Yes, but we're speaking in English. If the definition of a same-sounding word changes in another language, it doesn't invalidate a point made within a language. It's fundamentally …

10^9 is the standard definition of a billion, it's very wrong to call 10^12 a "standard billion." You can say "long scale billion" if you want to refer to the definitively non-stan…

I'm not sure what kind of point you're trying to make. There are projects to train competent modern LLMs in which the entire pipeline (data, training process, final weights) is all…

Olmo 3? K2 V2? There are definitely LLMs with very compelling capabilities where the dataset, training process, and final weights are all open. There are also initiatives in the EU…

I experience this too, but the danger is is making assumptions based on "tells" which might just be how the user wrote the post. It's a situation now where if someone authentically…

The real problem is not terms like "load-bearing," which communicate clearly enough. It's the constant invention of cryptic shorthand terms and phrases that have no referent, and e…

There is nothing called "GPT5.5 Codex" unless I've completely misunderstood OpenAI's product line? Codex is a harness, while GPT-5.5 is a model. The last codex-branded model was 5.…

Kinda reads to me like: "I'm not worried about prompt injection anymore because I setup a test where my agent could just ignore the input channel as noise, and a bunch of comically…

Comment #48691032
Well said. This experiment is extremely unrealistic and gave the model the opportunity to simply refuse to deal with the channel outright. If he had built it to be a functional age…

From the article: > LongMemEval rewards recovering literal witnesses: exact dates, counts, preferences, and spans that often remain stable under tokenization. Is this saying they c…

How is this not a Github P0? Can anyone explain? When I read that, I thought they must be using 'fork' wrong, and actually mean branch on the official repo, as that can't be right!…

I practiced the Buteyko method for many years when I was in states of high anxiety and frequent panic attacks, and it was incredibly helpful. I had a syndrome called new daily pers…

Comment #46338855
Buteyko practioners build up the ability to work very hard while only nasal breathing over the long term. The point is to learn to modulate breathing in a way that keeps a certain …

I struggle to understand what this specifically has to do with rails or global IDs. In ANY framework or query system, if you are asking an LLM to produce IDs which you are then pas…

I don't understand how code review would catch this. The extension advertises itself as an AI protection tool, that monitors your AI interactions. The code is basically consistent …

So you can get native behaviors when it’s critical. Like share sheets, push and many other critical features that only apps get even if the bulk of the experience can be done in a …

Yes "good" caching - a consistent storage interface - is an abstraction over "bad" caching - multiple different storage interfaces with different speeds. But caching overall is not…

don't confuse the actual R1 (671b params) with the distilled models (the ones that are plausible to run locally.) Just as you shouldn't conclude about how o1 behaves when you are u…

"Looking cool" IS a component of UX. UX includes the user's emotional experience of using the product. It is 100% acceptable to do something for UX that is otherwise bad "UI". Whil…

So this identifies keys from source and target objects that are fuzzy synonyms and copies the values over. What is a real world use case for this? Add the fact that it's fuzzy and …
