OpenAI's Wall Street Disconnect

Talk about out of touch with reality. Investors slammed the tech sector on Tuesday, spurred in part by a Wall Street Journal report that OpenAI had missed some internal revenue projections. Among the biggest to take a hit were two cloud firms that depend heavily on OpenAI for business: Oracle and CoreWeave, whose stocks fell 4% and 5.8%, respectively. It seems investors were surprised by the idea that all might... Read more

The technique, called Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards with Self-Distillation (RLSD), combines the rel Read more

Как использовать GitHub Actions и настроить интеграцию с PyPI для Python-проектов

Когда я создавал свой первый Python-пакет, dataclass-sqlalchemy-mixins(github или pypi), я столкнулся с интересной задачей:как настроить CI/CD в GitHub так, чтобы при отправке новых изменений ничего не ломалось, а код автоматически публиковался в PyPI. Обычно, чтобы проверить любой коммит, попадающий в master-ветку через pull request, необходимо запускать тесты. Кроме того, полезно использовать линтеры для проверки стиля кода, особенно если над проектом работают несколько разработчиков. В этой статье я расс Read more

If someone over 70 has started spending long stretches of time doing something that looks useless from the outside (staring at birds, rereading the same book, sitting in the garden doing nothing) they’re not declining, they’re doing the most important work of their entire life

There’s a small park near our apartment in Saigon where, most afternoons, an old Vietnamese man sits on the same concrete bench under the same tree. He doesn’t read. He doesn’t use a phone. He doesn’t talk to anyone. He just sits, watching the light move across the pavement, sometimes closing his eyes, sometimes watching ... Read more Read more
