They should have changed the name as per branding. I hear Siri, I subconsciously associate it with really bad software.

You are free to use AI to write Zig code just not use AI to write code for Zig. In fact, many people already do build software with zig written by AI. Check out rockorager's github…

Schools like MIT pay PhD students barely above or sometimes below the poverty level of that particular state as monthly stipend. Yeah, research funding got slashed but if they had …

OpenAI is very good in terms of not having as much outages as Anthropic, but almost all products except Codex and the pro model is unimpressive, anthropic has the opposite situatio…

The BBC has increasingly been anti-semitic. First, the baseless allegations of starving and murdering children in Gaza and now this. Troubling times.

check out cs 336 stanford, they cover DPO/GRPO and relevant parts needed to train LLMs.

There's no way I am using such an important piece of life as an IDE from Google just because I know they are going to kill it within 3 years, if it survives that much. Probably wil…

How would you onboard a software engineer who doesn't know zig if you were to do so? Learning tips?

Still use pinboard which seems more than enough for me. But I would happily pay for a pinboard that has better search and more responsive customer service.

I still haven't got access to GPT-5 (plus user in US), and I am not really super looking forward to it given I would lose access to o3. o3 is a great reasoning and planning model (…

It works fine I would say. In the absence of a bigger screen with proportional DPI (kindle scribe is 300 which is one of the highest in terms of screen size), kindle scribe is one …

Isn't remarkable pro the same size as Kindle scribe? Their website says 10.8 x 7.8 inches.

I wish they would do a bigger size kindle scribe. I read pdfs all day on my scribe, and often I wish the screen was bigger so the font size would be large.

A lot of this can be explained by just supply and demand. In central New Jersey, the number of people who need to get a home is always increasing, but number of houses being built …

To be honest, when I say it has significantly worsened, I am comparing to the time when GPT-4 just came out. It really felt like we were on the verge of 'AGI'. In 3 hours, I coded …

My use of ChatGPT has just organically gone down 90%. It's unable to do any sort of task of non-trivial complexity e.g. complex coding tasks, writing complex prose that conforms pr…

This has exactly been my experience for at least the last 3 months. At this point, I am thinking if paying that 20 bucks is even worth anymore which is a shame because when gpt-4 f…

Thanks for the reply. Is the code available by any chance?

What's the technology behind the blog? It's clean, minimal and beautiful.

Can 100% confirm this. You have to keep reminding it what I said just 2-3 hops ago.

The main problem I have faced with the whisper model (large) is when there is silence or a sizable gap without audio, it hallucinates and just puts out some random gibberish repeat…
