Maybe they'll be cute though. Like Grogu.

Old dystopias were too neat. Even the evil systems had a plan. Reality is messier and more absurd. Maybe aliens are the only thing left that's still safely fictional.

A Chinese example of this for me is Jin Yong, probably the most influential wuxia (Chinese martial-arts fiction) novelist in the Chinese-speaking world. His books are popular fiction in the most literal sense: enormously entertaining, widel

I was only using a single DGX Spark, and this was earlier in the year, so I was running some pretty aggressively quantized models — probably in the 1–3 bit range. My main issue at the time was that my financial data had lots of messy notes,

I did try some finance analysis earlier this year. I was using a DGX Spark, so I could run some relatively large models, but the results were pretty mixed at the time. I honestly can't remember which models I used anymore. Might be wor

That's interesting since both models are dense. I wonder if this is more of an optimization issue with 3.8 rather than something inherent to the architecture.

I mostly use local models when the data has personal information. Earlier this year, I felt the coding quality was still not as good as Claude Code. One thing that works for me is to ask the local model to make some fake data with the same

Baking is a good metaphor, though lately it also feels a bit like making liquor. Distillation is a surprisingly important part of training.

I saw this announcement when it came out and completely forgot about it. That explains why Claude Code felt so surprisingly generous these past few months.

I once spent two days on a pr and got an obviously AI generated review that contradicted what we agreed one before. So I had AI respond to it. The next day he asked if I'd used AI. I used the same justification he'd used for his r

The NVIDIA+AMD support is the part I find really interesting. I know OpenMP and SYCL can already target multiple GPU vendors, but doing this while keeping Rust's safety model seems pretty compelling. I'm curious how portable the p

I learned this. I had what I thought was a pretty good lock, but the chain was cut very clean. The cut was almost perfect flat, so I assume they used a power tool.

I think solitude is great. The hard part is finding the right people to talk to. I'm not sure if this is a Silicon Valley thing, but I've met some people who use a lot of jargon in a way that feels partly about status. At first I
