    This assumes production of food is the bottleneck rather than distribution. If distribution is actually the bottleneck, overstocked food is not a measure of excess in society.

    Interesting how everyone's favorite language seems to be even better in LLM era, almost like passion, skill level and having LLMs matters more than the language.

    I think the way you interpret the null result is downstream of considering creatine as "a supplement". You can make the null result say anything by changing your prior about creati…

    The mix of humanizing the LLM, calling it "clanker" and being very aggressive towards it is really weird. I don't think it's a good habit to take, it feels like it could bleed into…

    There's also an alternative which is that token prices are already high, downtimes do exist (semi frequent on Claude) or are managed by serving degraded versions/quants (speculatio…

    Interesting, good find! Yeah I may be wrong and this may be an error in the leaderboard. Weirdly it shows no reasoning cost and no reasoning tokens used, but for example here https…

    I'm not referring to this paper, I'm referring to this leaderboard: https://arcprize.org/leaderboard . Set it to "arc agi 1", "base LLM" and you'll see deepseek at 57%. Submitted 2…

    DeepSeek V3.2 was tried without reasoning and it got 57% on ARC AGI 1. It's a 7 month model, so I'm pretty confident that base LLMs would be able to solve ARC AGI 1 without reasoni…

    Haven't tried Kimi K3 for now but there was a huge difference between GPT 5.6/Fable and GLM 5.2/Kimi K2.7 that were previous frontier open models.

    The thing about not much difference between models and the harness making them deterministic and useful is wrong. Also models have different strengths and weaknesses and some are b…

    This is true, but there's a big difference between saying "15-20 hours battery life, which is 11000 5-seconds activations, which last you a few years with 10 5-seconds activation a…

    I don't really care about the environmental consciousness, my issue is that presenting a product with a battery that lasts for years when it actually lasts 15 to 20 hours makes me …

    "don't reinvent the wheel" isn't a law of physics and I think is mostly said by people that never designed anything with wheels.

    I think I'd typify it as "ARC-AGI doesn't matter" more than "harness matters". Or maybe "harness matters for some very specific tasks".

    "Battery that lasts for years" being actually 12-15 hours of recording is a huge turn off honestly. >How long does the battery last? >Roughly 12 to 15 hours of recording. On averag…

    Considering progress in the rest of computing stuff (RAM, CPUs, storage) is kind of "linear"/exponential it sure looks like it's an engineering gap and we're on the right track. GP…

    I've tried to like Go with HTMX, but the big issue was always Go templates. I feel like if there was something like JSX/TSX but for Go, it would be a way better dev experience, but…
