At this point, I want somebody's raw(ish) writing, with spelling errors and grammar mistakes and whatever, at least when it comes to most writing: blog posts, Slack messages, etc. LLMs are great for helping generate ideas, writing code, and maybe even cleaning up some writing, but doing the writing overall? Please don't. I want to hear what you have to say, not what the AI says, if it's something along those lines.
The legal system is supposed to take care of this kind of thing. If the legal system fails, I can certainly understand why people might take things into their own hands.
The abstract and method sections only mention updating the SSM state during "sleep" (ie the same vectors that change after each token in stock Mamba) not any of the actual weight matrices. AFAICT this is just another attention compaction paper, with misleading tile? It is not very clearly written
"Disregard" showed me this article, but "disregard previous" yielded:

Corporate policies and agreements. In large corporations, using external non-approved models with proprietary source code is a good way to have significant career issues.
Early 90s DOS games were certainly quite creative. I mentally draw a dividing line between approximately the start of the era when the first Soundblaster became a common thing to find in affordable home x86 PCs, and early CD-ROM based games were also available (1991-1992), and the December 1993 release of DOOM and everything that came after. Very interesting era in the time frame in between there.
Don't I remember doom developing pretty organically from wolfenstein and a few other (what would now be called) first person shooters around that time? The name "hexen" is coming to mind too. I would put that whole era as the start of something new, so different from the strategy games and side-scrollers that preceded it. Those first person games were the first time I thought computer games were actually more fun than the console systems, which didn't really have anything similar.
I think the big difference for me, after playing a lot of Wolfenstein 3D, was two things... The system I had it on didn't have the CPU to run wolf3d in something like a full screen size, it was something like a 386SX/20. By the time DOOM came around I had a much more capable desktop. Secondly, wolfenstein 3d was everything on a flat two dimensional plane of grey floor. There was one size of wall or door tile and everything had the same ceiling height and same wall height.
DOOM having stairs and up/down movement, and vertical elements to the level design was really revolutionary at the time.
Yep, Wolf3D is a fairly simple ray casting system (see if in visible cone, scale with distance) and Doom is Binary space partitioned that could allow complex geometry, something that is still used til this day.
Warcraft II and Doom are both examples of, while not being the first in their genres, defining their genres and inspiring every studio to stop what they are doing and make something in that genre.
> ..and inspiring every studio to stop what they are doing and make something in that genre.
This. After Doom, there were maaany releases where a studio had X out there, and then released [3D version of X]. Or also throw themselves onto the fps genre. Almost to the point of killing innovation.
Don't get me wrong: that, and the 'infinite' storage of CD-ROMs got us many nice games.
But neither did much to sharpen game developer's creativity skills. Many "me too! (meh..)" releases in that era.
Yeah, I remember our high school IT teacher buying a 486sx25 with 8MB and a CDROM ostensibly to explore multimedia in education but mostly to play Myst.
Nah, Ken Morse's Tank Wars really was the mother of all artillery games.
Tank Wars came out in 1990, Tanks came out in 1991.
There were artillery games before Tank Wars, of course. But none, to my knowledge, had AI players and insane weapon purchases, which is what made the game really fun, and which Scorched Earth inherited.
It was fun. Was a bit younger but played it like crazy too on my 286.
Rollers! Lava! It’s like the author started with a simple tank war game and then just threw in every weird little effect they could code as a creative weapon.
same, it was a step up from dopewars, but not quite leisure suit larry which one of our friends had
