Are those instances of undefined behavior relevant to what's being discussed here? The vast majority undefined behavior people argue/warn/complain about, including the original article, is behavior that is explicitly defined to be undefined (I say that with the caveat that I almost never use C++ and I've never read any C++ standard closely, so my perception is biased towards C; things might be different for C++).

What I mean to say is that the "problem" of undefined behavior does seem to be intentionally introduced by the authors of the standard, not an oversight.
You might be ok with it, but the regulators want Apple to treat third parties the same way they treat their own apps, and that's a good thing. Either everyone would generate two prompts, or no one, but excluding yourself is just favoritism.
The placebo effect is absolutely a thing. Players still get in trouble for corking bats even though it's been proven to have no effect (or a negative one) on hitting.
Question. Are you referring to converting a hardcopy of a recipe you already have?

Personally, I like taking a snapshot(s) of a recipe from cookbooks I own. That way I can bring my phone into the kitchen and leave the recipe book out of the splash zone.

I'm pretty sure people these days frequent their phone to obtain/cook with a recipe they got from the internet. Not everyone does, but I'd wager it's pretty common.
There are already open-weight models that match OpenAI's best models (at the time of their release), so the idea that OpenAI would lose something by making its frontier models open-weight doesn't hold up

If true, that cuts both ways though right?

It also means we lose nothing if OpenAI releases a closed weight model.

Wow! Thanks for taking the time to think through it. Yes, you are exactly right! I couldn’t have described Augento better than this myself. We actually want to make writing a reward function completely optional and build some RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback) loop soon. One of our long-term goals is to bring the cost of RL down so the barrier of entry to fine-tuning big models is not as high as it currently is.

Well, that attitude is probably why the issue has been open for 2 years.
>> Particularly because it’s in a “tier 2” framework (gtkmm) in terms of amount of code available to train an LLM on.

I asked GPT4 to write an empty GTK4 app in C++. I asked for a menu bar with File, Edit, View at the top and two GL drawing areas separated by a spacer. It produced what looked like usable code with a couple lines I suspected were out of place. I did not try to compile it so don't know if it was a hallucination, but it did seem to know about gtkmm 4.
This is why habeas corpus is so important. An attorney goes before the court, and demands the client be produced, and a justification be given for their detention.

My source is the code itself, but you could also use the wiki's documentation about the on-disk data format.

It's fundamentally just a big array of one entry per block space. It was never too big for an average computer to handle - otherwise Minecraft wouldn't have been able to exist yet (maybe that's why it didn't exist until the time that it did) but they've gotten a lot less efficient since then, in the name of flexibility.

Before Minecraft existed I played Cube 2 on "coop edit" mode. Its world structure is an optimization you might be interested in: it represents the whole game world (of fixed size) as an octree. So the map starts as a node with 8 child slots (one for each corner of a cube); each is either completely solid, completely empty, or another node, recursively down to some maximum depth. Therefore Large empty areas and large solid areas are stored in about the same amount of space as small empty areas and small solid areas.
This ship sailed in 2000. We've been hacking custom select boxes since then, so we may as well pave the cowpath. And besides, as a user, I want stylable select elements. Seeing an ugly old select box in the middle of a site where everything is styled consistently is jarring.

And it doesn't get the job done. You can't put stuff like SVGs or complex DOM elements in them, which is a valid use case. Most of the time, when people create custom select boxes, they ignore accessibility. This will fix that issue.
Fun, nice job
I disagree with that assessment. It is currently led by someone widely popular in Syria. Ultimately, the people are free to elect whoever they choose. The point is it is unequivocal most of them rejected Iranian and Russian influence and a barbarous Assad regime. Of course rebuilding will take time, and there might be some extreme factions (religious or leftovers from the Assad regime). But freedom prevailed. Your response is that of a coward that would rather live as a slave under a foreign occupation, instead of rebelling at the cost of their own lives.

Does CoreWeave's disappointing IPO signal an AI bubble?
I agree with you that the market exists and, as a result, solutions to this problem also exist in abundance. The most difficult part about a building a product like the one presented here is making something super generic that works for a wide swath of use cases. If you simplify the stack to more bespoke/custom approach, the build burden decreases exponentially.

For the folks who are already technical in this vertical, especially ones that leverage a low cardinality architecture (one or two models, small subset of tasks, etc), this type of thing is quite easy to build yourself first as a working prototype and then only slightly more difficult to productionize & automate.

I have some in-house infra that does similar work: monitors inputs and outputs from models, puts them in a UI for a human to score/rank, preps a DPO dataset for training, kicks off training run. The total amount of calendar time I spent from prototype to production was roughly two person weeks. Changing the human intervention mechanism to an automated reward function would be an hour or two worth of work. If I had to make this work for all types of users, tasks, and models — no shot I'd have the time personally to pull that off with any reasonable velocity.

With that said, having a nice UI with great observability into the whole process is a pretty big value-add to get out of the box as well.

That's how democracy works in Europe: the courts are part of the checks and ballances, politicians have to be transparent about campaign financing so that we hopefully don't get Uncle Adolph running the show again, needing Allied intervention again and bombs dropped on innocent people and beer factories.

Le Pen's case is similar to Sarkozy takng a briefcase of cash from Gaddafi to finance hus campaign (and then waging war agsinst him) but it's more nuanced, because instead she used EU funds when Putin's funding dried up due to the need to finance his war. So basically she should probably be in the same place that Sarkozy is now or wherever the court will decide based on evidence.
>I'm a hater of complexity and build systems in general.

But you already have a complex cmake build system in place. Adding a standard Docker image with all the deps for devs to compile on would do nothing but make contributing easier, and would not affect your CI/CD/testing pipeline at all. I followed the readme and spent half an hour trying to get this to build for MacOS before giving up.

If building your project for all supported environments requires anything more than a single one-line command, you're doing it wrong.
We know how they work. It's just that it works better than expected. Which of course doesn't mean we don't know, it just means there are second-order effects that are non-obvious. Intelligence is not implied.

And that is not what is happening. You can hold quite a lot of viewpoints, including opposing who is in charge. You just can't use EU funds to campaign for EU to be effectively abolished.

Imagine someone running for presidency in the US campaigning for it to disintegrate.

> Sorry, but you are representing the “a dark path”, where power is concentrated in the hands of a few.

Quite the opposite. EU fragments power so much that fucking Orban gets to block any initiative, even though Hungary is far from being one of the main countries in the block.

Also, very cute of you to cry authoritarianism when we are talking about Le Pen of all people, someone who holds very authoritarian views herself. Quite telling, whenever such a politician faces consequences of their bullshit, a lot of people come out of the woods to make excuses for them. Fuck that noise.

Only when you know exactly where to go. If you need to get to customers in 3 cities where order doesn't matter (ie the traveling salemen problem, though you are allowed to hit any city more than once) current solutions are not great. If you want to go on vacation but don't care much about where (almost every place with an airport would be an acceptable vacation, though some are better than others)
Do you believe that non-citizens should be allowed to run for any office? Or that citizens living outside a state/district should be allowed to represent that state/distict?

Golf should rate gear differently for different levels of play. Most golfers need these improvements as it makes recreational golf more enjoyable. But it makes the game too easy for professionals. Gear rated for their tournaments would be better I think. But there’s a rub.

Players like to endorse gear because people want to play what the best players play. They think it will make them better. So it’s hard to endorse gear you aren’t playing with.

Theres also data that suggests longer hitting guys will be more dominant with a rollback. I don’t know but I guess the nerds figured out how to optimize golf and it’s all about distance. The days of precession and artistry may be gone. I’m not sure how to defend against bomb and gouge and not sure if we should.

You are right. If you want/can pay out of your own pocket, RunPod (https://www.runpod.io) deserves a shoutout here. We rented GPUs from them (they have them and they are cheaper and more available than Lambda Labs) until we convinced AWS to give us capacity blocks.
But in general the prices for GPUs as well as their scarcity is really crass and unlike mining you can't really use gaming or franken cards as a fallback. I can count the GPUs we can do this on (even for relatively small models) on one hand.

>Food is eaten in our stomachs by bacteria. If the bacteria in our stomachs can’t (or won’t) eat something, that means it’s not digestible.

Both of these are false. Bacteria are not needed for the proper function of the human stomach (or the small intestine). The human body produces digestive enzymes, HCl and bile (and maybe bicarbonate) which combined will digest most foods without any help from bacteria.

Bacteria are needed in the large intestine to convert fiber into short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), but a person can live for many years without any of these SCFAs' being produced in the large intestine, although the person probably would be less healthy.
Thanks for these.

We built a one-click hosted MCP server solution
Our team at Bramble (YC F24) has been messing around with tool-using agents lately. We ran into some friction trying to use Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP):

- Most MCP servers are stdio-based, but we wanted something HTTP-friendly
- We needed auth and the ability to run servers remotely
- We couldn’t find a hosted option to just try the thing without spinning up infra. We have a bunch of different automations that could be valuable for our ops, but there's no way to know how doable each one is without experimenting with available APIs integrated into our LLM calls.

This all seemed a bit too much to chew through for every integration we wanted to try, so we threw together https://mcpverse.dev — a one-click way to spin up hosted MCP servers with auth baked in. No server setup, free to use, and made for folks who want to experiment with agents without spending half the day wiring stuff up.

At the moment we’re just using the underlying infra to test and run some internal automations, but we’ve opened up options for folks to request additional MCP server support for more integration options.

Currently on the roadmap:
- We’re working on Google Workspace, which is a huge want but is trickier than most because it essentially requires OAuth support
- CLI tool or API to help spin up new servers at scale
- Integrate proxy for existing MCP clients that only support stdio
- Maybe some client tooling (clients are still pretty tricky to write, and we have 2-3 more use cases we want to build client logic for)

Hopefully helpful to someone else trying to avoid yak-shaving. Would love feedback (you can email us directly at team@mcpverse.dev)!
For those wondering how to answer "what do you want to see from an open model" I put this in: an open weights end to end multimodal model, a model large enough to act as a functional teacher along with a range of nicely distilled smaller sizes, code repo to make training / finetuning easy.

As I write this, I'd also like to request a set of tool calling LLMs in various sizes. Feels to me like a small fast local tool calling assessor with a large context to support a lot of MCP functions would be very useful locally.

Kagi allowing you to assign what is good and bad makes your argument void.

You shouldn't rely on the company alone. While it may be what Kagi is aiming for but they can only do so much.

°The real problem was that they didn't read. Sadly, I could pretty much predict the grade-distribution on the first day of class with one question: "have you ever read anything for fun?"

The students who regularly read books and magazines (hell, even comic books) were going to get As, once they figured out how to put an argument together. The kids who'd maybe read Harry Potter a few years back (this was ten years ago) would end up with Bs, or Cs if they slacked off. The STEM folks who read technical manuals were solid Cs, and Bs if they worked at it. The at least half who'd literally never read anything outside the classroom were going to struggle to pass. I taught my ass off, and spent unlimited office hours with anyone who'd come to them, but there's only so much that class-work can do.

This article makes it sound like it's only got worse since.
