Yeah, but it can be a bit of a tight squeeze if you don't have at least 24gb (preferably 32gb+) of memory. Especially if you want other apps to run at the same time, I think it's safer to stick with something more like 9b. You can

Nice game! We made a similar game several years ago for the Pyweek game competition, but there wasn't the fun "letter invaders" style that this one has. https://pyweek.org/e/RegExExpress/ I really l

I agree with you. It might not be "swatting" in the crank call sense, but it definitely feels like malicious lying (on the part of _someone_) to harass or cause injury through police action. So yeah, definitely feels like swatting

A judge reviewed the evidence and signed the warrant. It's not like the cops just took what the witness said and ran with it.

I'm amazed at the number of people who are answering "this is just the way that it is in America". I don't live in Adams County, but they are our direct neighbors here in rural southwest Ohio. We like Afroman over here.

Trigger warning: very stupid question to follow. To my smooth-brain naiveté, this feels like the sort of thing that we could reward with some sort of cryptocurrency in a blockchain? It's difficult to achieve gains, but it's relati

I appreciate this being added to the guidelines. That said, I also wouldn't hate seeing an official playground where it is cordoned / appreciated for bots to operate. I.E., like Moltbook, but for HN...? I realize this could be don

I never played it, but from what I've heard, it sounds like the original Star Wars: Galaxies MMO (before they added all the NGE stuff?) had fairly mundane / commoner roles as well. It sounds like a fan-driven reboot of this game h

Oh this is really cool! Reminds me of ggwave [0]. It feels difficult to create hobbyist peripherals that interface with ones' phone -- trying to get cross-platform credentials to plug your own Arduino in via USB or connect via Bluetoot

I've been tinkering with the same thing -- wanting to set up a little server so that we can all play together as a family. We've enjoyed Diablo 2, Minecraft, and Terraria as a family, but I feel like it would be fun to set up a li

How well would you say it worked? I do like the idea of taking my historical forum posts and e-mails and whatnot and training an autocomplete LLM that is specifically "my voice".

One of the big dividers that I see between the "haves" and the "have-nots" is the ability to afford legal representation in civil cases. For criminal cases, there are public defenders, but for civil cases, I don't b

Oh nice. Super good clarification, I appreciate the correction -- thank you! Here's holding out hope that we'll still be able to see an M5 Ultra then! :)

by HanClinto 7mo ago
Yes, but the M3 was used in the Mac Studio as well as the Macbook Air, wasn't it? The 128gb limitation feels like it's portrayed as a limitation of the M5 chip itself -- not just of the Macbook Air product line.

by HanClinto 7mo ago
Is it weird to anyone else that the M5 keeps the same limitations of the M4, and tops out at 128 GB of RAM? If one wants to serve large-ish LLMs locally, an M3 Mac Studio w/ 512 GB/RAM is still a super compelling option, and I was

If you don't mind a stupid question, is this essentially dynamic quantization? I'm trying to understand how this is different from using a regular quantized model to squeeze more parameters into less RAM.

Great points. Valve is one of my top favorite companies right now. Love the work they're doing, and their products are amazing. Can hardly wait for the Steam Frame.

This is what Sourceforge did too, and they still had the DevShare adware thing didn't they? GitHub is great -- huge fan. To some degree they "sold out" to Microsoft and things could have gone more south, but thankfully Micros

Hosting model weights for projects like this I think is something that you could upload to a space in Hugging Face? What services would you need that Hugging Face doesn't provide?
