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.

I'm drawn by the style and aesthetics of the charts in combination with the fonts used in them.

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.
