About

It's me!

Hello all, welcome to the blog of the ferocious nerd Lukas! I dissolve into topics like:

  • Bayesian Statistics, my thesis was on a Bayesian approach to novelty detection in high dimensional spaces
  • Sampling, you’re telling me that No U-Turn Hamiltonian Monte Carlo sampling isn’t just as cool a use of new computing capabilities as transformers?!
  • Lambda calculus-based hardware like the reduceron, it seems like such a cool way around the von Neumann bottleneck
  • Keyboards, specifically wireless split mechanical keyboards with screens on them
  • Type systems, I want nothing more than a fast compiler for a dependently typed language that I understand
  • Text, emacs and org-mode play a tug-of-war with Kakoune, markdown, and posix for my heart
  • Reproducible research, at first this meant big org-mode files to me, now this means NixOs environments with make files that generate final results from hashed data along with extensive use of git’s features
  • Language design, specifically that of Unison, Idris2, Haskell, Uiua, ATS, and Futhark
  • Yeast, I like my yeast in sour dough, apple cider, juices, and as a nutritional topping
