Python's 3.15 JIT compiler uses a new form of interpreter profiling that records execution through the interpreter for JIT compilation with low overhead. This approach allows for efficient profiling of the interpreter, with a maximum slowdown of 4.5x for a toy benchmark, compared to 900x-1000x for other tracing systems like PyPy.

Who's afraid of Chinese models?

The author argues that the reaction to Chinese open weight models is overblown, as they are not necessarily cheaper to serve on a marginal cost basis, but rather are benefiting from a lack of compute and a price umbrella. The author suggests that the US should pass a law to make distillation of models fair use and to loosen restrictions on using frontier labs' models for cybersecurity, to ...
