Hi James, I saw this article about Slovenia and thought back on the great time we had presenting the Web2.0 track at VIPSI Slovenia. I keep mentioning the free 5gig account developers can get at Heroku and learn about the cloud. Please let us know how you are here at Codetown and think about your next JUG talks here in the Swamp.

Hi James and welcome to Codetown! I'm enjoying your book, "First Steps in Flex". I'm sure I'll have some questions, but it's very clear so far. Mark of a good teacher. I do have questions about deployment, but I'll wait until I've finished he book to ask. Great to have you here.

Apple's Illusion of Thinking Paper Explores Limits of Large Reasoning Models

Apple Machine Learning Research published a paper titled "The Illusion of Thinking," which investigates the abilities of Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) on a set of puzzles. As the complexity of the puzzles increases, the researchers found that LRMs encounter a "collapse" threshold where the models reduce their reasoning effort, indicating a limit to the models' scalability.

Denys Linkov shares lessons on preventing LLM production issues. He explains the flaws of single metrics, the importance of treating models as observable systems, building user-issue-alerting metrics, and focusing on business value. He emphasizes a "crawl, walk, run" approach to LLM metric maturity for successful, trust-building deployments.
