Which is obviously not the case in this context?

I'm also making a statistical observation. Saying a model "picks up on" a concept is standard shorthand, same as saying it has "learned.” What I meant is that the model has trained on plenty of neutral proper nouns that

But these scenarios are obviously ambiguous nonsense, which an LLM will pick up on. And given to the lack of training data on such scenarios, surely the activations are mostly random noise? It seems much more interesting to look for biases

If you squint, even their TLV encoding in a Box<[u8]> is kind of a specialized arena allocator.

Bahahaha, come on man. The Claudish is so obvious it hurts. Doubt you even read your own “645 line policy kernel.” Can you explain what that is and how it works in YOUR OWN words? If you paste Claude at us again we’re gonna know.

If they can’t prompt Claude to implement such a trivial standard, they probably shouldn’t be proposing standards.

Cool story Dario, call me when Claude supports AGENTS.md.

Being able to run “custom” code is the default state of computers, and doesn’t require additional effort on the part of the manufacturer. How do you think they got their own code on there? Apple has just not spent effort in the opposite d

This comment is itself a perfect example of what I was talking about. Nobody feels entitled to a visa. It’s aspirational, like applying to a job. People do it because they want a better life, knowing full well they could be denied, or that

The implication that visa applicants are receiving government benefits intended for Americans is completely unsubstantiated.

by foltik 21d ago
The entire point of a temporary visa is for the country to benefit from your labor. How does canceling it on a “whim” benefit anybody?

by foltik 21d ago
Do you have anything constructive to say about the merits of the leave to renew policy itself? Or the zero notice halt of visa processing? Or just vague gesturing about how immigrants aren’t entitled to anything? (but you presumably are!)

by foltik 21d ago
Look around the thread and notice how little the comments defending these policies have to say about the policies themselves. Instead, what they all have in common is a vague underlying fear of being displaced, or sense that something owed

Absolutely not. They put in the literal bare minimum possible effort short of locking down the platform entirely. You get a jmp to some arm64 instructions of your choosing, with a bunch of CPU features locked out.

by foltik 22d ago
It’s barely a “feature” that they let you execute arbitrary code on your own hardware. They don’t provide any source code or documentation (which they easily could) so if want to do literally anything with your “open” device you must first

Not really. Take Chrome for example. It controls what javascript APIs websites have access to. Still needs separate sandboxing.

Computers are useful because we can instruct them what we want to do precisely . It’s true we usually don’t care about all the details, which is why abstractions exist. An abstraction hides details by fixing them, and lets you specify the

If all your colleague does is generate a “response” in a specific writing style based on some context, there’s no reason to talk to them at all. The good ones have some novel human insight that can’t be approximated by a slop generator. And

No, it’s not relevant to simple GPU offload, stop spam linking your slop blog.

It’s described in this patent application [0]. There’s a bit of hand waving so the HC1 might be slightly different, but the gist is the same. https://patents.justia.com/patent/20250123802

I avoid closed source software because it’s often a pain to use on Linux.

At least in the case of Taalas the weights are physically encoded directly on the chip. It’s composed of 4-bit multiplier cells that compute all 16 possible results in parallel. The top metal wiring layer physically selects the one that cor

Where do I sign up to get $100M to dump into long AI positions?

Just let them have their AI pacifier.

I read through the explanations and they’re all typical hand wavy LLM prose, full of jargon, and random tangential details. If you’re going to publicly present this as a learning tool, it would be great if you spent some actual human brain

No, the reports specifically mention that the AI target selection pipeline drastically increased the workload and expectations of the humans in the loop, leading to spending far less time on deciding whether to attack, iirc a few seconds pe

Your site has a bunch of marketing copy, trademark symbols, and a link to pay you $2k/mo, but zero technical detail and is broken on mobile. It gives vibe coded. The benchmark of 2m black-scholes evals/sec is meaningless without a
