The approach vector [green] and an approximate trajectory [blue] of an aircraft [the second one] that had been doing a bombing run at the time of the 2023-10-17 Al-Ahli hospital explosion. 3 red pins - geolocated explosions, green pins - candidates for other 11 airstrikes.

1/54🧵Thanks for completely ignoring the other information I presented regarding Asad killing Palestinians en masse, but I don't expect a Mate glazer to be a critical or a thorough "Journalist". Here are the lies about Syria that Maté spewed in your softball interview.👇🏻

@LevantAffair2 @aaronjmate Feel free to identify a specific lie from the interview.

1/ We introduce SODA: a simple optimizer wrapper that improves a base optimizer, adds no hyperparameters, and removes the need to tune weight decay. The wrapper provides consistent improvement. Most notably, SODA(Muon) beats Muon even when Muon gets a tuned weight decay sweep.

SODA shows that Muon, Lion, NAdam, and others are all special cases of Optimistic Dual Averaging! A simple wrapper around any base optimizer can replace weight decay tuning with a principled 1/(k+2) schedule; no new HPs. Practical results seem promising! arxiv.org/abs/2605.11172

The first ProgramBench task was just solved by GPT 5.5 high/xhigh. Interestingly, high/xhigh picked two different languages for the task (C vs Python). GPT 5.5 xhigh was significantly better than Opus 4.7 xhigh in all metrics. 🧵

@polphiloecon @just_whatever Oh headshots with bullets impacting heads as if from above / 45 degrees and staying intact and inside skulls, here are couple of realistic scenarios with ballistic calculations and bullet trajectories: x.com/TedNoNumbers/s…
Ted@TedNoNumbers

On Israeli GHF "aid" site murders. Warning shots with 5.56 NATO targeted ~7 meters above the heads of people 600m away would be at muzzle height at ~1000m distance traveling at 270m/s, possibly killing or injuring any 1.7m tall person standing in the last ~55m of the trajectory.

@polphiloecon @just_whatever Israeli forces do a lot of long distance shooting, and have short barrelled rifles [lower muzzle velocity], so non-deformed / non-fragmented bullets in bodies of killed/injured are common

@polphiloecon @just_whatever FMJ 5.56 NATO bullet produced by different manufacturers/countries can have wildly different patterns of fragmentation. The below is about 7.62 NATO, but still should provide sufficient support for the above statement. #7.62x51mm%20NATO%20(West%20German%20version)" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">ciar.org/ttk/mbt/papers…

One of the most striking indictments of US news media made in the Kristof piece, unintentionally, is that we are given an incredible example of how the word of Israelis is taken without any shred of evidence while Palestinians must provide every detail imaginable of the violence inflicted against them, and even then their suffering is treated, at best, as secondary if even acknowledged. Also worth noting that Screams without Words was an official investigation by the New York Times and this report is in the opinion section.

This is a technical post to document Lebanese casualty toll post-"ceasefire". TLDR: Israel has killed 343 people & wounded 1045 since "ceasefire" was announced Apr 17. Last 48 hrs have been particularly deadly w/ 87 killed & 181 wounded (what kind of fake ceasefire is this?)

I lost track of time again >.< I'm really sorry if you DMed me lately. I promise to go over my DMs! --- This sprint, I built a Lean4-to-TileLang Tensor Program Superoptimizer. With this, I now have a formal infrastructure where I (or my agents) can define neural network architectures in Lean4, and automatically get: 1. Optimized IO-aware accelerator kernels in TileLang. It can find FlashAttention2, FlashNorm, split-k matmul, and others automatically. I'm currently getting a ~1.8x geomean speedup on my benchmark set on A100s. 2. Optimizer choices and parametrization that enable hyperparameter transfer across width and depth (see my previous blog posts). 3. Hyperparameter scaling laws that tell us how to adjust hyperparameters as we scale batch size, training horizon, dataset size, and etc. (see quoted tweet). 4. Low-rank proxies for the optimizers to speed up hyperparameter tuning at small scales and have them transfer to the full-rank case (we have an upcoming paper on this, stay tuned!).

'Autoresearch', but for theoretical science? I formalized my blog posts on steepest descent convergence bounds and hyperparameter scaling laws in Lean using Codex. This started as an art project, but I ended up having similar (almost exactly the same) results as prior work while having much weaker assumptions so I think I may be onto something here 👀 This is also a glimpse of how theoretical science might look like in the near future. LLMs are good now at "reverse mathematics" where instead of asking what results we can get from a set of assumptions, we instead ask, "what's the minimal set of assumptions/axioms/postulates we need to reproduce (empirical) results?"

@DrugGovoruna @tracewoodgrains And on fragmentation / deformation see: x.com/TedNoNumbers/s…
Ted@TedNoNumbers

@denying_history He is making an incorrect argument. The most commonly used by Israeli forces M193 5.56 NATO bullets, which are FMJ, tend to not to fragment inside wounds if they are fired from further than 130m. But they do tend to fragment at higher speeds [shorter distances / longer barrels].
