Bloated patches: LM generated solutions of SWE-bench tasks are consistently longer than human-written gold solutions (and it's not just comments) 🧵

When you're trying to do some AVX programming using ISPC but you're on a Zen4 machine.. Even doing this serialized is faster lmfao
The output of `perf report` zoomed into a function. The profile shows that a single use of `vpcompressd` (or actually the instruction after it) has consumed over 50% of the program's total runtime.

Another common mistake I see with LLMs is sticking to prose inputs and outputs for the model Most users are actually pretty allergic to both typing out and reading large blocks of text. It's often better to structure inputs and outputs to be something other than sentences/paragraphs

Joke about environmentally friendly cryptography. 

"Sustainable Cryptography Initiative

Reduce: use less different keys
Reuse: key pairs are still usable after the expiration date
Recycle: publish your private key so less key mining is needed"

I just started doing #adventofcode in #Haskell, but I've already done that for like the last three years, so maybe it's time for something else? Does anyone here have any fun suggestions?

Hi, so I've spent the past almost-decade studying research uses of public social media data, like e.g. ML researchers using content from Twitter, Reddit, and Mastodon. Anyway, buckle up this is about to be a VERY long thread with lots of thoughts and links to papers. 🧵
