At Astra API prices that's 300B tokens (I saw 130B output tokens claimed elsewhere), large but not unheard of if you consider it across a few people doing random experiments with best-of-n type things. On my personal account, I've

I worked at OpenAI previously, but don't know any of the people involved in this. My guess was it was probably this was more a nerd snipe than any action from OpenAI that was a "massive team" being put on it. Literally someon

I think you're assuming that the output of the page is LLM generated and not the process to produce the page.

Your decompilation threads have all the necessary info in them for this, anyone coming after lacks that foundation and effectively is doing a second inference over the hidden state, assumptions, etc. that your sessions have in them. A simul

If you're using coding agents for this, it may be worth splitting this up into multiple well arranged modules that tell a coherent story and make it easy to browse, and add explanatory docs based on the various things the LLM has found

Astra seems generally available now in codex at least - got any updates on this?

To some extent, and obviously grossly over-simplified here, copyright is the act of taking some already public good and putting private rights on it. My reading of the amicus is that the government is arguing that particular rights that NY

Would be good to see the full details of the tasks / methodology used. https://eebench.org/methodology.html makes this unclear. > A real capacitor makes the task more interesting. A ceramic part may provide much les

Not sure why the downvotes on this - it's a pretty reasonable take. I suspect that you're right that it's unlikely that the tainted items would be used to update the weights here and are more likely to be something that would

A lot of this feels like it comes down to the training of the agents to produce code that satisfies the various benchmarks combined with reactions to things which were previously maladaptive. I.e. things which were explicitly trained out of

Size of context is not the entire story here, it's ability to properly feed and index the context that's needed on this sort of thing. E.g. your entire slack/discord/email/github/jira/zoom meeting/cof

I took a look into it mostly to satisfy my curiosity. The AES-NI chip on the J4125 in the Synology DS1520 hits 5Gbit/s transfer when using 4 cores (AES-256-GCM). So technically this it would be possible to saturate its 4 ethernet ports

It's mostly something I'm thinking a bunch about recently. Nothing written up yet aside from the above. I'd go read Mitchell Hashimoto's Lobsters interview fora different take and see how that resonates with you as well

yeah, something along those lines - but more robustly defined.

It really feels like rsync should have a multi-path setting that would have sped this up across multiple links (but doesn't because noone has made it yet).

My interpretation is that the setup is 10GbE UNAS Pro 8, 4x 1GbE Synology DS 1520, 1x 2.5GbE Windows host.

Codex uses Ratatui also since June last year. You might be interested to read https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/8344 There's a lot of things you can do to get to 90-95% fidelity with a normal scolla

New protocol entirely. The existing stuff is too baked as having positioning, movement, cells as the unit of abstraction. You need to have that available, but not as the core abstraction level. The core has to be areas, words, layout, etc.

one step deeper - it's a failure of WIMP[1]. Imagine if instead of having a border around the parts of an app that make it an app and instead we applied the unix way but to the gui? What if we had lightweight widgets that had a lifetim

I have built a pretty full version of that idea in rust (codex tui2). There's a while tonne of downsides that make it basically impossible to really get to 100% good on this. > Under the hood it's still a terminal app, but from

The problem succinctly is when the terminal emulator only sees cell values and instructions it can't do anything more with things. Two really good examples are implementing accessibility well, and scrolling / changing things above
