Have you ever been forced to code something impossible and tedious by a user who keeps getting more and more frustrated as you keep trying?

Wayland is great and I generally prefer it, but it's worth keeping X around for KDE Plasma I think. Things like remote desktop are nicer on X, X is much easier to use on Android compared to Wayland, etc.

If DDG got 28% more visits, Google lost about .6% of their visits.

Wow. Hopefully, Ternus will bring what he brought to Apple's hardware to their software. The hardware is leaps and bounds ahead of anything else, but their software gets worse and worse every generation. I'm glad to hear this.

ChatGPT recommended me some good hard drives for price per TB, and one particularly cheap one had direct checkout with Walmart, so I tried it, because why not? It let me get all the way to the payment step before it told me it was out of st

I'm currently using a fully vibe-coded, personal River window manager that works just how I want it to. I switched to it after I realized I couldn't do everything I wanted in Hyprland (e.g. tile windows to equal areas instead of B

"Prediction" markets were supposed to be great because of insiders: they make the probabilities much more accurate and actually useful for forecasting. But they ended up just being for gamblers and there is no more signal.

Is this essentially a cloud-managed specialized subagent with an LLM-friendly API? Seems like an interesting new category.

20% loss isn't too bad if you start out at double the capacity though.

Ok, but something like Zed is almost as snappy as native GUI frameworks AND has a consistent user experience. It doesn't seem like they are making any tradeoffs there.

I think AI Studio uses the API, so rate limits are extremely high and almost impossible for a normal human to reach if using the paid preview model.

Mathematicians don't do high school math competitions - the benchmark in question is AIME. Mathematicians generally do novel research, which is hard to optimize for easily. Things like LiveCodeBench (leetcode-style problems), AIME, and

The improvement from Claude 3.7 wasn't particularly huge. The improvement from Claude 3, however, was.

Nice to see that Sonnet performs worse than o3 on AIME but better on SWE-Bench. Often, it's easy to optimize math capabilities with RL but much harder to crack software engineering. Good to see what Anthropic is focusing on.

Interesting how Sonnet has a higher SWE-bench Verified score than Opus. Maybe says something about scaling laws.

Wonder why they renamed it from Claude <number> <type> (e.g. Claude 3.7 Sonnet) to Claude <type> <number> (Claude Opus 4).

No. I am referring to Claude 3.5 Sonnet New, released October 22, 2024, with model ID claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022, colloquially referred to as Claude 3.6 Sonnet because of Anthropic's confusing naming.

The SWE-Bench scores are very, very high for an open source model of this size. 46.8% is better than o3-mini (with Agentless-lite) and Claude 3.6 (with AutoCodeRover), but it is a little lower than Claude 3.6 with Anthropic's proprieta

A little bit unrelated, but the rise of Transformers in 2022 was because of the compute available - in 2018, it would have been almost impossible to make something like GPT-4.
