When you say its very very hard to create a good splat, what do you mean? And what is good? I would say that strawberry is very detailed and its a good splat. I also kind of like the way some of the 'rougher' splats look. I fe

It's funny that the context window size is such a thing still. Like the whole LLM 'thing' is compression. Why can't we figure out some equally brilliant way of handling context besides just storing text somewhere and f

To your point, from the article: "To me, giving a Claude skill all your credentials, and access to everything important to you, and then managing it all via Telegram seems ludicrous, but who am I to judge."

I don't know about Jetstream, but redis cluster would only ack writes after replicating to a majority of nodes. I think there is some config on standalone redis too where you can ack after fsync (which apparently still doesn't gu

This makes sense to me. Where I work our ai team set up a couple h100 cards and are hosting a newer model that uses up around 80GB vram. You can see the gpu utilization on graphana go to like 80% for seconds as it processes a single reque

So in terms of OCR, does the neural network 'map' the words into an embedding directly, or is it getting a bunch of words like "Hamlet's monologue" and mapping that to an embedding? Basically what I'm asking i

13 minutes in Andrej is talking about how the models don't even really need the knowledge, it would be better to have just a core that has the algorithms it's learned, a "cognitive core." That sounds awesome, and would

Well I don't know about others here, but I think its cool. If you can make the setup super readable and get the performance of C then why not? Especially now when you can get claude to write a bunch of the framework for you. Add in

Agreed agentic coding is a huge change. Smart startups will be flying but aren't representative. Big companies won't change because the staff will just spend more time shopping online instead of doing more than what is asked of

Does the Unreal API change a bit over versions? I've noticed when asking to do a simple telnet server in Rust it was hallucinating like crazy but when I went to the documentation it was clear the api was changing a lot from version to

I'd guess that people fail the mentioned test specifically because they forget how to determine if a number is even. How often do you do that in real life? I haven't had to do that professionally in probably my entire career (&g

Still you don't necessarily need to have dynamic memory allocations if the number of deltas you have is bounded. In some codecs I could definitely see those having a varying size depending on the amount of change going on in the scene

See this is interesting to me. I understand the desire to dynamically allocate buffers at runtime to capture variable size deltas. That's cool, but also still maybe technically unnecessary? Because like you say, at 4k and over 8MB pe

Hey maybe we can discuss why I'm being downvoted? This is a technical discussion and I'm contributing. If you disagree then say why. I'm not stating anything as fact that isn't fact. I am getting downvoted for asking

Requiring dynamic state seems not obvious to me. At the end of the day you have a fixed number of pixels on the screen. If every single pixel changes from frame to frame that should constitute the most work your codec has to do, no? I&#x

I don't know enough about what it would take to implement static lifetime checking. Is that fundamentally impossible to do in a backwards compatible way?
