LosslessCut is great, but I've had issues with the final export like timing being off, having cut sequence etc. I think it is very particular about encoding/container. Shotcut is my default video editor, if anyone's trying it

HF CEO keeps posting about how great local models are running in his Mac, it would be funny to see if he replaces his MacBook with a 500W Nvidia laptop after the deal gets through. But more importantly for business, if HF fails to use the u

At this point manufacturers should just open-source their firmwares as there's no barrier for entry to reverse engineer it. They will instead gain from army of end-users willing to put their time and tokens into fixing their bugs for f

After 3 years of running local models I think the model which fits unquantized (BF16) in the VRAM is the best model for general purpose tasks; fine-tuned SLMs or utilities based on non language models for solving a specific problem (e.g. TT

One of the main features of Logi Options + is the plugins which this application doesn't seem to support; you can load it locally or from their marketplace[1]. I myself have an accessibility related plugin to make clicking easier [2] b

That explains, yeah 200% would be just integer scaling. I'm on Wayland only.

In my laptop 200% fractional scaling of the built-in QHD+ OLED display on KDE Plasma is great, but when I connect my portable 1080p displays or e-paper monitor (UXGA) the fractional scaling of it is not as good as when compared to when the

Perhaps it's subjective, I have multiple portable displays including a e-paper monitor and I find that for low resolutions the HiDPI in the macOS produces more legible text in those monitors.

Any improvements with fractional scaling? Can anyone please link to any material reg the work being done for improving fractional scaling in Linux; it would be great if it could match the rendering quality of macOS.

This is a great suggestion, use complex hard stuff for doing fun stuff.

I agree, sounds like it will be just a vanity and won't solve any real problem. I appreciate the comment.

I appreciate the comment. It's like jobseekers want OkCupid for jobs but the employers are not really interested in such a thing.

Can you tell us what why "OkCupid for jobs" failed? I run a problem validation platform and 'OkCupid for jobs'[1] is consistently the most visited need-gap in the platform. Congratulations on 15 years of Recurse Center!

Thanks, I will give it a shot.

For me none of the models have managed to accurately replicate any given .png/.jpg image in SVG. I guess that requires both vision encoders and coding layers to work perfectly.

AFAIK Hyperscript doesn't require `unsafe-eval`, when the optional features of htmx like `hx-on:*`, `hx-vals js:`, `hx-confirm js:` is used it required the `unsafe-eval` but now there's extension[1] to use even that without compro

Actually even with a strict CSP i.e. without unsafe-inline, hyperscript will work as it's declared as html attributes. But as the other commenters have pointed out, with proper server validation in place the risk from Hyperscript is no

I'm bit sad that hyperscript[1] doesn't get the love it deserves when discussing HTMX. Hyperscript fits perfectly in the Go + HTMX stack to do DOM manipulation without having to make a server round trip or having to write a separa

True, I've been telling that coding LLMs have been detrimental to local AI scene. What happened to those nifty ML projects which can run on raspberry pi zero.

Personal curriculum is a positive trend[1] IMO. When you're forced to use AI instead of the skills you've put decades learning; it's time to learn new skills to keep the brain from becoming mushy. I think dense personal curr

I'm more interested in running distributed inference for purpose built small language models than these coding LLMs. Say a distributed inference for image processing, SDR, local weather monitoring etc. These will run on mediocre specs

by Abishek_Muthian 3mo ago
Even though LLM benchmarks are very opinionated, I would really like to see some numbers for the setup parent suggested. From what I read elsewhere, anything below $40K in HW costs is not worth the effort for coding models locally.

This is great, I'm working on a project called AccessPath for detailed accessibility review of a place. Currently the prototype[1] is using Google Maps but I will be moving on to OpenStreet Maps for obvious reasons. Thanks to you folks

Very interesting. Can the Street Complete be used to improve accessibility of a region, say to mark the availability of a ramp?

OpenWrt is a great piece of software(firmware) to prevent ISPs selling your browsing data to the advertisers. Although by now most ISPs are probably doing packet inspection. It's easy to customize, I have a script to notify me when a n
