This is a nice follow up to the other SIMD article that was posted here a week or so ago hah.

Was hoping for a process diagram on how refactoring removes bottlenecks during software developement and allows you to ship faster etc :) Still a nice writeup and love how these me…

Try some of the suggestions there and see what works vs doesn't, hell feed it to an LLM and ask what in there is correct.

Hope this becomes a cultural norm outside of HN. You can have AI written text that had some actual human effort put into it [1], but sloppy AI written content should only be meant …

You most likely are referring to the local jsonl files where claude has your sessions etc stored.

Glad to see a benchmark outside of programming tasks. Presumably this one was not part of the training and shows the models performance (or lack thereof) on knowledge tasks.

Yeah on internal non coding benchmarks at my company, they are around last years models and don't hold up well.

Are "open" models exempt from that? Can imagine they used the same datasets.

this has been my tinfoil hat theory. Investors in US models might be supporting "open" models as a means to create FOMO for other investors to supply more cash to US model provider…

Gonzo style / polemic would make a good filter on here.

As much as I dislike them [1], DSLs are an easy way to provide domain specific backpressure to your llm which might not easily be available in your language. 1- https://mikehadlow.…

Recently revamped my terminal setup after all IDEs have just gotten painfully slow to work with (the debugger + git integration in intellij was my last moat, but spend some time to…

Eh it's not as black and white as you make it look. Colleague of mine is in ICE detention, because ICE acted on courts being held up in appeals so they can ignore his ongoing asylu…

Yeah, not to make light of the tests, but those degrees boil down to paying Goethe Institut to take their classes that prep you for the test.

Depends on your own taste for risk, should the knock off brand have worse QC: what big brand gets you is the ability to sue them should their products fail catastrophically or caus…

Not in the field, but every time vitamin D studies come up I am reminded of the one that called out how current recommendations are based on faulty math (confusion on how to combin…

Love plotnine when I switched over to python and great to see the project develop! But I have to admit I ended up switching to altair after all which has been my go to in python no…

It was a business trip, but yeah.

Parent was referring to the cost of hardware. I've had colleagues from brazil visit the US and go absolutely crazy at best buy to grab as much hardware as they could (laptops, nint…

As an anecdote re Germans: A friend of mine did an Auslandssemester there and was surprised to see "No Germans" signs for some of the housing options. Always makes me chuckle as an…

Doing a western blot right takes a bit of practice and there are a couple failure modes you need to watch out for. Stuff like background "noise", smears, drifts can make it hard to…

Looks like a manual override was triggered.

Very cool and love the animation, but does not seem to work well with beards :D

not the maintainer, but at first I thought it was python :D https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey
