Fast & Faithful Function Vectors
arXiv:2606.05079v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Function vectors (FVs) are task representations elicited during in-context learning that can be used to steer Large Language Models (LLMs). However, design choices in their formulation remain underexplored. In this work, we study the impact of varying FV definitions for instructions along two degrees of freedom: attention head selection and steering.
From topography to connectome: Towards an integrated understanding of the resting brain
As the field expands from early research into the human connectome, there has been a fast expansion in the number of analytical approaches to study resting state functional MRI (rsfMRI) data. With increasing focus on individual differences, topographical brain maps of spatial organization have emerged in addition to traditional functional connectomes. Here, we developed a deep-learning model to embed maps of network topography and faithfully translate to individualized connectomes.
Ranking college football's top 100 newcomers for t...
If the upcoming 2026 college football season is anything like its predecessor, transfer quarterbacks and top freshmen will be crucial for many College Football Playoff runs. And by now, with less than 100 days until the start of the season, we can assess rosters and what players did during spring practice with their new teams. While we have analyzed the top newcomer for each Power 4 team, these rankings are regardless of teams.
Superintelligence: The Idea That Eats Smart People (2016)
This is the text version of a talk I gave on October 29, 2016, at Web Camp Zagreb [video] (45 mins) SuperintelligenceThe Idea That Eats Smart People | | | In 1945, as American physicists were preparing to test the atomic bomb, it occurred to someone to ask if such a test could set the atmosphere on fire. This was a legitimate concern.

[compiler] Port React Compiler to Rust#36173 This is an experimental, work-in-progress port of React Compiler to Rust. Key points: - Work-in-progress - we are sharing early, prior to testing internally at Meta, to get feedback from partners in parallel with continued development.
The people who actually want AI to replace humanity
“I want AI to be a tool that allows human flourishing!” exclaimed Brad Carson, a former member of Congress. “There is an option out there where AI is just a tool for us.” The people who actually want AI to replace humanity We need to create a new humanism before the “AI successionists” win.
Restartable Sequences
May 31st, 2026 @ justine's web page The best kept secret at the frontier of system programming right now is the Linux 4.18+ (c. 2018) concept of restartable sequences or rseq for short. They allow you to create thread-safe data structures without locks or atomics which scale to microprocessors with many cores. It's currently only possible to use rseq on Linux using handwritten assembly code.
Congress hangs RSS uniform at Bhopal election office over Natarajan's Rajya Sabha rejection
Escalating its protest against the rejection of Congress Rajya Sabha candidate Meenakshi Natarajan’s nomination, Congress workers on Wednesday hung a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) uniform on the locked gate of the office of the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) in Bhopal, accusing constitutional institutions of functioning under ideological influence. The workers reached the CEO office in the morning, found the gate shut, briefly staged a protest and left after hanging the RSS dress outside...
Ahoy, DECmate II the little PDP-8 that could
Now, that's a lot of word processing. But under the hood it's still at least PDP-8 adjacent, even considering its oddities and incompatibilities, and you can make it do many of the things a full-size Eight can. We'll take this basic unit, convert the floppy drives to solid state, tap the video output, and put it through its paces.
The Painful Truth About Long Covid
Nothing about long Covid adds up. Consider prevalence rates: How could one study find it affected 3.3 percent of the population of the UK but others an alarming 51 percent of South Americans and 86 percent of Egyptians? Or treatment methods: The BMJ’s systematic review of ways to treat long Covid lists two as supported by moderate evidence, cognitive behavioral therapy and physical exercise.
