@ID_AA_Carmack I should have expected it would be an Andy Weir book 😂

@mycoliza @emphaticist recently ServeTheHome reviewed a mikrotik switch with SFP56 ports. afaik the only NICs speaking SFP56 are some mellanox ones and one new announced-but-unavailable AMD NIC. it's a physical manifestation of the phrase "technically the spec also allows..."

@jerhadf I genuinely like doing simple things fast with Haiku (or, in other tools, the fast GLM). It'd be cool if people could get that experience with some mitigation/safety net for when a fast model doesn't appear to be the right tool

[rf @rf]

@jerhadf Y'all have lots of options now (Haiku no-think...Opus high) w/speed and usage limit tradeoffs, and leave users to guess. 'Auto - balanced', or letting the model suggest calling in a stronger one if stuck or given a hard task (e.g. Haiku w/a multi-file refactor) could help

Huh: this is a 48B model that itself won't do much, but efficient attention that works well'd be pretty nice for "let's have a chat re: these 10k lines of code" and such

Context Arena Update: Added kimi-linear-48b-a3b-instruct [11-08] and kimi-k2 (Thinking) [11-06] to the MRCR leaderboards.

The Linear 48b results are fascinating! It actually outperforms the new Gemini 3.0 Pro Thinking on 4-needle and 8-needle tasks at higher context lengths (512k+). I've added it to 2needle, 4needle, and 8needle.

kimi-k2 (Thinking) lands lower on the leaderboards (Rank #22 for 2-needle AUC @ 128k), with a hard context ceiling around 262k. I did not run it for 2needle and 4needle.

All results at: https://t.co/gLEWzxoXWG

The performance curve for the Linear model is distinct: while it underperforms Gemini 3 significantly at shorter contexts (<=256k) on the difficult 8-needle test, its degradation slope is much flatter. Gemini starts higher and drops fast; Kimi starts lower but holds steady, overtaking Gemini at the higher end.

However, note that kimi-linear-48b has noticeable performance drops past 128k on the easier 2 & 4 needle tests. Additionally, due to lower token efficiency compared to Gemini/GPT, only ~60% of the 1M token tests successfully ran (hitting limits/OOM). So some caution with the results at the 1M level.

kimi-linear-48b results:

2-Needle Performance (@ 128k / @ 1M):
- AUC: 96.5% (vs Gem 3: 99.5%) / 81.7% (vs Gem 3: 85.5%)
- Pointwise: 96.0% (vs Gem 3: 99.0%) / 77.0% (vs Gem 3: 72.2%)

4-Needle Performance (@ 128k / @ 1M):
- AUC: 85.5% (vs 85.8%) / 62.7% (#1, beating Gem 3: 57.3%)
- Pointwise: 83.7% (vs 80.8%) / 51.5% (#1, beating Gem 3: 34.3%)

8-Needle Performance (@ 128k / @ 1M):
- AUC: 54.9% (vs 73.0%) / 43.8% (#1, beating Gem 3: 39.0%)
- Pointwise: 49.0% (vs 54.2%) / 35.3% (#1, beating Gem 3: 24.5%)

A very different architectural approach yielding impressive stability at scale. Because of its current price point, it is very competitive for long context (MRCR).

Enjoy.

[neural oscillator of uncertain significance @mycoliza]

cool idea. we could execute a restricted set of bytecode instructions for operating on objects stored by the server. i propose the following instruction set:

- GET
- HEAD
- PUT
- POST
- DELETE
- CONNECT
- OPTIONS
- PATCH
