When you say >That’s when I realized: the words you feed into a model shape its long-term behavior. Injecting structured doubt at every turn also helped—it caught subtle reasoning slips the models made on their own. Was that not obvious

Ironically, somewhere around 2014, Google was doing the exact same style "keep Android open" campaign, recruiting developers around the world - including me, to help lobby for keeping Android "open" and tell the horror

It's so funny to see this be a worldwide phenomenon. As someone who grew up playing in the ruins of Roman temples & villas and was obsessed with it as a child, it almost feels like people are talking about "some other Rome&quo

Ironically, that's the thing I've been preaching to devs all along. We need to simplify the DX; both for us, the machines and the new folks who dont know how to code. A lot of the overengineering or complexity is there not due to

Yeah, tried similar things. The issue is that having them learn that on it's own is currently an inaccurate process with a lot of overlooking. I recently tried doing some of the techniques that fared well on smaller repositories on a g

Pretty much, but it already starts at the prompting and context level. Senior engineers either already know exactly where the changes need to be made and can suggest what to do. They probably know the pitfalls, have established patterns, a

I speak at least 3 languages at a native level. Google's autotranslate 80% of the time selects a language I'm not just unfamiliar with, but can't even read due to the writing system difference (i.e. sudden arabic appears). C

Oh you're about to unlock a whole new level of token burning. There is an /agents command that lets you define agents for specific tasks or areas. Each of them has their own context and their own rules. Then claude can delegate th

Thanks! Just this is a 10x better explanation than most things I've seen online.

Great video! Even more, shows a few things - how good it is with such a niche language but also exposes some direct flaws. First off, Rust represents quite a small part of the training dataset (last I checked it was under 1% of code dataset

I still do not understand why use jj. It is a layer on top of git that adds its own terminology and processes. The DX doesn't come close to git in understandability, what is `jj bookmark move main --to @-` and how is it more understand

Yes, but in that case, I want the fix of the original mistake to be done in a new commit. Why? Example #1: - I am working on implementing API calls in the client, made 3 commits and opened a PR - In the meantime, the BE team decides they sc

Yes, but this doesn't do absolutely anything to prevent this. I've helped elderly family members and non-techie ones who barely know how to open a facebook account - none of them had "malware apps" installed. Their probl

This is not related to malware or scams, and using that is nothing but a PR smoke screen. While Android is vulnerable, especially to user stupidity, people mostly get scammed by fake credit card charges or by giving access to their notifica

It being a crime depends on who you are. I'm in an EU country where banks go through all the necessary checks. As someone who worked for a bank, I got hit by the AML check on a larger transaction, delaying it for over 3 months in the e

You parse it. Invalid calls you revalidate with a model of your choice. Parsing isn't a hard to solve thing, it's easy and you can parse whatever you want. I've been parsing responses from LLM's since days of Ada and DaV

But now you're limited by the model, provider and the model's adherence to the output. While using structured outputs is great, it can cause large performance impacts and you lose control over it - i.e. using a smaller model via g

Technically yes, and I've caught myself in a bit of a paradoxal conundrum :) Think there is a curve of "reason" to apply when someone is advocating something like this, especially about technology and abstractions. While in m

Always the same with every tech hype-train. People start developing protocol, standards and overengineering abstractions to get free PR and status. Since AI hype started we have seen so many concepts built upon the basic LLM, from Langchain

I read the overview, and it is blindly obvious that the issue is cache invalidation and someone overengineered it. This is not a spectacular problem. This is a "building a web service 101 problem", which was solved about the time

Holy shit the amount of overcomplications to serve simple HTML and CSS. Someone really has to justify their job security to be pulling shit like this, or they really gotta be bored. If anyone can _legitimately_ justify this, please do, I&#x

Ironically, that lesswrong article is more wrong than right. First, chess is perfect for such modeling. The game is basically a tree of legal moves. The "world model" representation is already encoded in the dataset itself and at

Completely agree - the research output should be integrated into a customer facing product, instead they are trying to integrate customers into into research output.
