I like cats. Machine Learning engineer before it was cool. Agents are finite state machines. Boxing enthusiast. Opinions are my own.
Get ready for another week of breakthroughs
This is spot on, Moltbook hype is just AI fanboy navel-gazing. LLMs faking Reddit threads is uninteresting. OpenClaw is the real sauce. It showed us what a true personal AI agent looks like; accessing files, photos, & tasks. It’s the smart, integrated assistant that Siri and Google should have been

Also, we should take responsibility for the code we submit regardless of how it was generated, and part of the review process helps me gain enough confidence to make that decision.
I remember when the promise of AI was mostly about curing illnesses, enhancing cyber security and ethics in AI was a thing
"We are very well aware of the fact that X for Grok is now offering a spicy mode showing explicit sexual content. This is not spicy. This is illegal. This is appalling. This is disgusting. I can confirm we are very seriously looking into this matter." — Spokesperson @thomasregnier.ec.europa.eu
One of the underrated papers this year: "Small Batch Size Training for Language Models: When Vanilla SGD Works, and Why Gradient Accumulation Is Wasteful" (arxiv.org/abs/2507.07101) (I can confirm this holds for RLVR, too! I have some experiments to share soon.)
Hearts at the PSF are full today from the responses about the recent grant turn down news we shared. All of your kind words of support & solidarity, as well as your donations & new memberships, mean the world to us. We're so grateful to be in community with each of you 💛🐍💙
TLDR; The PSF has made the decision to put our community and our shared diversity, equity, and inclusion values ahead of seeking $1.5M in new revenue. Please read and share. pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-... 🧵

I'm beyond excited to be hosting @kelseyhightower.com on The Developer Show @gitlab.com - alongside Emilio Salvador, our VP of DevRel & Strategy! We will chat about all things AI - including what skills actually matter for the future of work! 📅 Oct 28 at 10am PT: lnkd.in/gedx6ANv
New post: Controlling IP traffic on your webserver A cool part about having your own webserver is that you get to choose who can visit. When IP addresses try to access sensitive files or aggressively scrape, you can just block them. Here's how. brandonrohrer.com/hosting5.html
Analysts who excel at self-promotion on LinkedIn are worse at their jobs, but experience the highest rates of promotion. klementoninvesting.substack.com/p/self-promo...
Self-promotion works, especially if you are bad at your job
I have come across a recent paper that measures equity analysts self-representation on LinkedIn and the tone they use to describe their research and their views on LinkedIn and in the media.

For all 3 of you that are trying to use pytest with uv, I learned this incantation that helps pytest use your project's uv virtual environment: uv add pytest --dev uv run pytest (not `uvx pytest`, as I first assumed)
Great post that captures the tension between classic ML approaches and modern deep learning while acknowledging the nuances of both. “Working with LLMs doesn’t feel the same. It’s like fitting pieces into a pre-defined puzzle instead of building the puzzle itself.” www.reddit.com/r/MachineLea...
