Who's going to pick the fruits and harvest the vegetables? Those are not jobs Americans want, among many more. Trump is using the system at levels like no one has seen before , perhaps he could set an example "Trump Organization

you may reconsider OP's primary motivation based on another of their HN submissions https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49674396 my hunch is that an Ai has been validating their biases

you're not alone in this, I suspect it will die down as it becomes apparent (with time) things are not playing out that way

this was the period of arxiv history that led to the new vouching system that first person phrase stuck out to me, especially given it had plural versions on either side, the author never edited for clarity or consistency

The title doesn't reflect the content of the paper or project, which uses things like RAG and an orchestrator, so more than "pure RL" (the project before it was rehashed into Laya since Jev was released)

Data Structures and Algorithms is foundational, other core courses in a CS program are Operating System, Programming Languages, and Computer Architecture. A good way to find the books is to look at the course syllabus, each has a well known

I suspect you and GP are talking at different layers. I think you are using robust on specific tasks with measurable confusion matrix. I think GP is talking about robust in more complex and diverse workflows, with the ability to self correc

the difference is likely not in per domain performance, but rather that you can get similar performance across domains without needing to craft a dataset and retrain, i.e. it has a broad knowledge base and works out of the box (unclear if t

there has always been an amount, I notice it more with Trump related comments since 2.0, but inconsistent EA is a newer in frequency topic on HN, so unclear thus far, but the other submissions remain unflagged

posting to arxiv is not publishing, it's a preprint site, and what's there I would not call professional work of academic quality This was a year ago, when we were all complaining about the arxiv slop, which led to the new vouchin

the paper does not describe a model architecture, it describes a system built on embeddings, rag, and orchestrators they don't seem very similar to me

Are you grouping academic research funded by grants under the contract category? To me, there is a meaningful difference and I'd add a third category, but I can also see the contract angle

1. it's a dupe post, there are other commenters who've shared links to prior submissions with more comments (and not flagged) 2. some of that group hangs around HN, there is an amount of (likely uncoordinated) voting/flagging
