GLM-5.3: Frontier Coding with Emergent Cyber Capabilities
Scaling post-training is all we did for GLM-5.3. With GLM-5.2 we built the stack: IndexShare for efficient long-context processing, SAO for RL on long-horizon tasks, and slime for large-scale asynchronous training — all running on the long-horizon task environ…
Understanding is the new bottleneck
Agents can write code faster than we can absorb it. Here's why it still matters for humans to understand what they build — and some techniques for doing that efficiently: explainer docs, quizzes, micro-worlds, and shared spaces.
This is my skinner box! It was made for me!

What’s behind the rise of teens spying for Russia?
Russian secret services are using gamification to recruit teen spies. How far could this go?
Compute-Optimal Is Not Cluster-Optimal — Sheng Zha
Our new paper folds the systems stage into the scaling-law stage. Price every candidate architecture on what the cluster actually delivers, and the answer changes: the sparsity an MoE 'should' have depends on the cluster you train it on.
I want extern "fil-c"
Compile legacy C with Fil-C, call it safely from Rust, and make runtime checks the tax for not migrating the hot path.
Choose Boring Technology
Probably the single best thing to happen to me in my career was having had Kellan placed in charge of me. I stuck around long enough to see Kellan’s technical decisionmaking start to bear fruit. I learned a great deal from this, but I also learned a great deal…

Use Xcode 27's headless MCP server and Apple's agent skills to build, preview, and verify an iOS app
30× faster binary multivector ColBERT late interaction in Vespa
A key advantage of Vespa against other search databases is the ease with which you can index multiple chunks of a long document in a multi-vector fashion. This is convenient in RAG applications as it allows your overall document score to be an arbitrary score …
