Is this not the good kind of problem to have? Subnautica 2 is doing so well that the developers get their earn-out bonus? Seems like pure profit-maximizing/greed!

I can hardly believe my eyes! I helped do some related research specifically concerning thin-film drainage from tubes, way back in my undergraduate days: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.…

a 90% saving is huge isn't it? for long agent sessions, I would expect a very high cache hit rate unless you're editing the system prompt, tools, or history between turns, or some …

So long as perceived LLM skill is still "spiky" - e.g. within a domain, still showing relatively high variation in ability (often depending on the task or user, to be fair), people…

In the general case I think this is a great idea - if we do a good job of documenting intent etc. in commit messages, agents have an easier time understanding why lines of code exi…

Coding agents are such a congested space right now that to me this mostly reads as an advertisement.

I have 150Mb/s FTTP for £37/month - upgrading to gigabit would be £75/month, for example!

Interesting that non-salty water didn't make the string conductive(?) enough - I'd have thought that there might have been enough soluble stuff in string. Also I believe this perso…

For me, a lot of the draw is that it's cheaper than managed db services for small/toy projects of mine (that I don't want to use dynamo db for) - that and in a previous job it was …

The partner for these projects has a benchmark that the top frontier LLM labs seem to be running on their new model releases - I think there's _some_ value to these numbers in help…

I think that "manipulate people for financial and political gain" is an outcome of what social media companies actually do - I was under the belief that in a general sense, they wa…

Some mild whataboutery: is the purpose of a cancer ward to fail to cure a large fraction of its patients[0]? https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/come-on-obviously-the-purpo...

Both miracles are illness-recovery related and feel to me quite like regression to the mean, but I can imagine this is somewhat of a strategic move from the Catholic church to brin…

For me, the USP Warp used to have was generating shell commands from prompts inside the terminal - but Cursor has had this in its embedded terminal for a while now so increasingly …

the icann wiki has some articles for these: https://icannwiki.org/.agakhan https://icannwiki.org/.ismaili https://icannwiki.org/.imamat

> One of the consequences of this is that we should always consider asking the LLM the same question more than once, perhaps with some variation in the wording. Then we can compare…

Anecdotally I think I have heard "what all" most commonly spoken by Indian English speakers - though that's probably quite far outside the scope of this site.

>Ah yes. An unverifiable claim followed by "just google them yourself". Some agent scaffolding performs better on benchmarks than others given the same underlying base model - see …

It appears that e2b runs Firecracker microVMs ( https://e2b.dev/blog/how-manus-uses-e2b-to-provide-agents-wi... ) It shouldn't be too hard to get a Firecracker orchestrator running…

By no means are better background agents "mythical" as you claim. I didn't bother to mention them as it is easy enough to search for asynchronous/background agents yourself. Devin …

I've worked somewhere where CORBA was used very heavily and to great effect - though I suspect the reason for our successful usage was that one of the senior software engineers wor…

I have a biased opinion since I work for a background agent startup currently - but there are more (and better!) out there than Jules and Copilot that might address some of the aut…

I am suspicious that the buffalo mozzarella registers as "tangy" at all - though I suppose it travelled quite a long way
