maybe they did already via the "formerly known as" comment in the paper?: https://www.spongium.org

Does anyone have hints on what kinds of prompts are most used for a distillation like this—SWE-Bench sorts of things?

Is reconstructing the compressed knowledge in the model like reconstructing a lossy JPG or MP3 a reasonable analogy?

Somewhat related, but TIL the macOS Screenshot.app utility (and the system wide keyboard shortcuts) in Sonoma got HDR capability to help re-convey just a bit more fidelity. Even in PNG, it keeps the display profile, just not HDR.

Open Utilities->Screenshot.app Options->Capture/Capture Format->HEIC. Note, it changes the system screenshot default away from PNG too.

Microsoft poorly manages token use of most expensive models in a pilot. Then they use that failure to advertise/position their own Github Copilot agents to procurement teams, over the now widely validated Claude Code-based agents.

At least Codex is trying to win validation on merit.

Article does not mention the other reason: in the interview with Dwarkesh, Amodei remarked about how other organizations are copying or training off Opus for their models.

By delaying allowing others to train off Mythos, they hold their SWE-Bench Pro head start longer so among other things, the USG can't but notice Anthropic's lead when they're deliberating on whether to further substantiate the "supply chain risk".

Anyone else read this as "An idiot's guide to Pb optimization for proteins," as in avoiding contaminated dietary protein isolates?

Ffmpeg.WASM is really good and might manage all these steps before even uploading.

Since it kind of had an LLM flavor in the original anyway, I had an LLM redraft this for my particular non-Japanese intercultural situation, and it wasn't valueless. I had to tell it to "Make sure to keep the same technology focus of the original."

"We're not perfectly good at preventing some of these other [model] companies from using our models internally." — well maybe this says something about how Opus 4.5 and Opus 4.6 have the same SWE bench score.

Huh, so if a China-based lab takes ARC-AGI-2 on the new year, then they can say they had just-shy of a solution anyway.

It was probably from the other day when roon realized that normal people have it slower than staff.

Then from that they realized they could just run API calls more like staff, fast, not at capacity.

Then they leave the billion other people's calls at remaining capacity.

> Ohqay: Do you get faster speeds on your work account?

> roon: yea it’s super fast bc im sure we’re not running internal deployment at full load

Does this manufacturer's practice pattern of repackaging data center components (e.g. Mellanox) imply any up and coming product creation opportunities?

On two separate instances 4 years apart in Liberia, the VSAT unit and Asus WiFi router were overheating at peak usage or peak heat times. This must be happening more than is generally realized.

Easiest solution: permanently point a good case-fan-sized USB fan on to the unit, using its own USB port.

this Nov video talks thru via Cursor renegotiation, how in important ways a token != a token (not even within types like reasoning, output, or a model) because attention can lead to expensive logic loops. https://www.oreilly.com/videos/live-with-tim/0642572259488/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AXMO2dW0LI&list=PL055Epbe6d...

Glad it was a helpful remix! Since that post, the original tool author added UKLG's full version to the tool: https://ttc.tasuki.org/display:Code:gff,sm,jc,rh,uklg/sectio...
