I'd like to add a few failure modes: - LLM removes/disables/weakens tests (disallowing manipulation of tests is not really possible in Python since the language is too dynamic, so …

> But on a tangent, why do you believe in mixture of experts? The fact that all big SoTA models use MoE is certainly a strong reason. They are more difficult to train, but the effi…

Even with inflated RAM prices, you can buy a Strix Halo Mini PC with 128GB unified memory right now for less than 2k. It will run gpt-oss-120b (59 GB) at an acceptable 45+ tokens p…

Looks like the pop-ups that cover 70 % of my netbook's screen are still there: https://i.imgur.com/uPbVW2o.png I wonder if getting rid of those pop-ups would have slowed Stack Over…

To put it into your metaphor: I am not advocating against the existence of bandsaws. I would just rather have bandsaws that do not cut off your fingers if you do not read a book ab…

If most people are not using a tool properly, it is not their fault; it is the tool's fault. Git is better than what came before, and it might be the best at what it does, but that…

You can still be excited! Recently, GLM-OCR was released, which is a relatively small OCR model (2.5 GB unquantized) that can run on CPU with good quality. I've been using it to di…

Were there any particular challenges when implementing your library? I have implemented my own serialization library [1] (with a focus on not allowing arbitrary code execution), bu…

A word of caution: There are SVGs which can freeze a page, so make sure that you do not link to any third party SVGs. This is a known bug, but both the Google Chrome and Mozilla te…

Here is another inference implementation in Python (only dependency is PyTorch). https://github.com/99991/SimpleTinyLlama The new checkpoints did not seem much better and they chan…

I found CLIP to be _amazing_ for all kinds of image search, like search-by-text or search-by-image. I even ported it to NumPy to understand it better. The whole thing is less than …

If you ever use the middle mouse button to open links in a new tab, you should disable this "feature" because it is a security vulnerability which allows for grabbing the clipboard…

Can't you just unplug the Ethernet cable/turn off the Wi-Fi module? (At least if the website was not lazy-loading resources.)

I also implemented a batched client-side web tool to resize photos to a certain file size (in a few hundred lines of JS). It only supports JPEG, but it resizes photos almost instan…

There are SVGs which will crash most browsers, so SVGs could still be abused for denial-of-service attacks. For example, you could post one of those SVGs in every issue thread of a…
