    It really is an absolute massive jump. Have no clue what's going on in the back to warrant a 3x increase... 25-50%, sure.. but 3x is wild.

    WOuldn't proof of that be some grounds for breach of fiduciary duty?

    Without SWE-Bench though, how will AI models properly game their results to show ~5-10% gain each iteration? Once a benchmark is known and there's billion of dollars on the line, o…

    Generally I agree with the sentiment, for one major reason: debugability/dev loops. Inevitably you're going to end up having to debug that each of those steps is correct, for that …

    I'm not sure Bitcoin won.. it just continues being a ponzi scheme that you can make money in. You can also accept that certain things and be happy in life either way. Don't need to…

    No, because Lockdown Mode disabled JIT which is a part of this exploit chain.

    Unrelated bug as far as I can tell.

    I suspect you'll see one with this or Coruna soon enough.

    It's actually a fascinating find by Lookout, iVerify, and Google. This is a multi million dollar exploit chain sold to various buyers. Complete full chain 1-click exploit from Safa…

    Donated. Thank you and everyone else on the PyPy team. I use PyPy regularly on an app of mine, and very often when I need to do some compute heavy load. Typically over 5x faster th…

    I disagree you'd find "obvious" non-generic names easily. After all, "naming" is one of the hardest things in computer science.

    I think paying for search is becoming more acceptable when you look at the amount of people paying $20/mo for their AI subs, which to many people are just search engines. There wil…

    It's definitely an attempt to compare models, and Gemini clearly won in the tests. But, I don't think the tests are particularly good or showcasing. It's generally an easy problem …

    They heavily compete on "privacy" and "security", so I wouldn't expect them to. Additionally, once you start rolling with one government, every one wants you to do something for th…

    Can probably achieve the same level of deanonymization by just monitoring what times the user communicates most often. Or send them enough links that they'll click on.

    This was actually a really cool analysis. Fun to see how these things can be broken down so cleanly into graphs.
