Instead of reasoning within constraint it seems to be just making stuff up to give me a plausible answer sans context. What a mess.13 May 2026 19:56 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlr3k3ozec24https://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mlqvn2qw4s2iSpeculative decode sounds so much like speculative execution. It makes me wonder in the “go check to make sure it produced the right thing” is going to be stretched similar to how speculative execution was, or if we’ll figure out how to keep it reigned in.13 May 2026 18:10 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlqvn2qw4s2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mlqgn44h2k2jI wonder if it’s actually possible to secure the backend JS supply chain. The sheer number of dependencies makes it difficult to start with, but the recent exploits feel like we maxed out on convenience at the cost of security. It’s not just them though, I’m using Python more and more and 😬13 May 2026 13:42 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlqgn44h2k2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mlpiz5lmek2pThere was a time when we needed frontend frameworks because the platform lacked native features to do a lot of what we all wanted to do. But that was 15 years ago. Are people using frameworks because they actually need them or because they fill some missing platform feature? Or is it just inertia?13 May 2026 04:52 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlpiz5lmek2phttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mloq7ebdak2sIt’s a sort of meme that engineers aren’t good writers. That includes software ones. And now we’re supposed to believe we can take an entire industry of not-that-good writers and transform them, in a few months, into people who’s primary job is not writing code but writing prose? lolwut12 May 2026 21:28 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mloq7ebdak2shttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mlmoxxsh622sI really need LLMs to add epistemic markers to their speech. Be confident enough to say “here’s my hypothesis, let’s confirm it”. Instead it’s a bunch of “ah that’s just thing x,y,z no need to pay attention to it”. Meanwhile, there’s a bunch of dead birds lying around on the floor.12 May 2026 02:00 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlmoxxsh622shttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mllyk7oftk22The bottlenecks are never where you think they are.

They produce something that’s the right shape, but rarely right. If we instead engineer systems that use AI/LLMs with a bunch of other stuff we get better results. e.g. Whisper vs WhisperX04 May 2026 01:00 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkyhu7b5p22uhttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mkwbwevups2dRemember when 2 9’s of availability was embarrassing?03 May 2026 04:08 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkwbwevups2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mgfzh2pih22vIt’s weird that I can read an article and tell that it was probably generated with an LLM. There are subtle ways that writing is structured along with word usage and argument construction that don’t feel like what a human would write. LLMs have also ruined the word “genuine” and its derivatives.06 Mar 2026 19:13 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mgfzh2pih22vhttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mep4bswep22dThe thing about doing comprehensive research projects is that the results are often shocking at first, then they gain nuance and feel like they have less punch to them, and then you round the corner of finishing up and you sit in awe at how everything just came together.12 Feb 2026 23:08 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3mep4bswep22dhttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3memfb5r7h22qI’m deep into some research. I keep running new experiments and proposing new hypotheses. With everyone so far I’m like “this can’t possibly be true” and with each one it winds up, somehow, being worse than what I had hypothesized.11 Feb 2026 21:10 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3memfb5r7h22qhttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3mb3mocmoas25Today has been an exciting day.

I do not. I’m fine with admitting I was wrong. The way I see it is if I admit I’m wrong and admit that someone else or some other viewpoint is right, then I’m right when I’m right and I’m right when I’m wrong (even if belatedly).13 Nov 2025 05:21 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3m5iga7cqvs2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3m4yqas77dk2aBaker intuition is when you put something the oven, and a couple minutes later realize you forgot to put the baking powder in, shrug for a minute and think “let’s see what happens”, then think better of it, pull it out of the oven, quickly mix in baking powder, then put it back in the oven.06 Nov 2025 23:37 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4yqas77dk2ahttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3m4wpj75eek2jI believe they call this a Humble Brag 🤭 [contains quote post or other embedded content]06 Nov 2025 04:19 +0000at://did:plc:u4nahvr54wpscnnmsg2bu633/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4wpj75eek2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/skriptble.me/post/3m4wpgzldx22jEven after all these years of baking I have some… misconceptions.
