It's also important to remember that vibe coders throw away the natural language spec each time they close the context window. Vibe coding is closer to compiling your code, throwing the source away and asking a friend to give you sourc

But it’s priced at a growth rate less than Walmart’s. That’s hardly an extreme growth outlier.

when you consider AMZN's p/e ratio is under 35 and WMT is closer to 45, what makes you think this?

It doesn't though. As an aside, I have been using a competitor to chatgpt health (nori) for a while now, and I have been getting an extreme amount of targeted ads about HRV and other metrics that the app consumes. I have been collectin

Reproducible can have a lot of meanings. Nix guarantees that your build environment + commands are the same. It still uses all the usual build tools and it would be trivial to create a non-reproducible binary (--impure).

Nix is where we're going. Maybe not with the configuration language that annoys python devs, but declarative reproducible system closures are a joy to work with at scale.

If you don't think a foreign diplomat's comments about a counterparty nation are potentially biased, we don't have enough common ground to warrant further discussion.

"says chief EU research diplomat" -- leaving off half the sentence sure does change the quote.

OAI also got talent mined. Their top intellectual leaders left after fight with sama, then Meta took a bunch of their mid-senior talent, and Google had the opposite. They brought Noam and Sergey back.

counterpoint: we should make energy abundant enough that it really doesn't matter if sama wants to generate gpt-shirt ads or not. we have the capability, we just stopped making power more abundant.

Is this the "fault" or is it just the result of rational economic actors?

If you don't mind stretching your brain a bit, Wittgenstein was obsessed with this notion. https://www.bu.edu/wcp/Papers/Educ/EducMaru.htm#:~:text=Witt...

Mars transit takes far longer than one week. And their plan is in orbit refueling so getting a single starship to Mars takes more than one ship.

I'm sure someone else has mentioned this but your video on the main page correctly has GRPO the first time it's introduced but then every time you mention it after that -- you've swapped it to GPRO.

AI may actually be the death of capitalism. Markets are no longer efficient when pricing models are opaque and personalized.

It's silly, but in the LLM world - "open source" is usually used to mean "weights are published". This is not to be confused with the software licensing meaning of "open source".

It’s hard enough for me to get time to review actual PRs, who are these engineers trawling through the drafts?

Very strange. I find reasoning has very narrow usefulness for me. It's great to get a project in context or to get oriented in the conversation, but on long conversations I find reasoning starts to add way too much extraneous stuff and

if you could get this working on embedded arm cpus, I think you'd be surprised how many customers there would be.

Is this a joke? I'd put Airflow almost on the level of postgres in terms of popularity (it's the most popular workflow manager).

I don’t think anyone is claiming that Deepseek didn’t produce a very impressive frontier model. They’re just saying it’s not surprising that, in your analogy, flipping the single bit was cheaper than the prior work.

by drawnwren 2y ago
They aren’t though. $5M is the cost of a single training run. $500B includes the cost of operations, data center, a lot more failed runs because they weren’t sure that they’d were on the right path etc.

deepseek is what you want. comparable quality to sonnet and by the fastest of the llms.
