  • Ask Claude to add 36 and 59 and the model will go through a series of odd steps, including first adding a selection of approximate values (add 40ish and 60ish, add 57ish and 36ish). Towards the end of its process, it comes up with the value 92ish. Meanwhile, another sequence of steps focuses on the last digits, 6 and 9, and determines that the answer must end in a 5. Putting that together with 92ish gives the correct answer of 95.

    when Claude was given the prompt “A rhyming couplet: He saw a carrot and had to grab it,” the model responded, “His hunger was like a starving rabbit.” But using their microscope, they saw that Claude had already hit upon the word “rabbit” when it was processing “grab it.”

    … [turned] off the placeholder component for “rabbitness.” Claude responded with “His hunger was a powerful habit.” And when the team replaced “rabbitness” with “greenness,” Claude responded with “freeing it from the garden’s green.”




  • Addition to 10. And if a thread is not about america or politics, someone in the comments will still twist the subject to rant about it.

    And 11. Lemmy has a disproportionate cynical middle aged nerd population. Like the people on this post thinking ‘old reddit-like ui’ was a compliment. Seeing the ‘I only use vim’ guy once is amusing. Scrolling down and seeing a dozen more sends a distinct ‘this place is not for you’ vibe.















  • “Can’t live without” is an overstatement, but here are mine:

    • Kvaesitso, search focused android launcher. I used to really like nova launcher’s local search and navigated my phone mostly using that. But once gensture navigation became a thing I had to stop using nova and replicate the experience in Samsung launcher with various local search apps that were lacking in comparison. Tried to go back a couple times once gestures with 3rd party launchers got better but found my old setup still too ugly and sluggish to go back to. Recently I randomly came across Kvaesitso on fdroid and it was everything I ever wanted out of a launcher.

    • Amberol music player. Not the ideal music player I’d like but at least it’s not Elisa.

    • Kid3, audio file tag editor. It has much better workflow/automation than mp3tag that I used in windows, and it seems if you spend some effort on it you could add more automation to make it even better.
