HuggingFace just closed a major gap in harness engineering! (the ultimate guide to multi-harness RL) the same open-weight model can perform well inside one harness, then lose accuracy or produce inval

I agree that chatgpt/codex has the current best agent interface for deep work. - It unifies all my work (coding/knowledge work) in one interface. Toggling between chatgpt/codex doesn't have explicitly

if you’re building an ai app, you might want to host inference to improve your margins, and if you do that you should support a few models, and if you’re doing that you might as well build a router, a

It’s like a lonely child is in charge of this nation. This so pathetic. And as we keep electing these people, we collectively are pathetic. We don’t have to be this way. So let’s not be this way. “I a
