Delayed post about… delays paper🙃

We derive & simulate a macro linear model driven by long-range axon ✨delays✨ (so very few params) and show it captures key resting EEG features (incl. alpha & coherence)

Investigation into sexual harassment at my school - Russia’s hyper-selective top phys-math lyceum, known for brutal academic rigor - to which I unfortunately had smth to contribute. This isn’t unique, many post-Soviet institutions face the same crap. Please have a look if you can (see thread)

In this preprint, @chris-pinier.bsky.social shows that open-source LLMs can perform abstract reasoning tasks, that LLMs have representations of pattern type in intermediate layers, and that LLM activations correspond to Fixation Related Potentials from participants' EEG.

Small but dedicated @elixir-nl.bsky.social contingent braving 33°C and sunny weather while climbing the ten towers of the Heptapyrgion, hiking down to the Atatürk Museum and the Roman Forum of Thessaloniki (both closed). Still, a very nice way to spend an afternoon [email protected] All Hands.
