You are right, it's the deepswe chart vs cost I was referring to which is slightly further down

I couldn't get past the first chart which basically showed that intelligence and cost are both better for gpt luna, I'm not sure what the argument is here for Gemini flash 3.7 given that com…

Presumably the frontier labs themselves can do their own distillation far better than the chinese labs can. Why can't they just beat them at their own game and release / host low cost intell…

> Every business wants you to be addicted to their products It simply isn't true a) that businesses are all as unscrupulous as digital media platforms and b) that most products even have poten…

The one that does my head in is everything being a 'gate' where really it means a condition. RLHF seems to incentivise analogy-like terms to the more plain alternatives.

The point is that - unrestricted - digital media maximises for time and attention. Given that incentive, addictive behaviours are not only inevitable, but an ideal outcome financially. It's easy …

It's really good, love it! My vote would be no countdown, but you could have a hidden timer and use that for ranking at the end, so that there's still and incentive to think fast. If you can…

I love that idea, thanks :) I will add this to the list.

100% I'm not sure when all this mission nonsense came in, but it's daft when you see it parroted around something as beige as SaaS. It's fine to want to make something good and make so…

I remember the controversies well :) but I guess even their extra gating is starting to creak by the sounds of it.

The surprising thing to me is that it's taken as long as it has for CRAN to have this problem. As others have said, this is happening everywhere.

If it's real this is a terrible thing to have happen. However the moral of this story is nothing to do with AI and everything to do with boring stuff like access management.

"and honestly, ..." "heres the thing ..." [em dash every paragraph] Smells like default Claude voice. I like the ideas, but if someone can't be bothered to proof read their ow…

Couldn't agree more. Worth pointing out that sites owned by Meta and Twitter in particular have become much more hostile to signed out users - often impossible to view a business' listing w…

You are right that Taiwan doesn't. But it has consequences, Taipower is forced to undercharge against market prices, but is backstopped by the government. At the end of the day, it's a globa…

I'm no longer keeping it updated with new content, but I curated and made searchable about 40k feeds over the years https://blognerd.app/ …

Not sure I agree with you. For lower ability models, yes. Claude Opus 4.6 is incredibly capable, so it's odd to me it has this residual 'misspeak' behaviour.

sounds cool. I guess you built this? Is there any way to learn more about how it works before signing in? The homepage doesn't give much away :)

While I agree with the general point Vitamin D is toxic (and ultimately fatal) at high doses, which is why the 'suggested' dosages of between 400IU and 1000IU are so conservative. You may …

I'm running duckdb over 500gb of parquet on a largish desktop (50gb ram) and it's been smooth & fast. I guess OOM issues will matter at some point, but I think it's going to be in t…

This is very cool! I built something a little similar https://blognerd.app . I'm really interested in the RSS remixing idea, though I didn't quite crack it. I'll be intereste…
