“a more user security-conscious LLM is a good idea. I don’t know why it needs to be wrapped in novel-lengths of LOTR quotes and Sci-fi speculation” “This post is like the ultimate …

Hired hands, serfs, migrant workers had all of that and more for most of human history.

Yeah I’m checking - I saw several other oncologists suggesting song a separate discussion.

Here’s a link to the abstract: https://ascopubs.org/doi/abs/10.1200/JCO.2025.43.16_suppl.85... apparently it was prospective and randomized. I’m a little shocked by the effect size…

I'll grant that we could send humans to mars sooner if we really wanted to. My point is that not achieving a bigger dream doesn't make current progress a hype wave followed by a wi…

this attitude is so ridiculously disingenuous. Surely if a computer can score incredibly well on math olympiad questions, among other things, "a computer can make plausible-looking…

What nonspecific advice do you have for immigrants who want to (co)found companies but are on h1b’s or student visas?

they didn’t submit it here - I’m not sure they bear a responsibility to make sure their work is accessible to HN or any other target audience. If you don’t find an otherwise respec…

An unsophisticated person looks at this and says golly I better get tan! A somewhat sophisticated person says something like the above. People who change the world will wonder ther…

“There are approximately seven scanners per million inhabitants and over 90% are concentrated in high-income countries. We describe an ultra-low-field brain MRI scanner that operat…

This comment may be unpopular because it's not tremendously useful.

Have you used federated learning in production for machine learning models? What challenges did you face? What proved particularly helpful?

I'm not sure that's necessarily true. It is true (at least with a non-constructive proof) that if you pick a 'random' real number then it contains all possible PDFs with probabilit…

It says mAP right above the table. If you know what mAP is then you know the units. Professors will rail against imprecision to undergrads and young graduate students but they use …

Where do you work if you don't mind my asking?

I think I missed your overall point?

Surely there's something to learn here though. I haven't read the original paper but a quantity that's preserved across brain scales is either an artifact or a neat insight. Your c…

In my experience, you are way off base. Doctors can be very arrogant but I've never met someone from another profession who could point me to research articles regarding their prop…

Your analogies would make more sense if you spent 2 hours on documentation for every hour you spent coding or bug finding.

"You can see the computer age everywhere but in the productivity statistics." This was true for a few years, until it wasn't.

I'm not sure that logic holds - swimming in the ocean isn't the same as eating swordfish with respect to mercury, for instance.
