If you used co-pilot Microsoft automatically appends your environment information to the system prompt.

You can see it in denug chat view but you can see it says stuff like the user is on powershell 7 on Windows 11 etc

My experience is with copilot and it uses various models, but the sweet spot is between 60 and 120 lines. With psuedo xml tags between sections

Might be different across platforms due to how stuff is setup though.

typpilolon OpenAI acquires Sky.app

I've yet to see a useful case for these AI browsers that is something other than a dead simple task.

But when I browse the net, I'm not thinking about asking AI about the info on my screen. I can just read it?

And by no means am I anti AI, I use it a bit for coding

typpilolon Karpathy on DeepSeek-OCR paper: Are pixels better inputs to LLMs than text?

Tokenizers are the reason LLMs are even possible to run at a decent speed on our best hardware.

Removing the tokenizer would 1/4 the context and 4x the compute and memory, assuming an avg token length of 4.

Also, you would probably need to 4x the parameters to have to learn understanding between individual characters as well as words and sentences etc.

There's been a few studies on small models, even then those only show a tiny percentage gain over tokenized models.

So essentially you would need 4x compute, 1/4 the context, and 4x the parameters to squeeze 2-4% more performance out of it.

And that fails when you use more then 1/4 context. So realistically you need to support the same context, so you r compute goes up another 4x to 16x.

That's why

typpilolon Karpathy on DeepSeek-OCR paper: Are pixels better inputs to LLMs than text?

Thanks.

Also, saying it needs 20x compute is exactly that. It's something we could do eventually but not now

typpilolon Google flags Immich sites as dangerous

I feel like the GitHub one might be okay since a lot of malware binaries are hosted there still.

typpilolon Karpathy on DeepSeek-OCR paper: Are pixels better inputs to LLMs than text?

It will require like 20x the compute

typpilolon Evaluating the Infinity Cache in AMD Strix Halo

How's latency vs a traditional?

typpilolon Evaluating the Infinity Cache in AMD Strix Halo

Any idea what makes models hard to run on it?

Just general compatibility between Nvidia and AMD for stuff that was built for Nvidia originally?

Or do you mean something else?

typpilolon Mathematicians have found a hidden 'reset button' for undoing rotation

Or just download the extension that bypasses pay walls lol

typpilolon Solution to CIA’s Kryptos sculpture is found in Smithsonian vault

He had tonsil cancer but it's gone now.

typpilolon Today is when the Amazon brain drain sent AWS down the spout

I think you misunderstood. He's not saying they have 10m illegal workers.

He's saying even if they had 10m illegal workers they would burn though them all too

typpilolon Claude Code on the web

Every since 4.5, I can't get Claude to do anything that takes a while

4.0 would chug a long for 40 mins. 4.5 refuses and straight up says the scope is too big sometimes.

My theory is anthropic is super compute constrained and even though 4.5 is smarter, the usage limits and it's obsession with rushing to finish was put in mainly to save their servers compute.

typpilolon Claude Code on the web

In my experience. Claude wants to try and finish everything as quickly as possible where codex is happy to take 5x the length.

The best answer is each has its uses. Using codex to do bulk edits is dumb because it takes forever, etc etc

typpilolon Could the XZ backdoor been detected with better Git/Deb packaging practices?

Also why couldn't they start using it now?

typpilolon Replacement.ai

There's also a whole bunch of woman embracing it as you can see on /r/myboyfriendisai

typpilolon Solution to CIA’s Kryptos sculpture is found in Smithsonian vault

My dad has medigap that covered all that

He pays like 140 a month extra for it though. But he had all his cancer treatments covered

typpilolon Tinnitus Neuromodulator

Brains crazy

I had a slight crack in my windshield right at eye level view. And after a minute of driving I don't notice it at all anymore

typpilolon Ruby core team takes ownership of RubyGems and Bundler

How would it protect anyone?

typpilolon Ruby core team takes ownership of RubyGems and Bundler

Everyone seems to gloss over it lol

typpilolon Claude Code vs. Codex: I built a sentiment dashboard from Reddit comments

Best according to?

typpilolon Ruby core team takes ownership of RubyGems and Bundler

that's the one thing I've heard them not address yet is the changing of the passwords.

typpilolon Andrej Karpathy – It will take a decade to work through the issues with agents

92% is half actually - RuneScape Players

typpilolon Gemini 3.0 spotted in the wild through A/B testing

Ya their agent mode with it is terrible. Its set to auto stop after a specific point and it's not very long lol

Weird considering I've been hearing how they have way more compute than anyone

typpilolon Meow.camera

I like the one cat rescue out of ohio that streams their cat area inside 24/7.

They get a ton of donations of food and toys so it seems to work out well.

typpilolon Garbage collection for Rust: The finalizer frontier

That's a lot more extreme than 10ms and yea I get your point better now

typpilolon Claude Skills

I kind of do this by making LLM run my linter which has typed lint rules.

The way I can get any decent code out of them for typescript is by having no joke, 60 eslint plugins. It forces them to write actual decent code, although it takes them forever

typpilolon Garbage collection for Rust: The finalizer frontier

10ms?

Did they have like 100k tests?

typpilolon Acid Drop

I have a great collection of ansi colorscripts if they want to use it to test the displays. I saw they had some pretty basic ones

typpilolon Zed is now available on Windows

Is that really necessary for an ide? Seems like a ton of added complexity for little to no trade off or even a downside considering...
