More than just the language, with objc on mac you also get to take advantage of the surrounding stdlib. Toll-free bridging between CF and Cocoa, libdispatch which provides intuitive primitives for concurrency, etc. It's a shame that de

>you have to manually rebase every subsequent change What do you mean by this? You can do an interactive rebase in git as well. The real issue is non-trivial merge conflicts which is going to be an issue no matter you use.

Has there been an "arms race" of sorts with programming contests, as knowledge percolates and harder categories of problems need to be chosen? Since these days dynamic programming is basically table stakes for ICPC-type problems.

Except generating more tokens also effectively extends the computational power beyond the depth of the circuit, which is why chain of thought works in the first place. Even sampling only dummy tokens that don't convey anything still pr

At least for LLMs, the platonic representation hypothesis doesn't seem that surprising. The training data for models that are large enough to faithfully capture reality will necessarily have a lot of overlap. So in this weak form the p

Assuming a 60Hz refresh rate, does it take ~16ms (± the vblank inteval) for a complete cycle from top-left to bottom-right? Or does the scan happen faster than that (with something else being the limiting factor on overall refresh rate)?

Although thinking a bit more, even constrained to only output dots, there can still some amount of information passing between each token, namely in the hidden states. The attention block N layers deep will compute attention scores off of t

Firefox should have appealed to the developer/hacker demographic. Instead they've made every effort to alienate those demographics in trying to appeal to the general public. They were never going to be able to compete against Goog

The same way it's done with V3, because no permission-level blacklist/whitelist is going to prevent the person from creating an interpreter within JS itself. Looking at https://developer.chrome.com/docs/websto

>an extension could spoof it not if they make it dynamic somehow (e.g. include current day in hash). Then with MV3 changes that prevent dynamic header manipulation there is no way for an extension to spoof it.

One of the main goals of MV3 seems to be nullifying protection against tracking URLs. Most of the discussion about adblocking technically "still working" under MV3 misses this point. It doesn't matter if you're actually

>They decided it wasn't a security issue, and honestly, I agree, because it didn't give extensions access to data they didn't already have. So they admit that MV3 isn't actually any more secure than MV2?

Probably the results were worse than K2 model released today. No serious engineer would say it's for "safety" reasons given that ablation nullifies any safety post-training.

interesting, I thought one of the whole points of o3 was mixed multimodal reasoning (e.g. everyone doing those geoguesser challenges). But maybe that's just a parlor trick and it's not actually implemented that way. I wonder when

I thought so too back when the test was first released, but now that we have multimodal models which can take images directly as input, shouldn't this point be moot?
