Will Llama 2 also work as a drop-in in existing tools like llama.cpp, or does it require different / updated tools?

Where did you get the 20 year old data from in that case? Actual paper in drawers, a directory of all invoices on disk, or some other database?

I think "view of our distant past" would have perhaps expressed the idea the best in a less clickbaity way

I'll byte: complex numbers and matrix support is bad in languages without operator overloading. Why should only the primitive types of the language be privileged to proper math notation?

So even encryption encourages planned obsolescence!

If gravity is not quantized, would that not mean that it has infinite information (the accuracy to represent its values to infinite digits of precision), and thus cause a black hole due to such high information density?

For Symmetric encryption, it says: 'Current key size: 112 bits' However the 3 linked examples, AES, ChaCha20 and Camellia all use a key size of at least 128 bits, with 192 or 256 bits also listed as options. What does this current

This system may create weird incentives though. Say I make an indie game to sell on steam, earning a meager but acceptable income from it, and I want to provide it 15 years of patches and updates (not unseen in indie games). Does updating i

That's really cool! But perhaps this should be made discoverable by e.g. showing the tokens or just a list of different search options somehow (right clicking the address bar, or a small button on it you can press, ...) BTW something I

I of course wouldn't want to store my data in there today, I wouldn't even trust that I get it back reliably because DNA reading comes with a relatively big error rate for storage purposes (of course error correction can mitigate

Some number I found online, while trying to multiply the 30 trillion human cells with the data storage of DNA per cell: "one gram of dried DNA can store 455 exabytes of data" Seems like a pretty sweet use case to me! I definitely

Given that we have a simulator of this worm right there (which includes it moving), can it really be up to debate whether it uses action potentials or not? I'd think the simulation has to get it right, and so needs to simulate action p

Also, once they have decent consumer ML support, they could release a card that has a merely OK-ish GPU, but double the memory of nvidia counterparts (e.g. 32 or 48 GiB, or find some way to allow you to plug in your own memory), and it&#x27

Why did they wait so long? No decent ML support makes their consumer cards so much less attractive, it's crazy

Automatic style formatters solve a lot of this discussion. Not all, such as the naming example here, but at least things like whitespace and line wrapping never have to be a discussion point again if you have the rule that whatever the styl

I built a new PC with AMD Zen 4 CPU end of last year, after using Intel for more than 10 years before that (last AMD I used before was an Athlon in the early 2000s! Intel Core 2 made me switch back to Intel then) I also use Linux exclusivel

Many of my fun memories of Factorio do involve biters though, both defending against them, and attacking them by building power lines and quickly building and then un-building laser towers near their bases (and later just by having super st

Wow how did they build so many 3D models in just 5 months, that's amazing talent, perhaps 3D modeling tools are also just really good now?

It's a bit unclear from this post: is this a locally running LLM or in the cloud and if so whose servers? Does it use an existing service like openai or a completely new model specific to wolfram?

Not by that much, look at a phone battery soldered to a phone PCB today, it'll fit in most form factors. If there are a couple of different standardized sizes, it could fit anything, and also allow combinations of multiple. Look at PC

What a shame that there's no standardized battery format (similar to AA, AAA etc..., but thin like for in phones) so that at least the batteries of those unused phones could be re-used elsewhere or replaced if the battery is EOL. But t

Does this fully close a long-known problem, or is there now the next problem of finding the tenth Dedekind number D(10)?

I mean, probably nobody looks at whether a stick to measure the oil level is integrated in the oil cap either, but it's still there fortunately (or do you need an app for that too these days?)
