"Mamba is the world's longest venomous snake with an estimated length of over 150 m"

Had a laugh at that. Really great stuff though, it was nice to have referencing to the arxiv paper so someone like me who generally consumes these things instead of translating them from papers could sort of peak behind the curtains.




Mamba has a great name ... [S]elective [S]tructured [S]tate [S]pace [S]equence models.. makes sSSSS, like a snake


If only the "mamba" name were not ugly.


Wait I thought that was the king cobra? The longest venomous snake ? At least that was what a simple Google search showed me.

Would be funny if they had to issue a correction for that sentence later on


It's also not 150 meters long (nearly 500 feet), which I think is also part of why it was funny to include the sentence in the README.


For me it was nice that the author left that example in as a way to maybe show what to expect from the model.
