Token efficiency is a good argument actually.

> This suggests that scaling alone won't eliminate incoherence. As more capable models tackle harder problems, variance-dominated failures persist or worsen. This is a big deal, but are they only looking at auto-regressive models?

I don't think it's fair to say there's no skill in it - one of the new problems with AI coding that I have found, is I now have to go away and think more.

I like to use the term "--no-clobber", so to set a script to not delete any information but re-use the previous configuration or files, otherwise error out if not possible.

It's a really bad time for Microsoft to force consumers to upgrade - even computer parts from 5 years ago are price hiking.

Doesn't say it's programmers though but middle management: > Amazon slashed 14,000 white-collar jobs in late October, with CEO Andy Jassy stressing the need for the company to eliminate *excessive bureaucracy* by trimming ope

A lot of large companies lay off swags of technical staff regularly (or watch them leave), and rotate CEOs but their middle management have jobs for life - as the Peter Principe states, they are promoted to their highest respective incompet

The thing about C-suite executives is they usually have short tenures, however the management levels below them are often cozy in their bureaucracy, resist change, often trying to outlast the new management. I actually argue that AI will t

But where I am, managers don't delegate work, they assign work.

"WHY IS IT THAT MANAGERS ARE typically running out of time while their subordinates are typically running out of work?" This was written in 1974 and times have surely changed because I never wonder this. Instead I wonder why sub

That's essentially the manifold hypothesis of machine learning, right?

Regarding your first point, this makes me wonder if diffusion models will be the future of constrained decoding.

by bjt12345 9mo ago
To use constrained decoding like this, you really need to use an open weight model or can this be done using OpenAI, Claude, Gemini...etc?

I honestly think middle management will be where AI causes job cuts. In today's corporate environment, 70% of the costs are in management and admin muddlement, do we really think these "people skills" translate into anything

How does wireguard interfere with email?

How would another service be impacted by an open UDP port on a server that the service is not using?
47.
by bjt12345 9mo ago
SSH is TCP though and the outside world can initiate a handshake, the point being that wireguard silently discards unauthenticated traffic - there's no way they can know the port is open for listening.

I've always thought this was inspired by the depiction of food in earlier arcade games like Bubble Bobble.

What occurs when this process is reversed - translate from lean to informal english, and does iterating this then help research better approaches toward writing proofs in human language?

It's an engineering reason really, the entire reason why MFTs were so popular when they came out was because people were tired of lugging around their Full-Frame camera's zoom lens, and were sick of missing moments when using a pr

It's interesting that the Roland DSP does eloquently map to solutions in the z-domain, and allow easy implementation of FIR/IIR filters. It's not surprising they doubled the clock rate to 88.2kHz to simplify anti-aliasing, bu

I'm surprised to learn that lean defines the natural number 1/0 as 0.

Here's my take on it though... Just as we had the golden era of the internet in the late 90s, when the WWW was an eden of certificate-less homepages with spinning skulls on geocities without ad tracking, we are now in the golden era of

What I find strange about Google, is that there's a lot of illegal advertising on Google maps - things like accomodation and liquor sellers that don't have permits. However, if they do it for the statutory term, they can then succ

This is a fantastic idea, as the exam becomes part of the teaching - if you sit there for 5 hours wishing you prepared your study better, that's an invaluable lesson. I suspect the reason why it does not occur more commonly is simply b

Surely there's better technological solutions for encrypting block data in the cloud with lower risks of service ensh*tification?
