so when MiniMax released a pretty capable model, you choose to ignore the model itself and just focus a single sentence they wrote in the release note and started bad mouthing it.
is it a cultural thing?
- simlevesque 10mo agoIf I use a software I need to trust it.
- tw1984 10mo agoa model is not software, it is a bunch of weights. you are more than welcomed to pick whatever model or software you choose to trust, that is totally fine. However, that is vastly different from bad mouthing a model or software just because its release note contains a single sentence you don't like.
- LoganDark 10mo agoThe API is software. You don't get the weights.
- logicprog 10mo agoThe weights are open.

- LoganDark 10mo agoHuh, I couldn't find that in the article when I posted my comment. I checked again now and it's there.
- pembrook 10mo agoIt’s called bikeshedding and yes it’s a cultural thing on HN. [1] Most people here are big company worker bees where they take zero risks and do very little of substance. In these organizations, it’s common for large groups of people to get together in “meetings” and endlessly nitpick surface-level details of unimportant things while completely missing the big picture because it’s far too complex to allow for easy opinions or smart-sounding critique.

- jondwillis 10mo agoIt’s the first thing in this press release. Start with garbage? I’m going to assume it’s all garbage.
- tw1984 10mo agoyou are more than welcomed to call it garbage or whatever else you like. they will just catch up fast and eat your lunch in 6-12 months time. btw, full weights are now available for download.
- jondwillis 10mo agoI’m not even sitting at the table. I’m a spectator. What’s your argument/allegiance here? The original article is hyped-up drivel. The model could be amazing and that’s still the case.
