The Gemma 3 models are great! One of the few models that can write Norwegian decently, and the instruction following is in my opinion good for most cases. I do however have some issues that might be related to censorship that I hope will be

No, cause thats just one of the features. Images are often at different resolutions too, that way, depending on the pixel density of the device, and the physical size, the browser can select the photo that has high enough resolution, but no

I had planned a trip that included the US for this summer, but the fact that they can demand the password for my devices is the main reason im not going. Having to wipe devices before travel and having to download data again because people

No technical dependencies on non-EU infrastructure seems very unlikely. Does the EU edition not rely on the same software that American AWS owns? Isn't it owned by AWS?

I dont like the wealth tax, but your numbers are not accurate. There is a discount and deductions on the wealth tax, but after the last election the discount has been reduced drastically. It's not normally a very large issue, but I rea

Well, that very much depends on your definition of slow, doesn't it? An additional request is another round trip. That can be very slow. Average TTFB on the internet in the US is ~0.7 seconds. It's much faster to send it as part o

It does not have to be a programming language on the server, no, unless you want to. The server can have a static site, that you build as you deploy it. Fetching another resource is expensive. It's another round trip, and depending on

Then you just pre-build the page before publishing it. It's way cheaper as you do the work once, instead of every client being much slower because they have to do additional requests.

24 GB of VRAM is a large amount of VRAM on a consumer GPU, that I totally agree with you on. But it's definitely not an extremely high end GPU these days. It is suitable, yes, but not high end. The high end alternative for a consumer G

3090s are no longer produced, that's why new ones are so expensive. At least here, used 3090s are around €650, and a RTX 5070 is around €625. It's definitely not extremely high end any more, the price is(at least here) the same as

by NorwegianDude 1y ago
A 3090 is not a extremely high end GPU. Is a consumer GPU launched in 2020, and even in price and compute it's around a mid-range consumer GPU these days. The high end consumer card from Nvidia is the RTX 5090, and the professional ver

You don't have to buy the hardware. It's very common to rent it.

When using colocation, nothing is stopping people from storing the database data externally from the server running the database like some cloud services do. But doing so, either in cloud or not, does have a serious downside: greatly increa

What do you mean you miss it? What is stopping you from doing exactly that now? Plug it in, drag down the drop-down and make you phone identify as storage. Then you can copy video off it while moving music onto it, if that is what you want.

Yes. Yes it is. I guess this person has the same stance Vercel now has. Even Next.js docs can make up their mind of whether you should or should not do it. They reccomended it until yesteray, but then another major securityflaw was discover

It's always interesting how it affects how people think about the day. If you look outside and it's dark then it's easy to think that the day is basically over, even though the time might say otherwise. I really appreciate th

I've done a lot of site optimization on high traffic sites, and in many situations you should serve resources from the same server to reduce latency and the overhead of additional connections. This does of course depend on a few things

So now the TOPS are not comparable because M3 is much slower than an Nvidia GPU? That's not how comparisons work. My numbers are correct, the M3 Ultra has around 1 % of the TOPS performance of a RTX 5090. Comparing against the GPU woul

by NorwegianDude 2y ago
I'm not confused at all. It's the real numbers. Feel free to provide anything that suggests that the TOPS of the GPU in M chips are faster than the dedicated hardware for it. But you can't, cause it's not true. If you th

True. But an AI shop doesn't care about that. They get more performance for the money by going for multiple Nvidia GPUs. I have 512 GB ram on my PC too with 8 memory channels, but it's not like it's usable for AI workloads. I

No, I'm not. I'm comparing the TOPS of the M3 Ultra and the tensor cores of the RTX 5090. If not, what is the TOPS of the GPU, and why isn't apple talking about it if there is more performance hidden somewhere? Apple states 1

Not much to figure out. It's 2x M4 Max, so you need 100 of these to match the TOPS of even a single consumer card like the RTX 5090.

by NorwegianDude 2y ago
The memory amount is fantastic, memory bandwidth is half decent(~800 GB/s), and the compute capabilities are terrible(36 TOPS). For comparison, a single consumer card like the RTX 5090 is only 32 GB of memory, has 1792 GB/s memory

Considering how many people are using cases and even wallet cases, probably very many people. The case/wallet can be attached to the phone as a replacement to the normal backplate, making it much less bulky, just as Samsung did forever

Personally I think that even if you don't know everything, just make clear what you are certain and uncertain about. You probably know a lot, and what you write is still good as long as you don't spread misinformation. I have issu

Having the option to walk doesn't mean that you can't drive. One can have both. Nice weather to walk in? Maybe I'll walk the 10 minutes to the shopping center. Raining a lot? Take the car.
