Codetown ::: a software developer's community
Don't you think it's about time we started a JavaScript group? JavaScript has exploded. At this point, that's an understatement. We're going to focus on the whole JavaScript world here and subgroups will fall out later. HTML5, CSS, Node, Express, AngularJS, the list seems to go on forever. This is a work in progress, so stay tuned as we grow. Join this group to keep up with the latest content.
I was looking around for case studies about companies using Node and ran across this one. Uber's architecture involves Node. This discussion is a look at how the decisions were made to change the…Continue

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Anthropic's Alignment Science team released a study on poisoning attacks on LLM training. The experiments covered a range of model sizes and datasets, and found that only 250 malicious examples in pre-training data were needed to create a "backdoor" vulnerability. Anthropic concludes that these attacks actually become easier as models scale up.

Researchers from Standford, Princeton, and Cornell have developed a new benchmark to better evaluate coding abilities of large language models (LLMs). Called CodeClash, the new benchmark pits LLMs against each other in multi-round tournaments to assess their capacity to achieve competitive, high-level objectives beyond narrowly defined, task-specific problems.

Vivek Gupta shares best practices for managing and mentoring ML engineers, from early-career development to senior leadership growth. He breaks down the crucial, distinct skills for Production Machine Learning, including data/model management, building training pipelines, LLM prompt evaluation, privacy/security, and integrating human-in-the-loop processes for reliable, scalable AI systems.
