Checking the validity of a given proof is deterministic, but filling in the proof in the first place is hard. It's like Chess, checking who wins for a given board state is easy, but coming up with the next move is hard. Of course, one

Some Chinese language source claims that it's a reaction to the Pakistan-US rare earth deal. My pet theory is that this is intended as an attack to the concept of long-arm jurisdiction itself, due to 1. This is the first ever long-arm

From the title I thought they solved math! Turns out to be a framework to use SMT solvers for decision-based proof. For additional types, you still need to write the bridging part. Interesting nonetheless.

I believe Codex CLI also auto compacts when the context limit is met, but in addition to that, you can manually issue a /compact command at any time.

Nice. When using OpenAI Codex CLI, I find the /compact command very useful for large tasks. In a way it's similar to the context editing tool. Maybe I can ask it to use a dedicated directory to simulate the memory tool.

Duolingo is useful, but not efficient. When people say I want to learn a language, they often mean I want to learn this language efficiently , e.g. to be able to write an essay like the post says after a realistic period of time. I persona

Yep, that's exactly what happened in China. Once the tech giants did 996 without punishment, every employer wants this as well.

asyncio by itself doesn't support asynchronous file I/O, see their wiki: https://github.com/python/asyncio/wiki/ThirdParty#filesystem You have to use something like aiofiles to do that.

I think the crux is that specification has been neglected since even before AI. Stakeholders (client, managers) have been "vibe coding" all along. They send some vague descriptions and someone magically gives back a solution. Does

Imagine a former Huawei executive joins PLA, all hell would break loose. Somehow it's more moral or patriotic for these guys. Seems like the hawkish were right all along.

In the context of this paper, I think "generalizable reasoning" means that finding a method to solve the puzzle and thus being able to execute the method on puzzle instances of arbitrary complexity.
