I do not fully understand the complexity behind achieving full-duplex but I hope this sets the bar for Anthropic to follow. Turn-based simplex is yesterday.

Not sure why you're downvoted. Chamath Palihapitiya was a tome of SPAC heyday.

What is your origin story? How did you end up doing this and how can I do the same?

Nice. Claude likes it, especially when the AI detects PII and knows by policy to halt the commit to cloud but not local.

> A related trick worth knowing — one git push can fan out to two destinations:

git remote set-url --add --push origin ~/bares/<repo>.git # add a 2nd push URL # now `git push origin` writes to GitHub AND the local bare repo

The main problem with these SQL calculations is that they are deterministic shortcuts for a probabilistic problem. Fraud is not usually a “true because rule X matched.” It is more like "what is the probability this is fraudulent"? SQL patterns are useful, but they are blunt instruments. I really don't think banks use deterministic heuristics but more data science stuff.

I think it's also worth mentioning Piper, Critique, and the infamous monorepo.

Another stupid meme-latching name. Don't normalize these *maxxing nonsense words and just use plain language. Let's see, maybe just say they were optimizing for token count?

This kimi website, it looks like a stylesheet from the 90's. They could learn a thing or two about typeface design. Steve Jobs would be incensed at this.

It was just yesterday that this top post [] was decrying the "peril of laziness lost", that LLMs inherently lack the virtue of laziness.

So which one are they?

> As they did so, they also learned how to improve the prompts they gave AlphaEvolve. One key takeaway: The model seemed to benefit from encouragement. It worked better “when we were prompting with some positive reinforcement to the LLM,” Gómez-Serrano said. “Like saying ‘You can do this’ — this seemed to help. This is interesting. We don’t know why.”

Four top logical people in the world are acknowledging this. It is mind-blowing and we don't know why.
