Greetings, my name is David Colarusso. I'm the co-director of Suffolk University Law School's Legal Innovation & Technology (LIT) Lab. With one foot in law and the other in tech, I really want the open web to thrive. So I created a bot (@icymilaw.org) and this site to help folks discover great law-themed content while showing off what one can do with sufficiently open protocols.
If you like these, you'll ❤️ The Finite Scroll, an open-source client-side algorithmically-driven RSS reader. You might also enjoy this post: How and why I (still) use social media. It includes tips on how to make your own custom social media algo(s).
In addition to the RSS feeds below, here's the legal tech feed 
powering @news.bot.suffolklitlab.org (another bot of mine).
Note, the number of fire emoji represent how many standard deviations more popular a link is than the average link observed in its category.

So, I figured since I was sharing lists, I might as well share this one too.
- Prioritizing Repeated LLM Evaluation for Hidden Failure Discovery† 🔥🔥🔥Large language models are commonly evaluated by generating a small number of stochastic responses for each prompt in a benchmark. Because inference budgets are limited, this shallow evaluation may fai...
- The calibration deficit: a challenge for Earth system simulation and emulation 🔥🔥Abstract. The latest Earth System Models (ESMs) are much more complex than previous generations, and are better at reproducing aspects of the current observed climate. However, in general, the latest ...
- An Empirical Study of Issues in GPU Kernel Libraries for LLM Systems 🔥Behind the expanding use of large language models (LLMs) across application domains lies a growing dependence on specialized GPU kernel libraries. These libraries underpin the correctness and efficiency of training and inference across diverse GPU platforms, implementing attention, GEMM, quantizati…
