There's /some/ of it still in there. But most of it does only live on in a mine in Pennsylvania along with the rest of America's corporate and government history.

I think that definition is missing something, yes. Modern(?) British twee is less "dainty" and more "manic and campy". Which is not to disparage Monty Python, who were good at it, but everyone descended from them can&#x2

MTE (and PAC before it) store some metadata in previously unused pointer bits, so there are potential issues if you were already using those for something else. Oh and if your program has memory bugs then you have to fix them of course.

Lacan was also abusive to his students and clients, charged them incredible amounts of money, and eventually his psychiatry sessions devolved into being about five minutes long. He was basically a cult leader. There seemed to be something g

It's more like MTE was originally intended as a debugging tool (like ASan), and MTE4 makes it work as a security hardening measure.

It does.

I watched some of it at the time and thought it was cool, but never paid much attention. When I checked in again around the Matt Smith era it seemed to have become, um, unwatchably twee[0]. Was that on purpose or are the people who work on

I actually did this because I use my TV as a monitor, and I had to upgrade the GPU to get better framerates over HDMI.

It's partly because floating point math is not associative and GPU inference doesn't guarantee all the steps will be done in the same order.

I think it'd be more interesting if you made a camera that took verifiably fake photos that were guaranteed to be nothing like what you pointed it at.

VSCode certainly does use the GPU, that's how you get 120fps scrolling.

Nah, because it's new. 3.5 didn't emdash and I don't think 4 even did. Besides, LLMs' basin of high quality text is Wikipedia.

They didn't always em-dash. I expect it's intentional as a watermark. Other buzzwords you can spot are "wild" and "vibes".

A movie projector will have fading or black frame insertion between each frame. An OLED displays the picture completely still and then instantly changes to the next one. If you're looking closely, that will seem unnatural. It's wo

You can violate the plan in the sampler by making an "unreasonable" choice of next token to sample (eg by raising the temperature.) So if it does stick to the same plan, it's not going to be a very good one.

by astrange 1y ago
You want either motion smoothing (of the 60->120fps kind) or black frame insertion on an OLED for good motion, otherwise the lack of decay between frames will make it look unnaturally juddery.

If your issue is "incorrect answers" (hallucination) then an embedding search will naturally also produce "incorrect answers" because an embedding is a lossy compression of the source.

ChatGPT thinking mode is definitely the best search engine (wrapper) I've ever used, and you should be using it to find sources.
