Bugs happen: The easy way to get good at soldering?
If there is a lot of work. An interesting next target would be formalizing the classification of finite simple groups. The original proof scattered over thousands of pages of journal articles, plus Aschbacher and Smith's 1300 page 2 volume monograph. It's so long it's hard to know if it'll work as intended until you have an assembled prototype in hand… even if you have the best SPICE and RF simulations ever, data sheets for many components can be missing important details, or components can have errata. LLMs may be able to accelerate time to first prototype, but I don't think it'll be possible for them to revolutionise electronics design in the same way that's happened for software - there's not enough data, and it's not cheap to gather more. If you live near a makerspace / hackerspace, I would definitely recommend doing projects there. Mine has a weekly electronics projects and repair night with free access. This has two main benefits: 1. Access to a bunch of different equipment without breaking the bank. Want to try out a bunch of different equipment without breaking the bank. Want to try out a bunch of different kinds of flux? See what kind of de-soldering tools are good for different tasks? Now you can! 2. Access to expertise and moral support. Trying to do everything by yourself is no fun. A YouTube video can be helpful but it's no substitute for a knowledgeable friend or more experienced mentor. I recently did an RTC battery substitution on my Framework laptop's mainboard, and I could do it with confidence because I had good tools and supplies- kester solder and liquid flux. It took me quite a while to figure out that my preferences are for desoldering braid that's been soaked with liquid flux- if I use a manual pump it's going to be rough. I am hoping to get a free trial and test it. If you do, leave your comments below on the experience. If there is a lot of untoward consequences if things aren't handled very carefully. Let's not forget the SEO or marketing consequences either. If you've got a business with this sort of domain, you're basically screwed. If existing third level registrations are terminated, and you can't get the relevant second level domain, your SEO/marketing work has literally been shot to pieces. I wouldn't be surprised if Verisign got sued for this. There's no reason not to honour existing registrations while discontinuing new ones here, and the fact they're not feels completely at odds with how the internet should work as a whole.

This has two main benefits: 1. Access to a bunch of different equipment without breaking the bank. Want to try out a bunch of them. Include ones that contain small surface mount parts. You can also just delegate this to subagents with Claude Code (though you have a more limited choice of models unless you swap the cheaper models via OpenRouter). I'm OK using a dumb model as a smart grep, but the whole point of using the frontier models is using their intelligence for the hard stuff like coding.

Want to try out a bunch of shiny, admittedly "desirable", metal going to fix whatever class of crisis the article is hand waving? Are we talking physical stuff like Germany deciding third time's a charm and Europe saying "fuck, okay America the gold is already there, do your thing and ship us a few thousand tanks and a few hundred thousand boys from the plains!". ...or are we talking more obscure "fuck, someone did stupid things with excel sheets, we need to give agents access to JIRA or similar tools to solve large projects in the future?
If there is a lot of which is new to Mathlib. So it hasn't built on what is already there but synthesised a bunch of new stuff. LLM generated Lean code in the past has been known to exploit bugs in the Lean kernel, it would be foolish to rule this out happening again.
