The AI race: China's open-weight models trail US closed models by just 7 months

Source: whatmodel.sh, an open source AI leaderboard.

Every point comes from published benchmark results: 22,113 of them across 987 benchmarks, from 1,011 sources, each one linked to where it was published.

This chart uses data for the text models: 18,755 results for 1,211 models on 617 benchmarks.

  • 14,436 results are independent evaluations: papers whose authors ran the models themselves (mostly CC BY papers from the ACL Anthology and arXiv), Epoch AI, the LMArena dataset, EvalPlus, the EleutherAI harness and others.

  • 7,677 are scores labs report for their own models, labelled as lab-reported.

Everything is open: the dataset (CC BY-SA 4.0) and the scoring code (MIT) are at https://github.com/jakemanger/whatmodel, with CSV downloads at https://whatmodel.sh/data/manifest.json. Every number links back to its source, and each source's licence is recorded.

Godot can do really amazing things!

This is a marble run builder I've been working on for my son. Its inspired by Townscaper with just clicking to build and find the different patterns like tunnels, spirals, steps, and more!

Decided to take my hand at making a trailer for it as well. What do y'all think?

Found this on r/godot and thought it was worth sharing here. Link to the original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/godot/comments/1wohnea/godot_can_do_really_amazing_things/

Terraria with RetroAchievements on Android

cross-posted from: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/66737678

RetroAchievements for Terraria require tModLoader, which you normally can't run on Android. I tried getting it to work with GameNative, but had no success.

But recently, I discovered this Android app that lets you run desktop .NET apps: https://github.com/FireworkSky/RotatingartLauncher

The installation is pretty straightforward: you just specify the path to the GOG Linux version of Terraria and the path to a ZIP file containing tModLoader.

For mods, I downloaded them on my PC through Steam and simply copied the .tmod files to:

<Internal storage>/RALauncher/Terraria/tModLoader/Mods

For save files, I set up Syncthing to sync ~/.local/share/Terraria/tModLoader/ to: <Internal storage>/RALauncher/Terraria/tModLoader

By default, the game opens stretched at a much lower resolution, but going to Settings -> Video -> Fullscreen automatically sets the correct resolution.

To log in to RetroAchievements, I had to connect a keyboard to enter my username and password. While doing so, I noticed a small bug: connecting a keyboard while the game is running crashes it.

I haven't seen this app mentioned on Lemmy, so I hope someone finds this useful.

P.S. The handheld in the picture is an AYN Thor.

Simone from Barbie Looks 10

Mattel usually reuses their face sculpts and just paints them differently. This one is called Simone.

I had this Simone, but I always liked the one from Barbie Looks that my wife has. There's something about this fierce look.

But recently, my wife found someone selling her head without a body for cheap. Looks 10 has an articulated body, so she is commonly used as a body donor for other dolls. It's just that there aren't many articulated dolls with this deep black skin tone. Most Black dolls are more on the brown side. For example, here she is alongside Barbie Basics 09:

Luckily, I dislike Mattel bodies anyway, so we decided to buy it and swap the head with my old Simone's. I gave the old head to my wife. I just don't like having many dolls. I feel like I'd play with them less that way 🙂

Original head side by side:

And a few more photos just for fun:

Barbie Princess of Portuguese

cross-posted from: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/66295334

Not very princess-like in this look 😅

Bought these shorts and top from a local maker.

I think she did an excellent job. The shorts have real pockets:

And they have a little snap at the back:

The top closes with Velcro at the back:

A few more photos:

Really like these sneakers from Zuru balls. They're massive, so she can stand on her own in them:

As for the doll herself: I like her a lot, but her wavy hair require some maintenance. I have to comb them from time to time.
