Just image Transformers (JiT)

JiTs are simple large-patch Transformers that operate on raw pixels, no tokenizer, pre-training, or extra losses needed. JiT excels in high-dimensional spaces where traditional noise-predicting models can fail.

When I visit Korea, I love eating these Korean dishes — they’re incredibly tasty, healthy, and dirt-cheap, even by Korean standards, less than USD $5:

- Siraegi Soup (시락국)
- Beansprout Soup (콩나물국밥)
- Noodles in Anchovy Broth (멸치국수)

Cloudflare’s bot-detection ML system expected a limited number of features, but a database permissions change caused the feature file to suddenly contain far more features than allowed. This overflow caused the bot-detection module to crash, which in turn disrupted Cloudflare’s core traffic.

Google Antigravity was developed by the former Windsurf development team, so it’s not surprising that they reused the Windsurf codebase.

"Cascade" is WindSurf's old agent.

So… Wei-Ren Luo has retired from TSMC at age 75 and may now re-join Intel as an Executive Vice President (EVP) overseeing the wafer manufacturing group and R&D.

He played a key role in TSMC’s large-scale EUV adoption after spending roughly 20 years at Intel earlier in his career.

I really like the new Steam Machine’s form factor. I’m looking forward to buying one of the many expected variants soon.
Valve showing off #Blender and #Godot on the new #SteamMachine (running #Linux and #KDE) promo material presents a complete and competent #FOSS stack for #GameDev - worth a moment of appreciation.
