Talk about sour grapes. Muse remains ridiculously popular and I will bet my bank account that there are more Muse fans than slop enthusiasts.

I see comments that this overlap between Qwen and GPT is due to rogue training or post hoc training. Did it occur to anyone that maybe the two sets of models were trained directly on the same solutions to the researchers' benchmark?

Definitely stinks of LLM phrasing, metering, and punctuation. But I'd say the ideas are the author's alone and they do cut through.

The edit is dead on and this is the very first thing that crossed my mind. Bad managers hollow out companies. It's quite devastating.

The blog implies that CF's core business is suffering because of added investment in what the author describes as AI. See their useEffect bug as an example. EDIT: To be clear, my employer still uses CF and I don't see any evidence

This is definitely as opinionated as an opinion piece can go. Worth mentioning I don't use CF anywhere or care about it... but my employer does. I can really only remember one catastrophic outage. It involved some part of CF that had n

Worth noting that there's no security in a system that abusively collects your data. That goes for children as well.

This post is inaccurate at its face but for those who are curious, Canada's GDP is in the low trillions of USD and its growth stagnated (but remained positive) the past several months. By contrast, several US states like Vermont and Al

This is a bit of a strawman. The parent comment wasn't suggesting that the inherent defects magically disappear nor was it suggesting that local inference today is sufficient for all tasks. At the heart of it, self-hosting liberates yo

I didn't read the Ramp article but this reads like a post hoc fallacy. Companies with 2x revenue have money to spend on AI. Companies with 1.15x revenue don't.

Which is why test generation has to be carefully guided as well, and this is something at which I've incidentally been fast. Ultimately it's a constant battle between LLM handholding and doing things yourself.

Yep.

I do not have the burnout but I certainly operate similarly to the author. I continue to be unable to establish a workflow where allowing the LLM to generate code that I review is faster than writing the code myself. Literally the only two

Taken out of context, you're right. But the parent comment couldn't buy these books even if they wanted to. I'd say there's a consensus that the primary motivation for piracy is hurdles to access having nothing to do wit

I'm old-man-yelling-at-the-clouds here. Everyone just uses Cloudflare, which is not a bad thing by itself. But do they _have_ to? Is managing your own edge really that terrifying?

I want this. It's the reason why every time I shop for desks I look for workbenches. Desks are always TINY and I never understood why.

This fixation on "importance" is laughable. It is "insane" to drop Gmail because it makes them a shitload of money. That is how corporations work.

I'm using llama.cpp with Gemma and tool calling is mission critical. It's perfectly fine on my end. There are definitely differences in the eagerness to tool-call that you'll need to manage. And for all local models I've

The paper isn't concerned specifically with survival. It's saying that you cannot achieve "abstraction" (presumably the structure that underlies critical thinking, creativity, etc.) through shear mimicry. Again, just ech
