Interesting that they are doubling down on censorship ("safety and robustness"), given that a major advantage of DeepSeek is its lack of refusals in deployed variants and open weights (can't patch-in more censorship in weight

One wonders at which point models will be sneaky enough to bypass simple eval sandboxes. The article has: # Evaluate the equation with restricted globals and locals result = eval(equation, {"__builtins__": None}, {})

I cringe every time I see "my IQ increased by X points after doing Y" posts on Twitter - yes, you had a practice run on Raven's progressive matrices a month ago, that helped, these have a limited question bank and the effect

Many organizations have a shadow org chart that you won't learn from the website but will get some sense of that structure in human interactions like calls.

The email TfL sent [1] to traintimes.org.uk ISP looks like a catch-all sent in haste. For example, it doesn't even mention the map. Instead, it invokes trademark registration numbers but these resolve [2] to LONDON UNDERGROUND and UNDE

Indeed no proof. By "in practice" I meant "on instances encountered in real-world applications."

Of course, dividing search space into K pieces is not guaranteed to give you a speed-up _in the worst case_: you might pick an unlucky division where K-1 pieces are easily UNSAT but the last remaining piece is as hard as the original (so th

Torrenting hasn't been the most popular form of piracy for a while: many subscribe to a couple streaming services and use pirate streaming sites to fill in the gaps [1]. This is so prevalent that even entertainment industry talent use

Similar things can also happen with file systems: ext4 mounted -o ro will let the driver do filesystem recovery even if userspace writes are prevented.

Exactly. Sacred architecture flows necessarily from essence (what church is) through substance (can't be accident or easy-to-vary) into form (matter receiving truth). Regrettably, accidents get commonly confused for substance like mist

What are good starting points for uncensoring it? Because it is offline a jailbreak prompt can't be remote-bricked but can one remove censorship from the weights themselves? What does it do to accuracy?

I have an M3 but the battery life is not that great -- because you still want to run a Linux VM for actual engineering.

Furthermore, a lot of users have substantial latency introduced by their setups - for example, earlier Bluetooth headphones like AirPods 1 add 300ms of latency (126ms for AirPods 2 Pro) https://stephencoyle.net/airpods-pro-2

It's not arbitrary at all! We know that primes themselves get rarer and rarer (density of primes < N is ~1/log(N)), so it is natural to ask whether the gaps between them must also necessarily increase and, in general, how are t

Exactly. You can still register new domains under .su, even though the evil empire hasn't existed since well before the web became popular, and both Russia and formerly occupied and now independent nations have their own TLDs now.

But familiarity gets more remote as you need larger and larger (or, smaller and smaller) multipliers. It's far more illustrative to say "the volume of a typical gas tank" than "the internal volume of hundred million popp

There are multiple attacks in that video. IP is one, but a much bigger one is knowing the real output (or maybe real output plus one other output) among 16 ring signature members. They do not explain how they achieved it but one could guess

showdead is essential for Orange Reddit but it will show downvoted comments in unreadable light grey on light grey. So you probably want a user CSS (e.g., with Stylus) like this (italic and the particular color are to taste, of course):
