Wait, I thought the provenance of the proof is still disputed? There's a mathematician in NY saying he used OpenAI to develop his Navier-Stokes ideas. And OpenAI's proof is suspiciously similar.

At this point, how can we tell whether AI is improving or it's just reappropriating its users work? It's probably a bit of both. But still, thick milky.

There's a few alternatives, but SASRec is a good baseline for next-item recommendation. I'd look at BERT4Rec too. HSTU is definitely a strong step forward, but stays in the domain of ID models. HSTU also seems to rely heavily on some extra item information that SASRec does not (timestamps).

Other models include Google's TIGER model which uses a VAE to encode more information about items. Similar to how modern text-to-voice operates.

I've worked in recommender systems for a while, and it's great to see them publicized.

SASRec was released in 2018 just after transformer paper, and uses the same attention mechanism but different losses than LLMs. Any plans to upgrade to other item/user prediction models?

We're missing out on the serendipity of search and possibly duplication of work. Answer's are handed out without work, which leads to bland results.

Treated properly, I think AI proofreading wouldn't necessarily lead to this. Your initial work is like the 'hypothesis'. Then AI does the cleanup and a high-level lit review. Just don't let it change your direction like the writer did in the comic.

I used to think that technology, or lack of it, would solve these problems. More connection. More communication. But it really won't.

It's just as much about the outreach as it is about the writing. Email authors you like. Give them thoughtful feedback. Be generous. It's hard work. It's a relationship and community building.

Funnily enough, I saw this too. Yesterday I upgraded from ghostty 1.0.0 to 1.2.0 and was hit with startup delay. 1.0.0 didn't have it. My delay was around 5s on a fresh reboot. However, after I opened a few ghostty windows, the delay went away. I'll be keeping my eye on it.

Thanks, this is right down my alley. When I make the switch from X to Wayland, I'll check this out.

Reminds me of Wolfram's 'A New Kind of Science'. Specifically his principle of computation equivalence: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_New_Kind_of_Science#Principl...

My progression has been st -> kitty -> ghostty. I wanted to love st, but found too many unpolished corners. Kitty was great, but it felt like the exact opposite of st. Very large and opinionated. ghostty, at least originally, was new and something between st and kitty. With claude code I wonder where the landscape of personalized software will land. st and others may be on to something in this era.
