Sacrifices Patch Notes

What sacrifices have you made in life? /LOGS/SACRIFICES_PATCH_NOTES_V2_FINAL_FINAL_REALTHISONE Posted by Eric | People love talking about sacrifice like it’s some inspirational LinkedIn side quest. Everybody posts motivational garbage about “the grind” while drinking energy drinks that could strip paint off a 1987 Camaro. Meanwhile actual sacrifice usually looks less cinematic. It looks like exhaustion. Silence. Missed years. Waking up one day realizing you accidentally donated huge […]

I know that if I want people to read my stuff, I need to a. write more and b. more aggressively/actively promote it. But the reality is that I'm barely keeping up with the writing I'm paid to do (juggling 10 MS right now) to have the capacity to do either consistently.

🤖 Another day, another incomprehensible jargon-filled soup about how machines are getting better at understanding pictures and words. Who knew that blending buzzwords with indecipherable acronyms could make #AI sound like it just discovered fire? 🔥 Let's all pretend we're not terrified by the impending takeover of our #multimodal #overlords. 🚀

GLM-5V-Turbo: Toward a Native Foundation Model for Multimodal Agents

We present GLM-5V-Turbo, a step toward native foundation models for multimodal agents. As foundation models are increasingly deployed in real environments, agentic capability depends not only on language reasoning, but also on the ability to perceive, interpret, and act over heterogeneous contexts such as images, videos, webpages, documents, GUIs. GLM-5V-Turbo is built around this objective: multimodal perception is integrated as a core component of reasoning, planning, tool use, and execution, rather than as an auxiliary interface to a language model. This report summarizes the main improvements behind GLM-5V-Turbo across model design, multimodal training, reinforcement learning, toolchain expansion, and integration with agent frameworks. These developments lead to strong performance in multimodal coding, visual tool use, and framework-based agentic tasks, while preserving competitive text-only coding capability. More importantly, our development process offers practical insights for building multimodal agents, highlighting the central role of multimodal perception, hierarchical optimization, and reliable end-to-end verification.

Oh joy, another tech article full of #jargon and buzzwords 🤯! "Gemma 4" sounds like the latest Marvel superhero, but it's just another AI model pretending to be useful. Go on, sprinkle more "innovation" and "faster inference" nonsense—we're all holding our breath 🙄.

One leg stand , or: A rengay

A two-person ‘Rengay’

By Svenja and David

db-sources piled sky-high—
every claim double-checked twice
to seal every seam
sk-      all thoughts and facts and numbers
      the head’s pounding, but the heart
db-behind the static
this sharp unease hovers still
not all fits in place
sk-a tickling, nickling
until the chest gets too small
no – no way to breathe
db-      a chair balanced on one leg
      it stands, though it should topple
sk-not strength rules our life
a breath to the left or right
holds on to the seam

Rengay?

Rengay is a form of linked verse created as an alternative to Japanese renga or renku. The form was devised by Garry Gay in California in 1992. A rengay consists of six thematic haiku verses and is normally composed by two or three poets, although solo and six-person rengay are not uncommon.

This form actually requires a bit of explanation, so I recommend that you read about it HERE.

Let’s write poetry together!

When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.

Ben Harper (b. 1969)

Would you like to create poetry with me and have a completed poem of yours featured here at the Skeptic’s Kaddish? I am very excited to have launched the ‘Poetry Partners’ initiative and am looking forward to meeting and creating with you… Check it out!
