    LLMs are only good at copying the surface, like frequently used words, sentence structures, use of metaphors, etc. They fail at copying the underlying thinking framework. LLMs cann…

    I would call this one-row-per-contract-type, and this is the most general model for the problem (e.g. the model cannot be further broken down into finer level), thus, the most scal…

    By saying coding is the hard part, you're insulting all engineers . Edit: Although the current job market is heavily distorted, there used to be distinction b/w developer and engin…

    This one(Zapscape) exploits the same module(shadow MMU) as Januscape, so it does workaround the issue. AFAIK the only code paths that activates shadow MMU are (1) lack of hardware …

    This one exploit "shadow MMU" in the nested virtualization path of KVM, so this one is more-limited than EPT/NPT vul'n (KVM defaults to EPT/NPT, nested virt'n is disabled by defaul…

    Most of the time, the domestic market in China is indirectly controlled through political and social influence, not through policy. It's not a fair market at all.

    I think this kind of automated design process can un-hype humanoids. The point of humanoid robots is one-size-fits-all -- a generalist can readily fit into various scenarios. Howev…

    It's more like Claude models entirely suck at extracting key points. No matter how hard I emphasize that it needs to pick the "load-bearing" facts and claims, it cannot stop itself…

    I've only posted one question to SO, and it was enough to dislike the whole platform. LLM didn't kill it. SO killed itself with the broken community structure.

    App = Information × Interface = User Experience It's ×(multiplication), not +(plus). Interface is not simply overlaid on Information; it actively changes how information is perceiv…

    Yup, and calling out a human-written article as AI-generated would be a serious insult. AI-flagging would incur bigger damage to the community than just having AI-generated content…

    A dirty secret is that piracy is being abused by criminal organizations[1]. When people unknowingly access such sites to see contents for free, it generate ad revenue for those org…

    I’m quite sure there is a certain amount of correlation unfortunately, mainly because there are micro patterns (e.g. IO, allocator) that can’t be modularized into functions. Lots o…

    Just a side note: prompts often get a disproportionate amount of attention. That is, when you copy-paste an error message into the prompt, the LLM will focus on pleasing you immedi…

    Yeah, you got a very good point there. Yes, it may seem very weird, but that’s because China was not playing the game. The game that I suggested earlier assumes that (1) those in p…
