Recommending Italo Calvino’s Six Memos for the Next Millennium, the lectures he has been preparing shortly before his death.
Not an assembly guide for a work of literature, but it’ll help your own process if it’s already ongoing and you want to improve.
The lectures also have some comments on what Calvino himself was doing here and there and why.
Because we have tons of ground-level sensors, but not a lot in the upper layers of the atmosphere, I think?
Why is this important? Weather processes are usually modelled as a set of differential equations, and you want to know the border conditions in order to solve them and obtain the state of the entire atmosphere. The atmosphere has two boundaries: the lower, which is the planet’s surface, and the upper, which is where the atmosphere ends. And since we don’t seem to have a lot of data from the upper layers, it reduces the quality of all predictions.
I know Google likes to localise their websites based on IP addresses. Perhaps the preview was requested from a Russian IP? (not necessarily yours, could be a VPN if you use one or one of LW’s servers)
“These hills are being bombed”?
No IPA notation? ⸨I’m somewhat disappointed⸩
It would. But it’s a good option when you have computationally heavy tasks and communication is relatively light.
Once configured, Tor Hidden Services also just work (you may need to use some fresh bridges in certain countries if ISPs block Tor there though). You don’t have to trust any specific third party in this case.
If config prompt = system prompt, its hijacking works more often than not. The creators of a prompt injection game (https://tensortrust.ai/) have discovered that system/user roles don’t matter too much in determining the final behaviour: see appendix H in https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.01011.
Like Firefox ScreenshotGo? (I think it only supports English though)
Huh, it’s actually a thing.

CVEs are constantly found in complex software, that’s why security updates are important. If not these, it’d have been other ones a couple of weeks or months later. And government users can’t exactly opt out of security updates, even if they come with feature regressions.
You also shouldn’t keep using software with known vulnerabilities. You can find a maintained fork of Chromium with continued Manifest V2 support or choose another browser like Firefox.
Very cool and impressive, but I’d rather be able to share arbitrary files.
And looks like you can only send images in DMs, but not in groups/forums.
The article isn’t about automatic proofs, but it’d be interesting to see a LLM that can write formal proofs in Coq/Lean/whatever and call external computer algebra systems like SageMath or Mathematica.
I see, thanks. Will check. I just thought perhaps you figured out something other than those from your experience.
Any guidance on choosing appropriate conservative settings for i7-13700K? I may be hit with the same as you in the future (sometimes I have to do some heavy multithreaded combinatorial computations which run several days with 100°C temperature, using all cores). The motherboard has options for customising pretty much everything there is, but I didn’t touch anything overclocking-related, so I have Asus defaults.
Here’s a KDE-specific script with kdotool (Wayland always needs custom solutions for simple things):
#!/bin/bash
WIN="$(kdotool search --class org.kde.konsole | head -1)"
if [[ "$WIN" != "" ]]; then
kdotool windowactivate "$WIN"
else
konsole
fi
I’d replace HoME with Parma Eldalamberon, Vinyar Tengwar and other journals publishing his early materials here.
