VERY interested, are you planning on writing a blog? If so I would definitely read that post.

iirc most of the energy comes from memory IO not arithmetic, so it's still not great. A better direction, though.

Saying "red tribe" is a pretty dead giveaway of, say, a certain way of thinking. George Soros or Bill Gates will never be able to buy their own department for reasons that the people with the tribalist lens can't seem to gras

Still looking for the people on hn who eight months ago said that this would be a good thing to come out and admit not only that they were wrong, but the model of the world and their way of absorbing info that led them to such a conclusion

I'm a bit worried - there could be idiosyncratic links that these models learn that causes deanonymization. Ideally you could just add a forget loss to prevent this... but how do you add a forget loss if you don't have all of the

Ah yes, the climate concerned citizens of Florida. It so happens that they don't seem particularly concerned as far as macro solutions are concerned.

if someone believes this, they should buy intel and just do it outright! But no one does because it's not as easy as "just think long term" - if it were, berkshire has the liquid money to buy intel several times over.

The big worry about this is with increasingly hard to make but useful quantizations, such as nvfp4. There aren't many available, so unless you want to jump through the hoops yourself you have to grab one available from the internet and

The real thing that I hope someone is able to solve is downloading such huge amounts of unnecessary code. As I understand, the bulk of the torch binary is just a huge nvfatbin compiled for every SM under the sun when you usually just want i

Needle in a haystack is not a good evaluation though - even famously bad llama 4 does well on that benchmark.

I've been waiting on this for a LONG time. Integration with Cursor when Cerebras released their earlier models was patchy at best, even through openrouter. It's nice to finally see official support, although I'm a bit worried

This is substantially better than really bad apartments that are expensive or nice apartments that are very expensive! It is not actually more complex, you don't spend ~40% of CPI on apparel.

You have the causality backward - housing explains ~100% of the variation of inequality. If you liberalized zoning, excess inequality would more or less disappear: https://www.brookings.edu/wp-content/uploads/2016&

They have a cost advantage. Kinda fine for where I'm standing; if we want to have more investment, we must liberalize migration! If we don't liberalize migration, necessarily the capital-labor ratio will be more capital-scarce in
