By simply using a sampling-and-voting method, our research shows that the performance of large language models (LLMs) improves with more instantiated agents. This method stands apart from complex techniques typically used to enhance LLMs, with the level of improvement tied to the difficulty of the task at hand. Through extensive experiments on various LLM benchmarks, […]
faces.js is a JavaScript library that allows you to generate and display cartoon faces using scalable vector graphics (SVG). The library’s options for facial features are somewhat limited and crude, but you can easily add new options by forking the project on GitHub. To use faces.js, you can install it from npm or yarn and […]
WinBtrfs v1.9 is a Windows driver for the Btrfs Linux filesystem, reimagined without Linux kernel code. Compatible with Windows XP onwards and ReactOS, it requires WinMD for MD software RAID. Notable features include ACLs, RAID support, compression, and LXSS compatibility. Full fs-verity support and Zoned support are the future goals. Installation is straightforward, and troubleshooting […]
In this paper, the authors address the challenge of finding a Hamiltonian formulation for a viscous fluid system, like the Navier-Stokes equations, which are non-Hamiltonian. By considering a higher-order problem and providing additional conditions, they were able to transform a non-Hamiltonian problem into one with Hamiltonian structure. This surprising method, demonstrated through a simple example, […]
In the future, text editing tools will revolutionize the way we manipulate written content, much like Photoshop did for images. These new tools will allow users to easily alter, summarize, and lengthen text in a variety of styles. While text manipulation may seem more complex than image editing due to language rules, AI models are […]
Congenital Aphantasics are individuals who cannot generate mental images, as confirmed by low scores on the VVIQ2 questionnaire. While Derek experiences detailed imagined audio and visual experiences, Loren does not have imagined audio experiences, inner monolog, or audio/visual dreams. Loren’s unique visual experiences, including motion aftereffects and tilt illusions, suggest minimal impact from expectations or […]
The author provides a straightforward explanation of PID controllers, which are used to control processes by adjusting inputs based on sensor measurements and a set target value. Examples include controlling temperature in a 3D printer, regulating speed in a vehicle, and managing blood pressure in medicine. The author then delves into the components of PID […]
ohmyksh is a framework that enhances OpenBSD’s ksh by providing completions for common tasks like man pages, SSH known hosts, and Git commands. It also offers extensions for importing bulk functionality such as Git-prompt and OpenBSD-specific tooling, as well as prompts for minimal yet useful prompts. Unique features include a tool for quickly changing directories, […]
In the UK, a Zenfone buyer successfully sued ASUS over a broken promise to provide bootloader unlocking support, receiving a full refund of £770. ASUS phones previously had easy-to-use tools for unlocking, but as of last year, accessing the bootloader is no longer possible on recent models. This has caused controversy among buyers, leading to […]
