SHSAT results came out and our son joins our daughter for high school at Bronx Science. I told them no pressure but it’d be nice if they can add to this list of 9 Nobel Prize winners from Bronx Science.
No pressure.

A simple experiment in arithmetic on our tool TokenProbe reveals the power of inference time scaling in LLMs: Given '33×117', token probabilities show uncertain guessing for direct computation, but near-certainty for each step when solving methodically.

Sunny G was making the point over and over again how Abhishek Sharma’s innings was full of classical strokes - and the evidence bears out. Almost all in the V - no “reverse” or “scoop” anythings

India has played 6 tests in Perth so far (won only a single test) going back to 1977. There have been six centuries, Virat Kohli has two of them.

This obsession of telecasters with the “release point” of Bumrah is a cop out for those that don’t understand his genius. It doesn’t explain the seam movement and swing he gets, the way he sets up batsmen, the way he reads the pitch and quickly adjusts his line and length.
