It's just a skin. Of course it uses more resources than windows 7.

Nothing changed. You can still code the old way. All those 100x productivity gains are probably closer to 10% productivity gains after you account for all the added debugging and steering.

You can't have good performance without good DevX. There's a reason why we get a new python dsl for nvidia GPUs every week.

Well the cheapest crap fans are almost free, Noctua fans are certainly not free. So the added cost is the entire price of a Noctua fan.

Because someone might argue blender is taking funding from an entity that wants to make proficient blender users obsolete.

I want this in the classic F-77W or F-91W shell. Has this been already done neatly?

I guess it's the classic case of one not being able to outrun a bad diet. If fueling during the activity stops you from overeating afterwards and possibly allows you to exercise a bit longer it is worth it, even though it seems counter

Also it's not just about running an obviously worse quant. Running different GPU kernels / inference engines also matters. It's easy to write an implementation that is faster and thus cheaper but numerically much noisier

the point is the humidity. hot saunas need to be relatively dry otherwise your sweat won't evaporate.

There are different kinds of saunas. Nobody gets into a 90c humid sauna, that would just kill you.

That's just the new normal. Everyone is doing AI assisted work, but that doesn't mean the work goes away. Someone still has to put in meaningful effort to get the AI to do it and ship it.

True. After all Nvidia hasn't built tensorflow or PyTorch. That stuff was bound to be built on the first somewhat viable platform. Rocm is probably far ahead of where cuda was back then, but the goal moved.

sure, but what makes it ClubMate instead of just Mate Tea? Either way, thanks for the recipe. I might try that.

Aren't mac minis flying for "local models" because people have no clue what they are doing? All those people who bought them for openclaw just bought them because it was the trendy thing to do. No one of those people is runni

I don't buy that story. NVIDIA wasn't that huge of a company when they built CUDA, they weren't huge when the first GPT model was trained with it.

Sure, but it's like Pepakura. And that's a valuable piece of information for people who don't run MacOS.

It's not even hard, just slow. You could do that on a single cheap server (compared to a rack full of GPUs). Run a CPU llm inference engine and limit it to a single thread.

It is of course prohibited in many jurisdictions. it's just not enforceable.

I guess the more likely option is the auditing industry will pay huge sums to get access to those models as vetted operators.

Balatro ships with the entire unobfuscated Lua source by the way. I once checked if the odds stated on a card were implemented wrong. Turns out no, the code checks out, I'm just that unlucky.
