Calendar of meaningful dates for the web by querying DCLM corpus
xkcd #1140 Calendar of meaningful dates from Google n-grams over books
He’ll see the big board!!
Plot of XKCD color names clustered by color name embedding vectors. Embeds each color name with fastText (300-d English word vectors, mean-pooled across words for multi-word names), then projects to 2D with UMAP (cosine distance).

Scoreboard for fizzbuzz benchmark with GPT-5.2-pro and Gemini 3.1-pro at the top followed by a bunch of Claude models.
Huggingface model hub page for Qwen 3.5 with 'Downloads last month' circled.
Graph leaderboard from my benchmark that measures how well LLMs can play the turn based game Fizzbuzz with standard and modified rules. Frontier, closed LLMs outperform open source LLMs by a wide margin.
Google gemini answer to my question 'Why did hank green say coal is dumb in his last video?'. It pulled the YouTube video and presumably used it to answer the question.
Adjective-noun bigrams from our datasets that occur fewer than 10 times in the DCLM corpus.
Cumulative distribution of percentage of ANs within a dataset against their count in the DCLM corpus.

An example entry from the BLFC and our dataset, with key literary devices highlighted.
2D bar chart showing how many turns different LLMs take before failing to return the right answer in 100 turns of standard FizzBuzz (blue) and a slightly different setting where they should say Buzz at multiples of 7 rather than 5 (green).
Claude saying it 'accidentally' deleted my main source file and checking if there's backups.
Number of questions on StackOverflow over time. It dips sharply after 2022 when ChatGPT came out.
2D bar chart showing how many turns different LLMs take before failing to return the right answer in 100 turns of FizzBuzz and a slightly different setting where they should say Buzz at multiples of 7 rather than 5.
Graph showing an increasing proportion of articles in the ACL anthology containing the words 'nuance' or 'fine-grain' in the title/abstract, with an explosion in the last 10 years.
Density plot with X axis being probability of text being synthetic from an AI detector model. Plots show that GPT4.1 outputs are assigned high probability of being AI text, but GPT5 outputs are assigned low probability of being AI text.
