Day 6 of having a BPE tokenizer consume all of Project Gutemberg and my collection of Humble Bundle books and Japanese light novels, it is now compressing things by around 75 to 80% and takes around an hour per pass

Currently in between trains, living of water and spite for the RATP

Off I go! To the night train! Brighton here we go

My back feels like a horribly mangled origami crane

Un énarque ouvert d'esprit ça n'arrive que comme une poubelle pleine de fleurs, Š l'entrée des cimetières.

不思議といえば不思議　愛といえば愛
ここに無いものは　どこにも無いもの
独りでに消えてゆく　想いに命を
眠れない夜たちに　綺麗な世界を

Rayons is such a great musician. As I am reading a novel and listening to the soundtrack of the anime adaptation, I am getting murdered by feels. She nailed the soundtrack, she nailed the mood of the novels, everything is perfect. I know that wishing for more recognition for her is a bit off-tone given that she did the new era of Japan ceremony music too, but I feel like she deserves more public eye

Hey @… was there not some sort of fediverse registry of notable/interesting people to follow? I have some vague memory of you recommending it a few years back but my memory is basically more holes than material right now

Many say that the devil is in the details, but imma be honest with you anyone that washed the dishes ever knows the devil is in the spoons

Okay, so with my friend Melcx we made a thing. it still needs more work, polish and to be made a real game with active gameplay beyond exploration, but here you go

Breathe, gather and focus. It's the finish line now

Aaaaaaaaaaaa
I can save 60 bytes on a datastructure and get it optimized to make the entire pipeline for that specific case like up to 40% faster
It will now haunt me until I can work on it. Then I will be haunted by the large object garbage collector that also has significant optimization that are doable. Then the interpreter's GC and high level API will haunt me...
Can't I be like a normal person and be haunted by ghosts and specters instead of a night dwelling un…

Okay, upon seeing my web site was outdated I decided to remake it from scratch in C . I am fine, I just accidentally made a front-end framework called "overreact", and it may or may not already support localization...

Hiroshi Mori's Saikawa&Moe series is so funny because both characters somewhat know what the other feels but the older guy is like "nope, I will play ignorant until the day I die, and I'll smoke as much as possible so that cannot be in a long time" and the younger girl is all "welp, I will be spiteful and jealous and I will definitely do everything in my power to tease you because I know of your weakness against watermelons"

I have decided to suffer, and hence made a genetic algorithm that through linear algebra generates colours palettes to be automatically scored by a small perceptron that will be live trained by a human who will pick a score for a sample of palettes, all to try and generate automatically colour palettes that an artist could find appealing for the sole goal to figure out if colour pleasantness is evaluable and/or reproducible by linear algebra
It is 1:30 AM and I have a full backend, 4 t…

Giant fucking orb of malevolence in the sky won't let a fair skinned vampire home in peace smh

Remember everyone, quidquid latine dictum sit altum videtur

Noooooooo! I forgot the laptop, no train-coding, only despair and anticipative design of what will be when I get back home

Local search engine is up and running, now to add a couple of caches with LMDB to replace my crude memoization and add loading of actual documents instead of just text file directories, and adding back-links. Crazy what one can do with just a hundred lines of C

You know, there is this realisation moment when a game is rolling credits, and then when the title screen appears there is an ominously red "2" floating behind it now that just make you go "Wow, I can have another ride!"

If someone asks you to choose between meat or fish, choose the fish, really. It will not end well if you choose the meat
