Dusk OS is a 32-bit Forth. Its primary purpose is to be maximally useful during the first stage of civilizational collapse, that is, when we can't produce modern computers anymore but that there's still many modern computers still around. Dusk OS doesn't have users, but operators. What's the difference? Control. You use a phone, you use a coffee machine, hell you even use a car these days. But you operate a bulldozer, you operate a crane, you operate a plane. You use Linux, you use Windows. You operate Dusk OS. 🔗 duskos.org/ 😐

As floods & fires rise, oceans boil & ice melts, and "safe" temperatures are breached, something momentous just happened in the heart of the EU. No one has heard about it: journalists were present, but their editors refused to publish 🤯. 🧵, please RT. #BeyondGrowth2023 1/

"Overall, there is almost no ice over 4 years old remaining - it now comprises just 3 percent of the total ice cover... ...contrasts starkly with the late 1980s when 30 to 35 percent of the Arctic Ocean’s ice was older than 4 years." End of winter update: nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/2…

The heat of the world's oceans has hit unprecedented levels. 21.1C will be the death of coral reefs and marine ecosystems as species are forced to flee north, chasing their temperature-dependent ecological niches. Where are the headlines?

The @IPCC_CH 2023 Synthesis Report has just been released. Here are some of the key findings in charts by myself and @digitalcampbell Read @AttractaMooney and @CamillaHodgson's report... enterprise-sharing.ft.com/re… #dataviz

Net zero can be achieved through strong reductions across all sectors. Chart showing net greenhouse gas emissions (gigatonnes of CO2 equivalent emissions per year) pathways for current implemented policies versus limiting warming to 1.5C and 2C. Implemented policies result in projected emissions that lead to warming of 3.2C, with a range of 2.2C to 3.5C.

Solar and wind are the best mitigation options in the near-term. Chart showing potential contribution to net emission reduction, 2030 (gigatonnes of CO2 equivalent per year). Solar and wind are the cheapest and have the largest impact in reducing carbon emissions, with a combined net emission reduction of nearly 5 gigatonnes of CO2 equivalent per year

Hotter take: ML would have advanced faster if another front-end language had been available and widely adopted instead of Python. One that is interactive yet fast & compilable, multithreaded (no GIL), isn't bloated, doesn't care about white spaces,... E.g. Julia or some Lisp.

Hot take: Machine Learning would not have been nearly as advanced now were it not for Python. Python’s two main virtues in the context of ML: 1. Lowering barriers to entry. 2. As a scripting language, it encourages and enables experimental workflow.

My paper is on arxiv now arxiv.org/abs/2302.01834v1 The main contribution is that it identifies the “backprop without a backward pass” in transformers.

Coinductive guide to inductive transformer heads

We argue that all building blocks of transformer models can be expressed with a single concept: combinatorial Hopf algebra. Transformer learning emerges as a result of the subtle interplay between...

At #EUCO: to speed up military aid to Ukraine, we must send a clear signal to defence industry to produce more. Price goes up with every delay. My suggestion: could use mechanism similar to EU vaccine procurement. MS give funds, Commission procures, aid goes directly to #Ukraine

And of course there is the hidden gem of a talk by the infamous Roger Hui (implementer of J) entitled "What is Functional Programming?" where he uses legos to illustrate combinators in J teapaw.org/code_report/status/151…

Literally can't believe what I just watched ... a talk from 2011 entitled: "What is Functional Programming?" by John Scholes and Roger Hui. Hui refers to combinators as ... combinators (not trains or operators) and uses lego to describe them 🤯🤯🤯youtube.com/watch?v=bQlH49kr…
