, more than "a better way to write java," although I still see it that way.

I can't find the quote for the of me, but it was from Rich Hickey and went something like: "First, you use Clojure to escape Java. Then, you use Clojure to write better Java."

I definitely found it to be true. Clojure takes the good parts of Java's OO system.
