Community discussion on KV cache quantization strategies (BF16, Q8, Q4, TurboQuant) for local inference.

Tokens be damned, this makes every interaction so much better: Here is what I asked the agent to dump about its operating procedures that we’ve built up in memory. And the results I think speak for themselves. Claude.md changes: —— \## Discord Protocol When a message arrives via Discord, always do all three in order: 1.

At TechCrunch's sold-out StrictlyVC event in San Francisco on Thursday night, we covered a lot of ground in a short time, beginning with the question everyone in the industry is asking right now: in a world where rival Cursor is reportedly in talks to be acquired by SpaceX for $60 billion, is Replit also bound to sell?

Meta bought humanoid startup Assured Robot Intelligence to beef up its AI models for robots, the company said.

In the first week of the landmark trial between Elon Musk and OpenAI, Musk took the stand in a crisp black suit and tie and argued that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and president Greg Brockman had deceived him into bankrolling the company. Along the way, he warned that AI could destroy us all and sat…

I've been frustrated that AI conversations turn into loose brainstorming. You ask for advice, get a nice response, but it's not rigorous. So I built a skill that forces structured debate using the Six Hats method: - White Hat: What do we know? - Red Hat: What's your gut feeling? - Yellow Hat: Why could this work? - Black Hat: What could go wrong? - Green Hat: Any alternatives? - Blue Hat: Final recommendation It runs 3 rounds sequentially, then synthesizes. Example: I debated "Should I switch from frontend to AI?" — got a phased optionality recommendation, not a generic "follow your passion...

Sam Altman shifts stance on UBI, arguing fixed cash payments inadequate for AI-driven labor disruption; proposes alternative support models.

I posted a toy here a while back called Roundtable where two AIs argued in a chat window. didn't expect much, but the feedback was wild. People weren't using it for fun, they were running actual heavy questions through it. Turns out everyone was dealing with the same AI gaslighting we were and were hunting across tabs to figure out which model is hallucinating is a broken workflow or by chasing the best ai answer.  But talking to people trying to solve this in our app made one thing painfully obvious. chat is genuinely a terrible UI for big question**.** threads get lost in the weeds, and s...

Figure AI's Figure 03 humanoid robot features wireless-charging feet, advancing physical autonomy infrastructure for embodied AI systems.

Simon Willison built an iNaturalist observation aggregator using Claude Code for web and Git scraping to group sightings by time/location.

Reddit discussion critiquing ICML's 27% acceptance rate and review quality issues, raising concerns about paper triage cascading to NeurIPS.

Claude Security just went into public beta for Enterprise customers, and I think this is worth paying attention to not for the hype, but for one specific design decision. Most security scanners use rule-based pattern matching. Fast, cheap, and produces a flood of false positives that your team eventually learns to ignore. The signal-to-noise ratio kills adoption. Claude Security takes a different approach: it reasons through the code like a security researcher would. It reads Git history, traces data flows across multiple files, and understands business logic. The goal is catching vulnerab...

Reddit user comments on Claude's behavior with custom system prompts, suggesting unrealistic roleplay capabilities.

User reports $6,000 accidental Claude API spend from unattended loop command, raising questions about rate limits and billing transparency.

For the past several years I've been quietly assembling and processing what I believe is one of the larger privately held pretraining corpora around... a complete Usenet archive spanning 1980 to 2013. Here's what it ended up being: * **103.1 billion tokens** (cl100k\_base) * **408 million posts** across 9 newsgroup hierarchies * **18,347 newsgroups** covered * **33 years** of continuous coverage The processing pipeline included full deduplication, binary removal (alt.binaries.\* excluded at the hierarchy level before record-level cleaning), quoted text handling, email address redaction via...

HyCOP learns interpretable PDE solution operators by composing modular components conditioned on state features, enabling hybrid surrogate evaluation without autoregressive rollout.
