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…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
LLM was given weights explicitly as text in prompt and used code/forward passes (per authors' logs) to ablate Qwen looping direction, a known thinking-mode issue per model card. Primarily fixed repetition in that mode, not general 'natively' improving weights/math.

So, the French socialists, and Parliament members just voted a tax, that they don’t understand, which would cost VideoLAN more than 1 million euro per year.
They are probably the most clueless politician on Earth? And they claim they want technological sovereignty…

Si vous avez téléchargé aujourd'hui la dernière version de CLI d'OVHcloud, merci de la mettre à jour à nouveau très rapidement. Sinon effacer. Il s'agit de repo:
github.com/ovh/ovhcloud-cli
La version CLI de 14h47 a été compromise par un hacker. Nous l'avons détecté et bloqué à 16h21. Merci au client qui nous a remonté le souci. La version compromise est v0.11.0 v0.12.0 v0.13.0 v0.14.0 v0.15.0.
La version v0.10.0 et la future 0.16.0 est clean.
On vient de finit les premières vérifications et aucun autre repo n'est affecté. Nous avons aussi retracé l'incident. Le hacker a utilisé le compte github d'un des développeurs et a ajouté un binaire dont le job est récupérer les secrets sur le disque. La qualité du binaire est médiocre mais il peut aller jusqu'au bout. Si vous êtes concernés, merci de changer tous les secrets sur votre disque.
On continue les recherches sur le binaire et on va publier les détails additionnels sous peu.

⚡️ 🇱🇻 BREAKING: Armed men from Belarus crossed into Latvia
A group of masked men attempted to force around 20 illegal migrants across the border. The men were armed and threatened Latvian troops.
Latvia’s armed forces said the incident was particularly demonstrative and aggressive compared with many previous provocations.
Several hours later, the men managed to enter EU territory, damaged an electrical distribution box and stole surveillance cameras before returning to Belarus, Interior Minister Jānis Dombrava said.

Based on the information collected by the Estonian Internal Security Service @kaitsepolitsei we can conclude with certainty that the arson attack on Milrem Robotics premises that took place on the night of 14–15 august in Tallinn was an act of sabotage ordered by the special services of the Russian Federation.
Such actions are absolutely unacceptable. In response, the @MFAestonia will today summon Russia’s Chargé d’affaires.
The perpetrators have been apprehended and no longer pose a threat to our national security. Estonia is a difficult environment for Russia to carry out such actions because we act decisively and swiftly to protect our state.
This act of sabotage is part of Russia’s broader campaign across Europe, aimed at intimidating us and weakening our support for Ukraine.
Our response will be the opposite. We will increase both our support for Ukraine and the pressure on Russia to end its aggression.
Let’s not lose focus and stay the course, because Russia’s actions are a clear indication that our collective exertion of pressure is working.

Today, September 22, we remember the Estonian resistance struggle in 1944. It is a day when we honour those brave soldiers, Forest Brothers and statesmen who, faced with a hopeless situation, gave their last contribution to the defense of their homeland.
🇪🇪 Elagu Eesti! 🇪🇪
ALT Estonian Forest Brothers. The Forest Brothers were men and women who fought armed battles against the occupying forces in 1940-1941 and from September 1944, when Estonia was occupied by communist Russia.

Big week ahead in Tallinn! 🇪🇪
More than 4,000 participants from across Europe and Allied nations will gather for Estonian Defence Week, 21–25 September.
Under the theme “How to Win the Next War?”, political and military leaders, defence industry executives, tech companies, investors and innovators will tackle one key question: how do we turn record defence investment and rapid technological innovation into real capabilities on the battlefield?
Five days. One shared goal: turning ideas, investment and innovation into the capabilities Europe needs to defend itself.
The programme also includes the @ICDS_Tallinn Annual Conference ABCD, bringing leading experts together to discuss Europe’s security and defence.
