    Open-sourced jev architecture last year with model,paper and dataset

    by nandakishor_ml · about 2 hours ago

    Everyone now talks about the architecture that's not auto regressive and does lightning fast probability prediction with a json schema. I worked on this literally one year back in March 2025, published an arxiv paper, pushed the model to huggingface along with the pypi package and training dataset. And then one year later, a frontier lab came, proposing the same idea like literal breakthrough without technical papers, open weights and no open dataset. For anyones information the main guiding model is RL not embedding model or LLM

    Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.23303

    Model: https://huggingface.co/DeepMostInnovations/sales-conversion-model-reinf-learning

    Dataset: https://huggingface.co/datasets/DeepMostInnovations/saas-sales-conversations

    Also the second work published in September 2025 was exactly the same one jev proposed now

    Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.01237

    My model uses PPO over sequence embeddings to output turn-by-turn conversion trajectories (probabilities from 0.0 to 1.0).

    Jev uses parallel sampling (trained via RLCD) to output confidence distributions and schema choices.

    It's incredibly frustrating that the thing that you made with months of hard work, sweat and sleepless night is architecturally similar with the vertical use case and don't get the support you deserve because frontier lab build something horizontal. The open-source story in general

    Can I get insurance for company renting humanoids for parties?

    by cpsk · about 9 hours ago

    It feels like an daunting and impossible task to find insurance for a company trying to rent humanoids for events and parties. How in the world are Neos and Telsa Optimus going to get insurance coverage if they are inside a home?

    Are they just big players so they can get hold of risk underwriters and get them to approve it. But a small company that is trying to build rent robots for parties or conduct educational workshops using humanoids cannot get even general liability.

    Zuck's bot increased our Vercel bill 10x

    by Marciok · about 10 hours ago

    I’m writing this after receiving a Vercel bill that was 10x higher than usual.

    The worst part: The increase wasn’t caused by more users, but by +1M requests from meta-externalagent/1.1.

    The requests targeted a Vercel preview deployment that we had shared on WhatsApp to test whether its link-preview metadata was working correctly.

    We naively never bothered with bot calls; they had never caused any problems in the previous four years of our app on Vercel, but that changed when Meta’s crawler began repeatedly visiting this preview deployment.

    If you host on Vercel, review your bot-protection settings and make sure preview deployments aren’t unnecessarily exposed. Otherwise, an aggressive crawler could leave you with a surprisingly large bill. And unfortunately, Vercel declined to help to ease this bill.

    Zuck is definitely not slowing down.

    by lucasoshiro · 1 day ago

    Hi there!

    I've just upgraded my Mac and iPad OSes to 27 and found some interesting features that I haven't seen listed elsewhere:

    - Screen mirroring to iPad now accepts touchscreen inputs

    - iPad menu bar can now be always turned on

    - The sidebars aren't floating, just like before Tahoe

    - Decreased window border radius

    - Increased resize window area

    We struggled with DevOps, so built a open source agentic platform just for this

    by abmuhammadhamza · 1 day ago

    As a developer with some years of experience and with 150+ projects completed, me and my team learnt devops the hard way. Multiple fixes, compatibility issues, server issues, random vulnerabilities appearing out on framework level out of nowhere; it was all a mess.

    After a lot of struggle, we decided that’s enough and we need to find a solution for this. That’s when we started to work on Putmein.

    - Putmein has agentic chat interface, where you can plug your AI of choice and chat to your server directly. - It has 24/7 SRE monitoring - CI/CD pipeline checks - Single step deployment - Integrated security audits for all the projects - Sever monitoring - Container handling

    It is one single source to manage anything in a server. Planning to make everything more useful and robust and I've started using it in my day to day life now.
