All life on Earth can be traced back to a Last Universal Common Ancestor, or LUCA—and it likely lived on Earth only 400 million years after its formation.

Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) has proven to be a useful algorithm for training LLMs to reason and improve on benchmarks. DeepSeek-R1 showed that you can bootstrap a model through a combination of supervised fine-tuning and GRPO to compete with the state of the art models such as OpenAI's o1.

To learn more about how it works in practice, we wanted to try out some of the techniques on a real world task. This post will outline how to train your own custom small LLM using GRPO, your own

Bjarne Stroustrup wants standards body to respond to memory-safety push as Rust monsters lurk at the door

The new US administration has removed everything from the White House web site and fired most of the CISA people who worked on memory safety…

The new requirements were to work for a news organization, have a local address, show up at least once every six months, and have "Accreditation by a press gallery in either the U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, or Supreme Court." Details in paragraph 7-8 of that article. So Trump is using nontransparent criteria of their own, while Biden had a non political published standard.

Ruling party was deeply unpopular but threat of US tariffs combined with prospect of new leader spurs rise in polls

A Leger poll released on Tuesday put the Conservatives on 38% public support with the Liberals on 35%, compared with 43% and 21% respectively in December. And an Ekos poll, also released on Tuesday, put the Liberals on 38% and the Conservatives on 37%.

We investigate whether firm-level political connections affect the allocation of exemptions from tariffs imposed on $US 550 billion of Chinese goods imported to the United States annually beginning in 2018. Evidence points to politicians not only rewarding supporters but also punishing opponents: Past campaign contributions to the party controlling (in opposition to) the executive branch increase (decrease) approval likelihood. Our findings point to quid pro quo arrangements between politicians and firms, as opposed to the “information” channel linking political access to regulatory outcomes.

a 1-standard-deviation increase in contributions to Republican (Democrat) candidates increases the probability of approval by 3.94 (decreases the probability of approval by 3.40) percentage points

Was US President Donald Trump a secret Russian spy in 1987? A former officer of Russia's spy agency Komitet Gosudarstvennoy Bezopasnosti (KGB) has claimed that US president Donald Trump was groomed 37 years ago as a "potential Soviet asset'. According to him, the Soviet administration recruited Trump, who was then a 40-year-old businessmen, under a pseudonym ‘Krasnov.

Tax cuts for the wealthy didn't boost the economies of the U.S. and 17 other countries — but they did worsen income inequality.

"Based on our research, we would argue that the economic rationale for keeping taxes on the rich low is weak," Julian Limberg, a co-author of the study and a lecturer in public policy at King's College London, said in an email to CBS MoneyWatch. "In fact, if we look back into history, the period with the highest taxes on the rich — the postwar period — was also a period with high economic growth and low unemployment."

Already, Mr. Trump's tax cuts have lifted the fortunes of the ultra-rich, according to 2019 research from two prominent economists, Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman of the University of California at Berkeley. For the first time in a century, the 400 richest American families paid lower taxes in 2018 than people in the middle class, the economists found.

Only about half the U.S. population is invested in the stock market through their retirement and savings accounts, and even then more than 80% of all stocks are owned by the richest 10%.
