We asked GPT-6 Astra to edit Qwen3.5-0.8B weights to improve math. It directly changed only 0.016% of weights, fixing 0.8B's reasoning loops & improving math up to 6x and even instruction following 3x, without gradients or training. We call this Weight-Space Programming: frontier LLMs can now natively read/write neural network weights! 🧵 Blog: rikiyat.github.io/blog/weigh…

At Global Blockchain Show Abu Dhabi (December 10–11), the speaker list matters. But the organisations in the room could matter even more. Three groups worth paying attention to: • Government entities: Shaping regulations, supporting initiatives, and driving pilot programmes. • Investors: Identifying promising projects and deciding where capital flows. • Innovators: Building the technologies and solutions shaping the future of blockchain. The real value of an event is not just who takes the stage. It is who you meet, what you learn, and the opportunities you create.

The key is to know what you want to achieve before you arrive. See the event details: evs-kenya.com/
