  • The best form of exercise for you is the form that you actually do consistently week after week. If this means working out at home, then that’s fine. Given that you’re not trying to break any records, this might just be fine for you.

    I’ve done many different forms of working throughout the years, one of which was to work out at home/local outdoor gym. I did this because there were no gyms at what I considered to be a reasonable distance from home, and I considered that to be too much of an impediment to actually get the work done consistently.

    I did get stronger from it, and used it as a part of losing weight, which I wanted on account of being overweight at that time.

    I’ve since stopped doing that routine and moved to lifting weights at a gym, which I considered attainable since I moved to a place with gyms very close by. I did this because working out at home had basically reached a plateau as far as strength was concerned - lifting weights at a gym will get you stronger at a faster pace.

    I think checking out the stuff that Hybrid Calisthenics does could be worthwhile for you. Do some stuff at home for now if that feels better for you, and then evaluate later on if it keeps working for you.




  • Sweden: Late Spring/Early Summer/Early Autumn, approximately May, June and September.

    Temperatures between 15-25 °C, low humidity and lots of hours of daylight (18 hours in early June). Great conditions for biking and just all-round pleasant to be in.

    Early Spring is too wet, Late Summer is too hot and humid, and Late Autumn is too wet and dark. Winter sucks, unless it’s an unusually cold year and we get consistent snow coverage. Wet and extremely dark.




  • The concern is that the model doesn’t actually see the world in terms of distinct hexadecimals, but instead as tokens of variable size - you can see this using the tiktokenizer-webapp: enter some text and it will split it into the series of tokens the model actually will process.

    It’s not impossible for the model to work it out anyway, but it is a reason for this type of task to be a bit harder on LLMs.




  • Still, this does not quite address the issue of tokenization making it difficult for most models to accurately distinguish between the hexadecimals here.

    Having the model write code to solve an issue and then ask it to execute it is an established technique to circumvent this issue, but all of the model interfaces I know of with this capability are very explicit about when they are making use of this tool.
