I agree! It might even be an issue on my side, where I'm exposed to AI generated stuff that often that everything starts looking like a trope when it's not. Either way, I've seen more than enough in this comment section to ma

The mismatch between how great Bunny is giving away free DNS, and the actual reality that I can't open an account and get free DNS from them is jarring and verging on dishonest. Saying stuff is free when it's not in the small prin

The 1 dollar thing, I think, looks exceptionally bad because it shows that what Bunny says can't be taken at face value. The fact is we're here because they posted a blog talking about how great they are making DNS free "beca

Your first sentence is the proof that CORS is a bad solution. HN is supposed to be full of people who need to know, use and depend on CORS and CSP. We might all just be idiots, but we're the idiots who are supposed to use this tool, an

I feel the same. Unfortunately, I've had to deal with CORS in a few situations where the request is "we need to get this thing from this server, but we can't change the servers CORS or CSP", which, in technical security

I don't think it's a made up idea that immigration is a problem, some people clearly, definitely consider it a problem, and it can cause problems. But it's a problem that's been heavily worked on recently and has had a l

The most likely candidates are places like Bradford and Birmingham, which are still - according to wikipedia - 60%+ white british, that's without even considering british asian or other people born in and native to the UK. Again, sorry

As a brit, I can confirm I am not at all fed up with immigration. Your comment is unnecessary, unsubstantiated, doesn't add anything to the discussion and is just going to cause arguments in its current form.

I agree, a comparison and distinction is helpful, maybe even necessary. But I felt the author's bias came across a bit too strong in places and was a little distracting. Still interesting stuff though!

Fair comment, it wasn't my intent to insult - I can completely see how it could come across as a lot more personally and insulting than I intended - sorry Tezza. I hope it's understood my frustration is not at the person or conten

This is slop, in the sense that it looks like a lot of useful work and effort, and AI is heavily involved, and it was offered up when the opposite was requested, meaning it's not at all helpful in this context. I raised this in a harsh

I disagree. I wouldn't consider it unhinged. I'm clearly aware of my own frustration. It's also relatively civil, since I was able to temper it with appropriate apologies and acknowledgements. Many other people agree and supp

So we agree on what their job is, but you're saying that if their job becomes impossible, they should quit, and I agree. Do you think the author of the original article should have quit, rather than tried?

Yup, confirming what pamcake said, 30b with 3b active. I have a laptop with a broken screen and an RTX2060 at my disposal. I can run 12b - 14b dense usably, just, although I think 4b - 8b dense models give me the best tradeoff of speed and
