I learned from a recent post ( https://sean.heelan.io/2025/05/22/how-i-used-o3-to-find-cve-... ) that finding security issues can take 100+ calls to an LLM to get good signal. So I wonder about agent implemente

Alright, having tried this with Japanese I can say it's frustrating. As a near complete beginner the tutor kept speaking in Japanese even when I said "sorry I don't understand" repeatedly and then when I asked it to star

Which spaced repetition algorithm are you using? I recently learned that there is a much improved one that has been adopted by Anki. ( https://domenic.me/fsrs/ ) Have you adopted that as well?

That's not a given, Anthropic recently added Claude CLI access to their $20/m "Pro" plan removing the need for a separate API key.

I love how fragmented Google's Gemini offerings are. I'm a Pro subscriber, but I now learn I should be a "Gemini Code Assist Standard or Enterprise" user to get additional usage. I didn't even know that existed! As

Interesting! I'd love to know more about how you built this. Also as a small note the twitter / linkedin buttons at the bottom of the page don't seem to do anything but point to the page itself.

Can I suggest, don't do this? The sustainable unit of code modification is the ticket, not the commit. When you're ready to merge to main, squash all commits into one that takes the ticket title as its commit message and appends t

Failure or not I have to say thank you to this guy. This left Jeff Hawkins with a substantial personal fortune which he went on to use to found Numenta. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there and none of that would have been possible without th

Several discussions here should be making references to literate programming but as far as I can see, haven't. For the curious and/or Knuth fans: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming

The most interesting and significant bit of this article for me was that the author ran this search for vulnerabilities 100 times for each of the models. That's significantly more computation than I've historically been willing to

I applaud this effort, however the "Does it work?" section answers the wrong question. Anyone can write a trivial doc compressor and show a graph saying "The compressed version is smaller!" For this to "work" y

For some perspective we have not yet scaled robot training. The amount of data that Pi is using to train their impressively capable robots is in the range of thousands of hours of data. In contrast language models are trained over trillions
