I appreciate the details shared in this paper but it'd be great if they open sourced their implementation!

I'm one of the contributors to this repo, so feel free to comment with any feedback! The key research contribution from the related paper is that with a moderate amount of data (eg. 12M image pairs from CC12M) and a moderate amount of

To the comments about this being easy to defeat: when it comes to detecting whether a person submitted a document containing LLM generated text (whether a law document, school essay, work document etc) the real value in a technique like thi

I’d start by either stepping through the program (gdb, pdb, or a debugger of your choice) or adding more test cases - that’s often a quick way to understand what a piece of code is doing. Either way I wouldn’t leave it as is, that’s just a

It may just be a fake scenario but the actual solution there would be to implement the 1 hour fix without a single discussion or email. Sometimes the best way to tailor words for both engineers and managers is to 1) solve the problem then 2

Seems like a completely failed program to me. Any organization should be able to quantitatively prove their value on some level. As the article points out, for the DHS to say they do “not have information on [the air marshal program’s] effe

The generated "using it in a sentence" examples are often the funniest (and most absurd) part: chokebone choke·bone the muscle holding a prisoner down, used in controlling an animal or person such as a cat, dog, snake, sna

The more interesting question, left unaddressed by the article, is exactly how they were able to make the connection in the first place. Did they parse through millions of YouTube videos cataloging every tattoo and descriptive feature then

This seems like a pretty helpful educational tool — you could sprinkle it in a project's documentation to help clarify the exact formulas being used. I could also imagine people using this if they aren't that comfortable with LaTe

If you're specifically interested in recent work then it could be worth checking out arxiv for preprints of papers in the relevant field. For instance, here's a section on Programming Languages: https://arxiv.org/l

Personally, I might start by reading up on some background literature but ideally I'd move into a phase of building out an initial system as soon as possible. It's only when you really try to build something that you uncover assum

The stock market is not a direct reflection of how healthy the US economy is at large. As others have mentioned, gains in the stock market are being driven by a select group of companies that investors believe are poised to seize an advanta

Hey if I can make a small recommendation, I’d suggest putting some code examples directly in the readme. Currently the examples are buried multiple pages into the documentation, making it harder to evaluate the project at a glance

In my opinion, the most provocative point that this paper makes isn't just about general reproducibility issues or problems with comparing to a weak baseline — it’s that a number of these papers used improper methods to obtain their re

I used FlightCar for the first time literally last night. I signed up right before I boarded and getting to the FlightCar location ended up being decently convoluted but I did get a pretty nice Mazda for the weekend. This morning I received

It seems like the post-mortems from people outside the founders circle, like early employees, competitors or investors are more honest and realistic about the factors that led to the company's demise. Founders sometimes try to reframe

This sounds really cool. I currently TA a CS course that deals primarily with OCaml so it is great to have real world applications/uses I can show to students in the class.

Exactly and the actual page rank of the site comes from finding the equilibrium distribution from the transition matrix, which in this case is called a Google matrix.

Interesting article, would have been helpful when I was writing a paper on Google PageRank since it is a markov chain. I do think it would be valuable to talk about equilibrium distributions and how you can determine the tendency of the sy

The look and feel is cool and so is the map view but I think you should add more information about why those areas are so great besides just restaurants and hotels. Like a main attractions section since people don't just choose areas b
