Hello World.

[akshith @akshithio]

@_rajanagarwal @OpenAI @extraordinary congrats!

[akshith @akshithio]

@RhysSullivan @ExaAILabs exa keeps tryna give credits away everywhere

@willdepue typo on the first line or am I missing something? do you mean compute spend?

[akshith @akshithio]

you're missing out a little, if you haven't read this piece by @ch402 on visual information theory.

It builds upto KL divergence and cross-entropy from the simplest of first principles and is absolutely worth your time

[akshith @akshithio]

@lukalotl nice looking harness, looking forward to it as a macos app!

recently i'm seeing a bunch of bots across twitter and in my followers list

not the crypto or spammy kind but the ones that will say that they're an "agent" of some sort for some company in their bio

not too sure how i feel about these, don't know what they're even for tbh

[akshith @akshithio]

@dakshgup @greptile i did, at least the descriptions of the commands don't make it seem like they do what I said unless I'm missing something?

[akshith @akshithio]

I think code review tools like @greptile should really have more native options to do code review on more than just the current commit's diff or for a PR.

They should let you do a general audit of the entire repository as well, at any time.

[akshith @akshithio]

subagents largely wouldn't need to exist if you had a large enough context window & fast enough generation, it seems like an engineering solution to an ml problem.

[akshith @akshithio]

@thenanyu it seems so easy to forget that twitter did indeed make bootstrap

[akshith @akshithio]

It's usually hard to bet against tech, and even more so when hundreds of billions is being poured into something.

This particular feat was of course a consequence of having reasoning in img-gen models (like images 2.0 on chat).

[akshith @akshithio]

On an unrelated note, one of the mainstream arguments for why LLMs / img-gen models were merely stochastic parrots was that they couldn't generate anything other than 10:10 on a clock face.

To anyone familiar with these tools, it was obvious that it was only a matter of time

[Paul Graham @paulg]

A friend came over to look at some old watches. But he showed up at the worst possible time: 2:11.

[akshith @akshithio]

the band does feel shorter in width though (prolly cuz of removing the cornell logo? did they have one?) which is confusing me a little bit, cuz the buttons seem a little different placed than where I would've expected them to be last week

[akshith @akshithio]

am i the only person that like the new black band on arxiv?

[akshith @akshithio]

why does every company have a custom font? really makes adding things to my font collection so much harder

[akshith @akshithio]

@benjitaylor probably the first time i've felt that @x had a design language that wasn't just twitter without the bird. incredible stuff!

[akshith @akshithio]

TIL that my erdos distance is 5

[akshith @akshithio]

@github checked the date to see if it was the first of april

[akshith @akshithio]

@aidenybai coolest thing i've seen today

[akshith @akshithio]

@KrishivThakuria congrats man!
