    AutoThink – Boosts local LLM performance with adaptive reasoning2025 · ▲397

    I built AutoThink, a technique that makes local LLMs reason more efficiently by adaptively allocating computational resources based on query complexity. The core idea: instead of giving every query the same "thinking time," classify queries as HIGH or LOW complexity and allocate thinking tokens accordingly. Complex reasoning gets 70-90% of tokens, simple queries get 20-40%. I also implemented steering vectors derived from Pivotal Token Search (originally from Microsoft's Phi-4 paper) that guide the model's reasoning patterns during generation. These vectors encourage behaviors like numerical…

    Pencil Puzzle Bench – LLM Benchmark for Multi-Step Verifiable ReasoningMar 2026 · ppbench.com · ▲5

    I've been working on applying LLMs to long-context, verifiable problems over the past year, and today I'm releasing a benchmark of 62,000 pencil puzzles across 94 types (sudoku, nonori, slitherlink, etc.). The benchmark also allows for intermediate checks /rule breaks for all varieties at any step. I tested 51 models against a subset (300 puzzles) in two modes: single-shot (output the full solution) and agentic (iterate with verifier feedback). Some results: - Best model (GPT 5.2@xhigh) solves 56%. (~ half the puzzles are unsolved by any model) - Agentic solves average 29 turns. The…

  • Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https://github.com/DOSAYGO-STUDIO/HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
