Re:Recursive Language Models (RLMs) on Wednesday October 15, 2025 @05:46PM (#45598711)
> Lastly, in our experiments we only consider a recursive depth of 1 — i.e. the root LM can only call LMs, not other RLMs. It is a relatively easy change to allow the REPL environment to call RLMs instead of LMs, but we felt that for most modern “long context” benchmarks, a recursive depth of 1 was sufficient to handle most problems. However, for future work and investigation into RLMs, enabling larger recursive depth will naturally lead to stronger and more interesting systems.

It feels a little disingenuous to call it a Recursive Language Model when the recursive depth of the study was only 1.

Plug your headphones only halfway into the jack.

Is there a way to check individual friend profiles? Also, are you planning on adding more for each friend than just activities?

Just try it out for a project or two if you're curious.

That was a great read. Thanks for a new blog to put on my RSS feed

Oh wow, that's actually really powerful stuff! Thanks for the explanation.

What exactly is a consensus algorithm and how do you prove linearizability?

If you want to actually learn Korean, check out this site. [1] An American knowing no Korean moved to Korea and meticulously documented everything he learned, and this website was the result. It's an incredibly thorough study into Korean.

Re:Small introduction to tags in Go on Tuesday July 21, 2015 @12:58PM (#9923733)
This should be handy for frameworks to do their own logic, but I would get very annoyed if I had to read code that was cluttered with tags.
So they put a paper ballot with an RFID chip inside into a machine which then puts your vote into the chip, then you drop the ballot into a box? How is this any different from a regular paper ballot?
Could this be used to make networks of ultra-portable trackers?
