At a quick glance, the minimal memory requirement is the O(N) partial solutions you need to keep, with N being the number of rows. Is your comment that this is higher than the memory requirement of the recursive solution, because that doesn

> Even just keeping the partial solutions in memory that will later be needed can use much more memory than a bottom up solution. Can you give an example of this? I don't think that is correct. But we might be saying the same thing,

I think "cached recursion" is too broad. I tend to go with "Minimal Memory Memoization". 1) the recursion solution is often too slow, but uses little memory. 2) the memoization solution can make the algorithms from 1 a l

Earth without land masses would have around 0.5m to 1.5m of tides, depending if it is springs or neaps. All the higher amplitude tides are caused by resonance in the sea. The North Sea and the Channel and Irish straight are quite resonant.

The issue is clarified with a map like this: https://i.redd.it/rontertecjqd1.jpeg Most regions have very small tidal ranges. That doesn't mean they have small tidal currents (think of fjords or straights for example),

It might be computable, but is it practical? It sounds like it requires a stack of exponentials in compute time, and is impractical even for very short messages.

It's a pet peeve of mine, but "publications" and "peer-review" are not really part of the scientific process? Just like "academia" they have kind of grown onto the term, almost claiming it for their own. I

Why the golden ratio? Because the continued fraction of the golden ratio is all 1's [0]. So it is uniquely hard to approximate with a rational number. The golden ratio is the bound on Hurwitz's theorem [1]. And avoiding a rational

I take my quip both ways, so I would wager that even with finetuning, these models are only 1 generation ahead in esoteric language performance and therefore _still not very good_. Am I correct?

I've been finetuning these models since before chatGPT, and the one lesson I've learned is that by the time you have set up everything to fine-tune a model, you can expect a newer model to do as well with prompt-tuning. So, unless

No, 10x less sampling steps. Whether or not that means 10x faster remains to be seen, as a diffusion step tends to be more expensive than an autoregressive step.

Sure, but the lesson is that the big story is what matters, way more than detailed RoR calculations. Bob made huge mistakes, but even then compounding was the stronger force and he ended up ahead.
