Stylistically ugly code that is globally consistent (ideally across the entire ecosystem) >> locally beautiful code that is inconsistent with the rest of the codebase / up to autho…

Yeah came here to comment exactly this. And this is generally why I dislike/avoid this type of first principle analysis: it can make very convincing arguments that are just totally…

[dead]

1.0 is actually pretty arbitrary and way too high as a general rule. Something like 0.3 is a more sensible default

And yet the monologue is a complete work of fiction, a script delivered by a talented actor that we still find moving. So what are these authentic experiences to you, or does it no…

Curious how they do a “blind” preference test. To any evaluator I’m sure it’s quite clear which answer is AI vs human.

Who designs a website like this?

We can use jj now, thank goodness. But I still miss my old git workflows + lazygit

I joined gdm recently, and previously used (neo)vim exclusively. Begrudgingly Cider-V is very, very good. It might be possible to get by without it, but the system is so locked dow…

As someone who basically only hangs out on HN, what are the trends on Reddit? I thought it would vary by channel

Throughput is a metric for the total number of tokens/sec for all users in the system. Latency (ITL,TTFT) are individual user metrics.

The guys previous post was how rabbit r1 is revolutionising the smartphone. So I would take this post with a grain (heap?) of salt

Made it to the 5th stage of grief

While I large agree, when I rely too much on agentic llm usage I come away feeling that I haven’t really learnt much over the session, and the code wasn’t really “mine”. It’s also …

Someone not familiar with the field rediscovering the stochastic parrot argument from 3+ years ago

Clearly not from the UK. By US standards Labour would be socialist, and conservative (right) liberal at best.

It’s a quite deceptive paper. The main headline benchmarks (math500, aime24 /25) final answer is just a number from 0-1000, so what is the takeaway supposed to be for pass@k of 512…

I get the same feeling that I'm "not being productive" while playing video games, watching tv, etc that seems to kill any enjoyment from doing these things. For me learning piano h…

Like, PyTorch? And the new Mac minis have 512gb of unified memory

I usually am a huge fan of “copilot” tools (I use cursor, etc) and Claude has always been my go to. But Sonnet 3.7 actually seems dangerous to me, it seems it’s been RL’d _way_ too…

I wholly disagree with the comic, but a anti AI art take I’m more sympathetic to: https://x.com/soi/status/1815584824033177606?s=46

I don’t think this hits at the heart of the issue? Even if we can catch AI text with 100% accuracy, any halfway decent student can rewrite it from scratch using o1s ideas in lieu o…

Just another +1 that if you’re going to give vscode a fair shot, it’s much better to go with vscode-neovim than the standard vim extension. You can even map most of your config rig…
