We really gotta start teaching causal inference in schools
I do love data journalism but there does need to be more vigilance on data cherry picking.
Here is a graph from the Times purporting to show poor performance post-nationalisation. Alongside is a photo of the performance board from Cambridge station.
Worst performer by far? CrossCountry. Private.

hot take: yes please ban all datacenter construction. That will force labs to make inference cheap sooner rather than later

I always love the inference that I invented it. “howd you think of that?”

Apropos of nothing, this is a regular PSA that the excellent book “Computer Age Statistical Inference” is available free online.

Kids: study causal inference. I wouldn't accept this from an undergraduate in my intro stats class.

“He’s probably fine with them.” Another racial inference from a lifelong racist. It generationally ingrained and he just cannot help himself. I fucking hate him.

good news: switching to GPT-6 for my inference is faster, cheaper, and quieter
bad news: oh my god it writes the ugliest code what have they done to these models

i love how horribly inefficient / uneconomical running at-home inference is at full compute capacity lmao it's ridiculous. i still want to do it.

The biggest regulation I want is the one that seems to get the least press: No training on fossil fuels. Probably no inference on fossil fuels.

NVIDIA finds that frequently summarizing and resetting LLM agents' context, even after every action, can preserve performance on long-horizon tasks while reducing estimated inference costs by up to 8.8x

The kimi-k3 branch of DwarfStar can now do K3.1 PRO inference directly from safetensors weights with SSD streaming. Slow, but good enough for QA tasks.
