It's not quite the same, but your prose clock solution reminded me of this: https://www.authorandco.com/products/author-clock .

If AI writes your code, why fuss about the language it writes in?

I'm hopeful that new efficiencies in training (Deepseek et al.), the impressive performance of smaller models enhanced through distillation, and a glut of past-their-prime-but-func…

The premise for this research question is related in part to work from Dr. Eleanor Maguire (who I just learned died last year at only 55) and her team on hippocampal anatomy and ca…

Hail u/cperciva.

If you're not interested in the new sets, the core product is readily available. Moreover, enjoy the fact that you can get that bucket of bricks for cheap partly because the expens…

The real question: did he have Claude write this for him?

Had the same thought. NASA already cracked this nut with Apollo; if you’re gonna crack it again and differently, be real sure your solution is better.

Tangential, but Darknet Diaries has been running a "hacker history" series to kick off 2026, starting with this one: https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/168/ . The "Hackers" movie g…

Ah, the other AI: Actual Italian. (w/apologies to Davie504)

Presumably with apologies to Steinbeck: “Everyone was a temporarily embarrassed capitalist.”

Not your question, but 4xxx-series work seamlessly.

This is a fun example, but now you've got me wondering: has anyone checked on folks who might have been in an Amazon Go store during the outage?

Slightly hyperbolic, gpt-image-1 is better on at least a couple of the text metrics.

Claude Code is^W^W^WEvery LLM is a slot machine.

Yes, it's the Firefox version of Python's GIL.

A “dead airspace”, perhaps?

It's not my area of expertise, but I have seen other estimates that American adults, especially men, are likely to have and report numbers of friends such that the median is in the…

So, in reference to the "reasoning" models that the article references, is it possible that the increased error rate of those models vs. non-reasoning models is simply a function o…

It sounds like a compelling film. Seeing now that it's produced by Penn & Teller's team, it makes me wonder about this fits into their "juggler vs. magician" dichotomy. The implica…

It's an appealing hypothesis, but there's some compelling evidence to the contrary [0]. I'm not an expert, but this could potentially fall under the heading of pop history or pseud…

LTX-Video isn't quite the same quality as Wan, but the new distilled 0.9.6 version is pretty good and screamingly fast. https://github.com/Lightricks/LTX-Video

I'm not saying you're wrong about the EFF's support, but I'm not finding a lot of information that says you're right, either. I tend to think of the EFF as generally (not always) b…
