My carnivorous garden is really taking off this spring! In these photos: American pitcher plants, terrestrial bladderworts, a variety of sundews, and (of course) venus fly traps.

My carnivorous garden starting to come back from its winter dormancy! Love this time of year.

Friends quest partners and diamond league rivals in the same week, crazy!

Making LLMs run efficiently can feel scary, but scaling isn’t magic, it’s math! We wanted to demystify the “systems view” of LLMs and wrote a little textbook called “How To Scale Your Model” which we’re releasing today. 1/n

JAX is the latest project to adopt EffVer!

I added an answer – hope that helps!

>>> from functools import partial
>>> curry = partial(partial, partial)
>>> @curry
... def add(x, y):
... return x + y

>>> add_2 = add(2)
>>> add_2(1)

I think my favorite line of Python code I've ever encountered is

curry = partial(partial, partial)

So simple, but also breaks your brain

All I want for Christmas is cinematic back-story of the pigeon lady from Home Alone 2... Dresses like a Dickensian pauper in NYC in the 90s, with a hint of an Irish accent? Has access to the attic of the Lincoln Center? Controls Central Park's birds? WHO IS THIS LADY?

One of the pieces of parenting wisdom I've heard that has really stuck with me: a disregulated child has never been helped by a disregulated parent.

been reading through John Muir's writings recently, and it's striking that he doesn't reserve this kind of florid prose for grand settings like Yosemite, but sees natural beauty in every corner of the world he visits.

Spent some time this week digging into the Python array API standard (data-apis.org/array-api/la... ) and implementing some initial support in JAX. It's a cool project – interested to see where it goes!
