I would have thought the Amazon tax is “free shipping” that has altered the pricing of every item, and now B&M retail is picking up the same pricing despite a much lower shipping overhead Ads too, I guess

I’m getting good at reading LLM-speak (which is probably sad) It means two “layers” of information access/validation. Sounds like it first made a little map of model <-> benchmark, then went and filled in the score boxes. Definit

I think an argument can be made that some software has gotten more secure. I don’t think it can be denied that the models do show an ability to find security vulnerabilities that may have otherwise been missed

It feels icky to me that they feed a log of what you’ve watched, when, and on what device, over to an LLM just to get back some recommendations. Even though It’s probably exactly the type of thing I would do on a locally hosted LLM

So you’d be attaching a new volume to the running worker VM for each PVC? This seems a little odd to me. Could you attach a single large volume, and do path-based provisioning on that?

My comment was trying to point on the inanity of calling out "so many em-dashes" on a post where it doesn't seem that obvious it was LLM generated. I added some of my own inanity with my remark about them being double-dashes,

There really wasn’t that many and this did not have the voice of written-by-an-LLM to me And they’re not em-dashes -- they’re double hyphens.

I think you’re thinking about it in slightly the wrong way. We’re not throwing more data at frontier models in hopes they get more/better capabilities somehow. We’re either: setting up a verifiable task, and doing RLVR to get the model

As written it sounds like you're saying that it was incompetent of the labs to disable the sandbox internet access? They tried to disable open internet access but the models zero-day'd their Artifactory package registry and got in

Yours is the only mention of GPT-OSS in the whole thread. I count about 2-3 comments saying the model is meh and many more saying it’s a big step up. I am among those with real life experience with the model that used the previous as well a

I think we will eventually reach a point where this is the case, but at the moment it seems like you can throw virtually any non-trivial use-case at a model today and end up being more satisfied with the results that a model tomorrow gives.

It feels like the rate of stupid we have achieved in the last (checks watch) ~18 months has surely eclipsed anything that may have occurred during the roman empire. By sheer volume alone?

It's a terrible moat. You etch the silicon then nobody wants to run it in 6 months because models have advanced that much further.

We’re already seeing incredible knowledge compression out of the models the GP mentioned like Qwen 35B-A3B, which feels well within the realm of “runs on a phone” in the next handful of years. And by then we’ll probably have been further su

MCP is the protocol by which the harness can connect with additional tools. The harness does the work of discovering the tools, the model is then fed a description of what tools it has available, with zero awareness of whether those tools a

The problem is that there is no signal to the folks involved whether you have bothered to understand what you’re posting or are simply offloading that work to others. Same issue as dumping a system log or a stack trace without any of your
