Anti-hype LLM reading list

Goals: Add links that are reasonable and good explanations of how stuff works. No hype and no vendor content if possible. Practical first-hand accounts of models in prod eagerly sought.

So, let’s flip a coin: if it’s heads, play a drum, if it’s tails, play a cymbal. Easy. We can emulate a coin flip with our one_in function (introduced in the section on randomness) specifying a probability of 1 in 2: one_in(2). We can then use the result of this to decide between two pieces of code, the code to play the drum and the code to play the cymbal: 

loop do

  if one_in(2)
    sample :drum_heavy_kick
  else
    sample :drum_cymbal_closed
  end

Refactoring, Fowler

http://martinfowler.com/books/refactoring.html

Five or six years ago I was working on an essay about refactoring CSS. I didn't do that, but I did find these notes while working on something new. Hope they're useful! —Dean

p7 "When you find you have to add a feature to a program, and the program's code is not structured in a convenient way to add the feature, first refactor the program to make it easy to add the feature, then add the feature."
