Then you run the risk of overfitting to whatever seed you picked. I think fixing a seed is probably a good idea most of the time but it’s worth considering
I've got a gitea instance and a systemd timer polling for issues assigned to my bot. The systemd timer clones the repo etc and spawns the agent in a restricted environment where it has a private localhost (enforced by…
The original developers (before Apple bought the company) used Visual Studio on Windows
> If you wrote a function that takes a PRNG and generates a random object, you already have a function capable of enumerating all objects. Something often forgotten here: if your PRNG only takes e.g. a 32-bit seed, you…
I actually started a collection of annoying bugs I’ve seen in the wild. I give the llm the buggy implementation and ask it to write a test that catches it. So far not even a frontier model (Claude Sonnet) can do it,…
I want to make a Birds Aren't Real[0] style t-shirt that says "Floats Aren't Real" [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birds_Aren%27t_Real
The natural recursive implementation is exponential, and the memoized version is O(n)
