@tekknolagi You could partially evaluate by hand to make it 0CFA? That should also simplify the implementation a bit (or a lot?). Another explanation (not an implementation) is the 0CFA chapter in Nielson, Nielson, and Hankin's "Principles of Program Analysis" textbook.

@mhyee Someone recommended on mastodon - my comment there was "I've been trying to understand that one but I think it uses gamma CFA and also is generic over k which makes it a little more complicated"

Does anyone have a link to a small, readable CFA implementation? Ideally just 0CFA, not configurable for arbitrary k, but both are fine.

Gather 'round children, it's time to learn the story of the ozone hole Last year on a lark, I flew to visit @recoolit in Jakarta to see their climate tech ambitions in action. That trip kickstarted my most ambitious writing yet. The first part is out now, on @every (link in 🧵)

@tekknolagi @willium Hi! Yes, I worked on this for my PhD. I have a model and some code, but it's very much a research prototype and not close to being a usable app. Main challenges are it's hard to get high quality data for both training and evaluation.

Okay, but can someone actually make an app that uses LLMs to automatically create type declarations for any JavaScript package?

Hi! I'm finishing my PhD this spring and looking for industry work in 🇨🇦🇺🇸; Europe if fit is right. Experience: compilers/PL impl, static analysis, recently code LLMs Website: mhyee.com If you're hiring or think I should apply somewhere, please DM! (And retweet!)

@psobot I could see code assistants being more useful if you're a beginning programmer, or if you're learning a new programming language and its libraries. Or if you're writing boilerplate code, the code assistant might be faster than searching on StackOverflow and then copy/pasting.

I really want to like LLM code assistants - but every time I try them, they’re slower and more frustrating to use than just writing the code myself, like @jevakallio’s experience below. What am I missing?

Today, I tried @GitHubCopilot Chat — A trip report: For my app, I needed to allocate strings into `n` buckets with a uniform distribution (as one does). A quick Google search gave me a promising algorithm, but it was in Python, so I decided to ask Copilot to translate it: 1/

@MagnusMadsenDK Probably Waterloo, it's closer to what I grew up with. But Boston and Waterloo aren't too different. Boston summers are a bit hotter but still humid. The winters are also warmer, but it rains a lot and I think cold rain is worse than colder snow.

This will be my 8th year in Boston, which is longer than I lived in Waterloo (7 years).

@alpha_convert You could go to Kensington Market. Probably more worth your time then the Distillery.

Excited! Super curious though; are the dimensions on these flags correct? They don't seem proportional.
