In this paper, the authors explore the effectiveness of Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) compared to full fine-tuning for adapting large language models to various tasks. They analyze weight matrices and spectral properties to show that LoRA introduces “intruder dimensions” not found in full fine-tuning, impacting model generalization and robustness across tasks. Interestingly, higher-rank LoRA models align […]

The content explores the concept of drawing as a programming language, taking inspiration from Lambda Calculus. Various non-verbal programming languages like Befunge and Piet are mentioned. The new language aims to combine drawing and programming by using Lambda Calculus as its basis, simplifying it to function application and definition. The author discusses challenges faced, including […]
Weed scientists are constantly developing innovative ways to kill pesticide-resistant weeds, including using steam, lasers, AI, and pulverizing machines. Fennimore specializes in vegetable farming where herbicide options are limited, leading him to create a steam injection prototype that is 90% effective in killing weeds. Other non-chemical weed control methods, such as Carbon Robotics’ LaserWeeder, are […]
One thousand years of peace shattered by The Great War. An old man speaks of ancient aliens, dark arts, and a Cursed Orb draining the galaxy of goodness. He leaves a map to the Orb, sparking a dangerous quest for peace. Crash-landing on an asteroid, you must decide between certain death or mysterious depths within. […]
The author details the extensive process of stabilizing the swimming dither and reducing flickering dots in their game, “Obra Dinn.” By experimenting with different mapping techniques, including texel space, motion warping, cube mapping, and sphere mapping, they were able to achieve a more stable dithering effect for both static and moving images. The final result […]
The presentation at POC2024 discusses macOS sandbox vulnerabilities and how attackers can escape the sandbox to gain broader access.
