• How Transformers Work

  Distill was a new take at publishing research/ideas in deep learning in a visual way: https://distill.pub/ I love their articles and while it was hard to sustain, the quality of the ones in their are pretty good. They provide some tips and templates on how to develop such visual storytelling articles. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Reverse Engineer Hidden Algorithms

  Explainable AI is far from early stages. Read into anthropic ai’s work in mechanistic interpretability like toy models of superposition along with the rest of the transformer-circuits papers. Read chris olah’s distill papers. Read neel nanda’s recent work on reverse engineering how language models grok modular addition. Read kevin meng’s work on locating and editing facts inside of gpt. Read openai’s paper on... Source: 11 months ago

• Sharing a side project: Linear Algebra for Programmers

• Ask HN: What's your favorite illustration in Computer Science?

  Anything from Setosa [0] is really good. It contains interactive, animated illustrations of several Machine Learning ideas. I _loved_ reading papers from Distill Pub [1] as they contained interactive diagrams. My most favorite one so far is the thread on Differentiable Self-organizing Systems [2]. I liked the lizard example very much as it is interactive, and lizards grow lost organs back. I think this is funny.... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• An empty, private AWS S3 bucket can cost you 1000s of $

  This does not save you because AWS Account IDs are not private, e.g. If you are using S3 pre-signed URLs anywhere, those URLs include your account ID as part of the X-AMZ-Credential URL field: https://medium.com/@TalBeerySec/a-short-note-on-aws-key-id-f88cc4317489. - Source: Hacker News / about 12 hours ago

• The Server Chose Violence

  Very enjoyable read, and this single supervisor is similar to how I set up an application at a previous startup, where we unwrapped everything. This reminds me of one of my favorite posts https://medium.com/@mattklein123/crash-early-and-crash-often-for-more-reliable-software-597738dd21c5. - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• The Vision Pro is a big flop

  So, when you follow the link under "Apple initially had a sales target of 3 million Vision Pro units in its first year", you'll see that this number came from Marc Gurman and is based on nothing. He then quotes Ming-Chi Kuo's similarly unsubstantiated "800,000 units" claim. Since the 72.5% accurate¹ Kuo can't possibly have guessed wrong, the explanation must be that Apple slashed production. This doesn't... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Jeff Geerling: Corporate Open Source Is Dead

  The declining share price and profits is exactly what made it possible for IBM to buy Hashicorp - $6 billion is a snip compared to the $14 billion IPO valuation. Fintan Ryan has a nice write-up here: https://medium.com/@fintanr/on-ibm-acquiring-hashicorp-c9c73a40d20c. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago
