Overclocking LLM Reasoning: Monitoring and Controlling LLM Thinking Path Lengths

news.ycombinator.com Roy Eisenstadt 2025-08-30 12:53:13

This work investigates how large reasoning models internally track their thinking progress and how such processes can be monitored and controlled. We focus on reasoning models that explicitly segment their computations using <think> and </think> tokens (e.g., DeepSeek-R1), allowing us to study the internal dynamics of the "thinking phase." 1. Monitoring the Thinking Phase We hypothesize that hidden states encode a token's relative position within the thinking phase. To test this, we collect hi

Lessons from creating my first text adventure

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-28 13:48:19

It’s very easy to accidentally try to create too large a text adventure. My first attempt was way too ambitious, and would have taken months to finish. I still love the idea for that, but it had to go. I picked another idea that was much smaller in scope, but it, too, grew too ambitious. I restarted one more time, from an idea that was even more pared down, and I was actually able to finish that game. With the minimalistic scope it took maybe fifteen hours of active work to create most of the ga

Bitcoin Bought in 2011 Suddenly Springs to Life After 13 Million Percent Increase In Value

Two Bitcoin wallets that remained untouched for more than a decade just sprang back to life — and whoever owns them is now filthy rich in crypto. As MarketWatch reports, each Bitcoin was worth just 78 cents back when the unknown buyer purchased 20,000 tokens in 2011 for just under $16,000. Due to the digital currency's inexorable rise over the subsequent years, the extremely patient owner of the two "Sleeping Beauty" wallets where the Bitcoin was stored now holds more than $2 billion worth — a

How to get started with Old English poetry

news.ycombinator.com Colin Gorrie 2025-08-29 00:56:15

The Shipwreck (1805), Joseph Mallord William Turner Most people who know anything at all about Old English poetry will be aware of the existence of Beowulf. Perhaps they will even have read it. But far fewer will be aware of the 90% of Old English poetry that is not Beowulf. It’s a shame, because the back catalogue of Old English poetry — the deep cuts — are well worth reading. And, in general, these poems are much easier (and shorter) to read than Beowulf. The entire corpus of surviving poet

A Canadian's AI hoax duped the media and propelled a 'band' to success

A man using the pseudonym Andrew Frelon posed as the spokesperson for a band called The Velvet Sundown — which he later said he had no involvement with — creating a media frenzy that propelled the AI-assisted "band" to a million monthly listeners on Spotify.

Volunteer finds Holy Grail of abolitionist-era Baptist documents

By MICHAEL CASEY GROTON, Mass. (AP) — Jennifer Cromack was combing through the American Baptist archive when she uncovered a slim box among some 18th and 19th century journals. Opening it, she found a scroll in pristine condition. A closer look revealed the 5-foot-long (1.5-meter-long) document was a handwritten declaration titled “A Resolution and Protest Against Slavery,” signed by 116 New England ministers in Boston and adopted March 2, 1847.
