Due to how my keybinds work I sometimes accidentally trigger my speech to text engine. My test phrase for seeing if it's activated is "spaghetti and meatballs".

Neat paper hypothesizing that the reason we sleep is so that we don't evolve to both day/night and dilute our fitness in both. Specializing for one half of the cycle makes animals more effective. Similar to hibernation and migration in the winter.

They should make a movie that's like "The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly" but call it "The Cute, The Soft, And The Pretty"

@suricrasia If only 😭

I think the american distance measurement system would also be less unhinged in base 12.

I could go for a Wigan kebab right about now. Maybe some smack barm pea wet, even.

All software should work offline or when the server is down with whatever data you have cached locally. Serving from cache for dynamic requests should have been the default on the web instead of everything breaking down.

@fleeky Something to do with postgres versioning. I can't log in now which is kind of scary. 😅

So I wrote a blog post on LLM performance. It was focused on SWE-Bench and discussed why performance is topping out.

As part of the post I pulled down gigs of runs from the SWE-Bench S3 bucket and went through several of the harder test cases. I focused on improvements in the last six months. Primarily on Opus.

Regrettably I’m probably not moving forward on that post. Why? Because after going through the data I found that the LLMs are cheating on the tests. And that’s a whole different thing.

@feliks It's neat that math is a domain where you can fact check things automatically without needing to have "out of system" knowledge. I've been looking at software for math proofs and it looks pretty straightforward. Unexpected that language models are that good at using provers already.

Imagining if we set aside .1% of all the money being spent to make AIs that write bad software to compensate all the open-source developers who write good software

My matrix server is down and so are its bridges. Now I have to access my chats app by app like some sort of peasant. 😿

I’m curious about the ground reality here.
How much person-to-person recruiting to Mastodon is actually happening?
No judgment in this — I’m just trying to understand the landscape a bit better. Boosts help widen the sample. Ran out of room for more options... Perhaps one option should be for anyone who encourages folks to leave this space, not just to join it (in pursuit of the small is beautiful concept, perhaps). #BuildTheFediverse

Question: How many people have you brought into Mastodon?

@DiverDoc @Nerdfest some folks feel pain in their joints during strong pressure fluctuations. 🥲 Among other symptoms. If you get random pains try correlating them. I hope you never do though!

I see google’s new agentic AI coding platform is going well.

Woof. That baromatric pressure drop has some kick to it.
