Around 10 years ago, I had an brain MRI with contrast. I specifically googled it and found a paper saying it builds up in the brain. I asked the MRI specialist about it, she was surprised I knew this and said she was familiar with the resea

With temp = 0 if the model is off by one bit at step k, all subsequent steps are deterministically wrong. Your previous example shows the best case, which is a model can sometimes follow a textual recipe for long multiplication on short inp

It doesn't work like mapping CPU caches/registers into an LLM context. Transformers have no mutable registers, they attend over past tokens and can't update prior state. RAG isn't RAM. Even with huge context, you still c

I do. Routers, switches, and power redundancy are solved problems in datacenter hardware. Network outages rarely occur because of these systems, and if any component goes down, there's usually an automatic failover. The only thing you

Do you mean three weeks of manual work (no LLM) vs MCP? Or MCP vs LLM tool use? Because that's a huge difference.

Most of them run Debian (some have Windows VMs running on those Debian machines), while a minority use Ubuntu. I reboot them once every few years when I upgrade the OS, kernel, or migrate to newer machine types. I run most of the workloads

I've been using dedicated servers for 20 years. Here's my top list: Hetzner, OVH, Leaseweb, and Scaleway (EU locations only). I've used other providers as well, but I won't mention them because they were either too small

You don't need experience and there is not really a lot to know about "distributed systems" in this case, that's basic CS knowledge about networks, latency and what "serverless" actually is, you can read about

Exactly this. If you do not have the capability to produce as much conventional weaponry as your enemy (especially if that enemy also has a nuclear arsenal) then you've lost. Sitting in the Whitehouse facing the red button, you ask you

The JV rule is gone. China removed the foreign ownership cap in autos on a staged schedule with NEVs in 2018, commercial vehicles in 2020 and passenger cars from the start of 2022. The old "max two JVs" rule was lifted at the same
