    Likely many points along the pareto frontier. Some will take greater risks and win (or lose); others will play it safer and slowly accumulate wins (or be obsoleted). Never mind the…

    There's a followup study to identify the actual cause of such a surprising outcome https://www.arxiv.org/abs/2506.19823 The combined use of faithful-chain-of-thought + mechanistic …

    I think it's not going well? I keep getting to the start a new call page, it fails, and takes me back to the live page. I assume your servers are on fire, but implementing some mes…

    All of your examples have had multiple cases of going down, some for multiple days (2011 AWS was the first really long one I think) - or potentially worse, just deleting all custom…

    Does anyone have a pdf of all of the pages together? This seems great to listen to as a NotebookLM podcast on a commute to work on Monday. Better yet, if someone has already _done_…

    Interesting! Always interesting to see the ideas in the air at the same time! https://linzumi.com/ Definitely think this sort of idea could become the "serverless" equivalent for m…

    My absolute favorite overview of this - the video goes over both the explanation of the spaces, but also how it relates to a sort of understanding of reality itself! https://youtu.…

    That sounds pretty fun (once you're finished with it, I'm sure)! How does sniffing the USB work? Do you do that via some software/kernel extension, via special hardware, or somethi…

    Yes, that wasn't a priority here, but I also don't think it's much of a concern with e.g. GPT-4's `system` vs `assistant` vs `user` roles. Would be another thing to work on, but no…

    I’ve been doing the same thing with a number of projects, building chains of prompts from one api call to another e.g. for ConjureUI (self-creating, iterable UIs that come into exi…

    I haven't put much effort into it yet, but I've found it to be somewhere in the middle of an independent story teller and a human-amplifying story teller. For example, having it gi…

    "Up or out" is perhaps a form of this - keep a stream of pressure over the org so you don't have any careerist settling in and (eventually) clogging up the productivity. I don't kn…

    I strongly suspect you might be disappointed. Battery collection and recycling - even as “raw ore” - should be easily profitable with plenty of motivated parties eventually. In the…
