That's not very informative. Who invented them then?

Absolutely. But France may well have been the first country to have them.

indeed, especially since TFA says they're 50 years old :)

MCP = Model Context Protocol, a framework that lets LLMs talk to external tools and sources


They're still functioning after ten times of the Voyager's projected lifetime, I can't call that an error.

Upvoted. Sooner or later the Grim Reaper comes for us all.

What do you mean with trajectory? Also, a simple github search will show you many hits for the Raycast text, proving that this is quite real.

The path of reasoning the agent took that led it to generate the output. The GitHub search bits got posted after my comment, so while it is clearly real, it just seems injected by Raycast.

This is real. I do not have access to the path of reasoning, this ran through the GitHub copilot app which does not grant you access to the chain of thought.


They are more or less importing this from the US, where this has been going on for a time already, especially at school libraries.

Thanks, I didn't see that submission though I saw the page that it links to, but since it doesn't mention xv I thought it was better to link this page (despite the site it's on).

I agree, but in this age of widespread LLM use, that's only marginal.

Very sad. Radio is still the medium that can bring news the fastest. I start and end the day with news radio, and listen to music radio in the middle.

Radio is very useful during natural disasters. When you're sitting for hours (days) without power, internet, etc, listening to the radio can be the only connection to the outside world.

I find it weird to have the Perl innovation (?:...) be called "traditional regex". Perl was rather innovative back then, even if it's more than 30 years ago now. Traditional regex is what came before it (grep -E being the most advanced form). I wonder what counts as nontraditional in the author's eyes.

>even if it's more than 30 years ago now.

Here's your answer.

>Traditional regex is what came before it

No, that's "ancient regex".


> No, that's "ancient regex".

wouldn't the "ancient regex" be the ed "g/re/p" version?

  -E, --extended-regexp
    Interpret PATTERNS as extended regular expressions (EREs, see below).
  -G, --basic-regexp
    Interpret PATTERNS as basic regular expressions (BREs, see below).  This is the default.
  -P, --perl-regexp
    Interpret I<PATTERNS> as Perl-compatible regular expressions (PCREs).  This option is experimental when combined with the -z (--null-data) option, and grep  -P  may  warn of unimplemented features.
From the manpage it seems my grep make distinction between "Extended" "Basic" and "Perl" regexes.

>wouldn't the "ancient regex" be the ed "g/re/p" version?

That's "prehistoric regex"


In my head a regex-like thing of Perl origin is known as a 'perlex'.

can call it PCRE now

'PCRE' never really caught on broadly, unfortunately.

It seems that Boost actually uses 'perlex' https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_31_0/libs/regex/doc/syntax_... .


Haha, you're right about that. I was looking for another word for "default"
