In addition to aggregating, it can also be useful in cases where one link is much slower or higher latency. For example, if you're sitting in your driveway trying to get directions in maps while your phone is still on…
How are you combining local models with hosted models? I have tried OpenClaw with some of the smaller local models (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, Qwen3.8-Flash-Next) and found that while it can sometimes complete tasks, it would…
Seriously. It feels like Anthropic is realizing this too with their new attempt at safeguards. Trying to train the model to "only do good things" was not working, and so they opted to just bolt a topic classifier on the…
> This will be used to align the data. For some reason, our computers are much better at dealing with data that is aligned at 8 bytes. This means that the start of each new allocation has to be at a multiple of 8 bytes.…
fortunately AI (scrapers) have solved this problem so now you'll have no end of traffic
No amount of prompt engineering will give you the true probabilities for the model producing a certain response; this is something you can only get by inspecting the internal state at inference time.
In general, you have to intend to commit the crime you're being charged with (referred to as "mens rea"). Though, it's important to note that "intend" is extremely ill-defined in the US and it varies with the crime (eg…
relatedly, it is also worth considering that your VA allocation behavior can have significant impacts on your page table costs. Some programs like to, for example, map allocations at random VAs for security reasons. If…
> Many people's moral systems (and our legal system) are typically deontological I think there's also a component of people (HN's audience in particular) trying to approach the law as if it were a program. In tech…
I suspect the latter is much easier and cheaper than the former? You can port a lot of software with cheap (or even local) models if you're tenacious whereas finding all the bugs is both very very expensive (if it's…
There's a bit of convention and practicality The only thing you really need is that your "fatal error" instruction and "syscall" instruction can be reasonably discriminated without needing to set registers at the call…
I do really wonder what it would be like to learn to program for the first time with OCaml. I remember learning to use OCaml in a properly functional way after so long writing code in C and it was really miserably…
I don't think you're giving ARM credit for the ever growing pile of features which are always optional or optional only on some versions of the ISA. For example, can you use FEAT_CSSC to improve code size and…
It's complicated. > Courts have generally found that compelling individuals to provide their numeric or alphanumeric passcode is potentially testimonial under the Fifth Amendment, as it forces the defendant to reveal…
One must imagine punching the wall feels good (in the moment)
I don't think it's a matter of "staying ahead"; the proprietary frontier models are better, but the trouble for them is that open weight models are good enough in increasingly many cases. This raises the floor on the…
Yes, this is why a warrant is required to access carrier location data for a phone but one is not required to have a police officer physically following you around town despite the outcome (the police get a trace of…
I worry that all this talk about "China can't be allowed to beat the West on LLMs" is a setup to saddle the public with a bailout in the name of national security.
When has enforceability ever been a concern of the government? This is the same government that had anti-sodomy laws on the books until the Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional in 2003. Making it illegal even without…
DCA is not unreasonable advice given that most people's greatest enemy is themselves. DCA helps avoid the very emotionally upsetting feeling of you throwing money into a fund and it dropping 5% the next day. This…
there was also a small trend a while ago of using it to bracket tongue and cheek/sarcastic phrases, for example: > setting your computer on fire for (sparkle) self care (sparkle)
Always a delight seeing Chisel in the wild :)
The trick is antitrust style bundling. The massive pile of documents and processes tied to GSuite is a moat which makes it hard to switch to something like o365. Since a company might effectively be locked into GSuite…
Psychology in general tends to make the same distinction. There are lots of behaviors which may be considered abnormal but do not have a meaningful impact on the quality of life of the person or those around them, and…
I think what you're really getting at is that it's only useful if the benchmarks are predictive of your workloads. If it predicts well (for example, your tasks are equally easy), then the fact that a larger model can…
