The nice thing about Studio Display is that it's exactly 2X the resolution of 1440p, so that resolution works very nicely on it. Definitely want to give GFN a shot too though, thanks for the recommendation.

The library of games suck on Mac, but I realized my backlog has gotten so huge that I will still never run out of games that run well on there. I've got BG3 in my backlog, but I figure I'll wait until I get a new machine in a few

I used to do this too, now I mostly just game on Apple hardware or on Switch, which feels like the logical progression of what I was going for with less fuss.

I personally game a bit but I spend more time these days experimenting with deep learning so I would pay a premium for extra VRAM on my home machine.

Does it really? I keep thinking that they could just slap on 32G of VRAM on a midrange card and they would get roaring enthusiast support. I'm guessing the only reason they don't do that is to not encroach on their more expensive

I hate bullshit clickbait articles because they train everyone to skip the article and read the comments, which makes discourse worse and everyone dumber.

what quant are you running for that rig? i've been running q4, not sure if I can bump that up to q5 across the board (or if it's worth it in general)

That's like asking about the job market for hammers.

That's interesting, thanks for the context. I think it takes a unique kind of arrogance to self-diagnose medical problems w/ no knowledge or understanding of what you are talking about, and while I love this country I think that a

You are proving my point talking about the percentage of deaths caused by medical errors. If you had 100,000 people receive medical care, 10 die, and 5 of them are due to medical errors, then sure, you could spin that as "50% of deaths

I’ll try anything once! Probably not the sleeping part, though, I elevate in the other direction because of heartburn…

Wut? Never heard of this. How are you increasing blood pressure on your head? Are you hanging upside down?

Stupid question: is their 7B model available? Is there public inference code that we could run? Or do they not usually release them along with these kinds of papers?

Watching people try to force Rust adoption everywhere over the last decade has been watching a car crash unfold at 0.00000001X speed.

To be fair, a lot of successful projects are an overengineered mess and lack any sort of clear structure. Kudos for trying something cool, this is a space a lot of people are interested in. Thanks for sharing it.

What would tip the scales to justify including an ad-blocker in Safari by default?

No. By the power vested in me, I hereby permit you to keep your project's name, and to point at this man and laugh at him.

I was confused as to why this hit the front page of hackernews, so I checked submitter history to see if it looked like astroturfing. Now I'm even more confused.

I mean if you're creepy about it, sure, but as long as you can pick up on social cues you can feel it out without rubbing anyone the wrong way.

I think curating an internet community that is open-minded and participates in good faith is extremely hard as well. Not sure which is harder.

So jealous! God I loved that machine. Used them a lot in libraries and always wanted to have my own.

I think so! That was one of the magazines I was subscribed to. And ohhhhh my god I forgot about All in Wonder. I definitely had one of those at some point.

I remember full page ads for this card featuring deus ex in my gaming magazines. I wanted one so bad. I think I had an ATI card at the time.

This has to be super common. My wife and I both are acutely aware of acid reflux causing flutters and other weirdness. During her pregnancy it got worse, and after a full cardiac workup her doctor's best guess was interaction w/ t

Oh that’s interesting to know! I guess I gel better with bottom up. As soon as I start seeing API functions I don’t understand I immediately want to know how they work!

For sure! In both cases I imagine it is a conscious choice where the teachers thought about the trade-offs of each option. Both have their merits. Whenever you write learning material you have to decide where to draw the line of how far you

But I mean people can always rent GPUs too. And they're getting pretty ubiquitous as we ramp up from the AI hype craze, I am just an IT monkey at the moment and even I have on-demand access to a server with something like 4x192GB GPUs
