I've been chatting with qwen2, a model from Alibaba. I mostly chatted with it in English but it appears to support several other languages and I noticed a bit of Chinese leaking through even though I...

I was inspired by Daniel's post to add sidenotes to this blog. I used claude-3.5-sonnet to generate the CSS and HTML shortcode to do this. I was impressed how well it turned out[^1]. It was almost...

I enjoyed reading Jordan's post, a walk down memory lane of his career so far through a series of emails. He includes things like following up on internship opportunities, negotiating, and meeting...
