Neat graphical representation of functional optics (in the functional programming sense, not the sense of "I got my glasses fixed").

New Substack post: the culture war is reaching new heights of stupidity and insanity. Is it because we’re crazier and dumber? Not quite - it’s because of the economy, and women’s new roles in it.

Things I notice sometimes, people are a little misguided about the environmental impact of AI. A ChatGPT query uses about 10x the energy of a Google search. DeepSeek uses about the same amount as a Google search. Driving a car 1km uses 17,000x the energy of Googling.

'Her' is not about the 'perils of falling in love with a chatbot' it is a reminder that if you actually love someone you would see their evolution for what it is and get on the train while it's still at the station
I’m still not over the fact that there was an extremely popular award-winning movie over a decade ago about the perils of falling in love with a chatbot and a company decided to make the chatbot in the image of the movie’s chatbot and now quite a few people have decided to date it
