@cosine i've used 12 GiB in one python process when computing a PCA of 2 GiB of input data, but besides that sorta thing it's pretty rare for me tbh

the new (old) deerhoof album is pretty cool, been listening to that a lot lately

anyway i did a thing https://witches.town/media/-ZPpra2Pq17BlFCELIY

always gotta do trigonometry out loud… it's probably the area of math i have the hardest time conceptualizing in my head

game idea: it starts with Windows 10's "All your files are exactly where you left them" screen. you then have 5 minutes to find your scrambled files before the system reboots itself for the next big update.

all aboard the riff wave

well i updated ctrlpvim by like 15 versions so hopefully somewhere in there they fixed the issue of `set hidden` being reverted

NGL i've never used or had to use a database outside of a couple sqlite queries for some logging software

just something i've been thinking about after watching a bunch of interviews in the last week. if you love your legends, that's cool, but we now have technology and genres that they could only dream of.

i think it's uncalled for to expect new musicians to know all of the "legends" of their instrument and/or genre. the amount of musicians and their music can only go up, so it's increasingly unreasonable to be expected to namedrop some guy from the 60s whose music is literally of and for a different era.

I don't like it when you can see ambient occlusion fading out towards the edges of the screen 😔

@modernmodron I just noticed you can attach more than one gif to a post. it's the futureeeee

unfortunately for stock image sites, pictures with heavy watermarking are now an aesthetic of their own

i kinda wanna rewrite my neural network library so instead of executing everything inline, it spits out a standalone* python file for the whole network. it would make it easy to backup and reproduce results!
*needs numpy and scipy obviously

heh, taking out LayerNorms from my network results in accuracies of 0.20 ± 0.08.
and just realized that saying 20% ± 8% seems kinda misleading… like it's not 8% of 20%, it's percent as a unit! do i write 20±8% then? augh
