For the first time, it introduced native sparse attention into the full training process, achieving up to 11× inference speedup while maintaining model performance.
LLaSA is a simple framework for speech synthesis that employs a single-layer vector quantizer (VQ) codec and a single Transformer architecture to fully align with standard LLMs such as LLaMA.
I don’t quite understand why OpenAI would pay so much when there’s a solid open-source alternative like Cline. I tried both, and feel that Cline with DeepSeek v3 is comparable to Cursor and more cost-effective.
If it achieves its goal of both “safe” and “super intelligence”, it may have commercial value. e.g. enterprises may want to use it instead of, e.g. OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Think of recent AirCanada’s chatbot law suit.
One of the most popular HSM is Thales Luna Network HSM, which can perform 20,000 ECC operations per second [1]. Even with the size of Azure AD, Microsoft may not need a lot of HSMs for signing purpose. HSMs are not particularly easy to manage though, maybe that is one of reasons they are not used as much as they should be.
Oracle’s ownership of MySQL AB seems to have negative impact on its development. My concern, which is also raised in the article, is whether similar things will happen to Postgresql.
The social media walled garden - quite a few people I know rarely use a browser or don't even know how to use it. They get their news mostly from their social media apps, and they have a hard time spotting fake news. It is much easier to censor content in a social network than the open internet. People live in their bubble and are not exposed to different opinions and ideas.
> Trying to appreciate mathematics without understanding its inner workings is like reading a description of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony instead of hearing it.
I personally feel J.S. Bach would be a better metaphor here.
Preventive measures may be cheaper than enforcement. UBI could reduce the crime rate and therefore save money on law and order. I think it targets the root cause rather than fixing the symptoms through more policing.
Deno's sandbox security is somewhat similar to Mandatory Access Control (MAC) implemented by SELinux and AppArmor. But it looks like not as fine-grained as MAC. In the example:
deno run --allow-net myWebserver.ts
With SELinux, one can specify the port range and network interface that the application is allowed to access. It also provides audit log that can be examined by the admin. Maybe there is no need to reinvent the wheel but just use some form of MAC if you really care about security.
The other common misconception is that the price of bitcoin is determined by the hashrate. It is actually the other way around, a higher price drives up the hashrate, because a higher price means more demand for bitcoin.
Some founders of altcoins apparently don't understand this and try to buy hashpower to artificially increase the hashrate, hoping to increase the price of their coins. If there is no demand for their coins, an ASIC farm is no different from a Rasberry Pi.
