The decision to shorten "cybersecurity" or "cyberattacks" to "cyber" alone is so annoying! All models are "cyber-capable" :P

I recently tried buying a domain in cloudflare, they refused the payment -- even using my account which I use actively for years -- tried to pay with paypal, no luck. Went to porkb…

Does it produce real svgs as opposed to foreign object html in svg mess that mermaid compilers produce?

Well, the paper explicitly takes the principal branch to solve this. So it isn't exploiting the branching for computation.

Exactly! If you didn't strictly limit the operator's complexity, you could just smuggle a Turing machine in via bitwise logic and turn the whole thing into a parlor trick. The beau…

I think the point here is to explore the reduction of these functions to finite binary trees using a single binary operator and a single stopping constant. The operator used could …

This is a very in depth graph compression research presented with unmatched visuals. Trully inspiring and mind blowing. 2swap produces the type of content that makes me genuinely h…

To be clear I never said custom vibe coded personal software is bad. But clearly that's not the point from OP. Quoting directly: > you download a skill file that tells a coding age…

Why would this new paradigm create interesting tooling? From your description I expect wrose not better tools.

I did some more reading and want to walk back my skepticism a bit. There is actually serious effort going into this, such as Google’s research on space-based AI infrastructure: htt…

How are you doing pci express x16 with lasers without fiber optics? Have you touched data center hardware in your life?

Haha, hard pass on the job. I prefer my oxygen at 1 atm. I'm not a data center technician myself, but I have deep respect for those folks and the complexity they manage. It's quite…

Car-grade inference hardware is fundamentally different from data center-grade inference hardware, let alone the specialized, interconnected hardware used for training (like NVLink…

Maintaining modern accelerators requires frequent hands-on intervention -- replacing hardware, reseating chips, and checking cable integrity. Because these platforms are experiment…

AI clusters are heavily interconnected, the blast radius for single component failure is much larger than running single nodes -- you would fragment it beyond recovery to be able t…

Only people who never interacted with data center reliability think it's doable to maintain servers with no human intervention.

I made a comment earlier that was rightly flagged for its tone, and I would like to restate the technical point more constructively. The post author, Dan Piponi, clearly knows abou…

My bad. My intention was not to come across as snarky or aggressive. Dan Piponi, in his post, called for scale questions in interviews, suggesting that whoever worked on the featur…

Not really, if you had every grain of sand in the way it would diverge to a much bigger value. The problem is that the roads have >1 dimension at that scale, apple maps is definite…

This video is truly remarkable. I'm so grateful to artists like 2step for sharing this kind of work on YouTube. It reignites a passion for math that many of us might have forgotten…

It's understandable to hold different perspectives on the video. However, simply dismissing it as "AI" without any supporting evidence or referring to the audio as "noise" is unpro…

It's funny because you can't measure borders due to the coastline paradox.

Strong agree, they can even make the formatter configurable in pyproject if you want to use something else.
