> To be fair, TurboQuant is also a purely theoretical paper. I just wanted to get this out and share. TurboQuant is not a purely theoretical paper. Section 4 "Experiments" (page 15…

Yeah, for me Claude identified the phrase "this holds with probability 1 over random weight matrices since the null space has dimension" Treating trained weights as random for the …

The grid is not all energy use. To get the numbers on an even playing field you need to compensate for that only ~40% of energy goes through the grid. And that leaves a 6:1 ratio a…

> Also, I'm not sure about your math. 4% would be 4% of the whole like in a pie chart, not 4% of the remainder after removing one slice. 4% AI, 30% transportation, 66% other. I don…

Comment #47509746
Compare that to ~30% of all energy use for transportation. So approximately 40%*4% = 1.6% vs 30%. I find your correction to be more wrong that the initial statement. > And most of …

I agree that the movements look quite robotic (though not as much as you might expect), but I don't think any movies have depicted robots moving like that. A much more common depic…

You would not. You don't normally post lots of comments. The occasional return after a long period of inactivity is not in itself suspicious.

The d suffix makes it not compile under clang. The PRs seem like mostly small changes that are clear improvements.

The criteria were laid out in 2019 [0]. It was less clear then. > If you are a "rustacean" and feel that Rust already meets the preconditions listed above, and that SQLite should b…

Based on Table 1: This method is actually worse than generating a random number (0-100% independent of the program) and testing if it is less than 98.8%. That would achieve a bette…

I have seen many people try to use Claude Code and get LOTS of bugs. Show me any > 10k project you have made with it and I will put the effort in to find one bug free of charge.

Which ones of those have been achieved in your opinion? I think the arbitrary proofs from mathematical literature is probably the most solved one. Research into IMO problems, and L…

I would hope god can do better than 40% on a test. If you select experts from the relevant fields humans, they together would get a passing grade (70%) at least. A group of 20 huma…

In this paper both the diffusion and the auto-regressive models are transformers with O(n^2) performance for long sequences. They share the "Exact KV Cache" for committed tokens. D…

The first iteration vectorized with numpy is the best solution imho. The only additional optimization is using modulo 9 to give you a sum of digits mod 9; that should filter out ap…

What "O(1)-state shuffle" could you possibly be talking about? It takes `O(nlogn)` space to store a permutation of list of length n. Any smaller and some permutations will be unrep…
