  2. …ones, we 'split' them back up, so loading the .html file doesn't necessarily load everything else: https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/master/build/deconst... And then you can save a lot of space by running standard optimization tools…

  3. …on Gwern.net, and didn't even have to write a TeX-to-HTML compiler - just a long LLM prompt: https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/master/build/latex2u... ) But that's missing the point. Who cares about all of the refinements like reflow…

  4. …that GPT-4 came up with when I asked it to think of any confusing or uncertain LaTeX constructs: https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/f5a215157504008ddbc8... There's no reason they couldn't do this themselves and come up with autonomous…

  5. That would also be Gwern.net. :) https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/master/build/Inflati...

  6. …a verbal description, though. Links.js hasn't been used in years on Gwern.net. You actually want https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/959ba9c50d327a960e07... https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/959ba9c50d327a960e07... and for the…

  7. …similar with the OA API embeddings on my static website ( https://www.gwern.net ; crummy code at https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/ ) for the 'similar' feature: call OA API with embedding, nearest-neighbor via cosine, list of links for…

  8. …but it's easy to get lost in. Fortunately, that makes them easy to write automatic link rules for: https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/master/build/Config/... These run automatically on essay bodies when compiling the site, and on…

  9. …I do a writeup. I still use archiver-bot etc, they're just not how I do the on-site archives. See https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/master/build/LinkArc... https://github.com/gwern/gwern.net/blob/master/build/linkArc... for that. The…
