oh man, the saga continues...

for those who need a primer on this: https://endash.us/toolkit/items/mini-shai-halud (yes an ai-assisted build obvi, but not just an ai blog)

really cool looking. i'll let you know if i end up cloning and trying it out, but the animations that show it make it look really smooth. nice to have things like this to potentially integrate into other oss projects

i'm a big fan of web-native books, and I think they can live neatly alongside epubs and print copies. these two are some of my favorite

OpenAI's release explicitly says No. But then also caveats that with "we cannot rule out that de-identified data derived from their usage of our products" impacted things. What's most striking to me, and what may or may not be true, is the "we cannot rule out" bit.

"We (the researchers and the agents) did not see any of their work through any means until they released it publicly — in particular, no specific user data was accessed in order to solve this problem. While unlikely, we cannot rule out that de-identified data derived from their usage of our products helped improve our models . However, our proofs differ significantly and even the precise results proved are different in the Euler case (forced vs unforced)." https://openai.com/index/navier-stokes-solution/

NOTE: there are a couple duped threads around this. i replied on a different one first before seeing this one

agree with this. i don't see the point of the terrarium if the fly never moves or really changes at all, other than seeing to twitch faster when sugar is on.

Such a fun story included here. It'd be great if this was also in a native web-app ebook too (i know it's harder to charge $ effectively, but most people end up wanting the physical or epub (for their e-reader) anyway if they like it.

"The [benchmark] we deserve, but not the one we need right now."

Answers a simple question: Is a hot dog a sandwich? Pings the major models for a one-word answer, and generates reports accordingly.

Silly, stupid, whatever. But it's open-source and able to be cloned/forked to answer your "real" questions with ease.

Oh, and you can submit your own questions to be added to the list.

I was really hoping this would be about 12-factor authentication

The arms race continues.. we do need to keep trying to crack down on the bad actors, but it is only going to get worse

For those who aren't familiar with teamPCP's big attack recently, we made a Scroll to highlight how it was so effective: https://endash.us/toolkit/items/mini-shai-halud

CI/CD, rollback strategy, blue/green deployments, testing regions, automated testing suites... you need all of this and more.. because code reviews just aren't going to be happening soon. luckily, these LLMs can help in building that infrastructure needed to reliably ship changes quickly

There are a lot of systems at play here, and those things don't change overnight. I think certainly we'll look back in 10 years and clearly see this was the start of a revolution, but we seem to have a distorted view of what a revolution is. The industrial revolution didn't happen overnight, and many folks during the time didn't have any concept of what was actually happening.

Classic hindsight bias.. And it's funny that Sam is saying this.. just a few months ago i saw his interview where he claimed to be very good at seeing the future and predicting what will happen
