Synthetic Programming Elicitation and Repair for Text-to-Code in Very Low-Resource Programming Languages
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) for code applications have demonstrated remarkable zero-shot fluency and instruction following on challenging code related tasks ranging from test case generation to self-repair. Unsurprisingly, however, models struggle to compose syntactically valid programs in programming languages unrepresented in pre-training, referred to as very low-resource Programming Languages (VLPLs). VLPLs appear in crucial settings including domain-specific languages fo…

Autism spectrum, feelings and (against all odds) a Witcher quote
"""
[…] Because you're a witcher and you can't feel any emotion. You don't want to fulfill my request, because you think that you care about her, you think that… Geralt, you are with her only because she wants that, and you'll be with her for as long as she wants to. What you're feeling is a projection of her emotion, her interest in you. To all demons of the Pit, Geralt, you're not a child, you know who you are. You're a mutant. Don't misunderstand me, I'm not saying this to offend or disdain you. I'm just stating a fact. You're a mutant, and one of the basic features of your mutation is your full immunity to emotion. You've been made like this so that you could do your job. Do you understand? You can't feel anything. What you're taking as emotion is actually cell memory, somatic memory, if you know what that means.
"""
(Andrzej Sapkowski, Miecz przeznaczenia, Okruch lodu, Istredd's words, my own translation)
However the context is different, it made me think of my own problems with emotions.
Am I capable of love? Or perhaps I can merely project somebody else's feelings, return them at the best. Or perhaps just intellectually be aware of what I am supposed to feel.
Was perhaps that, what I used to take for "love", actually gratitude that somebody was nice to me, or that she showed interest?
Or perhaps was it that she fitted into an unrealistic model that I've engraved into my personality as a child?
Or just an attachment, a feeling of safety, stemming from a large data set. A conviction that unpleasant surprise is no longer that likely.
Or just desperation, a need that's been forced into me since I was a child and that now I'm trying to attain based on what the media, books and personal stories tell me about it.
Or even something resembling a Stockholm syndrome. "At least she's paying attention to me. I know the worst she could do to me."

So, France plans to force the Internet domain name system servers (such as Google's 8.8.8.8) to give wrong answers.
(Imagine what that will do to DNSSEC, or how it will boost DoH and DoT access to DNS.)
Sounds a lot like the Fifth Lateran Council's attempt to limit the publication of books (using excommunication as a tool.)
Compare the following two items (in the second one, search for the heading "On printing books")

Great 🧵 about Apple’s Private Cloud Compute system to handle tasks beyond what can be done on device. I have mixed feelings about so-called “artificial intelligence”. I don’t like how data gets scraped without permission, and is displacing jobs. But, when it comes to using large language models as a tool, like better organizing my inbox, I’m okay with that. Obviously, when the rubber meets the road, I’m likely to change my mind.

SoundCTM: Uniting Score-based and Consistency Models for Text-to-Sound Generation
Sound content is an indispensable element for multimedia works such as video games, music, and films. Recent high-quality diffusion-based sound generation models can serve as valuable tools for the creators. However, despite producing high-quality sounds, these models often suffer from slow inference speeds. This drawback burdens creators, who typically refine their sounds through trial and error to align them with their artistic intentions. To address this issue, we introduce Sound Consistency…

#NowPlaying Dreamt I was driving in the Excelsior district, and as I was going downhill on a narrow street, this one house on the left stood out from the rest because it looked like an old church with a flimsy wooden gate that’s always open and a long footpath to the entrance surrounded by shrubbery.

Synthesis of Mg$_2$IrH$_5$: A potential pathway to high-$T_c$ hydride superconductivity at ambient pressure
Following long-standing predictions associated with hydrogen, high-temperature superconductivity has recently been observed in several hydride-based materials. Nevertheless, these high-$T_c$ phases only exist at extremely high pressures, and achieving high transition temperatures at ambient pressure remains a major challenge. Recent predictions of the complex hydride Mg$_{2}$IrH$_{6}$ may help overcome this challenge with calculations of high-$T_c$ superconductivity (65 K$~<~T_c~<~$ 170 K) in a…
