Beam is a large language model that combines pretraining and reinforcement learning to achieve strong performance in coding, agentic, and reasoning tasks. It was trained on 23.8 trillion high-quality tokens from the web and proprietary licensed datasets using a novel scaling recipe for reinforcement learning.
The route is computed using 1m lidar elevation and street graph data, balancing distance and climbing. The slider offers various options, excluding stairways on bikes while allowing them on foot.
Fervo has reached a key commercial milestone by synchronizing its 100-megawatt power plant with the grid, ahead of schedule. The company aims to complete future blocks in as little as 18 months, appealing to data center operators seeking generating capacity.
Researchers have developed a zeroth-order optimization algorithm called Dust that is competitive with backpropagation at pretraining transformer language models. The algorithm perturbs activations independently at every token, allowing for parallel evaluation and efficient computation.
The author has returned to using Node.js after a long period of using Deno, finding it more modern and stable. They've switched to PNPM for package management and are exploring other built-in Node APIs to improve performance.
The author uses a music-based accountability system to motivate themselves and their partner, finding it more effective than traditional bets due to its focus on joy and positive impact. This approach waters the carrot rather than magnifying the stick, providing a sense of purpose beyond just avoiding negative consequences.
Researchers used AI to design a new magnet with properties between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic materials, which could improve computer memory. The material has zero net spin moment but sorts electrons by energy level, allowing for faster switching and higher storage performance.
Web Search API is now available in beta, allowing AI agents to search the internet and ground responses in live information. It supports three providers: Ceramic.ai, Exa, and Linkup, with no additional markup on top of provider prices.
This week in #curl we get to experience not one, but two compiler bugs. All research by @vsz. Two arm64-specific compiler optimization bugs, in gcc-15/16 and Rust respectively: https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/23237
User successfully set up iChat's video conferencing on OS X Leopard over the internet by creating a custom SNATMAP server. The solution involves setting up a web server to serve the snatmap.txt file and updating the /etc/hosts file on both Macs.
Asos users in the UK received pop-up messages from hackers claiming to have compromised Snowflake, a data storage company used by many firms. The hackers are demanding engagement or they will leak sensitive information, using ASOS's own app as their ransom note.
This book provides a thorough introduction to competitive programming, focusing on algorithms and mathematical thinking. It is suitable for students interested in IOI or ICPC, as well as anyone looking to learn about competitive programming.
The article compares 12 Zigbee temperature and humidity sensors from various brands, including Aqara, Sonoff, Tuya, Thirdreality, Zemismart, and Moes. The sensors were tested for accuracy and reporting interval using a calibrated reference sensor in a controlled environment.
The example.com domain has undergone several changes over the years, with updates aimed at reducing bandwidth demands and improving its utility. The latest redesign introduces multi-language support using JavaScript, showing content in a new language every 5 seconds.
