Proprietary compilers produced open source. Borland fell to gcc. The ashes of MS IIS became the need for Apache. Gecko defeated mshtml From Claude you can distill an IT model better in usefulness and efficiency You are both. Spend your money and attention wisely or risk breaking the balance

oh neat Flint is pretty fast hmm

The Apple TV app on my TV has got to be the worst streaming app I have. It makes no sense. I thought Apple was all about design but why do I have press right to go back when I open the menu? This thing is nonsense.

Is it too early to get them to fall for the "Schools are trying to teach your kids Arabic numerals!" or would Loomer's 3 brain cells remember that just happened recently?

I feel like anyone that knows anything about Theranos left this movie thinking "Did I seriously just waste 3 hours for people on the internet to believe a genius artful direction was a bunk interview?"

See, I used to believe in the whole evolving marketplace of ideas naturally having a consensus of what pure stupidity is ... I was wrong. I was really wrong. You aren't a real rational accelerationist if you keep this kind of shit on your shoe.

Americans: "There is only one language. It's English. If someone has something important to say they can translate it" (note: it's not the right that have this opinion) Also Americans: "Oh shit twitter has autotranslate on posts now that's so innovative that's so amazing" Also Americans: "Fuck AI"

I'm again going to jab bluesky developers. The FUD happening around all the open weights models being inherently and intentionally less secure are fixed by... 🥁 hooks and a fucking proxy, ffs but yolo your microvms or whatever

tiny reminder that unsloth studio literally exists

idea: collect interviews, literature, and recordings from endangered languages and use them to train LLMs as a way to preserve culture in an interactive/human-like format

ugh you all are going to make me have to show you what acp does :|

no i will not join your discord to get updates you should have a website please just make a website make a website

*taps the sign* At least people are waking up to this inb4 someone yells at me that it requires a trillion dollars to make a 3T model because that's the minimum required to accomplish anything 🤦

I like this experiment Gonna have to tweak it a little to see if it can flag when they drink "Protein Water" (this is beef industry slop) or eat almonds

It's pretty common to see stupid takes like Ed Zitron claiming Pokemon Go has more downloads than mobile apps for chat bots therefore failure but like... I don't have an Oracle sub Zitron and Fox News are entertainment only making reactionary points that make no sense to anyone older than 12

I refuse to use cruise control or lane assist while driving because it's scientifically proven that using those things are like heroin and I will stop being able to use the pedals or steering wheel ... is how I read Bluesky posts

I miss when "quirky tech person" meant someone that wanted to replace all of their outlets in their home with 12V because they were tired of looking at wallwarts. Kind of tired of the era of it meaning racism and cheering when Lucky Palmer announces he's a pit bull breeder.

you’re nuts if you’re not using adguard or pihole or something tbqh, as well as using separate subnets for these things. my samsung has the second most blocked requests second only to a windows gaming PC lol. not even the cheap IoT devices compare

A fun experiment would be to find what country the maintainers favoring this live in. Wild to see the literal story of the Tower of Babel reenacted every few weeks

Nathan: Do you understand why this is funny? Elizabeth: Because he never finished the point he was making about gang violence? Billy [rewinding the video to its beginning and studying it at 1/4 speed]: THANK YOU FOR SHOWING US THIS

This does make me wonder if all the non-US members of twitter reposting "Cheesecake Factory is fine dining" think all middle class Americans only eat meatloaf and cheesecake.

... have I mentioned how much I love the new uv add --script maindotpy httpx2 and inline dependencies? I really love that.

"The value has moved to understanding what users actually need" That's optimistic af. Users actually need documented API whether it's local or cloud. That's it. That's the answer. But there's not a good way to insert ads into an API so we'll never get that.

Sometimes I want to go back and try to collect all the newspaper opeds from Karen McKarennetty saying they would never order anything online because computers glitch and y2k caused cattle stillbirth. I bet she makes AI ghibli of her grandchildren now.

Me: "Why won't this machine start?" Also me, 2 hours ago: "I think I'll take all of the RAM out of this machine to upgrade the other one." Me, probably 2 minutes from now: "Oh, right, I took the RAM out"

yes but tbf tbf tbf tbf tbf you get recipes for post training the open weight Chinese models Google has always done this with gemma, so this is another gap between the "ai developers" and actual AI industry. Want your model to babble about Tiananmen Square instead of Mao? It's not that hard...

Sooo yeah, Talos Linux does run on a jailbroken PS5. For now I can't bootstrap the Kubernetes part and kubelet is not starting up. I'll get back to it later. This is fun.

Here's the other reason I tell people to just get fedora: You can be lazy af and just use cockpit to run stuff from a phone

And that's how you get a 110% increase in tokens per second ... really silly these come with a single dimm :|

Time for upgrade If you get one of these and want to use it with linux the default wifi adapter is trash. Rusty trusty Intel AX210s are like $20 on amazon

This is a list of the best paid representatives at MonaVie and AmWay They are so inept that the only way they could generate cash flow is by MLM scams funded by Musk

Imma just mention the Texans I've met are not in sync with their politicians and I would expect them to run this guy directly out of office for letting a trillionaire buy him to open asymmetric legal warfare in wild opposition to freedom and capitalism Selling out is a wild choice in that state

People say AI steals art but my usual first query test is "It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake" and I've never once had a response tell me about Lazytown

I like this and I wish I could explain this better I guess it's just solipsism or something. People think Steve Jobs invented iPhones and he did nothing but thrash around and die of preventable disease. I thought everyone knew that.

I kind of like the shape of this keyboard but once again apparently new keyboard designers have no idea that we have thumbs... and left out the thumb cluster I think keyboard designers are cats

How does it just keep happening? It's a mystery

got bonsai and 27b running decently on my Rx 6700 (10GB VRAM), packages as a nix flake so anyone can run it with minimal work 9b -- 813 tokens/s prefill, 84 tokens//s 27B -- 267 tokens/s prefill, 26 tokens/s github.com/alyraffauf/b...

send help, there's been a crime Friend: "I set everything up with microvms just like you were talking about. It was so easy." ... 5 minutes later Me: "Wait this chat log says it can ssh to a metal node???" Friend: "Yeah, I set up ssh keys. Duh. How else is it going to do maintenance?"

I feel like an offline homelab enclave is becoming more attractive after the last couple of days.

People really do not understand the horrors. I inherited an ETL pipeline for US customers that had 3 settings to "correct" DST: [-1, 0, 1] If LLM usage is "like heroin" then having to look at that horror is like sniffing model glue between sips of wood alcohol

Remember when running torch or vllm cooked your PC and wrecked the display adapter to the point that every run was a crap shoot on if it finishes or resulted in a kernel panic, hard lock, pink flickering screen? Pepperidge farms remembers.

One of the reasons I'm so annoyed at that movie is Billy is just That Guy. Most tech company has someone that babbles, snorts, and puts a pin in it because they hear you just to end up trying to pitch AI Lasers and Tesla.

Somehow microcenter doesn't have the dimms I need so I guess I'm going to pause this for Amazon. I still need another 9070 and oof... they're not getting cheaper.

the great Astral project to make Python into Rust continues. thank fuck astral.sh/blog/uv-ty-i...
