The article shows WASM being 1.2-3.7x slower, and your experience confirms it. Do you have any idea which operations regress the most?

Chain of thought happens in the <think> tags, not the visible output. Caveman only strips filler from what you see... the reasoning depth stays the same. I found this visualisation pretty interesting - https://vectree.io&#x

Great find! It appears uppercase tokens are completely unknonw to the tokenizer. But the character still comes through in response :)

The wiki diagram helped me too, thanks! One thing I did not understand before: why SNAT must happen at POSTROUTING? Because the exit interface is only known after the routing decision... before that kernel does not know which source IP to w

Good point, full self driving probably felt like marketing win back then... but now it is a liability. Rebranding now would just highlight all missed promises

Looked at their source code out of curiosity. They use Elasticsearch as a geo backend, tile server that renders PNG images server side for each map tile request. - low zoom -> server aggregated grid - high zoom -> switcher to point ti

yes, this part I find to be most interesting.. how many losses before the picture changes for the public?

maybe it keeps getting rediscovered, becaues a good tooling around it is still missing?

exactly, embeddings destroy information.. exact keywords, acronyms, etc. They get squashed into floats. That is why grep still beats it for code. I generated visual schematic of every stage of the pipeline - https://vectree.io&

I didn't know how old this actually is. I was surprised to learn Marcus Aurelius wrote his Meditations as a private journal... never meant to be published. found this if anyone wants to explore: https://vectree.io/c

had the same question and after reading about it, I found there are multiple layers on each other. Existing plans are built to run 40-60 years.. retiring creates "stranded assets". pension funds fight hard to avoid that. The renew

Isn't the point of mirrors to concentrate heat for mining, not to get more total power?

30 years and nobody (pharma, govts, etc.) have not found it worth to study this properly. If it worked, would not at least some researched pick this up?

yeah, encrypting the bits before embedding seems like a valid first step... even if someone suspects steganography, they still can't read it

this made me look into how cloud hypervisors actually work on HW level.. they all offload it to custom HW (smart nic, fpga, dpu, etc..). cpu does almost nothing except for tenant work. AWS -> Nitro, Azure -> FPGA, NVIDIA sells DPUs. H

what surprised me is how Proton works under the hood... no emulation at all! wine translates win API -> Linux. Then DXVK converts DirectX calls into Vulkan in real time, and VKD3D-Proton for DX 12. so it always native Vulkan.. no wonder

you are right.. separating this 2 questions is big safety advantage. exactly like in software we separate logic from security (like AWS IAM)

valid point, it reminds me of video games. GPUs got faster, devs pushed higher resolutions, more complex lighting instead of saving power :)
