Thanks for the link. Article makes it look like nothing happened in the embed/low-memory/single-threaded malloc space in decades since Doug Lea's malloc. I just implemented TLSF for my minimal Wasm libc: fragmentation is just

But we are. The models can't even follow the rules: they try illegal moves all the time.

The problem then, is giving them (humans, AIs) unchecked power.

I think the idea is that it being case preserving is sufficient to allow decrypting the filenames. And I guess it relies on the 31 (32?) bit blocks, to make colisions unlikely for short filenames.

That doesn't really apply to the people running the AI, which gave it the capability to commit crimes. They don't get to act like victims, asking for law enforcement.

You can make curry with them (either just the peels, or whole unripe bananas).

Curious where my wasm2go would stand compared to wazero. I should test it myself. :) https://github.com/ncruces/wasm2go

Perelman posted to arXiv in 2002/3. The prize was offered to him in 2010, after multiple others had digested his work and published elsewhere.

I read that as “the model didn't look up user data” as part of a “tool call,” i.e. they don't have an internal tool that loads user data (chats, sessions, attachments) for their internal models to read online while working. Or (

Due to Iran, they're cutting oil/fuel imports 30% YoY, and consumption by the transportation sector by 5~10%.

There's nothing about random access at that link. There's this, but it doesn't seem to be getting much traction: https://github.com/facebook/zstd/tree/dev/contrib/seekable_f...

It's easy to do a VFS that handles instant forking (snapshots). Here's an in-memory one I made (pretty useful for unit tests): https://github.com/ncruces/go-sqlite3/tree/main/vfs/mvcc The

Yes, and the person engaged with them is pointing out that more complex solutions exist because someone added other requirements. Maybe “I want a configurable chime” is just a less popular requirement than “I want to be notified on my pho
